WE BET YOU DO NOT KNOW
The Sad Story Of The Privately Owned
Federal Reserve Bank
"The money powers prey upon the nation in times of
peace and conspire against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than a
monarchy, more insolent than autocracy and more selfish than a bureaucracy. It
denounces, as public enemies, all who question its methods or throw light upon
its crimes. I have two great enemies, the Southern Army in front of me and the
bankers in the rear. Of the two, the one at the rear is my greatest foe."
PRESIDENT ABRAHAM LINCOLN -
1866
"We have given the People of this Republic the greatest blessing
they have ever had - their own currency to pay their own debts." (No privately
owned Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank)
PRESIDENT ABRAHAM LINCOLN - 1867
"The high office of the President has been used to foment a plot
to destroy the Americans freedom and before I leave office I must inform the
Citizen of his plight."
PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY (10 days before he was murdered)
"Like it or not, you are a slave. You admit you are a
slave every April 15th! That's when you sign forms that "voluntarily" lay bare
to the government the most private details of your life! Few people realize the
income tax is a slave tax. It can never be compatible with the life of a free
people.

WHO OWNS THE PRIVATELY
OWNED
FEDERAL RESERVE BANK?
The privately owned Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) is not a
government agency. The Federal Reserve Bank (The Fed) is privately owned by a
group of primarily foreign bankers. In 1913, Congress sank America into eternal
debt by giving the power to issue currency and control the American economic
system to the privately owned FRB. Who are the owners or chief shareholders of
the privately owned FRB? Originally, there were reportedly 203,053 shares of
privately owned FRB stock, of which approximately 65% were owned by foreigners
and approximately 35% (72,000 shares) were owned by:
-
Rockefellers' National City Bank = 30,000 shares
-
Chase National = 6,000 shares (currently Chase Manhattan and owned by David
Rockefeller)
-
The National Bank of Commerce = 21,000 shares (now known as Morgan Guaranty
Trust)
-
Morgans' First national Bank = 15,000 shares
Interestingly, the total shares owned by Rockefeller's interests
equal 36,000 shares and
the total of Morgan's equals 36,000 shares.
Although the privately owned Federal Reserve Act of
1913 provided the names of the owner banks be kept a secret, R.E. McMaster,
publisher of the newsletter "The Reaper" discovered, through
confidential Swiss banking connections, that the following banks have
controlling interest in the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank
-
Rothchild Banks of London and Berlin
-
Lazard Brothers Bank of Paris
-
Israel Moses Sieff Banks of Italy
-
Warburg Bank of Hamburg, Germany and Amsterdam
-
Kuhn Loeb Bank of New York
-
Lehman Brothers Bank of New York
-
Goldman Sachs Bank of New York
-
Chase Manhattan Bank of New York (Controlled By Rockefellers)
In his impeccably researched book "Secrects of the
Privately Owned Federal Reserve", Eustace Mullins states: "Because the
privately owned Federal Reserve Bank of New York sets interest rates and
controls the daily supply of price of currency throughout America, the owners
of that bank are the real directors of that whole system. These shareholders
have controlled our political and economic destinies since 1913." Those
shareholders making up Mullins' list are almost identical to the one compiled
by the Swiss banking source.

Sounds like a real group of American Patriots, doesn't it!
THE
INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT
The day before the privately owned Federal Reserve Act
passed, Congressman Charles Lindberg Sr. said:
"The money trust deliberately
caused the 1907 money panic and thereby forced Congress to create a
National Monetary Commission which led to the ultimate creation of
the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank. The Federal Reserve Act
establishes the most gigantic monetary trust on earth. When the
President (Wilson) signs the bill, the invisible government of the
Monetary Powers will be legalized. The people must make a
declaration of independence to relieve themselves from the Monetary
Powers, by taking control of Congress!... The worst legislative
crime of the ages is perpetrated by this banking bill. The caucus
and the party bosses have again operated and prevented the people
from getting the benefit of their own government!"
How did the monetary powers manipulate the passage of
the Federal Reserve Act? Senator Nelson Aldrich was named as chairman of the
Monetary Commission, which was like naming a cat to design the canary cage.
Aldrich was the maternal grandfather of Nelson Aldrich Rockefeller of Standard
Oil and Chase Manhattan Bank, through the marriage of his daughter, Abby Greene
Aldrich to John D. Rockefeller Jr. The Rockefellers have been the largest
beneficiaries of the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank.
The chief architect of the plan was Paul Warburg, a Rothchild agent who was
salaried at $500,000.00 a year (equivalent to about 50 million dollars today).
