So as even Alex Knight appears to be uninterested, despite the lengthy article he wrote, and has disappeared, this seems like I'm wasting my time so I'll do the same.

Goodbye.

I don't see this connection you make between stock exchanges and banks. Nobody wants to ban stock exchanges or even futures exchanges. However if you said there is a nexus with the futures markets and banks I would agree. An underhanded one to manipulate that needs something done about it.

However, it would be a very distinct claim, one that I don't believe you've demonstrated, to further assert either that only worker ownership is morally defensible or the related claim that only worker ownership would be tolerated without the state. I do believe there are good reasons to suspect, though, that market competition without the state would result in a gradual but strong tendency towards greater worker ownership — but that's a question of economic prediction rather than of what stateless property law ought to look like.

In short, the history of joint ownership in the context of statism doesn't seem likely to directly tell us much about what joint ownership without statism would look like — at least, not without more being said as to the reasons for thinking so beyond merely noting that X and Y were contemporaneous.

Now if you wish to ban stock exchanges, I'm willing to listen – else your equation is under specified.

It’s not just the central bank that has to go, its all of the banks and the stock exchanges to. Unless you are willing to go that far, talking of abolishing the Fed is nonsense.

“You may not know it yet, but we are winning. The Internet, shortwave and Satellite have the elitists on the run. This is even more pronounced today than at the Bilderberger Meeting in Greece in June. Governments and central banks are under severe pressure. Just look at irate constituents at Town Hall meetings and 277 co-sponsors of Ron Paul’s HR 1207, a bill to investigate and audit the Fed. Ex-treasury Secretary Paulson and Fed Chairman Bernanke were just treated to the worst grilling in the history of the House and were called crooks and criminals by Congress people. Bernanke couldn’t explain where $500 billion came from and as well the disappearance of $2 trillion. When these events happened the dollar strengthened, but Bernanke only found this to be a coincidence. Congressman Grayson laughed in Bernanke’s face. We had this tape in the last issue in the US section, and after we ran it, it mysteriously disappeared from C-Span. So much for a free media and open society.”

Another newsletter writer who is very savvy with what is going on is Clive Maund.
You can Google an article of his by typing in: Clive Maund. its effect on resource stocks

It is 3 years old and the 9/11 incident he speaks of says about 30% of the population believe the government at least had a hand in it. Something like that anyway. I believe the figure is now close to 50% so that’s not too bad for 3 years.

"The federal debt is a fraud that has been created virtually "out of nothing" by the Federal Reserve. A private banking organization that masquerades as a government agency for the purpose of further enriching the ultra rich. It does this by charging interest on credit literally created out of thin air. Sound preposterous? These claims are documented in Chapter 2 with official quotations that you can obtain yourself if you wish verification. The fact that these claims sound so utterly preposterous is what allows them to be so easily dismissed by the American populace, and what allows the Federal Reserve to continue its fraudulent control over our economy."

So he is saying: The sheeple find it too difficult to believe and dismiss the claim as something preposterous so they get away with it and the sheeple suffer because of their laziness and know-it-all but know nothing attitude.

Don't be one of the sheep. Learn at least the basics of what is really going on in the world. You won't do that by looking at your mainstream media TV. It is also under the control of the 'Ruling Elite' They seem to hold all the aces but in this day of the computer, it is not impossible to win. In fact they are getting worried especially when Bernanke cops flack and obviously lies his way out of difficult situations.
