HISTORY OF MONEY II
The 19th century the Rothschild's controlled half of the
world's wealth.
That the Rothschild's had not only taken over the Bank of England
In 1816 they backed a new privately owned Central Bank in America
ANDREW JACKSON
The American congress voted to renew the charter of The Second Bank of The U S.
Jackson responded by using his veto to prevent the renewal bill from passing
Andrew Jackson = "It is not our own citizens only who are to receive the bounty of our government. More than eight millions of the stock of this bank are held by foreigners... is there no danger to our liberty and independence in a bank that in its nature has so little to bind it to our country?... Controlling our currency, receiving our public moneys, and holding thousands of our citizens in dependence... would be more formidable and dangerous than a military power of the enemy."
Nicholas Biddle (Head of Second Banks)
Threatened with the intention of the bank if the bank was not re-chartered
Nicholas Biddle = "Nothing but widespread suffering will produce any effect on Congress... Our only safety is in pursuing a steady course of firm restriction - and I have no doubt that such a course will ultimately lead to restoration of the currency and the re-charter of the bank."
By calling in existing loans and refusing to issue new loans he did cause a
depression
In 1836 when the charter ran out, the Second Bank ceased to function. After this
Andrew Jackson said = "The Bank is trying to kill me
- but I will kill it!" and later "If the American people only understood the
rank injustice of our money and banking system - there would be a revolution
before morning..."
ABRAHAM LINCOLN
Otto von Bismark chancellor of Germany 1876
"The division of the United States into federations of equal force was decided
long before the Civil War by the high financial powers of Europe. These bankers
were afraid that the US, if they remained as one block, and as one nation, would
attain economic and financial independence, which would upset their financial
domination over the world."
Predictably Lincoln, needing money to finance his war effort
He & Secretary of the Treasury went to New York to apply for the loans
The money changers wishing the Union to fail offered loans at 24% to 36%
Lincoln declined the offer
Colonel Dick Taylor of Chicago was put in charge of finding a solution
Colonel Dick Taylor = "Just get Congress to pass a bill
authorising the printing of full legal tender treasury notes... and pay your
soldiers with them and go ahead and win your war with them also."
Lincoln = “will the people accept the notes”
Colonel Dick Taylor = "The people or anyone else will not have any choice
in the matter, if you make them full legal tender. They will have the full
sanction of the government and be just as good as any money; as Congress is
given that express right by the Constitution."
Lincoln printed 450 million dollars with green ink on the back to distinguish
them
The solution worked so well Lincoln was considering making the measure permanent
1863, Lincoln needed a little more money to win the war
Knowing Lincoln could not get the congressional authority to issue more greenbacks
The Bankers proposed the passing of the National Bank Act.
The act went through.
From this point on the entire US money supply would be created out of debt
U.S. economy has been based on government debt since 1864 & is locked in this system.
Talk of paying off the debt without first reforming the
banking system is an impossibility
Turns out the Tsar of Russia, Alexander II, was well aware of the money changers
scam.
The Tsar was refusing to allow them to set up a central
bank in Russia.
The Tsar declared that if France or Britain help the South, Russia would
consider it war
Britain and France would instead wait in vain to have the wealth of the colonies returned
While they waited Lincoln won the civil war.
Election coming next year, Lincoln waited for support to reverse the National
Bank Act
Return to the Gold Standard (1866 - 1881)
April 1866, congress passed the Contraction Act, retiring some of Lincoln's greenbacks
With only the banks to gain from this, it's not hard to
work out the source of this action
the Bankers used the control they had to cause economic instability and panic
the people
By calling in loans & refusing new ones (proven method of causing depression)
They then spread the word through the media they largely controlled
That the lack of a single gold standard was the cause of the hardship
|
while all this time using the Contraction Act to lower the amount of money in circulation |
|
Contraction |
$1.8 billion in circulation in 1866 allowing $50.46 per person
to $1.3 billion in 1867 allowing $44.00 per person,
to $0.6 billion in 1876 allowing only $14.60 per person and down
to $0.4 billion only ten years later leaving only $6.67 per person
(Through the entire period the population continued its
rapid growth)
1872 the public was feeling the squeeze, so the Bank of England, sent Ernest
Seyd
Seyd bribed congress into passing the Coinage Act which he drafted himself
Ernest Seyd = "I went to America in the winter of
1872-73, authorized to secure, if I could, the passage of a bill demonetizing
silver. It was in the interest of those I represented - the governors of the
Bank of England - to have it done. By 1873, gold coins were the only form of
coin money."
President James Garfield 1881 ="Whosoever controls the volume of money
in any country is absolute master of all industry and commerce... And when you
realize that the entire system is very easily controlled, one way or another, by
a few powerful men at the top, you will not have to be told how periods of
inflation and depression originate."
Within weeks of this statement Garfield was assassinated
Fleecing the flock = Bankers term for the process of booms and depressions
(make it possible for them to repossess property at a fraction of its worth)
International Bankers = "On Sept 1st, 1894, we will
not renew our loans under any consideration. On Sept 1st we 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 our own price... Then the farmers will become
tenants as in England..."
J.P. Morgan and the Crash of 1907
The stock market slump caused most of the over extended banks to falter
In steps J.P. Morgan offering to save the day. Morgan was
authorized to print $200 million from nothing, which he then used to help the
economy
Some of the troubled banks with less than 1% in reserve had no choice
It was accept this solution or go under
Even if they figured out the ones helping them where also the cause their problems
There is not a lot they could have done about it.
J.P. Morgan was hailed a hero.
This instability served to encourage the public to want Central Bank and a Gold
Standard
Federal Reserve Headquarters in Wash. D.C.
It is not Federal and it has no reserves. The name is a deception designed
to give this private bank the appearance of a Government Agency, in fact it is
run solely to gain private profit for its select stock holders.
Slickest moves in financial history
On 23rd December 1913 the house of representatives had past the
Federal Reserve Act, but it was still having difficulty getting it out of
the senate. Most members of congress had gone home for the holidays, but
unfortunately the senate had not adjourned, so they were technically still in
session. There were only three members still present. Lead by Congressmen
Nelson Aldrich (Grandfather of the Rockefellers) On a unanimous consent
voice vote the 1913 Federal Reserve Act was passed. No objection was made,
because there was no one there to object.
WAR = MONEY
War uses up more materials more quickly than most anything
else on earth
There it was, the newly formed Federal Reserve
Poised to produce money the U.S. Government might need from
thin air (healthy interest)
Now all the bankers need is a war, a World War
After the war every modern country will be run into unimaginable debt