Another member of the monetary commission was Jacob Schiff of Kuhn-Loeb and
Co., who helped finance the Bolshevik revolution in Russia with a $20 Million
contribution. Schiff was born in a home shared with the Rothchilds in
Frankfurt, Germany. On November 22, 1910, Aldrich and the rest of the Monetary
Commission met at a private hunting club of J.P. Morgan on Jekyll Island,
Georgia, to draft a bill that would put the economic future of the United
States into the hands of a few private Money Powers. Read
"The Creature From Jekyl Island" by G. Edward Griffin.
The original bill was the highly unpopular Owen-Glass Bill. The name of the
bill was later changed to the Federal Reserve Act. The timing of the vote for
the Federal Reserve Act was engineered by its promoters. It was passed hastily,
in an effort to break for Christmas, on December 23, 1913, while the majority
of opposing Congressmen were on Christmas vacation. Then, when elected, the
banker-financed President Woodrow Wilson immediately signed the Federal Reserve
Act. Within months of starting the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank,
individual Income Taxes were created to pay for this new bankers' interest
expense. The taxes of American Citizens pay the interest on all new "debt
certificate" currency and credit issued by the privately owned Federal Reserve
Bank.
Where does the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank
spend the mass profits it extorts from the labor of our People? Dr. Antony
Sutton, author of "Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution" (Arlington House
Publishers, Rochelle, N.Y., 1974), provides some insight. He conducted
exhaustive research through American, Canadian and German government archives
and discovered solid evidence, which he painstakingly documented, proving that
many American Capitalists, primarily the JP Morgan (US Steel) interests
provided financial support for the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. Also,
William B. Thompson, Director of the US Federal Reserve Bank of New York,
provided the Bolsheviks significant monetary support. Dr. Sutton stated "If
Thompson had not been in Russia in 1917, subsequent history might have followed
quite a different course. Without the financial, diplomatic and propaganda
assistance given by Thompson and his associates to Trotsky and Lenin, The
Bolsheviks may well have quickly withered away.
MONEY FROM NOTHING!
Ask yourself this question, "If you were given a
monetary printing press and a legal contract to print and issue all the money
you would ever need to run your household at no cost to you, would you,
instead, give that printing press and contract to a banker and agree to borrow
your money from him, to be repaid in full with interest?" "NEVER".
The government has done exactly that. The most awesome
power America has is the power to CREATE, using as collateral the future
productivity of its Citizens, all of the currency and credit we would ever need
to run our government, prosperously! Instead, America has legislated
away this priceless power of monetary and credit creation to a group of
primarily foreign, self-serving bankers! According to the Supreme Court, this
transfer of power is in direct violation of the law.
"Congress may not abdicate or transfer to others its legitimate
functions"
Schechter Pultry v U.S. 29 U.S. 495, 55 U.S. 837.842
(1935)
Following is a simplified explanation of the inane
method in which currency and credit is currently created in the United States.
This system benefits a few elitists at an exorbitant cost to We the
People! The average American contributes one third of his hard earned dollars
to support this corruption!
Let's say, for example, that to carry out its legitimate
functions, the United States needs $300 billion in credit and $100
million in currency :
-
The U.S. Bureau of Printing and Engraving at the U.S. Treasury
is instructed to print $100 million in Federal Reserve Notes, as currency for
the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank.
-
The privately owned Federal Reserve Bank System pays the U.S. Bureau of
Printing and Engraving $20.60 per 1000 bills it prints! That is
approximately two and a half cents
for each bill, regardless of their face denomination, ie. $1, $5, $10, $20,
$50, $100 bill. WHAT A DEAL!!
-
Next, the United States orders the same U.S. Bureau of Printing and Engraving
to print $300 billion, $100 million worth of U.S. Treasury Bonds.
-
The privately owned Federal Reserve Bank then purchases $100 million of U.S.
Treasury Bonds (redeemable at full face value plus interest) from the
United States. To pay for these, the Fed uses the privately owned Federal
Reserve Bank Notes that they just purchased for two and a half cents per bill!
Next, the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank purchases the other $300 billion
in U.S. Bonds with a simple ten second computer entry that transfers $300
billion in "credit" into the United States' Treasury account. Where did the
privately owned Federal Reserve Bank System get the $300 billion? It created it
from NOTHING.
The People are then obligated to repay the privately
owned Federal Reserve Bank, with their tax dollars, at full face value, plus
interest (which is converted to gold at par, through the International Monetary
Fund). The privately owned Federal Reserve Bank Notes and federal government
credits were created for virtually nothing.
