Love both of those! I honestly can't think of an OMAM song I didn't enjoy.

Also the person in your avatar looks so familiar :o Where are they from?

Teaching imo is a very rewarding profession so two thumbs up from me coming your way! (: What grade do you specifically want to teach?

I was able to go to the book store earlier and blow one of my gift cards. I bought the first 3 manga of "Judge." I read "Doubt," which is the series before "Judge." They are basically psychological/mystery/horror manga and really good. And the first volume of "Judge" is really thick, so I am pretty excited that it is longer. I hope an anime comes out for "Doubt." I can give a short description with no spoilers if you want! :D

It can be empirically proven that taxation is theft. It is non-voluntary. If I dont pay taxes, I go to jail. Government has no true authority.

Just make sure you watch out for your feels. Just warning you. :P

yaaaa... I went on instagram this morning and saw all of the Valentine's Day posts from all of my friends and former friends from middle school. They were all out dating and crap, and I was sitting on my butt reading "End the Fed" and watching anime lol. This is what my life has come to.

Have you watched Akame ga Kill?

Well the issue with printing more money (which is much better than stealing the money) is that it devalues the currency. Since the Federal Reserve's creation in 1913, the dollar has been devalued by 97% i believe (at the time of his writing it was 95%), which is like a hidden tax. Basically, it has stolen $0.95 from every $1 without stealing anything. So the poor that the extra printed money is supposed to help actually hurts them because their money is worth less and less. Think of post-WWI Germany, where there was hyperinflation as they tried to pay off debts, and the people had to use the money to burn it for warmth because it was worth so little. And this does not hurt the rich as much (it hurts them a little) because 1) they are mega rich 2) they are often the ones receiving the new money 3) they make more money through the artificial monopolies by the government.

And the issue with injecting the money into the economy (which I would agree would be good if it wasnt the Federal Reserve doing it or stolen money from tax payers). If it was from the tax payers, it is just less money they are spending and more money the government spends, meaning resources cannot be allocated properly (similar, but exactly, to the Broken Window Fallacy). What the Fed does is buys assets with printed money, and through a system of fractional reserve banking, actually increases the money supply without printing money. Basically $1000 of money is turned into x amount (the ratio is usually 1:6), so it becomes $6000. Or whatever amount the Fed needs.

haha awesome
linkin park FTW
you seen them live too?
i have a few times, they are fantastic

Still crap. What are you going to career in when you do apply back?

Happy Valentines Day Gimmie Pie!

Pg. 14 from "End the Fed" by Ron Paul. copyright by The Foundation for Rational Economics And Education, Inc. Published by Grand Central Publishing in New York 2009 blah blah blah ok we have established I am not plagiarizing.

"What the largest banks desire is precisely what we might expect any large corporation to desire: privatized profits and socialized losses. The privatized profits come from successful loan activities, sometimes during economic booms. But when the boom turns to bust, the losses are absorbed by third parties and do not affect the bottom line. To cover losses requires a supply of money that stretches to meet bankers' demands. This is something that every industry would like if they could get it. But it is something that the free market denies them, and rightly so."

I think this is something Sanders really gets right, but terribly wrong at the same time. He is right about big bank and corporations being subsidized by government and how they ruin economies because of the subsidization. However, while he wants to hurt big banks, he does not want to remove the Federal Reserve- the largest bank that gives the government the power to do a lot more, such as wars and subsidizing the corporations. and he is against those two things.

Angel Beats is a good forumset.

lol. Im behind on so many things haha.

maybe. tbh, i doubt I ever had a chance anyways. then again, I'm not exactly a confident person. I'm too shy to ask her out even tho i talk to her all the time.

Im reading End the Fed by Ron Paul and he talks about the history of the Federal Reserve and i feel like its a story that you know ends bad, but you want it to end good, but you know that will never happen. and you just hope that somehow it ends differently. Ever get that feeling?

I also found a really good paragraph in there that really sums up the whole rich getting richer, poor getting poorer. i dont want to get into this if you dont want to tho, so just tell me. i dont want to annoy! xD

That's so stupid then if it doesn't carry over. That's basically them saying "hey thank you fr all dat money but FU haha get rekt son" like, come on you can't do that.

alrighty n_n

Sorry if this is just me being dumb, but what exactly does RPL stand for? It's a term I personally haven't heard of.

Its always good to be alive to be honest. Because being dead isn't exactly doctor recommended.

well not quite. the philosophy against slavery, and how it relates to government.

I still haven't watched chapter 11 of RWBY. I think i might wait until 12 comes out so i can watch 2 in a row. But i heard from a friend its really intense.

My friends played a prank on me and sent a rose to the girl i like in my name. Shoot me now.

Done. Edited it into my last post in the thread :)

Sounds good to me! I'll be on the server so just ping me once you're ready.

Hey! I could do it right now, if you want. If not, I'm available pretty much all day tomorrow (I'm on GMT -5, by the way).

your theme changed into a marvelous one omg
