Friday June 24 2011 5:25 pm www.msnbc.msn.com The Howard Government refers to the federal Executive Government of Australia led by Prime Minister John Howard. It was made up of members of the Liberal–National Coalition, which won a majority of seats in the Australian House of Representatives at four successive elections. The Howard Government commenced following victory over the Keating Government at the 1996 federal election. It concluded with its defeat at the 2007 federal election by the Australian Labor Party, whose leader Kevin Rudd formed the Rudd Government. It was the second-longest government under a single Prime Minister, with the longest having been the second Menzies Government (1949–1966). Two senior ministers served in single roles for the duration of the Government—Peter Costello as Treasurer, and Alexander Downer as Minister for Foreign Affairs. The leader of the National Party served as Deputy Prime Minister. Three men served in this capacity during the Howard government: Tim Fischer until July 1999, followed by John Anderson until July 2005 and then Mark Vaile. Decisions of the Executive were made either by the Cabinet or by the appropriate Minister.

Economic Collapse, Global Debt Crisis & Depression Explained… CAUSE AND SOLUTION!!!
Here are 6 simple questions we should all be asking:
1. Why are virtually all nations, in both their public and private sectors, in HUGE amounts of debt? And why do these debts increase over time?
2. Why is there never a plan to repay our debt by our elected government or an economist?
3. Why is inflation a constant in the economy?
4. Why do economic recessions / depressions occur periodically? What is the ROOT CAUSE of mass bankruptcy / economic collapse including our current “Global Financial Crisis”?
5. How can we expect continual exponential economic growth (say ~3%) to occur forever? Aren’t our available resources on this planet finite?
6. Most important, what can be done to fix this mess? How can we (collectively) get out of debt and STAY out of debt? Can we reduce inflation and make the economy more stable?
This video is a collation of “The Money Masters”, “Zeitgeist”, “Zeitgeist Addendum”, “Zeitgeist Moving Forward”, “Money As Debt” & “Money As Debt II: Promises Unleashed”.
Answers to the above questions are contained in this video. The underlying causes of our economic problems are explained. Most countries loan their money from a central bank similar to the US Federal Reserve and allow private banks to lend out more money than they have in deposits (called “fractional reserve banking”). All money is created from debt. Collectively, we can NEVER repay off our debts to the banks. This is impossible. “Why is that?” Well, due to the INTEREST charged, total debt grows at a faster rate than total money – resulting in perpetual debt. We have become debt slaves due to this corrupt, fraudulent, unstable monetary system. Debt collapse (bankruptcy) of people, companies & countries are inevitable. Periodic recessions and widespread unemployment are the end result.
A practical, non-radical solution is offered to repay public debt and to abolish fractional reserve banking. Debt free money has been successfully employed many times in the past in the US and Europe and is desperately needed again worldwide.
Money / financial reform is arguably the most critical and urgent of all economic / environmental / societal issues we face today. Please educate others. Together we must take action and end the madness of a debt based economy.

To provide a clear explanation of why we are all slaves to this banking system, watch “Money As Debt”. If possible this movie and its sequel “Promises Unleased” should be distributed and viewed in schools, etc. – or alternatively THIS video.
