These are the bits with minimal crazy: ~6:59 - ~19:28: Fractional Reserve Banking. ~6:59 - ~24:00: The "slavery" argument as a whole. Seventeen minutes to freedom. Fractional reserve banking is why Ron Paul wants to go back to the gold standard. It might also be what Cheney was talking about when he said, "deficits don't matter." Interest is against Sharia. Interesting things to think about. Here’s the slice I’m talking about. These are the bits with minimal crazy:
