Dick Distlehorst and Robert Poteat — "Monetary Reform" on Community Currency - 10/07/10

Monetary Reform with monetary experts Dick Distlehorst and Robert Poteat, both are senior advisors to the American Monetary Institute which just held its 6th Annual AMI Monetary Reform Conference in Chicago.

Dick Distlehorst, is in his 90th year, his wife passed away six years ago. He was with the First Marine Division on Guadalcanal in the South Pacific during World War II. He first learned about our problematic, to say the least, monetary system in 1958 and has studied it and fought against it since that time. He has held meetings locally for over 10 years, and he spoke to the conference via video and gave a very powerful, inspiring speech and made suggestions to all of us on how to pressure Congress and educate our friends about money.

Robert Poteat has been studying and working on monetary reform since 1981. His education was electrical engineering. He worked in radio and television broadcasting, manufacturing, and elevator construction. Since his retirement, he has been active with Veterans for Peace as past president and media producer for VfP Chapter 109 in Olympia, WA. Representative Dennis Kucinich also spoke via video and said that he would be introducing a Monetary Reform bill in Congress in November. My report, entitled Money of, by, for the Corporations or Money of, by, for the People? and my presentation- Strategy for the Monetary Reform Movement, Stephen Zarlenga's opening remarks, and videos of the presentations of Professor Michael Hudson, Professor Yamaguchi, and Professor Steve Keen are posted online, along with a report by Keen at his www.debtdeflation.com website.

Michael Hudson — New $600B Fed Stimulus Fuels Fears of US Currency War

New $600B Fed Stimulus Fuels Fears of US Currency War– Michael Hudson

The Federal Reserve will pump $600 billion more into the US economy and keep interest rates at historical low levels. The short-term impact of the Fed’s move, known as quantitative easing, has been a jump in stock prices across the globe. Many nations, however, have accused the United States of waging a currency war by devaluing the dollar. We speak to former Wall Street economist and University of Missouri professor Michael Hudson. “The object of warfare is to take over a country’s land, raw materials and assets, and grab them,” Hudson says. “In the past, that used to be done militarily by invading them. But today you can do it financially simply by creating credit, which is what the Federal Reserve has done.” [read transcript here] See his website here. From A Democracy Now Presentation 11-5-2010.
