See More of Dan's and the Band's Videos On September 10, 2009, DownsizeDC.org released the following: D o w n s i z e r - D i s p a t c h MEDIA ALERTS: Downsize DC President Jim Babka will be on two radio shows this afternoon/evening -- The Drive w/ Gary Nolan and Free Talk Live with Ian and Mark. Check below his signature for details, along with a message from Free Talk Live host Ian Freeman. Quote of the Day: "Once I built a railroad, I made it run, made it race against time. Once I built a railroad; now it's done. Brother, can you spare a dime?" -- "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime," lyrics by Yip Harburg, music by Jay Gorney (1931) Subject: DownsizeDC.org Releases New Folk Song, "Brother Can You Spare a F.R.A.U.D.?" If the Great Depression had a theme song it was "Brother Can You Spare A Dime." Now we're offering a new folk song by DC Downsizer Dan Litwin. It's the theme song for our campaign to . . . * End the inflation tax Whenever we talk about the Federal Reserve System and Federal Reserve Notes (otherwise known as The Dollar), we're talking about a F.R.A.U.D. F- Federal When the Federal Reserve expands the number of Federal Reserve Notes the value of each dollar you hold DECREASES, and prices rise. The actual value of goods and services hasn't INcreased. Instead, the value of the currency you hold has DEcreased. This is why . . . The value of the dollar has fallen nearly 99% since the creation of the Federal Reserve System in 1913! In other words, because of the FED's legalized counterfeiting a dollar now buys less than a dime would in the Great Depression. That's why we asked Dan Litwin to write "Brother, Can You Spare a F.R.A.U.D.?" We want people to start talking about the dollar in terms of FRAUD. When you think about it, "the dollar" is really a meaningless name. Instead, you should think of the dollar as a Federal Reserve Note, which -- as a fiat currency with no intrinsic value -- is merely an ACCOUNTING UNIT that the politicians use to rob you blind through . . . * Direct taxes that consume nearly half of everything you
earn (counting state and local taxes) Protecting these activities is the reason the Federal government has a "legal tender" law and a coinage monopoly. If they didn't force you to trade in F.R.A.U.D.'s then you wouldn't. You'd prefer honest, free market money instead, like units of gold and silver. But that would cause the politicians to lose much of their power to tax, borrow, and inflate. The politicians don't like that, but we do, so we want to . . . * Repeal the legal tender law When we do these things you'll be able to withdraw from the F.R.A.U.D. economy, thereby reducing the power and relevance of the Federal Reserve. That's why we've supported three bills, NOT YET RE-introduced by Congressman Ron Paul . . . * The 15-word "Honest Money Act" would repeal the 41-word legal tender law. * The 104-word "Free Competition in Currency Act" would repeal the government monopoly over the creation of coins for use as currency. * The 193-word "Tax-Free Gold Act" would prohibit federal and state taxes on precious metal coins and bullion. Please send a letter to your Representative and Senators asking them to introduce these bills. Use your personal comments to tell them that you think the dollar is a F.R.A.U.D, mentioning that it's lost nearly 99% of its value since 1913. Then . . . * Watch the video for "Brother
Can You Spare A F.R.A.U.D." on YouTube. Spread this song far and wide -- re-post it on your blog, email it to your local talk shows, and share it with your friends.
