Were Aliens Behind The Creation Of The Federal Reserve, In Order To Confiscate Our Gold?

reply to post by donwhite


you appear to know a lot about the Federal Reserve...so what happened to all the gold...when they recalled the backed notes and replaced them with these ones backed up by ink, paper, and debt?

I'm not trying to be a smart ass...I honestly would like to know...

"All the gold" is either at Ft. Knox, the Federal Reserve Bank in New York City or at a Treasury facility in up-state New York. I do not know the proportions at each site. The NYC bank is the one place in the world were nations "settle” their accounts. Every country has part of its gold deposited at the NYC Fed. Example: If Uganda buys something from Peru and wants to "settle" its account, they will order some Ugandan gold moved into the Peruvian vault.

South Africa keeps it a secret how gold it has on hand. Russia also keeps it a secret how much it has ready to go. In both cases, they fear putting all their gold out at one time would greatly deflate the value of gold, now trading near an all-time high, around $800 a troy ounce. (12 troy ounces make one troy pound, equal to about 85% of a 16 ounce avoirdupois pound). It has been said that the real worth of gold - size of the market versus the amount produced - is around $100 an ounce. The remaining “value” is based on its unmatched durability, its intrinsic beauty and a universal desire of humans to own some. I believe the US owns about 80 million ounces of gold, behind South Africa and Russia.

Paper money backed by confidence in the issuer is called FIAT money. I believe all countries now use only fiat money. This means people who buy and sell different currencies base their valuation on the economic condition of the issuing country, in their own opinion. The "price" or exchange rate of any currency is set by the money markets based on trading much less than 1% of the total currency.

China does not participate in the money markets. It sets the exchange rate for the Yuan. The US claims the Yuan is set too low, and we are constantly urging China to let the Yuan float. Has it occurred to you that if the Yuan floats UP, everything at Wal-Mart will go up in price? Then WHY are US policy-makers constantly urging this step by China? If China wants to subsidize the world's consumers, why it it any of our business? The only people that stand to gain, IMO, are the American co-owners of the 1000s of factories in China. Their worth would rise with the rising of the Yuan. More billionaires. The R&Fs. So who does our government “work” for?

You can e-mail the Fed and they will send you a packet with lots of brochures and some info. The US Treasury is in charge of the gold.

donwhite,
Thanks again for your informative input. But I don't think Skyshow is going to be any more satisfied with this response than I am. Not that it is your fault. But it seems like an awful lot of secrecy to me.
I know that the guv's response would probably be something like...'Matters of National Security.' But I can't help but believe that the American people have a right to know where our gold is and how much there is of it. But I seriously doubt that we will ever get an honest answer, because we are not the 'Illuminated Ones.'
