BANKING; THE SYSTEM, THE FAMILIES, THE ALTERNATIVES

"The study of money, above all other fields in economics, is one in which complexity is used to disguise truth or to evade truth, not to reveal it The process by which banks create money is so simple that the mind is repelled." - John Kenneth Galbraith With the current economic crisis unraveling before our eyes, its a good time to begin trying to understand the banking system. Unfortunately they didnt teach us about the creation of money at my school, or about the banking families in charge of promoting and facilitating the current system. Probably a wise thing; they might well have had a riot on their hands if they had. It appears that in virtually every society throughout history, the money men; the group of people in charge of issuing and controlling the money supply, not only controlled the money but also ruled the society. Fortunately many great men, politicians and the bankers themselves have all spoken on this issue and I will quote their words throughout this article. Who are we to disagree with them? History records that the money changers have used every form of abuse, intrigue, deceit, and violent means possible to maintain their control over governments by controlling money and its issuance. -James Madison Many thinkers from Aristotle to the Popes of the church have all criticised charging interest on money. The church called it Usury. Aristotle forbade interest on loans saying it was immoral. In a nutshell; people used to carry around gold coins (and other forms of wealth to trade in different societies), however people found carrying around gold to be cumbersome so they would leave the gold with bankers and the bankers would give them a paper receipt to trade with. The bankers soon realized that people never came to the bank to all at once to take their gold back, so the bankers would lend out extra paper notes to people in the form of loans and then charge them interest on the loans. This technique is called fractional reserve banking and typically they would loan out ten times the amount they held on deposit. So for every one pound of gold the bank had they would loan out ten pounds in paper notes. The bankers soon became very rich.

The bankers then realized that they could grow the economy by issuing lots of money and then retract the economy by stopping loaning anymore money and calling in the loans that they had made. So for those people who had fallen behind on payments they couldnt get another loan and so were forced to sell their assets; homes, businesses ect. During this phase of retracting the currency lots of people would be selling their assets. This creates further panic and drives prices down and the bankers would buy up everything on the cheap thus consolidating more and more wealth and real power. This cycle is termed the business cycle or boom to bust. It is however a crafty way of manipulating the economy and consolidating wealth in the hands of a few. This cycle happens constantly throughout history, and we are experiencing a new downturn or asset-grab, right now. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks...will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.... The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.... The modern theory of the perpetuation of debt has drenched the earth with blood, and crushed its inhabitants under burdens ever accumulating. -Thomas Jefferson If you study a brief history of the past few hundred years you will uncover that the Bank of England and the Bank of France, both privately owned centralized banks, held the bulk of power in Europe and through deceitful schemes established in 1913 the central private bank in America called the Federal Reserve. The dominant family in European banking and the family reputed to be secretly one of the richest and most powerful in the world is the Rothschild family. "Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes the laws." Mayer Amschel Rothschild The other well known banking families which dominate the Anglo American elite are; the Warburgs, the Schiffs, the Morgans, and the Rockefellers, amongst others.

During the American civil war President Abraham Lincoln issued a new currency and found the practice to be quite successful. The Government should create, issue, and circulate all the currency and credits needed to satisfy the spending power of the Government and the buying power of consumers. 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. -Abraham Lincoln To which the European elite responded: "If the mischievous financial policy, which has its origin in North America, shall become endurated down to a fixture, then that Government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off debts and be without debt. It will have all the money necessary to carry on its commerce. It will become prosperous without precedent in the history of the world. The brains, and wealth of all countries will go to North America. That country must be destroyed or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe." Times of London, 1863 (Thanks Times of London, glad to see you were representing the people back then, even if you dont now) Abraham Lincoln was duly assassinated. "The death of Lincoln was a disaster for Christendom. There was no man in the United States great enough to wear his boots and the bankers went anew to grab the riches. I fear that foreign bankers with their craftiness and tortuous tricks will entirely control the exuberant riches of America and use it to systematically corrupt modern civilization." - Otto von Bismarck, German Chancellor (1815-1898), after Lincolns assassination. Like I said earlier the Federal Reserve in America was established under deception in 1913, this was due to many brave men knowing and thwarting the big bankers in the years that preceded its founding. "Whosoever controls the volume of money in any country is absolute master of all industry and commerce... And when you realise 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." - James Garfield (assassinated within weeks of release of this statement during first year of his Presidency in 1881)

