1a. What is your view of the monetary system in the US today?

We have spent 200 years spending money we don’t have. We’re at or nearly at the point where we may not ever be able to repay our debt. The insanity must be stopped at all cost or all will be stopped. Congress has been negligent and we must find out exactly where we stand.

1b. What is primarily responsible for a large percentage of our nation’s current economic, social and political problems?

Responsibility for political problems are due to both sides of the ruling party being in control of our Government. This has caused the party(s) to support only themselves and stop at nothing to secure votes to stay in power resulting in extreme abuses to the Constitution and the people of America.

1c. What corrective actions would you work to implement?

We are working to correct it right now. Get people in office who are willing to reduce the Federal Government to a a manageable and Constitutional level.

1d. Do you agree or disagree with the actions the Federal Reserve has taken to address the financial/economic crisis? and why?

Controlling interest and money flow talkes freedom to succeed or fail out of the hands of The producers, the people, that fuel our economy. This destroys free market and free market is America. Besides, who is the Fed working for?

2a. What are your thoughts on American sovereignty in an age of globalism?

Globalism is great if the rest of the world freely decides to come under U.S. control and asks to become States in our Union. The American people must remain free bound only by our constitution and not any foriegn encumbrances in order to decide who we will and will not accept. The U.S. must remain a sovereign Country and the States must remain Sovereign States

2b.What is the biggest source of influence and actions in US government agencies and policies that has been damaging to American sovereignty?

The Federal Reserve has long been almost a foreign power in control of our economy. Way too many Departments and Agency exist that have more authority than should be allowed while working for the American people. Which begs the question, who are they working for.

2c. What can be done to limit these influences?

Reduceing our expenditures and reducing a large part of the Federal agencies would be a good start limiting their influence. A Federal Reserve overhaul would be a huge step as well.

3. What are your views on the necessity of the Patriot Act to protect America?

I don’t see how removing Constitutional rights from Americans can do anything but enslave them. If you wish to be a safe slave then the “Patriot Act” works well.

4. What is your opinion on current US foreign policy?

I believe we’ve deployed outside of Congressional Authority. In spite of the argument that it’s for our safety I believe we must evaluate where in the world we are. Other civilizations have fallen by overstepping their abilities.
