Eh... how about not basing it on debt...

It does mean that we and our children are born into and live our lives within a tremendous fraud, a massive financial trap... I'm buying gold and silver because they are freedom. How ironic.

This Is Not "the Big One"

The FED has an essentially infinite supply of paper. You will all be trillionaires before there is another "Big One".