Indeed once these families owned the centralized banks they were able to loan and fund all other types of industry and commerce such as the diamond industry, oil and other infrastructure. This is how these families and a few more of their like minded peers have enriched their way to the tops of our societies and sit atop of the pyramid, (so to speak). Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it. President Woodrow Wilson, 1913. Its important to remember that when I talk about the big bankers or banking families I dont mean all banking entities but I do mean a select few families who hold the power of the central banks. They use their power and wealth to finance both sides of wars for instance they gave money to build up the Nazi War machine as well as the allies, the Communist Russians and Maos China. The big Bankers see themselves as internationalists and are not patriotic to any nation or its people. "When a government is dependent upon bankers for money, they and not the leaders of the government control the situation, since the hand that gives is above the hand that takes... Money has no motherland; financiers are without patriotism and without decency; their sole object is gain." -Napoleon Bonaparte, 1815 Our governments take loans from these men and the debt we the people pay off with our taxes. In the current depression we have again seen a collapse of banks and now retail as the money men restrict the supply of money. The governments, at the behest of the big bankers have proceeded to print billions and trillions of pounds and dollars, which they are giving to the banks which they own or have interests in. They will use this money, when the time is right, to buy up all the cheap assets. It is consolidation of power. The big eating the small, or in the present climate; the big eating the medium

We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis and the nation will accept a New World Order. David Rockefeller I wouldnt be surprised in the far future if there was only one bank and only one shop ect. The banker bailouts are a huge scam and the fact that the people dont understand what is going on and arent in uproar about it, shows our ignorance and powerlessness. Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The Bankers own the Earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create deposits, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take it away from them, and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear, and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But if you wish to remain the slaves of Bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create deposits." - Sir Josiah Stamp, Director of the Bank of England 1928. The above quote shows us the sadomasochistic mentality of these bankers. They are like the children with their hand in the cookie jar, gorging themselves and with no one to stop them. Perhaps they want to be stopped; no doubt they will fight to the end, for the power creating money gives them. Stopping the international bankers and alternatives to the present model: If history has taught me one thing it is that the big banker families are determined to hold on to their power and are willing to cause murder and war to achieve this end. If for instance a nation such as Britain, did manage miraculously to introduce money reform, undoubtedly bankers in other nations would club together and crush us until we reverted back to the current model. However we should certainly attempt to bring about money reform nonetheless. Fractional reserve banking backed by gold as mentioned at the beginning of the article, has long since been abandoned. The ratio of ten to one is

said to be more like one hundred to one if not one thousand to one in todays climate. One solution that the elite may offer is a return to the gold standard; i.e. money backed once again by gold as opposed to backed by nothing, which it is today. However this is no solution as gold is very scarce and the elite own or have rights to virtually all the gold. He who has the gold, makes the rules. Im not really knowledgeable enough at the moment to discuss a proper solution, however a Lincoln style situation where the government prints the money and spends it into the economy and gives it out in interest free loans may be a much fairer solution. In this scenario with the government not needing to pay off any loan to the private bankers, (which is the situation at the moment), taxes could be reduced and the public would have more money to spend as it pleases thus boosting the economy further. Sorting out the banking situation and taking the power away from these ludicrously rich and evil families should be a priority for everyone. I recently found this website promoting money reform, check it out: http://www.moneyreformparty.org.uk/ Watch the short documentary, Money as Debt: http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=money+as+debt&emb=0&aq=f# Watch the long documentary, The Money Masters: http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=money+as+debt&emb=0&aq=f# q=the%20money%20masters%20full&emb=0