Conversely, the repayment of just the interest on
these bonds requires a Citizens' physical labor from approximately January 1st
until May 1st and giving 100% of their substance to the privately owned Federal
Reserve Bank. What does the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank or the
federal government give back to We the People in exchange for the sweat
of our brow? NOTHING! ZIP! NADA! That constitutes servitude without just
compensation.
COST TO WE THE PEOPLE: $300 Billion, $100
Million, plus continuously compounding interest.
COST TO THE PRIVATELY OWNED FEDERAL
RESERVE BANK: About $26,000!
"PERMIT ME TO CONTROL THE
CURRENCY OF A NATION AND I CARE NOT WHO MAKES ITS LAWS!" Baron
de Rothschild
The Power of Monetary and Credit
Creation
Where does the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank get its money?
IT CREATES IT FROM THIN AIR!
The privately owned Federal Reserve Bank has created
a debt based economy. It creates nothing. Every dollar that America spends, it
borrows from someone else. Every privately owned Federal Reserve Bank note in
your wallet or purse is nothing more than a debt certificate. America has given
its greatest power, monetary creation, to the privately owned Federal Reserve
Bank.
MONEY FACTS: House Banking and
Currency Committee, 1964, pp. 9, states:
"The
privately owned
Federal Reserve Banks create Federal Reserve Notes out of thin air to buy
government bonds from the United States Treasury by lending into circulation at
interest and by bookkeeping entries of checkbook credit to the United States
Treasury. The Treasury writes up an interest bearing bond for one billion
dollars. The
privately owned
Federal Reserve gives the
Treasury a one billion dollar credit for the bond, it has created
from nothing. This is one billion dollar debt which the
American people are obligated to pay full, with
interest."
A publication called, "PUTTING IT SIMPLY", by the Boston
Federal Reserve Bank, sums it up as:
"When you or I write a check there must be sufficient
funds in our account to cover that check, but when the privately owned
Federal Reserve writes a check, it is CREATING money."
LOGIC ECONOMICS
In reality money is not created from thin air. The
backing or value of the dollar does NOT exist at its creation, but by its
redemption. It is not gold or silver that backs our currency but the
willingness of the American people to exchange that currency for raw materials,
goods, services, manpower and brainpower! In other words, the REAL collateral
behind the dollar is
the American Peoples'
productivity.
This is a commodity in which America is extremely rich! If you use currency to
buy food, it is the food that gives the currency value. The food has value
without the currency, but the currency has no value without the food or other
valuable substance or service. The creator of the currency merely prints
"Notes" that we exchange among each other for goods and services. Currency is,
simply put, barter certificates or script. Although gold and silver, because of
their intrinsic value, are an excellent hedge against FRB engineered inflation.
It is the productivity of the American people that gives currency its
purchasing value.
If we all refused to use privately owned Federal
Reserve Bank notes for our exchanges, the Feds currency would have absolutely
NO VALUE. Someone has to create currency if we are to have a medium of exchange
other than direct bartering. The biggest mistake in American history was to
give this awesome creative power to the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank!
Because it is the productivity of the people that is collaterizing the
currency, it should be the people that benefit by its creation. the
Congress should immediately take back the power of legislative monetary and
credit creation, with safeguards, for the benefit of prosperity of the American
People!
FAT CHANCE OF THAT
HAPPENING SINCE OUR SENATORS AND CONGRESSMEN ARE OWNED LOCK, STOCK AND BARREL
BY THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND!
THE LINCOLN
ASSASSINATION
John Wilkes Booth,
who assassinated Lincoln, was a member of the Knights of the
Golden Circle which was controlled by the bankers. Bismark, the
Chancellor of Germany, made the following comments about the death
of Lincoln. "The death of Lincoln was a disaster for Christendom. There was no man in the United States great
enough to wear his boots and the bankers went anew to grab the riches. I fear
that foreign bankers with their craftiness and tortuous tricks will entirely
control the exuberant riches of America and use it systematically to corrupt
modern civilization."
THE NATIONAL BANKING ACT OF 1863
After Lincolns'
un-borrowed Greenbacks were sufficiently and falsely discredited by
the inflation creating shenanigans of the bankers, the Greenback Act
was revoked and replaced by the National Banking Act of 1863.
Americans, once again, became the servants of the monetary powers!
The National Banking Act of 1863 was passed after Salmon P. Chase,
Secretary of the Treasury, and the Congress succumbed to the
pressure of the bankers.
