On February 16, 2012, Truther.org published a breaking news story entitled “Alex Jones Cancels Speaking Tour 3 Days After Exposure As Possible STRATFOR Double Agent“.

This week the House of Representatives is debating CISPA, the dangerous ‘cybersecurity’ bill that threatens to decimate Internet users’ privacy in the name of security.

The following are 5 new lies that the Federal Reserve is telling the American people.  After each lie I have posted what The Economic Collapse Blog thinks is actually going to happen….
