PLEASE TAKE 5 MINUTES TO READ THIS MESSAGE AS THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PROJECT I HAVE EVER EMBARKED UPON IN MY LIFE. I am asking your gracious support of my short film about the roots of this current global monetary crisis entitled “BAMBOOZLED! – End the Big Money Lie”. My hope is that "BAMBOOZLED!" will become one of the most important short films you will ever watch by raising your awareness of how a fraudulent monetary system has negatively affected all of our lives since the day we were born. In fact, our current fraudulent global monetary system will continue to negatively affect all of our lives until the day we die unless we collectively stand up and take action now. This is not a film just about the banking elites that control money and how they use this power to control our lives, but this is a film more importantly about humanity, truth, and ultimately, love. My target date for completion of this project is Sept/Oct 2009. I believe that the SINGLE GREATEST CONTRIBUTION TO HUMANITY would be the transformation of our current fraudulent monetary and banking system into a sound monetary system, and here's why.

John Maynard Keynes, the father of the modern economic system implemented by the major world economies today, once stated: "There is no subtler, no surer means of overturning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."

The bankers that control our global monetary system today have consistently debauched our currency year after year, and this is the greatest single factor that has given rise to our current global economic crisis. It is not enough to hate banks and to hate Wall Street. Hatred will not fix the grave crisis we have, but understanding and education can. We must understand that our current fraudulent monetary system enables the persistence of poverty, starvation, war, civil unrest, refugees, and terrorism worldwide. This fraudulent system NEGATIVELY IMPACTS US ALL, rich or poor; black, white, yellow, red or brown. We cannot reasonably expect to solve any of the world’s major problems, or even its minor ones, without first putting an end to today’s fraudulent monetary system. “BAMBOOZLED! End the Big Money Lie” will cite historical evidence that will illustrate how a sound monetary system will automatically contribute to solving the world’s major problems, and this is why my short film ultimately is a message about humanity and love.

“Bamboozled!” will explore questions we must all answer if we want economic stability in the world today.

(1) Why do we accept operational business models employed by banks worldwide if we would deem this same business model fraudulent if utilized by any other business sector?

(2) Why do we conclude that the USD $50 billion Ponzi-scheme fraud committed by former NASDAQ chairman Bernard Madoff is “shocking” while simultaneously concluding that the exact same scheme employed by banks is “acceptable”?

(3) Why do we accept monetary inflation and a reduction in our standard of living as a fact of life when a sound monetary system has proven to lead to price stability for hundreds of consecutive years?

STEP ONE: UNDERSTANDING

Understanding the process of money creation is the first step to ending the fraudulent global monetary system. If you knew that every dollar, real, peso, yen, euro, krona, pound, baht, or yuan that you deposited in a bank was guaranteed to be returned to you at a lesser value, would you stand by idly and accept this fate for the rest of your life? Today we all stand guilty of accepting this fate because it happens every day to every one of us. A fraudulent monetary system based upon unsound currencies makes it virtually impossible for all of us to maintain the same standard of living year to year without accumulating debt in some shape or form. Instead of slave masters using whips to control slaves today, bankers use the ability to deflate and inflate money at will to impose conditions of economic slavery upon the world in a manner so devious and subtle that not one in a million men understands it. When the media and our educational systems participate in spreading misinformation of our global monetary system, an alternative medium of spreading the truth is necessary to end a monetary system that perpetually creates economic instability and global conflict.

I am making “BAMBOOZLED! End the Big Money Lie” to provide that level of understanding in the hopes that not just one in several million people will understand today’s crisis, but that millions eventually will. With my documentary, I will demonstrate how wealthy people enrich themselves during this crisis while exploring how this crisis has affected the common world citizen from three different but very relatable perspectives:

(1) A young student that becomes indoctrinated to “the Big Money Lie” in traditional forums of education so that he accepts economic propaganda as “truth” today;

(2) A downsized worker that was never able to maintain her standard of living without assuming massive debts and that suffers severely today because of the inability to build a sufficient “emergency fund” for situations like today; and

(3) An activist fighting famine and poverty that works tirelessly yet is forever frustrated by soaring food prices that impedes all of his efforts to date.

It is my sincere hope that every single one of you will eventually understand after watching my documentary how the current monetary system severely and negatively impacts our current standard of living and that of every person we know.

Understanding our current monetary system starts with psychology. Ironically, it has always been much easier to convince millions, or even billions of people, to believe the treachery of huge, mountainous lies versus little, small white lies. Why? Human behavior is enormously driven by a strong need for acceptance and conformity.

