Defending Our Economic Interests

Class Warfare:


We Demand The Head of The Federal Reserve!
step down from his post.  To be clear, we mean this only in a strictly figurative, absolutely nonviolent sense of these words.


"The Federal Reserve's policies are systematically looting 
the country to enrich one-tenth of one percent of the population."

There is a lot not to like about this video.  The repetition of "The Federal Reserve..." at the beginning of seemingly every statement makes the 4:30ish long video seem a lot longer and the fact that Rebecca Black's "Friday" most likely got more views in 10 minutes than this has since it was uploaded concerns me that very few people will ever see this material.

However, repetition aside, I do believe the person that produced this video states the case against the Fed very well.  Based on what I have read, and what the well read people I am lucky enough to be able to associate myself with understand, the claims about the actions of the Federal Reserve presented in this video are accurate.  

Media Coverage:

The Washington Post has already run a brief blurb on this, which you can check out here.
Forbes ran a brief blurb on this, which is online here.
Time ran a piece on this, which is online here.


Also, you can follow this on the Twitter using #opesr, if you're into that kinda thing.
