Money As Debt

By the way does this G. Edward Griffin guy has an economic qualification? According to Wikipedia he may have not.

i don’t think he holds a degree in economics, but he’s a smart guy, and the Mises Institute economists occasionally drop his name…in a good way. His major work - the creature from Jekyll Island is a great look at the Federal Reserve and our monetary system. I’ve read the link you posted before, and don’t remember seeing anything that made me say that he’s wrong about anything.

I haven’t read his whole book, just listened to the shortened YouTube version (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lu_VqX6J93k) but it was a year ago. He made some good point but it wasn’t goundbreaking. OK, he talks about the FED, but the world works as a net of interconnected independent nation states. Who talks about that?

By the way isn’t he a conspiracy theorist? Just looking through the topics of his web site (http://www.freedomforceinternational.org/). Anyways, I plan to listen to his Jekyll Island work again, will report back! And he has another quite popular work: World Without Cancer: The Story of Vitamin B17.

Strangest byline, ever! :smiley:

I read Edward Griffin’s response to Paul Grignon. But in fact you could reject his claim in just a few words (see my above comment).

By the way, you should have a look at this video.

Victoria Grant, a 12-years old canadian girl speaks about the money-debt. Of course, she’s wrong. Anyway I have the feeling that what she has said is someone else’s words.

Interview with Victoria Grant. Funny.

Thanks, I’ll look into Victoria Grant later!

Actually Paul Grignon advocates this:

But it’s just seems too complicated to me.