Numerous psychological studies have proven that a majority of people will obey ideas and actions that they know to be untrue or harmful just to avoid the discomfort of conflict and to avoid being the only person that does not agree with everyone else. The landmark 1963 Stanley Milgram shock experiment discovered that the majority of peoples’ behavior was even easier to mold if a perceived “authority figure” delivered the request to conform. The Milgram shock experiment concluded that 65% of people would follow an authority figure’s instructions to deliver severe electric shocks to a stranger as long as the authority figure encouraged the subject to continue and informed the subjects that they would not be held responsible for their actions. Milgram concluded that “ordinary people, simply doing their jobs, and without any particular hostility on their part, can become agents in a terrible destructive process.” And that is exactly what we have become today – agents for a terribly destructive and fraudulent global monetary system.

Throughout history, bankers have consistently preyed upon the overwhelming need of humans to conform in our behavior and belief systems. They realized if a perceived authority figure could direct the majority of humans to behave in manners that conflicted with our personal morality and ethics, that merely convincing us to believe a BIG LIE would be a virtual walk in the park. Consequently, bankers started spreading the BIG LIE that Central Banks are an institution of monetary stability when in fact the exact opposite is true.

Now that all of us have bought into the BIG LIE of a fraudulent monetary and banking system for more than a century, it is easy to direct all of us to continue our belief in these lies because of our great psychological need to conform. If we take just a second to reflect on the paper money that we allow to determine our wealth, we would at once realize that all fiat money in the world – US dollars, Yen, Euros, and Pound Sterlings – is nothing more than an I.O.U piece of paper backed by NOTHING that is perpetually devalued year after year.

As this monetary crisis deepens, the lies will become greater and more grandiose in scope, to the point where people may actually be fooled into believing that things are getting better when they are not. In fact, it is entirely feasible that the illusion of an economic recovery can be created by those that control Central Banks at the same time they are massively destroying the purchasing power of our money. Thus, it is essential that we get the word out today about how the fraudulent monetary system operates. In “BAMBOOZLED!” I will illustrate to you how these deceptions are likely to play out.

STEP TWO: AWARENESS

Again, if we hate banks and we hate Wall Street, this alone will accomplish nothing. It is important that we channel this hate into something POSITIVE by raising awareness of this situation around the world. Upon completion of “BAMBOOZLED!”, I will present my short film online and free of charge to maximize awareness of the fraudulent nature of our current global monetary and banking system around the world. For those of us currently engaged in other passionate causes such as fighting poverty, preserving our environment, and providing humanitarian aid to refugees, it is my hope that my documentary will illuminate the reasons why we all will constantly be fighting un-winnable battles until today’s fraudulent money is replaced with sound money. Once my documentary is completed, if my travels bring me to your city, I will be happy to speak about the subject matter contained in BAMBOOZLED! on a pro bono basis as well.

STEP THREE: ACTION

Severe market distortions and grave economic crises have only happened during periods of our history when fraudulent monetary systems existed. When sound monetary systems existed, the boom/bust cycles that have become the hallmark of modern economies have never happened. In fact once you understand how these boom/bust cycles are created, you will never ever again buy a stock or a real estate property at the peak of a boom cycle because bubbles become simple to identify. Most people are unaware that history is full of centuries of sustainable, stable economic periods of prosperity and growth that is literally inconceivable under a fraudulent monetary system. The monetary crisis we face today currently is destabilizing societies in America, Mexico, Iceland, the Ukraine, China, Greece, Singapore, Australia, Russia, India, Argentina, Spain, the United Kingdom, Germany and numerous other countries; however, this crisis is not without a viable, sustainable solution. We can no longer look to our government leaders for the solutions as they only offer perpetuation of our present conditions.

“BAMBOOZLED!” will provide credible solutions that we ALL can act upon to build a stable, more productive society. As this crisis deepens, the progression of lies will become even greater, to the point where many people may actually be convinced that things are getting better when they are not. We are now firmly at a tipping point where ONLY WE CAN DECIDE IF THINGS GET MUCH WORSE OR MUCH BETTER. Instead it is up to us to bring the change necessary to instill peace and prosperity in our world.

He unfettered his mind from corporate bias and propaganda when he founded his own investment research and education firm, SmartKnowledgeU, in 2006. In his spare time, he trains in martial arts and mentors at-risk youth in urban cities. JS has pledged all 2009 1st & 2nd quarter profits of the 3rd edition of his book, Confessions of a Wall Street Insider, How to Profit From the Growing 2009 Monetary Crisis to the Bamboozled! film project.
