Video of Uygur's Dangerous Constitutional Convention Announcement

The Daily Bell

VERBATIM POST

==========

As we pointed out in today's lead article, leftist commentator and 'Young Turk', Cenk Uygur, has come up with a dangerous new ploy to erode what's left of American freedoms under the guise of increasing "fairness" and equity for the savaged US middle class. He wants to have a US constitutional convention.

A constitutional convention could end up with results that are much different than what was expected. And this does not address the REAL problem that the US – and the West – face. The number one problem is the power elite's central banking and bankers' ability to print money from nothing. This causes tremendous euphorias and over time creates depressions. These are useful to the power elite, which wants to consolidate power on the way to creating world government.

Uygur doesn't deal with any of this. On his Wolf-PAC.com website, Uygur "explains" how corporate power has grown, starting "in 1978, [when] the Supreme Court began to allow corporate money to influence politics ... Corporate wealth and corporate power continues to grow unabated as the Supreme Court ruled last year in Citizens United v. FEC that corporations can now spend unlimited money in politics."

This is truly farcical. The problems that the West, and America in particular, face go back at least to the Civil War when states lost the right to secede and Leviathan began to expand aggressively until today it swallows up to 50 percent of a person's income in taxes and removes as much or more over time via central bank-induced price inflation.

The problems in the US have to do with a lack of FREEDOM, and this can be (and should be) remedied by fewer laws, by attacking a corrupt judiciary and especially by "ending the Fed," the central banking system itself.
