In 1802, Thomas Jefferson said, “I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.”
I have watched the Federal Reserve chairman, Ben Bernanke, sit arrogantly before Congress and tell them what to do, often by intimidation, of prognosticating future horrors if they don’t listen to his sage advice.
The Federal Reserve, through the great combined wisdom of its members, maintain control over our economy. Not just financial control, but business control also. Wow, what is left?
Imagine yourself in the unique situation of attaining power and wealth. You are at the top of the human ladder of success, but you need more. The working class is indifferent to your power and they are distracted working and enjoying life. This sickens you because you have not achieved happiness. Your power must be expanded:
You present to your elite friends the desire for ultimate power. You present to them the need for more wealth. You present an ultimatum to the government of the masses. You have monetary control, but you want more. The government representing the people tells you to take a hike. You leave the discussion and turn on your big vacuum and suck your wealth and the wealth of your elite friends out of the society. The society having been structured by your wealthy manipulation and support, crumbles. You present your idea once again to the government representing the people and this time they agree to give you what you want. You tell them the process will be slow returning your wealth to where it was, as it is now creating more wealth elsewhere. You tell them you want full control of the economy, you will be the solitary entity to print money, free of regulation.
Now let’s look at how you might exploit this new authority. You are given a printing press and allowed to print at will with no accountability. How many years would it take for you to own the world? Your money would require no foundation but rather, its value would be based on the value of the commodities produced by your friends and neighbors. Needless to say, if your friends and neighbors are too successful, they will flood the market with their commodity (this, of course will help the working class) and the value of your money would drop. You must regulate all commodities to keep your money of great value. Sound like a familiar story? Maybe it’s not a story at all.
Indentured servant or slave neither has freedom. We are the indentured servant of the Federal Reserve. Wouldn’t it be nice to have transparency and find out who the Federal Reserve really is?
Are we now destined to wake up homeless on the continent our forefathers conquered? Or will we expose the Federal Reserve for what it really is and regain control of our life, liberty and happiness?