Initially, the
Greenbacks and Bank Notes were both utilized as currency. However,
after President Lincolns' assassination, the end of the Greenback
came with an Act passed on April 12, 1866. This banker-supported Act
authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to sell bonds and use the
proceeds to retire all United States currency, including the
Greenbacks. At a time when the money supply should have been
increased to reconstruct the United States after the civil War, the
money powers, instead contracted it over the next ten years, as more
and more money was destroyed and not replaced. Bankruptcies and
business losses soared! This was because when money is scarce, banks
loan fewer and fewer businesses the money they need to stimulate the
economy. Then the businesses lay off workers, who lose their homes
because they can't make their mortgage payments. The bankers then
make a clean sweep with property foreclosures, picking up businesses
and citizens property for pennies on the dollar. They have created
credits out of thin air and converted them into real property!
This is exactly what is happening today, on an even more
disastrous scale. Now the bank goes bankrupt, the FDIC (a federal
government agency) seizes the bank. Then when the federal government
can no longer make its interest payments, the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank and International
Monetary Fund will seize the assets of the federal government.
Businesses and
private homes ultimately end up in the hands of the International
Government..... no private ownership, no free enterprise... instant
socialism without a shot fired! Like others who sold out their
Country to the bankers before him, Secretary of Treasury, Chase, had
a stab of conscience before dying stating: "Promoting the National Bank Act, through my agency, was
the greatest financial mistake of my life! It has built up a monopoly which
effects every interest in the country. It should be repealed." Without a
doubt, if America is to be saved, the Federal Reserve Act must also be
repealed! It is more
corrupt and detrimental to America than any Banking Act in history!
How have the monetary powers managed to buffalo the Congress and the
People for so long? Following is an example of the smoke-screen
propaganda created by the bankers and fed to Congress. This is the
type of ridiculous rhetoric that has kept banking vultures in
power for over 80 years!
House of
Representatives 88th Congress, 32nd Session: ".....it has long been one of the political facts of life that private banks must
be able to create the lions' share of the money, if not all the money. Thus
there is little opposition to the government's printing bonds and then permitting
the banks to create the money with which to buy these bonds; but
proposals that the government itself create the money instead of the bonds have
always set off tremendous political upheavals (among who? Other bankers!)
Bankers are politically very powerful. For example, Abraham Lincoln set off a political
furor when he insisted upon having the government issue $346 million
dollars instead of issuing interest-bearing bonds and paying interest.
A free thinking
American might ask, "Why is this ridiculous policy of giving the
banks power to create money out of thin air to buy U.S.
Treasury Bonds at full face value plus interest a political fact of life?" It is the American workers tax dollars that
must pay the interest and eventually the full principal on these
bonds! Who was setting off these political upheavals? Certainly
not the Americans who would no longer have to pay income taxes...
not the Americans who would no longer have their hard earned
dollars eaten away by the rampant inflation we have experienced
since the FED took over our monetary system in 1913...It is not
the American People who have had all their gold and silver stolen
by the FED and who would, without a doubt, be the greatest
beneficiaries of a debt free currency. Of course, it was and still
is, the ulterior motivated FRB banking powers themselves and the
corrupt pockets they are filling who are creating this
furor.
Why are they so
"furious"? The answer appears in this editorial which appeared in
the London Times, a paper controlled by the Rothchild banking
dynasty. It was written at the time Lincoln was taking action to
create an un-borrowed currency. READ THIS MORE THAN
ONCE! Its "arguments"
summarize the magnificent benefits of creating America's own
debt-free un-borrowed currency! These are the exact reasons that
our country should create a currency and credit of its
own.
"If this mischievous financial
policy (of creating a debt-free currency), which has its origin in the American
Republic, shall become permanent, then that government will
furnish its own money without cost! It
will pay off its debts and be without debt. It will have all
the money to carry on its commerce. It will become prosperous without
precedent in the history of the world.The
brains and the wealth of all countries will go to America. That
government must be destroyed or it will destroy every monarchy on
the globe!"
A debt-free American Currency would be a sad day in the
history of the monetary powers. However, it would be the happiest day in the
history of America! Logic confirms that America must have its own
debt-free, un-borrowed currency. Ultimately, to be lawful money, it must
be backed by gold and silver.
LINCOLN DEFIES THE BANKING VULTURES!
When the civil war was instigated, the
Union originally looked to the European Bankers to loan them money
to finance the war. Thinking they had Lincoln at their mercy, they
overstepped themselves by demanding 24%-36%
interest.
This was Lincolns' opinion of
bankers:
"The money powers prey upon
the nation in times of peace and conspire against it in times of adversity. It
is more despotic than a monarchy, more insolent than autocracy and more selfish
that a bureaucracy. It denounces, as public enemies, all who question its
methods or throw light upon its crimes. I have two great enemies, the Southern
Army in front of me and the bankers in the rear. Of the two, the one at the
rear is my greatest foe."
