About This Blog

I set this blog up originally to present updates on what is going on in the economy.  The lefthand column is therefore filled with stunning bits of news recently on the Net.  However, I’ve gotten so much interesting feedback through the “contact us” link that I’ve decided to take a stab at establishing a “virtual community” of armchair money reformers and their thoughts on fixing the system.   Join in the debate!  Your feedback, comments, views, and ideas are welcome under the “Pages” section.  Please also visit: http://www.webofdebt.com.

  2. Ellen,
    To get your message out to the public about the Federal Reserve..run for office as a Congressman/Senator. The American public would start reading your books because of your interviews on radio, television and magazines, more Americans become educated therefor effecting “our” elected officals here to join you in reforming the money supply.

    Sincerely,
    Bernard

    • Respect Bernard’s desire to get good, knowledgeable, trustworthy people in Congress. But your time far better spent getting clarity and focus into drive for financial reform. Until public understands and joins in goal, nothing much will get done in Congress. Congress may follow, unlikely to lead. Dodd/Frank was honest try, completely gutted.

  3. Hi Ellen,

    I live in Australia. Just read you book. It’s very well researched and written. It’s great to have an insight into how the Fed operates. I cannot believe the American people let it get to this stage! Unbelievable.

  4. Inquiring minds want to know…is Ms Brown related to Geoff Hodgson of the University of Hertfordshire? It would make good economic sense…

    • Don’t think so! I am of the British line though.

  5. Hi Ellen,
    A friend emailed me this and I’m forwarding it for your perusal. It is somewhat off topic for this blog, but interesting….

    Please read thoroughly before making your decision.

    IN GOD WE TRUST!

    The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds) took only 3 months & 8 days to be ratified! Why? Simple! The people demanded it. That was in 1971…before computers, before e-mail, before cell phones, etc.

    Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took 1 year or less to become the law of the land…all because of public pressure.

    I’m asking you to forward this email to a minimum of twenty people on your address list; in turn ask each of those to do likewise.

    In three days, most people in The United States of America will have the message. This is one idea that really should be passed around.

    Congressional Reform Act of 2011

    1. Term Limits.
    12 years only, one of the possible options below.
    A. Two Six-year Senate terms
    B. Six Two-year House terms
    C. One Six-year Senate term and three Two-Year House terms

    2. No Tenure / No Pension.

    A Congressman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they are out of office.

    3. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security.

    All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people.

    4. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.

    5. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.

    6. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.

    7. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.

    8. All contracts with past and present Congressmen are void effective 1/1/11.

    The American people did not make the current contract with members of Congress. Congressmen made all these contracts for themselves.

    Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back to work.

    If each person contacts a minimum of twenty people then it will only take three days for most people (in the U.S. ) to receive the message.

    MUCH OF WHAT WE FACE IN TERMS OF PRIVILEGE AND SELFISHNESS IN THIS COUNTRY MIGHT BEST BE CHANGED STARTING FROM THE TOP DOWN. If you agree with the above, pass it on. If not, just delete

    You are one of my 20. I INVITE YOU TO KEEP IT GOING. WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE — THANKS!

  6. Hi Ellen
    I liked your article ‘Libya all about oil, or central banking?’, I guess that now just leaves the Rothschilds / illuminati / New World Order continuing their ‘axis of evil’ media owned campaign against the only central banks they don’t control [see below article] (Sudan, Iran, Cuba & N.Korea). When Afghan was also ticked off the list recently, it’s all beginning to make sense why the USA went into this ‘independent’ country that had nothing.

    Read ‘Bankers: The Only Profession That Drove Jesus to Violence’

    I also now understand why Prophet Mohammed’s last sermon (his most famous) warned about interest in his FIRST paragraph ahead of all other aspects of the religion:
    “…God has forbidden you to take usury (interest), therefore all interest obligations shall henceforth be waived. Your capital is yours to keep. You will neither inflict nor suffer any inequity. God has Judged that there shall be no interest…”

    I think how it should work in your ‘stuck on a treasure island’ model, that a State should issue its own notes and coins legal (not gold as the Rothschild private bankers control this and also will use derivatives to destroy that nation’s currency and create unstable prices). I would only change the fact that because interest is/should-be banned, it is replaced with the fact that the State Bank takes a profit share of when it lends to businesses and individuals (i.e. a joint venture risk-reward partnership, this will also reduce the need for an insurance industry that adds no value to the economy). All the profit the State then makes get re-circulated back for the State’s infrastructure and advancement = a debt free growing country forever as the founding fathers of America dreamed of.

  8. Please read the latest giveaway to the largest “Too Big to Fail” firms.
    This time its a billion dollar bailout by the bureaucrats at the IRS.

    http://www.irs.gov/businesses/article/0,,id=238507,00.html

    No oversite, no impact statement, no running it by congress, nothing.
    Just a big tax loophole arranged by the powerful lobbyist to make sure the big firms don’t pay any taxes for many years to come.

    The IRS is just going to look the other way as the treasury is bled dry.

    Your tax dollars given to the top ten bailout scammers.

    Please share, facebook, twitter, anything to get the word out, thanks.

  9. Ellen, mostly just want to somehow THANK YOU.

    Also, a three-part video interview with you on your site goes from Part 1, to Part 2, and back to Part 1 instead of Part 3.

  10. Hello Ellen,

    My name is Jesse Colombo and I’m the creator of http://www.TheBubbleBubble.com, a website recently built to warn about currently-expanding economic bubbles, including what I call the “CCC Aches” Bubbles: China, Commodities, Canada, Australia, College (U.S.), Healthcare (U.S.), Emerging markets & Social media as well as the post-2008 Northern and Western European housing bubble.

    I’ve been a bubble blogger since early 2004, when I built a fairly popular website called “Stock Market Crash!” for the purpose of warning about the U.S. housing and banking bubble.

    I’m looking to introduce myself to fellow economic skeptic bloggers and establish relationships for the purpose of sharing information on this important topic. I’m a great fan of The Web of Debt website, especially your QE/hyperinflation fear debunking articles (I linked to them on my site) – keep up the great work!

    Looking forward to communicating with you,

    Jesse Colombo

    Called one of “The Ten People Who Predicted the Meltdown”
    by The Times of London in 2008

  11. Ellen, I would be interested in your take on the recent “Chicago Plan Revisited” document of the IMF. I can’t find it anywhere on your website.

  12. Ellen,
    Thank you for your countless hours researching and studying and then assembling that knowledge into readable (and enjoyable) material. It’s much appreciated!

    Every year 24/7 Wall St. lists the best and worst run states in America. This year North Dakota is listed as the #1 Best Run State. I know this is no surprise to you. Unfortunately the researchers give no mention of North Dakota’s in-state banking system. But we know better :)
