They are only relative, i.e. the safest is perceived to be the Fedaral governments Treasuries in that they are the “lender of last resort” and if you read the fine print, “fiat money” is simply based on “government decree” i.e. faith in the credit of the government. Have you taken an objective look at their balance sheet lately, or considered their off balance sheet PROMISES like social security and health care?

Sure they can always PRINT more pretty paper with numbers on it and CALL it money but its intrinsic value is STILL ZERO, essentially a con game (based on faith in an I.O.U.) that when faith is lost, can only get you more of the same worthless paper. The Federal Reserve Act in effect LEGALIZES counterfeiting, creates a monopoly (private bankers creating our money out of thin air) and is in REALITY the mother of all Ponzi schemes a pyramid by definition. It requires the exponential borrowing of substitute money into existence that must be paid back with interest, (which the system never creates) therefore the pyramid can only continue to exist through exponential creation of debt in the form of new loans.

Could that EXPLAIN the fact that every level of government, most corporations, and particularly individuals are leveraged to the eyeballs with DEBT?
