Hi all,

Funny how the people that do the most, get the least and vice versa. They all fight for worthless paper. If people truly cared, everything would be free. We only consider helping if theres something in it for us. We have to get rid of money. The world would change for the better over night.

The owners of the Fed were the richest, most powerful people in the world before the creation at jekyl Island. After the creation of the Fed, they became even more powerful. That is the essence of the main conspiracy. They have become so powerful that they can now allow plebes like us to discuss them on sites like this. .

We're here seeing if we can see the truth even when everything tells and pushes and threatens us to see the inverse as truth.

And what would you replace money with? Without it and everything is free what do you think would be produced? I think without some sort of money we would have a lot of hungry people.

Don't confuse "money" with "cash" or "currency".

I am going to repost a comment I made elsewhere. What this all leads to is... "money" is NOT synonymous with an organization who has their finger on the *creation of cash* for the benefit of those they support... and detriment of those they oppose.

You don't need a Federal Reserve type organization to have money for a society.

You do need a Federal Reserve Central Bank if you wish your "NWO" to "OWN" a nation though.


The concept and role of money will always exist because money is nothing more than our inner self's willingness to exchange one thing for another. Currency is just one outward manifestation of that inner willingness to exchange. The nature of the willingness directs how it is represented physically.

A starving person will give up millions for a bite of food... a well fed person will turn it away if it's too cold. A destitute person will obey in exchange for a title. A guilty person will obey for church forgiveness. A scared person will obey to avoid being hit or shot. A bored person will obey for a purpose. A well connected community will give up convenience to remove corruption... a disjointed community will turn a blind eye to corruption to avoid conflict.

It's the willingness that creates the symbolic "money" which is then represented via some external item or action.

Money via currency is just one fraction of the things people are willing to exchange for other things that change the world. Some would be surprised how many world changing bargains are made where money wasn't what was exchanged. Votes. Defense in a trial. A good cognac. Sex. Etc.

Thus translating your emphasized point... people's willingness to exchange one thing for another has the power to change the world.

That puts the power back where it truly starts. Our willingness.

Currently we're willing to exchange the convenience that comes with leaving the corrupt to run things... so long as they don't make it too unpleasant to live.

The system doesn't matter. Money as "currency" doesn't matter. The corrupt will offer/use whatever system keeps people calm enough so long as they have their finger on the source of people's willingness. Be it money... state authority... religious authority... guns... whatever.

have to agree, money is just another way to enslave us all with control and class oppression, at least the way it is currently used. i have always believed everyone should make the same amount of money, regardless of what you do. with that being said equability is the only we will survive.

of course the fed is behind part of the control process, the money part, the part that sucks the life out of everyone not in the club, turns people into hating each other much more effectively then most other means. they do this by creating nothing positive for the world as well. they offer absolutely nothing in return for wealth of other people, they create no product and no service whatsoever and they charge for it, how much longer will the people be fooled, i wish i knew that answer.

i do see signs of hope though, bitcoin and bankers beginning to be jailed is a step in the right direction and i think we'll get there, the land of equality that is.

Thanks to Ron Paul I've been aware of the criminal nature of the Federal Reserve for a couple of decades. Only Congress has the Constitutional authority to issue money or currency.
We never needed to borrow money from a private banking institution to run our country. We got on fine without it for 100 years.
It was the Fed that created the Great Depression by contracting the supply of money severely causing the run on the banks. It's the Fed that sets interest rates. They have controlled and milked us for 100 years now and I'll take a wild guess here but I'd bet they've siphoned off $10 Trillion or more - simply for allowing us to use their currency .
What a swindle.
I'll check out the movie when I have some time.
Thanks Bandit.

It's true. The people that make the most money work very little. All the "hard, backbreaking work" is done by people getting paid very little.

I don't know if anyone has noticed this, but as you climb the corporate ladder -- you find you are paid to do less and less.

Watch the employees outside the Child Support office. Half of them smoke.

Now go over to an engineering firm. No one there smokes, and half of them ride bikes to work.

People that get paid more have less stress, better health and live longer.

Let me end my talk by abusing slightly my status as an official representative of the Federal Reserve. I would like to say to Milton and Anna: Regarding the Great Depression. You’re right, we did it. We’re very sorry. But thanks to you, we won’t do it again.

He's technically right though... this time they're choosing the old reliable hyperinflation.

So he gets to tell the truth
while still...

I don't think so. Most people like to get rewarded in one way or another for their efforts. If everything was free I think the world would be a mess. Nothing would get done.
