I'm INTERVIEWING author of 'The Creature from Jekyll Island' G. EDWARD GRIFFIN this Friday. If you have questions, I will ask them
G. Edward Griffin (born November 7, 1931) is an American film producer, author, and political lecturer. He is perhaps best known as the author of The Creature from Jekyll Island (1994), a critique of much modern economic theory and practice, specifically the Federal Reserve System.

Starting as a child actor, he became a radio station manager before age 20. He then began a career of producing documentaries and books on often-debated topics like cancer, Noah's ark, and the Federal Reserve System, as well as on libertarian views of the Supreme Court of the United States, terrorism, subversion, and foreign policy. Since the 1970s, Griffin has promoted laetrile as a cancer treatment, a view considered quackery by the medical community. He has also promoted the Durupinar site as hosting the original Noah's ark, against skeptics as well as near-Ararat Creationists. He has opposed the Federal Reserve since the 1960s, saying it constitutes a banking cartel and an instrument of war and totalitarianism. In 2002, Griffin founded the individualist network Freedom Force International.

Hi, OP. Take no notice of such silly replies like the one about penis size, or the one about eating slugs to enlarge its size. They are idiots. They come on here to disturb our quiet time of contemplation of the more serious matters in our fallen world. They need to become one with nature, just as our ancient mothers had intended, from the earliest time of our orgin here on this special planet.

I'm sure over the years he has been threatened, called conspiracy theorist, etc. Does that make him even more determined to speak out?
How do you get rid of the fed, is it only a collapse of its current system that will correct it?

You could also ask him, if given the amount of unsustainable debt created by the existing Fed Res system, if he thinks the world can or ever will return to a gold standard, or if he even thinks that is beneficial.'

I can't find my copy of the book to check. - I remember he said that after WW1 England and US had the same agricultural products, and so as not to undermine England's ability to sell on the world market,we boosted our prices ?[with tariffs?]
Is anything like that going on today?
How can they have so many people on the dole? Do Americans have anything to do with how that's possible? Is this the nature of the "special relationship"?
I know they automatically get six weeks [or 5?] vacation the 1st year in a new job, but Americans certainly don't.

This may be outside your area, but have you watched MI5 on PBS.? Every single time I've watched "the Ameddicans" are the villains, or the idiots getting in the way, etc. "Special relationship" over, I take it?

No way, really?! That book changed my life! I read it twice. Would you be able to ask him how long he thinks we have before a new American currency is implemented or if we will turn into a cashless society? And if the North American Union is in our possible future? Thanks and tell Mr. Griffin he's my hero! :D

This may be a bit much, depends on the course of discussion I suppose. But you could ask him if he thinks that the "evolution" of socialism/communism/collectivism went hand in hand with the fractional reserve banking system beginning with Otto Von Bismark.

Or, put another way, was it was the banksters that originally dreamed up the idea so they could fabricate some AAA collateral for their reserves (sovereign debt that they manufacture with the treasury) irregardless of the fact that eventually all that accumulated debt would become unsustainable and finally blow up?

Didn't the Fed's Charter officially expire on Dec. 21 2012? Was it quietly renewed or extended? What's up with that?

Re: I'm INTERVIEWING author of 'The Creature from Jekyll Island' G. EDWARD GRIFFIN this Friday. If you have questions, I will ask them
Okay, I got one more. At the end of his book he talks of a nightmare scenario where the modern fractional reserve banking system becomes insolvent in a very short period of time. Crisis after crisis ensues with associate bailouts. The net result after the dust settles is that property rights are essentially abolished since most people used mortgages to purchase their homes.

The question is, if he sees some sort of prophetic similarity between what he wrote and what happened with the sub-prime crisis where banks used MERS to circumnavigate paying fees with counties to save them money and in the process potentially destroyed millions of legal property titles in the United States? Does he think the net result from their malfeasance be the same as he wrote? The abolition of private property rights due to the massive malfeasance and subsequent bailouts of the TBTF banks?

Ask him if since his group Freedom Force International has been shining the spotlight on social engineering think tanks like the CFR, if the elites have gone to more undercover, less visible groups to carry out their agenda of re-making civilization in their own image?

You could ask him if he has seen or follows any of Bill Still's work on the money? Has he seen Money Masters or The Secret of Oz? And if so, does he think that the government issuing an interest free bearing currency would work or would it end up in yet another hyper-inflationary collapse?
