Here are some more comments from that ZeroHedge page.
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2014-10-31/martin-armstrong-what-point-does-revolution-take-place#comment-5399115One good place to start is OUTLAW negative advertising.
Wow! Gotta love Armstrong's idea of a "revolution". Let's use a government entity to suppress free speech. As awful as mud-slinging dirty campaining is, it is still constituted as free speech. Why is this garbage posted on a libertarian leaning site? Absolutely dreadful.
I would take a totally asleep America over some of these dreadful ideas posted as "solutions" anyday.
Yeah booboo, Armstrong calls for a "revolution", yet under his proposal the very same politicians he distrusts are now going to regulate what a fair campaign ad is, and if a campaign ad isn't good enough the candidate faces PRISON TIME??? What the heck is this doing on zero hedge / fight club??? The incumbents would remain in power forever under such a scheme because any possible opponent would be thrown in a government cage.
I would expect to see this crap on Foreign Affairs, Faux News or the Washington Post, not on a libertarian website.
I am always wondering about Armstrong's true intentions because I also notice he tries to deflect all blame away from the
banksters who are colluding and doing creative destruction to bring about a NWO. And also Armstrong is always promoting implausible "solutions" that require us to reform government globally, which is of course can not be done without some sort of massive uprising and NWO result. He knows damn well that we can't reform the government without first collapsing the socialism, because the politics are dictated by the fact that the boomers will not agree to live in trailer parks and eat oatmeal and Chef Boyardee canned Ravioli instead of their current more lavish lifestyles.
http://armstrongeconomics.com/2014/12/27/belarus-imposes-price-controls-as-ruble-falls/We can deal with this coming trend in two ways. First, you can just hide your head in the sand and pretend it will not happen. Second, we can understand its cause and then address the real problem corruption in government with structural reforms. The more people who we can win over to understanding the nature of the beast, the greater the chances of rising from the ashes.

Once again Armstrong is promoting (non-)"solutions" that
require global, centralized governance.
http://armstrongeconomics.com/2014/12/28/understanding-big-bang-2015-75/Some government is necessary and can benefit society. Yet 100% government control leads to economic collapse for government cannot plan and direct an economy from a central detached position. Consequently, the manner in which the derivatives have been implemented on an ad-hoc basis absent a central clearing-house presents the greatest of all dangers not the mere fact that derivatives exist at all since they are perhaps the oldest financial contract of all extending back to Babylonian times. However, everything cannot be transformed into a derivative absent a central clearing house for that leads to chaos and corruption no different than the broken-banknote era that resulted in the Panic of 1837.
The problem with derivatives lies in the decentralization of their market makers and as such, there is no manner in which anyone can really gauge or actually judge the true risk and rewards. Since banks create derivatives on their books and such contracts are not fungible, if the bank becomes exposed to risks it did not anticipate, they run with their hands out to government for a bailout every single time.
Marty is addressing only a symptom. Instead the real solution is to attack the generative essence of the problem that taxation is not optional thus the banksters can use the government's Max Weber monopoly on force to expropriate capital from the public. No need to monitor the derivatives with a central clearing house, when we can make it impossible for the banksters to run to the government for a bailout as follows.
Thus solving the generative essence is about providing an anonymous internet and anonymous decentralized crypto-currency so that the fledgling Knowledge Age can escape from the ball-and-chain which is government and its requisite corruption due to the
THE IRON LAW of Political Economics[1].
So then the limited government we desire is enforceable by our individual power to opt out of taxation fuck rights we don't need rights we need actual individually sovereign power!
The generative essence solution is decentralization, not the global, centralized NWO bullshit that Martin Armstrong is preaching.