Angered at the bankers, in Acts of February
25th and March 4th, 1862, Abraham Lincoln persuaded Congress to
authorize the U.S. Treasury to issue $450 million dollars in United
States Notes (currency) to finance the Civil War. These issues of
currency were full legal tender and debt-free and
interest-free. Because of the green ink used on the back of
these bills, they were called "greenbacks." Lincoln not only freed
Black Americans from human slavery, he temporarily freed all
Americans from monetary slavery!
After the Congress passed this powerful
law, Lincoln said this:
"We
have given the People of this Republic the greatest blessing they have ever
had, their own currency to pay their own debts."
A debt-free currency was a blessing for
Americans and the "kiss of death" for the world bankers. The bankers
fought back furiously with incredible amounts of
money!
It is a
fallacy to think, as many do, that the greenbacks were inflationary.
This was propaganda, again used by the money powers to erroneously
convince the people a national currency was destructive. Following
is a summary of their tactics:
Within four days of the issuance of the
greenbacks, outraged bankers met to propose a scheme to lobby
Congress to strip the Greenbacks of their full legal tender status.
They succeeded by influencing Congress to add an "Exception Clause"
to the law. This clause required that duties on imports and interest
on the public debt (owed to the bankers) could be paid only in gold. The bank then added a 185% surcharge on the price
of gold purchased with Greenbacks! This meant importers had to
exchange $285 dollars in greenbacks for $100 dollars worth of gold!
This exchange, in itself, made the People think that Greenbacks must
be inflationary. Of course, the importers then had to take this 185%
increase and add it to the cost of their goods. This resulted in
dramatic price increases causing People to falsely believe
the Greenbacks were inflationary. It was the bankers and their
outrageous surcharges on Greenbacks that created the price
increases.
NOT THE GREENBACKS!
The Prosperity Of
Un-Borrowed Currency and Credit
There
were a few times in history that nations used the power of creating
an
un-borrowed currency to eliminate their debts and
bring their country into prosperity. However, when the nations
stopped borrowing money from the world bankers, a furor was always
created, not among the People but among the banking vultures. The
bankers would use their vast sources of money and power to
artificially engineer problems that they could blame on the
un-borrowed currency!
When Henry I became King of
England in 1100 A.D., he found the treasury completely empty.
England's entire supply of gold and silver had gone with the Crusaders to Palestine. Rather than
borrow money from world banks, he issued into circulation England's own
un-borrowed currency called "tallies". That was the richest time in England
's history. There was
no debt, no interest, and no inflation. For almost 700 years,
England used this un-borrowed money created and issued by the King.
This caused a prosperous utopia for the working people of England.
This is the unprecedented period in the history of creative genius
known as the Renaissance.
The death toll
for the prosperous Renaissance era came in 1694 when King William of
Orange granted a charter to William Paterson and his world banker
associates to establish the Bank of England as a fractional reserve
central bank. The Bank of England has had a direct bearing on
banking in America.
The roots of
our War of Independence can be traced back to the King's objection
to the creation and issuance by the colonies of their own paper
money, beginning with 7000 pounds issued by Massachusetts in 1690,
and culminating with the issue of 'Colonials' as an un-borrowed
currency by the Continental Congress. In 1763, Benjamin Franklin was
in England and was asked to explain why the colonies were so
prosperous, while England was suffering. He said "That's simple.
It's only because in the Colonies we issue our own money called
'Colonial Script'.
When this
conversation got back to the Bank of England, they forced England's
Parliament to pass a Bill prohibiting the Colonies from issuing
their own money. Franklin said "Within one year from the date
Parliament passed this Bill, the streets of the Colonies were filled
with unemployed Americans." Later he stated that the War of
Independence was caused by taking away the Citizens' un-borrowed
Colonials. In Franklins' words "The Colonies would gladly have borne
the little tax on tea and other matters, had it not been that
England took away from the Colonies their money, which created
unemployment and dissatisfaction." During the war, a new un-borrowed
currency called "Continentals" was issued.
The Debauched
Continentals
The English then debauched (corrupted) the Continentals by bringing
in massive shiploads of counterfeit Continentals to the colonies. This caused a
significant "overabundance" of money in circulation, which created inflation.
Although who creates the currency has no effect on inflation, too much
currency in circulation, competing for identical goods and services can
competitively increase prices.
The People did have 73 years of debt free prosperity before the
English bankers and their engineered inflation succeeded in debauching their
debt free currency! Thomas Jefferson once stated that if he could change just
one part of the Constitution, it would be to prohibit the United States from
borrowing!
