1) It is more than tax money that is going to the war. Via the unconstitutional Federal Reserve system, the value of the dollar in your pocket has been devalued 36% since the beginning of the wars in the middle east a few short years ago. The dollar index was 120 before the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The index was at an all time low of 76.4 today. A 36% drop in the buying power of that dollar in your pocket on the foreign exchange markets. The powerful few that profit from the war machine believe you are too stupid to realize that the value of your money is being transferred from the people, making the people poorer and causing them to work harder for less, even with higher wages that do not keep up with the debased currency.
2) Today, the Federal Reserve lowered interest rates, again, and the powerful few think you are still too stupid to realize what is going on.
3) Oil is $95 a barrel. An all time high.
4) Real money, gold, is at a multidecade high of $800 per ounce. The sharp rise in gold prices recently is indicative of deep financial problems. A warning indicator of a recession/depression.
This trend will continue as the war machine continues to build an empire overseas at the expense of the value of your money. Your salary may not change, but the amount of goods and services you will be able to purchase with your salary will be drastically reduced. This "inflation tax" has been eatting away at the value of your savings and eating away at your buying power. The Federal Reserve is devaluing the dollar "printing money" by creating money out of thin air and the American people are losing.
We must get this point across to everyone we meet.
Ron Paul is the only candidate with any credibility when it comes to actually putting an end to this "transfer of wealth" from us to those that profit from the $2.4 trillion war machine.
