Today is NOT the anniversary of the beginning of the American Civil War. It was Apr.12th. And the year was 1861 not 1860. I am a civil war reenactor, some things I do know. http://www.civilwar.org/150th-anniversary/this-day-in-the-civil-war.html?gclid=CK6VtPj-4aICFQQKbAodAg5gOA Debi Bill,

The I.R.S.fulfills nicely the role as the second plank of The Communist Manifesto.The income tax does not pay for our military or anything else,except to pay for the I.R.S. employees and the interest the Federal Reserve charges The U.S. Government to steal rape and pillage our once great nation. Please do some research and get the truth out. We were once the greatest credit nation in the history of the world. By the way, we did not have an income tax to speak of before 1913-- now we are the world's largest debtor nation with a huge income tax burden; perhaps there is a correlation. Look up The Creature from Jeckyll Island and The Money Masters and other reference materials. Keep up the good work.

Always on the daily routines: read the DR. Almost every time I do so, I am surprised about the minor comments on the EU. In my modest opinion you miss out on something vital happening. If you cold- ly compare facts and figures you would see that the EU is replacing the US rapidly as the economy # 1 !! regards, H.Kuenzlen Dear DR ! Always on the daily routines: read the DR.

Retail fuel industry, cigerette sales, groceries, clothing, tires, appliences, money. Every product you can mention Is now sold only at box stores. Didnt the comunists prove centralization of services does'nt work. I see the same debasment of our small business comunity. they take away our profits and then say well why cant you survive.

I keep reading all this about how to protect one form dollar fall! How does one do that when out of funds? Or no job? I have a family to fund! For me, I can live on about nothing - which is what it appears will have to live on - well at least till run out of life - that is. People are running to India and China now with there money? How long will that work when the USA dollar goes south and now people come back to USA to build stuff again? When USA labor get cheaper then China or India? Maybe - maybe not? A one world currency anyone? It looks like that is direction all this will take. Global crisis - Global solution? So we will be told! We will see. WWIII? Are we already in early stage? ANyone guess!
