The media would have us believe all the violence in the abortion debate comes from the pro-life side. They conveniently neglect to show you a few things.

I have know pro-life activists who were threatened and? was even threatened myself. If you would like I could send you a list of sources on violence against pro-lifers.
This is not made up ... By: jkgjihghb. on 30 Mar 12, 08:41:42 This is not made up, and that is you do not have your facts straight! Now yes I have told the truth about this, and that is all of the facts are on the side of? the pro-lifers, which you want to conveniently distort! Get this straight what you have heard in the so called mainstream media will tell that you do not have your facts straight, because you know what's being said is just a blatant smear against the pro-lifers, and you know it's true!
LOL at your ''facts ... By: Primordialfan1. on 30 Mar 12, 08:36:05 LOL at your ''facts''?
Now you know full ... By: jkgjihghb. on 30 Mar 12, 08:10:34 Now you know full well that when? one incident happens the media is just blow the entire incident out of proportion, and yes you know it's the truth, because all they ever do is have the exact same story shown over, and over again! Yes it is true, because they always make it look like it's always happening, and you know it! Now stop lying about some Christian terrorist, because it's not true, because it's a fact that the violence against the pro-lifers out weighs that of the pro-aborts fact!
Sensationalised? ... By: Primordialfan1. on 30 Mar 12, 07:34:00 Sensationalised? Christian terrorist? takes gun and kills doctor. Christian terrorist builds bomb and blows up building. What the fuck is ''sensationalised'' about that?
You're lying about ... By: jkgjihghb. on 30 Mar 12, 02:05:30 You're lying about the clinic bombings, and shootings by Christians, because all of this is just sensationalized, and that's a fact! The truth is that the violence against the pro-abortion people very rare, because you're going on? only what's convenient, and yes it's true that the violence against the pro-life people heavily out weighs the violence against the pro-abortion people, and stop lying! So don't talk about what's conveniently ignored, because that's a lie!
You don't know what ... By: jkgjihghb. on 30 Mar 12, 01:57:28 You don't know what you are talking about when you say that the pro-life side only? cares about life until the child's born! Now I'll tell you that there people that have places set up for pregnant mothers to go, and yes they do provide all of the needs for the child so that when that child's born all of the needs will be taken care of! So yes I do know what I'm talking about, because they have local life saving centers, and you need to do research into what you're talking about!

