Avis à la une
This movie is a must see to every American who is fed up with or questions the government. This documentary is engaging and presents a mystery from the beginning. Why do we pay income tax? Who really controls this government? Go on an investigation with Aaron Russo and the people he's interviewed. Prepare to be intrigued and entertained and to leave the movie with answers! It is set to be released in July, but if there is a pre-screening near you, go! He gives both sides of the issues and presents a fair but skeptical view of what is happening in this country. Unlike Fahrenheit 911, this movie does not shove anything down the audience's throats. It presents questions, answers some, and leaves room for your own investigations. This movie is truly spectacular and worth the travel to see it: I flew from Milwaukee, WI to San Francisco just to see it!
Just saw the film and WOW!!! I would highly encourage every American to see this film and make YOUR OWN decisions based on the very real and verifiable evidence presented. Most Americans complain about the 8 trillion dollar debt we owe but never ask themselves WHO DO WE OWE? Most Americans have never read the Constitution so how can one know if it is, in fact, being violated? My recommendation, start with Article 1 section 8 and, again, ask yourself Who do we owe and, further, why do we owe it. A little food for thought. " Give me control of a nation's money, and I care not who makes its laws" (W. Rockefeller). " If you control the food supply, you control the people. If you control the fuel supply, you control the continent. If you control the MONEY, you control the world". ( H. Kissinger). Many Americans are afflicted with this thing called ARROGANCE and think they know, when in fact it is this ARROGANCE that keeps them from learning or even considering something less known but nonetheless true. It is almost impossible to convince someone of something different of what they THINK they know. In my humble opinion, One must put aside their arrogance, check the facts, and formulate one's own opinion based on the facts they can easily find. If you find that you were lied to, deceived, etc, Then you have a responsibility to do something about it. What kind of country will you leave to your grandchildren? What would it feel like to know you could have done something about it. I think this very same thing happened in the not too distant past, the place was called NAZI Germany. THINK FOR YOURSELF!!
It's always good to ask those who are sending messages in documentaries "what's in it for you?". As we left the theater there was someone handing out brochures for an organization called 'World Freedom Ventures'. Part of their package that you buy when you join will "help you obtain a Limited Liability Corporation which will manage a bank account that holds all savings and earnings... You will also be given the opportunity to be trained and developed as a World Freedom Ventures Associate, enabling you to create your own Sovereignty business". Yes folks; it's a business. If you get fired up enough by watching this film and check out the website (and the film does a good job of prodding you to do so if you're a 'real' patriot), you'll get the whole picture. Prosperity is the name of the game, not patriotism. Why pay your hard-earned money to a corporate government when you can be your own corporation sticking it to the little guy? That's the rub of course; working class and poor people have no "assets, valuables and property" to invest; somebody's gotta get screwed! "As long as it's not me!" is maybe 'The American Way' to some people but I grew up in the incandescence of the JFK administration that said, "ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country".
I know our tax system is screwed up and our current administration is the most vile and corrupt for some 74 years. This film has some important and excellent points on the corruption of our government and the incompetence of our legal system (well, we all knew about that!). The atrocious militarism of our police force is a reality here and now, and many of the waves of the future they are foretelling are not science fiction. But... when it comes to taking in information that is as radical as we see in this film, one must consider all the sources. In this film, they've got everyone from left-wing muckrakers like Mike Ruppert to right-wing muckrakers like Dave Champion. Many of the folks in this film are from waaaaay-out there movements or at least dumb enough to hang out with those folks. Katherine Albrecht for instance recently gave a talk for the Berean Chronicle; a group so radical that they believe that Billy Graham is Satan and that the moon landing was a fake. (Check: retakingamerica.com/past_guest for verification).
I sort of recommend this film as a springboard for asking questions, not as a cause that may have you unknowingly supporting some other political agenda that you have strong disagreements with. Do your homework, and then ask the same hard questions of any organization you might join as you would your government (by all means, question them too!!!). A true patriot would do no less.

I absolutely love this documentary because it helps to open the worlds eyes to all the real problems in this world. It shows us what the future has in store for us if we don't start sharing this information. I think it's a bad idea to talk negative about this movie because if you don't like his style of documentary making, then go and make your own and if you have problem with believing the things he says, then go and look at the facts for yourself instead of complaining that he doesn't give you all the answers. This documentary is a great activist tool and a great help in the information war. Open Your Mind - See The Real Truth! Watch America: From Freedom to Fascism !!!

I've been studying American History (the real history, not the high school version) all my life and I'm 58 years old now. I have read countless out of print and rare books and done much investigation, and I can say, without a doubt, that this movie is 99% accurate, and those of you who spoof at it and rate it low - I'd be willing to bet that you don't know enough about the country you live in, and how we got to where we are, to even intelligently judge it.
The Federal Reserve and the IRS - both private corporations and NOT part of the US Government - have ruined this country. It is a fact that the US declared bankruptcy in 1932 with HJR192 and that every country which has gone off the gold standard for money and started printing fiat money, has collapsed. We will be no different - just a matter of time.
