Basic Solutions To Our Economic Problems That Establishment Elites Won’t Allow, by Brandon Smith

The basic solution to our economic problems would be if establishment elites would get the hell out of the way. From Brandon Smith at alt-market.us:

I think one of the great misconceptions about economic crisis is that solutions are always dependent on centralized government action. In truth, most financial disasters are actually caused by too much government action and involvement. Central banks like the Federal Reserve are also primary culprits; as I outlined in last week’s article their machinations, which are independent of government oversight, fall into the category of deliberate sabotage. The Fed bankrolls corruption through fiat money creation while government officials and corporations utilize that money to wreak havoc on our living standards.
