Hi, Jolepp, I appreciate such a well informed and courteous reply. Thank you.
First, my apologies. I should have been more careful in my statement about the unelected members of the European Union. The members of the EU parliament are elected, but the members of the European Commission and the European Central Bank are not elected. The European Commission is the
executive body of the European Union; thus, it has a significant amount of control over the legislative process and over undemocratic processes (please see the video at the end of this comment). Nigel Farage, an outstanding member of the European Parliament, is just one of my sources for this information. He is an outspoken critic of the unelected element in the EU (again, please see the video).
Second, I will admit that I was intentionally being provocative when I stated that bankers and communists are working together in the same organization. I must also admit that I would never have made such a seemingly "crazy" claim (my word, not yours) if I didn't have ample evidence to back it up. The research I've been doing for the past few years has been very enlightening (I'm happy to say I finally began putting my history degree to
serious use in 2005, thanks entirely to the internet). There are many pieces of this massive, worldwide jigsaw puzzle that link bankers and communists together; however, those pieces, when viewed one (or a few) at a time, may not always seem significant.
Anyway, I am now attempting to put together that reply. The hardest part is knowing what to include and what not to include. I'm not very good at that. But, for the sake of being as brief
as possible, I will try my best.
P.S. I certainly wasn't thinking ahead when I wrote that provocative comment. I should have anticipated all the work I would be creating for myself if someone were to challenge me on it. Now I have to overcome my considerable lethargy and get to work. Ha?
In your subsequent comment, I had to laugh as soon as I saw the name "Lamar Smith" in that woman's Facebook comment. I knew then that she had obviously had a rude awakening.