I explain an aspect of inflation and supply and demand
One other thing I forgot to mention is that the increase in a supply of something would also decrease its value but not to the same extent.
They do that with ... By: MareSwiss. on 09 May 12, 15:17:02 They do that with unemploy some of their workers. This means less people have money to spend. And this is called a vicious circle^^ only? way to get out is if government spends a lot of money to buy stuff from the economy. With expanding the money supply and those subsidies you can transform the deflation back to a inflation.
You guys get one ... By: MareSwiss. on 09 May 12, 15:13:42 You guys get one thing wrong. Inflation isnt really a problem if it didnt rise too much. 1%-3% is pretty healthy for an economy. Deflation on the other hand can become very ugly. Deflation means that if you own today 1 dollar, tomorrow it will be worth per example 1.1 ( or just more than 1 dollar). That is a very bad incentive for the economy cause you will be better of if you delay your consumption for a day (or more).? The economy anticipates that and is going to slow down their production.
I still have a lot? ... By: BenjaminWirtz. on 15 Apr 11, 06:26:03 I still have a lot? to learn myself but yes deflation can also be a problem but inflation is generally more of an imminent problem and one that is pretty avoidable.
My main? point here ... By: jbranstetter04. on 15 Apr 11, 03:41:03 My main? point here is that as this wealth is created, we need a bigger money supply or there will be deflation. I'm no expert at all, so I'll have to read up on the dangers of deflation if there is a danger. If the opposite happens, where they print money when there is no wealth creation, then as you showed in your video, we will have inflation, which is not good.
I see your point ... By: BenjaminWirtz. on 14 Apr 11, 17:00:40 I see your point there. ?
I realize that your ... By: jbranstetter04. on 14 Apr 11, 16:14:14 I realize that your video was mainly about inflation, but here is an example of how a person creates wealth. If I invented a way of producing my own electricity then I would no longer have to buy it from the Electric Utility. I would have $250 each month of newly created wealth for myself, minus the 10 dollars I spend on upkeep for my invention. Imagine if I let everyone have rights to that invention. Massive wealth would be created in the? form of low cost production etc.
Yes I was going to ... By: BenjaminWirtz. on 14 Apr 11, 04:42:53 Yes I was going to bring that u about them not having all the money they say. It could cause a problem if there were a run on the bank. The? money that is made is not newly created it is always money transferred from one person to another, yes this is the sign that the economy is working, and my analogy is not perfect, but meant to demonstrate why the printing of money has such a great effect on inflation.
By charging fees ... By: jbranstetter04. on 14 Apr 11, 04:21:02 By charging fees for loans? Yes banks make there money by charging interest and fees. The person borrowing the money is paying for a service. Some people borrow money for a business and with it they make big profits. Without the bank they would not be able to do this. Money is created and the bank takes? some of it. Maybe you're talking about the fact that a bank loans out more money than it actually has. This is true, but it seems to work.
My point was to say ... By: BenjaminWirtz. on 14 Apr 11, 04:07:55 My point was to say the? the bank gets the money by charging loans. Therefore someone has to pay into it.
Money always ... By: jbranstetter04. on 14 Apr 11, 03:55:26 Money always represents wealth. If? there is more money created without more wealth being created, then the money is worth less. What exactly is your question?
Yes, you can invest ... By: BenjaminWirtz. on 14 Apr 11, 03:44:58 Yes, you can invest, but the money doesn't come out of? thin air, where do you think the bank gets the money from?
Yes if you just ... By: jbranstetter04. on 14 Apr 11, 03:40:59 Yes if you just print more money based on nothing, then you will have? inflation and your money units will be worth less. The thing is that the pie does grow, and a lot of its growth is because of money. Part of my wealth is in money. If I put it under the mattress, nothing happens. But if I put it in a bank, and then that bank loans it out to a person to build himself a house, then wealth is created by the economic activity. I still have my money in the bank and he has a house too.

Although Planned ... By: BenjaminWirtz. on 23 Mar 11, 04:01:17 Although Planned Parenthood says it provides all the information, if discourages ultrasounds. They have tried to circumvent the law by sending girls out of stet if their state doesn't allow for a specific abortion. I could send you sources but would have to do so in a private message. I actually agree with you on the? war. I actually think charities should be supported directly by the people not by the Government.
I don't make up the ... By: ShowMeNoHate. on 22 Mar 11, 23:49:05 I don't make up the non-profit rules, the gov't does. Non-profits are all businesses. That tiny food pantry in your city and Red Cross are all corporations, and non-profits. What's your "record" of deception or misrepresentation; cite specifics please. I pay taxes for U.S. WARS. I'm morally opposed to killing innocent people with missiles. Jesus has my back on this for sure. Private schools already have access to tax money if they're tax-exempt, they pay zero tax.?
What qualifies as ... By: BenjaminWirtz. on 22 Mar 11, 21:59:34 What qualifies as a? non-profit now? Planned Parenthood is a business. The big issue is that Planned Parenthood has a record of deception and misrepresentation. How many things do you pay taxes for that you are morally opposed to? As for things like public schools, first of all they are run by the Government, but I would like more access to private school. As for what Jesus would do, that is what charities are for, true non-profits that don't make money.
Many hospitals ... By: ShowMeNoHate. on 22 Mar 11, 18:54:38 Many hospitals across this country are tax-exempt too. They get federal and state dollars to help people get blood tests, cancer and heart screenings, etc. I don't go around suggesting we cancel their funding. Also elementary, high school and colleges all get federal and state funding, again I don't? think people should demand we defund them. My taxes go toward many things I personally don't use but I know other people could use the help. It's what Jesus said we should do, help others.
Planned Parenthood ... By: ShowMeNoHate. on 22 Mar 11, 18:50:42 Planned Parenthood is an non-profit like many organizations. They are tax-exempt because they prove to the government they are offering services to the public that the private sector doesn't. Planned Parenthood offeres WAY MORE services to women (and men) than just abortions. Cancer screenings, blood? STD tests, condoms, birth control etc. All of these offerings have been deemed a public service. If you don't want them, do go use them.
I don't know how to ... By: BenjaminWirtz. on 12 Mar 11, 00:10:00 I don't know how to do that, but I am talking pretty quietly here. You should? be able to hear if you turn up your volume.

