I laughed at this, more than I want to admit.

Thanks SoundMoneyCafe

That is a great one! Fitting as well and it does make me chuckle at how true it is. I especially liked, ‘We owe our sole to the red Chinese” I’m saving this link.

The original was sung coal miners,

Load two tons of coal …

…. we owe our soul to the company store.

A take off of a coal miner’s song

shovel two tons of coal and what do you get …

… owe your soul to the company store.

Serfdom has changed its form.

I sure hope the music for the cause of liberty that launched during the Ron Paul campaign continues. Those were exciting times! These are exciting times, and we are embarking on exciting times ahead!

I wonder, does Jeffrey Tucker ever sleep?

So nothing has really changed since “Sixteen Tons”: it’s the same old ruling class shafting the ignorant and the powerless. “New World”, my ass.

Speaking of the Federal Reserve, the abolition of which Ron Paul has been calling for almost daily in the last coupla months, I noticed this entry on Catherine Austin Fitts’ solari blog about Fox News interviewing Chris Powell from the Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee. A visitor commented: “The only reason Fox let him speak is because it’s time to get rid of the Federal Reserve and replace it with a global central bank and global currency. Anything to make the Federal Reserve look like a useless piece of garbage, to help buy majority opinion and make it go away — at all costs…” which I thought was interesting, altho the interview does not discuss the role or validity or future of the Fed at all.
