"I'm Mad As Hell" Manifesto

dreamstime_2687134People will act when it is important, or at the lowest level, when it is in their self interest.  I want to incite the entire nation to action, but that's more then we can bite off.  But we sure as hell can start with the Vets.  Everyone gives Vets the proper lip service... "oh yeah, they deserve something... our respect
our trust, whatever..." but never specifics. I say we start naming specifics.  Things the President could grant. 

Things he could be shamed into granting.

And then use that foothold for a national referendum in the next presidential election.  Things on the ballot box that Wall Street would hate, the banks would hate, even the politicians would hate... but that the people will embrace.

Here's My "I'm Mad As Hell" Manifesto For Veterans and Active-Duty Soldiers

  1. A Veteran's Bank.  A private, possibly non-profit bank designed for Veterans - your needs; meaning accessible anywhere, committed to preserving your nest egg and income, and the house you come home to.  You are 25 million strong... 25-million veterans with a voice and a pocketbook — not bad.  One thing this unique Main Street bank can do is to buy up all the toxic mortages held by Veterans; then readjust their interest rates to reflect market value, and also freeze them when you're on active duty.

  2. A Veteran's Credit Card with an interest rate only 5% above Prime. (This credit control is the underlying platform for the ultimate goal of returning credit loans to rates manged so they rise no highter than 18% — a law that was repealed in1978; no credit card should have a credit rate higher than that 18%, and bank charging more than that will be convicted of usery).

  3. Veteran loans at just above the Prime Rate. But by having a Veterans bank owned by vets and run by vets, the equity will always be there to care for soldiers before fattening up executives. That said, such loans and deposits would also be very profitable given the shear number of possible customers, namely those 25 million vets, who if anything else, are loyal.

It's about action... a call to arms.  not guns, but the ballot... the march... the email and letter writting campaign. And a movie to explain why this is so important to the men and women protecting our country.

Make Freeze Frame Happen

About Your Subscription

E-mail Print PDF

We have changed the way you can support the making of the film "Freeze Frame" to bring our organization closer to the reality that Freeze Frame 4 Vets is NOT a non-profit organization nor are your gifts tax-deductable. In fact, since we are giving you gifts for your membership, we determined that what you are doing is more like purchasing a membership in the organziation. So that is what we decided to set up.

Here's the new structure of how you can contribute to the budget for the film. There are three levels of membership:

Premium Membership $5 - $24 You receive an autographed script
Gold Membership $25 - $99 You receive the script AND can dedicate your membership to a deceased member of the military from any time period in American history.
Platinum Membership $100 and up You receive the script, unlimited dedications, and a limited-edition, numbered copy of the movie poster containing your memorials.

Please Note that everyone who previously donated will still receive the script. When it is available an email will be sent to all contributors with a link to where you can download it. Folks who made dedications will still see their memorials on the movie poster and if you qualify for Platinum membership, you will receive a copy of the poster whereas others will be offered the poster for purchase.

For Those Who've Been There And Back

The mission of Freeze Frame 4 Vets is twofold:

  1. To raise money to create a film called "Freeze Frame" through a grass-roots effort. Your contribution to the fund raising campaign through the purchase of the script and/or by making a memorial dedication on our virtual Wall Of Honor will finance the film and build its legacy.
  2. To honor both the living and the dead in such a way that we give back to those who come home "the walking wounded."

A Unique Grass-Roots Approach To Fundraising

E-mail Print PDF

We have a film called Freeze Frame that deals with the fact that more Vietnam Vets committed suicide since coming home then were killed in action.

Unfortunately, those who do not learn from history are condemned to repeat it, and thus we are learning that over the seven years since the fall of Saddam Hussein, more Iraq vets are coming home with serious mental health problems that might ultimately lead them to take their own lives.