Youtube recently extended their video lenght, this is a pretty boring video but it is to inform you of this and to test out how a long video works. This took almost an hour to upload, so I wouldn't advise making long videos too often unless you have the time to not only film them but to also upload them, unless you have a super uploader that upload super fast.
First of all yes I know it is a bit laggy. I use the Beatles song Let it be but change a few of the lyrics. This is just an early first take, I hope to improve it with better sound and video quality. Also the line about so and so coming to me can be changed to be several different people that fit the definition of Laissez-faire.

As I said Ben, you ... By: DerailAmnestydotcom. on 22 Oct 10, 17:30:44 As I said Ben, you seem to have found your candidate. You don't have to justify yourself to? me. When you say that Meg Whitman has parroted different stories to different audiences, you're absolutely right. If Chelene's well documented problem of often having difficulty distinguishing reality from nonsense doesn't strike you as a major problem for a chief executive, hey, she's a logical choice for you at the ballot box.
True, maybe ... By: BenjaminWirtz. on 22 Oct 10, 06:41:55 True, maybe abortion and gun rights aren't major issues in this campaign but maybe they should be, they are also both bad on the economic front. Meg's position on immigration only differs when? she is talking to a white English speaking audience. Hey, I never said I bought in to these conspiracy theories, I just said I don't make any judgement until I know all the facts, and it's better to be safe than sorry.
Abortion and gun ... By: DerailAmnestydotcom. on 22 Oct 10, 00:04:35 Abortion and gun rights are not close to being the "major issues" in this campaign. And regarding immigration, their positions? differ. Regarding the concerns you share with her about conspiracy theories, Ben, it seems like you've found your candidate.
Second, most ... By: BenjaminWirtz. on 21 Oct 10, 22:51:37 Second, most sensible people who don't believe the Government was responsible for 9/11 still have questions like why the FBI didn't release their lintel on the terrorist beforehand. Also, just because something is called a? Conspiracy theory does not make it necessarily not true, for many years the mafia was a conspiracy theory. In any case, believing something like these is far less dangerous than the plans Meg and Jerry have.
Yes Meg is using ... By: BenjaminWirtz. on 21 Oct 10, 22:48:56 Yes Meg is using her own money while Jerry uses unions' however the very fact that she has to spend so much more than Jerry Brown just to keep up says her money is all she has going for her. What about the major issues they are the same on those, immigration, abortion, gun rights.
As for Chelene being a conspiracy theorist, first of all? it is better to be paranoid than ignorant.
Here's the ... By: DerailAmnestydotcom. on 20 Oct 10, 21:36:57 Here's the difference between the two: Meg has lot more money than Jerry. Jerry has to get unions to spend millions of dollars to help him obtain office, whereas Meg can afford to pay for her own campaign.
Also, they both differ from Chelene Nightingale in that neither 1) went bankrupt a few years ago, 2) believe in "chemtrails" and 9/11 conspiracies, and 3) have accused? Barack Obama of being an illegal alien.

I explain the dangers of the lesser of two evils mentality when voting. It is a false dichotomy and very dangerous.
The lesser of two evils is stil evil.
If you are familiar with the NY 23 congressional race, there is an example of not allowing a bad precident to be set.
Does a great person get assassinated,or does being assassinated make one great? What about those who are great who died of natural causes? Just something about which to think.
