“Whom does the money belong to? Who does its ownership belong to? To the State fine…then to us, we are the State. You know that the State doesn’t exist, it is only a legal entity. WE are the state, then the money is ours…fine. Then let me know one thing. If the money belongs to us…Why…do they lend it to us??”
– Beppe Grillo in 1998
If you really want to know why Beppe Grillo is causing Central Planners throughout the European continent to wet themselves, this video will show you. There’s a real revolution happening in Italy. This guy is the real deal and he understands the heart of the whole issue plaguing the world. All I can say is: WOW.

All I can say is he doesn’t understand gold very well.
You are right. You are right.
Grillo doesn’t understand sound money and value reserve significance.
Resolve to serve no more, and you are at once freed. I do not ask that
you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that
you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great
Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight
and break into pieces” … Etienne la Boettie , Discours de la Servitude

Servitude . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 37
Part I—The fundamental political question is why do people
obey a government. The answer is that they tend to
enslave themselves, to let themselves be governed by
tyrants. Freedom from servitude comes not from violent
action, but from the refusal to serve. Tyrants fall
when the people withdraw their support. . . . . . . . . . . . . 39
Part II—Liberty is the natural condition of the people.
Servitude,however, is fostered when people are raised
in subjection. People are trained to adore rulers. While
freedom is forgotten by many there are always some
who will never submit.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 49
Part III—If things are to change, one must realize the extent
to which the foundation of tyranny lies in the vast
networks of corrupted people with an interest in
maintaining tyranny.

You are wrong about Grillo.
Grillo is wrong about gold and about fiatmoney.
He dont understand sound money. Value reserve.
His idea is national bank that prints fiatmoney and controls market.
He dont understand free market: democracy of the consumers (Mises).
Grillo is 100 % correct.
Freedom and sound money are inseparable. Money must be returned to the people to manage and be taken away from the government and its planning apparatus at the central bank. Socialism works in no area of life. Freedom works in every area.
Ron Paul
Grillo doesn’t know these things. Good intentions, but great errors.
based on his …… presentatation he is a socialist “understanding” the money creation scam cant fix that . so his “soloutions” what ever they are will make things worse not better.
in fact all the protest groups in europ are pissed off about the WRONG aspects of the crisis and focoused on oposing “austarity” umm if your out of cash WTF other choices are there that do not involve fraud , theft and redistribution?
what they SHOULD be pissed off about is being led down the garden path by those who put them in this position at all!
in america we are not so far down that path so as to have forgoten the way back!
thus the protests HERE are PRO “government austarity”with the bureaucrats atempting to sell the idea that we need to follow the lemming rush in to the SAME inescapable pit that europian trust in the nany state has created.
the fact is that europian countries have so many people dependant on the government that they CANT cut back with out killing people and by “dependant im not refering to JUST those on the dole this number also includes those who “work” at jobs totaly dependant on government spending the fact is that europ is heded for a depopulation event (AGAIN)
in the us this number while far larger than romnies 47% (include the MIC in that number and it has to be around 60% at least!) it is no where near as large as in the europian nany states where that number seems to be at or aproching 90% here austarity will also kill people when the money runs out but it wont be nearly as bad there is still around 30% to 40% of the population that can produse for them selves and we have acess to food production that can and will sustain us……….we will not be able to “feed the world” as we do now how ever…….there in lies the rub……for europ the middle east and china , all of whome are dependant on the factory farms in the US ……. this is what people dont seem to get about “money” strip away all the bells and wistles and get down to the nity grity of what an econimy IS and it is ALL about a countries FOOD production and what that BASE econimy can suport PERIOD
for the last 100+ years oil production has been a HUGE factor in this number and thus we have been able to cheat the econimics to a certain extent but the oil distribution system can not work with $100 a barell feed stock and is now consuming its self in a positive feed back death spiral of maintence cutbacks on equipment running at 120% of it’s “service rating” in order to provide fuel stocks at prices that NO market will bare at volumes high enuff to meet expences leading to more cut backs in maintaining or after it fails (explosively) in service replacing refining capacity.every price spike that results kills off more of the distribution network and causes more demand destruction with real demand now falling on a VERTICAL line when graphed it is THAT bad LOL the buggy whip manufactuers were right after all it was ALL a “fad” just the biggest and longest in recorded history………….
The point is that the money changers who control the money control the world. To put an end to this we just need to STOP borrowing and STOP using their money.
Convert all your fiat currency to anything else they do not have control over and you win, immediately. That means buy physical gold, silver, palladium, platinum, Bitcoins, Webmoney, whatever. As long as you can use it to buy things and it doesn’t devalue too much it’s all good. Don’t borrow any fiat currency either. Stop complaining and waiting for the gov. stooges to do something about it, they won’t. Do it yourself and take control over your life. Whose life are you living?
Beppe Grillo understands money well, and by the audience reactions understood his points, which essentially revolved around the fact that money is a fiction, an illusion conjured up by the banksta gangstas, but presented as substantive.
Had he been running for office in the 1980s, before the Internet, they would have shot him early on, and few would know.
They dare not shoot him now in 2013 for the news could not be contained to the local media, as everyone in Europe and beyond would know, and especially why.
A good man, who would rather die than cave in to the banksta gangstas.
All Europe needs is a charismatic like him for each EU country, and its over for the interlocked intermarried cabal of just a few thousand people living off the rest.
