I haven't really spent much time thinking about it. Just like most of us in this world. Then today when I ran across a video on youtube.com called "the money masters." It is a 22 part video ( or 3.30hours ) documentry on our money system. it is very detailed in explaining on how a central banking system is hurting us,
and how this banking system of Fractional Reserve Banking, and how this is the 3rd central bank here in the US. The Federal Reserve is not part of the government. it is a privately own bank.
"I sincerely believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people to whom it properly belongs." Thomas Jefferson
So basically when the government run out of money from our tax dollars to run the government. the government looks to the FED and borrow the money. which they have to pay back with interest. according to one website i found the interest rate for the fiscal year 2009 was $383,071,060,815.42 and in 2010 is $413,954,825,362.17. start out in this fiscal year of 2011 for the months of November $19,396,316,137.56 and October $24,142,491,931.22 for a total of $43,538,808,068.76. if you believe the experts on television at some point the interest will be more that what the government take in. which means when the debt collector come we will not have anything to give.
On September 1st, 1894, we will not renew our loans under any consideration. On September 1st wee will demand our money.
We will foreclose and become mortgagees in possession. We can take two-thirds of the farms west of the Mississippi, and thousands of them east of the Mississippi as well, at out own price... Then the farmers will become tenants as in England.
American Bankers Association, 1891, as printed in the Congressional Record of April 29, 1913
there is hope if we can get back U.S. Constitution - Article 1 Section 8. (To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures;)
we have President Andrew Jackson , President Abraham Lincoln,Representative Wright Patman (D-TX) in the 1960s, Representative Louis McFadden (D-PA),Representative Louis T. McFadden (R-TX),Senator Barry Goldwater (R-AZ) all saw this. President Jackson and President Lincoln both took them on and won. although there is a conspiracy that the money changers kill President Lincoln. how do we fix it we can get rid of The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 for starters.
another web site i just found...
According to this website, the real owners of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Reserve System are:
-Rothschild Banks of London and Berlin
-Lazard Brothers Bank of Paris
-Israel Moses Seif Banks of Italy
-Warburg Bank of Hamburg and Amsterdam
-Lehman Brothers Bank of New York
-Kuhn, Loeb Bank of New York
-Chase Manhattan Bank of New York
-Goldman Sachs Bank of New York
-Approximately 300 people, known to each other and/or relations of the "owners," who hold stock in the Federal Reserve System. They comprise an interlocking international banking cartel of wealth beyond comprehension.
as always these are thought out side the box yet shared by many.
i am a individual
i will leave you with these thought:
Sir Josiah Stamp, Director of the Bank of England in the 1920s
Bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money and control credit, and with the slick of a pen they will create enough money to buy it back again. Take this great power away from the bankers and all great fortunes like mine will disappear, for this would be a better and happier world to live in.
But if you want to continue as the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of slavery, let them continue to create money and to control credit.
President Abraham Lincoln
The Government should create, issue, and circulate all the currency and credit needed to satisfy the spending power of the Government and the buying power of consumers.
The privilege of creating and issuing money is not only the supreme prerogative of Government, but it is the Government's greatest creative opportunity.
By the adoption of these principles ... the taxpayers will be saved immense sums of interest. Money will cease to be master and become the servant of humanity.
which would you choose?? do your own homework! don't take my word.
