Choose wisely grumpy old friends whom you are going to serve, whom you are going to resist, whom you are not complying and who you will destroy.

Excerpt from article, I encourage you to read it.

“When Silicon Valley Bank and other banks failed earlier this year, the debate over the sustainability of fractional reserve banking resurfaced. Under fractional reserve banking, banks keep only a fraction of customers’ deposits in reserve. The difference is bank credit, such as government debt, mortgages, business loans, and many other kinds of loans. This practice leaves the bank open to a run, in which panicky depositors attempt to withdraw their funds from the bank en masse but the bank doesn’t have the cash on hand. The following FRED graph gives an idea of the extent of the mismatch between deposits and reserves.”

“With such an agreement, “fractional reserve free banking” proponents say, depositors would know that they are effectively creditors to the bank and that the bank is therefore a debtor to them. This means that the deposits are technically and legally owned by the bank and that what the depositor has is technically and legally a callable loan to the bank. Clear agreements would mean that depositors understand that there is a chance that they won’t be able to get their money (actually, the bank’s money, in this view) immediately in the event of a bank failure. Of course, central banking and government-backed deposit insurance diminish customers’ expectation of bank responsibility—how much should banks be expected to disclose about the deposit relationship if most of their customers’ deposits are guaranteed by the government anyway?

In line with other fractional reserve free banking proponents, George Selgin argues that modern depositor agreements—the dense legalese most people skip—already establish this transparency.”

Take heed and consider this if you have large account balances in a bank. This was planned long before we were most born and just a way in leaner and tumultuous times for those in charge, bankers to transfer that wealth to them. There are several ways to bypass this taking, as low a balance. pulling cash out and leave enough to pay by check your mortgage/rent, utilities and credit. There are other strategies and methods. Find one that works for you and not allow your wealth to disappear.

Zerohedge’s article would not name the race of the “youths and teenagers” Shit, like we don’t know it? It is now a metaphor for negros and mexicans. Like Phil said, keep your head on a swivel. You don’t go armed, you are a victim. The article gave excuses, bullshit, only reason is they are not being punished, and I mean punished. Teenagers? You get the same punishment and lockdown in a prison as an adult, if you survive that long. Time we give no quarter or mercy to these savage, feral waste of protoplasm. No MERCY!
