Informing us, is the setup for the next trick. "See how we let you think you took back government? The guys in power who were on your side and against us, were working for us!"


One of my favourite posts ever on this site! So perfectly put. Its what I keep saying: its all part of the plan.
They manipulate sides with the illusion of choice. No matter whether you work for or against the system, your actions are in their favour.

They want you to believe you're actually free and making change, because he who believes he is free, is truly enslaved.

Think of this as a sacrificial lamb, meant to be killed, to receive your derision, so that you can be manipulated by it!!

If you cant watch video, there is a congressman being interviewed and the topic is how the Federal Reserve and banks are wwork together to con every day people out of their money.

They even imply there are government positions paid off to keep the system in check and keep Fed from being audited.

If I didnt expect this kind of thing was going to happen Id think it was a step in the right direction.

S & F OP! That man in the video does a superb job explaining a subject that I've always thought was naturally complex and convoluted. I'm going to send this to the people I know and I recommend you all do the same as well.

That was the beginning and this is where we are now.



Welcome to the machine.

Dylan Ratigan's piece does a good job summarizing what has been going on for almost 100 years (US gov/Fed Reserve at least).

However, all of this information is public knowledge. None of it is a revelation.

Sadly I think the average American is so dumbed down (poor education), goof'd up (legal and illegal drugs), but most important the average American is addicted to debt. As long as the casino is open for business, the average Joe is willing to take on debt to maintain their lifestyles.

People should be marching on Washington with pitchforks and torches... oh wait American Idol is on later.

Until the political and economic engine truly seizes (maybe 5, 10 or 20 years from now), nothing will change.

"Every year the taxpayers should get a nice cut of the FEDS profits from their lending as it is us who are the money behind the deal. I mean from the lending they do to non Canadian Government(FED,PROV,MUNI)entities. If the BOC lends money to a bank, we get a cut of the interest. If the BOC lends money to a foreign government or corporation we get a even bigger cut as to restrict their lending to foreign entities who pose more risk and doesn't spend that money in our country or invest it here."


Do you realize that the Federal Reserve gives back most of its profits to the US Treasury?


"According to the board of governors" It is not 'owned' by anyone and is 'not a private, profit-making institution'. Instead, it is an independent entity within the government, having both public purposes and private aspects."[12] In particular, the US Government does not own shares in the Federal Reserve System nor its component banks, but does take all of its profits after salaries are paid to employees, a dividend is paid to member banks that is 6% of their capital investment, and surplus is put in a capital account. The government also exercises some control by appointing its highest-level employees and setting their salaries. The Federal Reserve made a record profit of 45 Billion in 2009., nearly all of which was transferred to the US Treasury. [13]"

This is not part of some hundred year plan, and claims that the Obama admin is completely guilty of what went down during the GW admin is a belief held by suckers born to be suckers, or crooks who aim to keep on looting.

This is a direct result of deregulation of the banking and financial markets, where white collar crime was legalized, and the looting of 401ks, and the economy in general began.

This is what you get when you try to implement a free market economy.

Get rid of the rules that prevent fraudulent business practices, and white collar crime runs amok, and that is exactly what has been happening since Newt deregulated banking in the late nineties.

The outrageously massive bonuses execs have been getting on Wall Street is where our money has gone. What we need to know now is, how do we get it back, and put it back into the economy to get our nation working again?

Now that is absolutely hilarious!

According to the Federal Reserve board of governors and Wikipedia? Sorry but the Ministry of Truth in Orwell's 1984 would be a more trustworthy source.

You are kidding right?

If people would get in the habit of at least attempting to get their facts straight, the world just might benefit from it. Bad information is notorious for derailing otherwise positive efforts for change.

"The Reserve Banks are not operated for profit, and ownership of a certain amount of stock is, by law, a condition of membership in the System. The stock may not be sold, traded, or pledged as security for a loan; dividends are, by law, 6 percent per year."

So where do all the huge bonuses for Wall Street execs come from?

The red res isn't making the money for themselves directly, they are enabling the con for the money market people who quietly take care of them through other means.

Don't be fooled by the sleight of hand.

Okay, you don't believe Wikipedia and you don't believe the Federal Reserve's website; so I'm likely wasting my time with this quote for the Washington Post:

"The Fed will return about $45 billion to the U.S. Treasury for 2009, according to calculations by The Washington Post based on public documents. That reflects the highest earnings in the 96-year history of the central bank. The Fed, unlike most government agencies, funds itself from its own operations and returns its profits to the Treasury. "

I'd sure as hell like to seem some major changes in the way the system works, but it is not going to happen when the arguments for change are made with inaccurate claims and broken arguments.

I realize you are new to ATS and maybe haven’t had the opportunity to read and research many threads from years past, but let me reassure you, there some very, very bright people here who have done some amazing research. One of the specific topics heavily hit is the abhorrent corruption that is the Federal Reserve, the IMF and central banks around the world. I suggest you spend some time researching the real reasons the Fed Reserve exists. At the very least read, “The Creature from Jekyll Island”.

Yes! you all now think the bad guys are on the run?

They have been exposed? This is nothing most people didn't know already, the PTB are just letting some of the steam out to make you think you have been herd so you still wait thinking something is going to happen now.

This is just a tactic of listening to a pissed off person so he feels herd and his anger lowers a little.

All the big talk! no one and i mean no one is going to do anything about any of it, they all had a finger in it and "If I go down I'm taking all of you with me" So time goes by and the stupid America will turn the channel and get on with the next show.

LOL.Whats next? just more talk.

I do realize how corrupt the system is, but this has nothing to do with my statements. I provide you links regarding what the Federal Reserve specifically does with the money it brings in and you respond with calling it hearsay.

We cannot solve problems based on faulty premises.

I have not read G. Edward Griffin's book, but I have read and listened to some of his work. I think he is a very likeable, well-meaning and knowledgeable man. Notwithstanding this fact, if he thinks the Federal Reserve is making a large direct profit from the interest it changes to member banks at the expense of the American people, he is wrong. Controlling the money supply through the manipulation of interest rates is more than enough power to bring home the bacon for the money masters. Problem is, do you really think it will be any different with the Federal Government running the show?

P.S. It is not necessarily a good habit of redlining people that come to this site by their length of membership or posting history. There is no intellegence meter for initiation and If an insider or whistleblower were to surface, it might come as an "in and out" effort.

Pretty easy to follow if the attention span can last a couple hours...

Hopefully the sheep are listening when they watch the news, because the message can be hard to hear if your not listening.

Money=Just another tool of the sheep herder to keep those sheep in line. It is PAPER, it only has value if you assign it value!

If you really prefer materialism in a monetary world, then at least look at why Lincoln was assassinated (Greenback), also Andrew Jackson had a pretty good run at it...
