The "Dumbing down of America" is part of the necessary actions in order to become a "One World Society"
The same is true of "American Production" as the 3rd world countries are racing to catch up.
Nothing is more powerful that to experience "Religious Freedom" combined with "Ecconomic Freedom".
These two factors provide a fertile environment for amazing groth and productivity, as well as incredible new inventions.

The "Element" that we have had STOLEN is "Honest Money"  The power of the mega bankers who now "OWN" and hold title to everything, gained thru printing press money, the value of which they also control, has "Stolen" the ability for people to be honest in their business dealings thru no fault of their own.
Does the phrase "Not worth a Contential" mean anything to you?  It is no accident that America no longer leads, but has been tied down by beauracratic bs, a government that can not be held accountable for their actions, and the ability of the people of this nation or any other to make our leaders accountable for their actions.

To understand what is happening, one needs only look to understand the effects of "Counterfiting".
The first effecxt is "False prosperity" as the money flows freely.  The next effect is "Inflation" as we have increased the paper that represents the same amount of real Value.
We have an ever growing government that produces nothing, contributes nothing to the true value of goods, and yet continues to consume more and more of what the producing population creates.

Knowing this is not going to change anything.
How are we to protect our rights, when most know not what they are. 
We are in deep trouble. 
When the majority discover the truth, when those with the courage to expose the "Banker thieves" their house of cards will come tumbling down.

What is the solution?
Honest money based on a comodity of limited sum,
Accountablility of our public servants and representatives.
A free and honest media that is not controled by 5 people.
Wake up Amerika, The America we thought we had is no longer.
