Money is root of world's problems

Just “follow the money!” That advice was given to journalists Bernstein and Woodward, who tracked down Nixon’s scandal decades ago.

The banking moguls using our government are making a desperate effort to extract every single penny out of Americans to pay their own bills, using the letter of our laws. Meanwhile, Western Europe is sprouting Nazi groups like mushrooms in reaction to their own economic collapse caused by the European Union, a luxury because they never paid for their own military bases. We did.

China has surpassed our country as the primary economic force in the world. We held that position for a century, but it changed the other day. Are there consequences? The result of debt is extortion by federal government on citizens, growing exponentially. Your Chinese toothbrush may break in your mouth, but you’ll still have to pay for it.

Any politician who doesn’t address the Chinese involvement and usurpation of federal lands and defaulted properties, instituted by liberals like former Rep. Barney Frank and Sen. Chris Dodd should be removed. The Chinese are being paid back for a trillion dollars the government owes, so international banks and corporations too large to fail, don’t fail.

This is the real link to the abuse we face from Washington about their need for austerity. Austerity should begin with our corporations in China. We have over a thousand residing in China. No Americans are hired. Unless corrected, the label “Made in the USA” will soon become “Mad in the USA”! —Mike Donohue, Kalispell
