I just got finished hearing George Noory interview Walter Burien on C2C on youtube;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0R_M0f8GQ4
The video is 1 hr and 10 min long. He claims since 1946 government accounting stopped publicly sharing their investments income other than taxation. He claims that 1/3 of gov money comes from tax collection and the other 2/3 are invested with private consortiums. He says that government essentially owns majority share in most pharmaceutical, finance and defense related industries. So rather than-as I always thought that corporations had captured our government-that really our government has captured and has controlling interest in these industries.
He claims that if government were to "come clean" with this deceptive accounting that all taxation could be eliminated without downsizing any services we take for granted now. He devoted a website to this concept (taxretirement.com).
As an aside he mentioned that in late 2008 when the US dollar had fallen to 71, these consortiums that handle this secret government investments and who were long ago invested in foreign assets, in unison dumped 4 trillion dollars worth of foreign held investments that had to be paid in US dollars, and that was the reason the US dollar shot up to 89 in a very short period. If this dollar rally was engineered by these private consortiums imagine the money they must have made knowing it was going to happen.
Paul, I sure would like to hear your opinion of what Walter Burien has to say.
Thanks,
Matt
