While we're very happy to have you in the Gulch and appreciate your wanting to fully engage, some things in the Gulch (e.g. voting, links in comments) are a
privilege, not a right. To get you up to speed as quickly as possible, we've provided two options for earning these privileges.
- You must reach a Gulch score of 100. You can earn points in the Gulch by posting content, commenting, or by other members voting up your posts.
- You may upgrade to a Galt's Gulch Producer membership to immediately gain these privileges.
Your current Gulch score:
Sorry to say it, but the rancher won nothing. This is simply a tactic used by the feds to defuse what would have been another Boston massacre. A fight that would have pitted the government against the American people - O isn't ready for that yet. Once everyone goes home, once things settle and the news camera's are looking elsewhere the feds will be back. WHERE IS OUR REPRESENTATION!
We are our representation.
Cheers.

"“We’re all bitches to the banks.”
Gubernatorial candidate David Lory VanDerBeek and state Assembly candidate Howard Scheff from Nevada’s Independent American Party held an afternoon rally in Las Vegas to show their support for Bundy.
“The state government is responsible for protecting Bundy’s individual rights,” VanDerBeek said.
But VanDerBeek was not advocating for a confrontation between militia men and federal agents. “They need to stop fighting each other,” he said, adding that there is a greater threat. “We’re all bitches to the banks.”
Fox news did refer to this, but it was not prominent. (I could not play the link because of internet problems at work.) Insofar as the BLM having good lawyers is concerned, the Pacific Legal Foundation and Institute of Justice also have good lawyers, and one of them may be delighted to take a case like this.

Interesting. That seems to be the exact same thing liberals complain about...
For example, here's an old article from Michael Moore that was written way back in 2008:

And here's another article from 2012:

A lot of people seem to think that Liberals and Conservatives oppose each other, and in many ways they do. But there are a lot of areas in which they agree as well. This is one of them.
Want to know the real problem behind the banks: it isn't the banks themselves but the Federal Reserve. Who underwrites inter-bank loans and determines the interest rates? The Fed. Who prints the money? The Fed. Who is buying up their own debt? The Fed. Who sets minimum balance percentages? Federal law. Who insures individual accounts? It isn't the banks themselves!
The problem isn't the banks themselves, but the regulation and nationalization of the banking infrastructure. If the banks were free to compete (and weren't allowed to sell derivative products to themselves), I think you'd see a lot of the so-called problems with the banking industry go away.
I agree with Jackson , “You are a den of vipers and thieves. I have determined to rout you out and, by the Eternal, I will rout you out!”
He also concluded that a vote for Obama was a solution.
When the 'liberals' actually start doing something that removes power from the banking cartel, then I will give them credit for something other than political posturing for their own agenda. Ditto for the 'conservatives.'
They both occasionally agree to say that banks are a problem, then they do nothing but exactly what their bankster masters tell them to do.
They are truly bitches to the banks, and they want us to be theirs.
Problem: To get the less-informed in all three groups to learn this information, and act to eliminate this evil from us. There is a way. but it comes through understanding how this tick has invaded us.
