Let’s turn the clock back a couple of hundred years, OK? The Founders wrote a Constitution, which gave government permission to do certain things. It wasn’t a “Ten Commandments” type of document, which prohibited things, by saying “Thou Shalt Not ” It gave the government a few limited powers, and among them was, “To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof ” (Article 1, Section 8). This is, as it was then, logical and intended to be. That lasted for a while, until Alexander Hamilton got a central bank established, which Tom Jefferson scraped. Then it got going again, and Old Hickory stopped it dead. That fixed it, until 1913.
In December, of 1913, (Please obtain and read thoroughly “The Creature from Jekyll Island”), a strange thing happened. Most of Congress was away for their Christmas break, but there were a few scalawags around, who made a quorum, and at the urging of bankers, passed the Federal Reserve Act, creating the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve is not ’federal,’ and has no ’reserves,’ in case you wondered. It is a privately owned bank, operated for a huge profit, and at the expense of every one of us.
The creation of the Federal Reserve, is in direct violation of the Constitution, which says that the government is to “Coin Money and regulate (the) Value thereof.” In other words, for this to be legal, it would require an Amendment to the Constitution. That never happened, so as far as legality is concerned, it is totally unconstitutional.
When government needed money, according to the Constitution anyway, it was to coin and regulate its value. The Founders never thought that what has happened to our ’money,’ could possibly have happened, so they said that the individual states could only use gold or silver as coinage, (Section 10). This mention of the ’states’ and not the Federal Government, may have allowed the Federal Government into the printing press paper money current commonality, but it didn’t give them permission to establish a privately owned central bank, such as is the Federal Reserve. The current calamity then, began in 1913.
I am certain that succeeding American governments, full of greedy, wanting to be re-elected politicos, would have trounced a fine system by endless spending. Politicians are amongst the worst, pathological liars and cheats, in all of history, regardless of nationality. In America, without the Federal Reserve, the paper printing press ’money,’ would have still flowed by the trillions. However, the government would have issued it themselves, and debased it. As it is, the government BORROWS its currency from the Federal Reserve, and pays the Federal Reserve INTEREST on what it should have itself produced, and paid no interest for.
Would you go to the bank, deposit your dollars, and then borrow it and pay interest on it. Would that make any sense? Of course not! That’s exactly what has been happening since 1913, and the interest on the national debt is in the trillions of dollars. The interest should not be there, if the Constitution had been followed, because there would have been no Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve, is a total rip off of the American people, by private bankers, who conned politicians into voting an unconstitutional mess of bankers into our pockets.
Of course politicians would be politicians, and they would have been voting trillions of dollars into debt since 1913, but the debt would not have been BORROWED FROM THE FEDERAL RESERVE, WITH INTEREST DUE! It would have been printed and debased by its issuing government treasury.
You have a farm, and raise cattle. Would you sell cattle to someone, and then borrow them back and pay interest on the loan? Of your cattle? Would you give your car away, and then rent it back from the person you gave it to? If you have a million dollars, would you give them away and then borrow them back and pay interest on them? How much simpler can I make it?
Another thing happened in 1913, and that was the 16th Amendment fraudulently being inserted into the Constitution, without the proper ratification as admitted by various judges. I have a pair of books, which prove this. Their title is “The Law That Never Was, Volumes 1 & 2.” These two books examine every single vote of every state, which was supposed to make the IRS a legal, Constitutional entity. The proof is overwhelming that the 16th Amendment was never legally ratified.
Since both of these things are outrages, is there a possible way to get rid of them, and free America from these pestilences? Possibly. Here’s how:
Aaron Russo is a film maker. He made one of the best comedies ever. “Trading Places,” with Eddie Murphy, was made in 1983, and is sheer genius. I must have seen it a dozen times, and am amazed every time I see it. Russo is a great film producer. Why do I mention this? Because 10 or so years ago, Russo realized that there was something terribly wrong in America. A couple of years ago, he started making a feature film, which brings home these outrages. He has finished it, and I have seen it. Russo made this film with his own money, and his purpose in doing it, as he says, is to “save America.” It may happen if the film gets shown to millions of Americans. It is a spellbinder, entitled “Freedom to Facism.”
I saw the film in Las Vegas a couple of weeks ago. If this film gets seen by millions, as Aaron hopes it will, it might be possible to save America from these and other shams, such as are mentioned in the film.
Do you worry about having a chip implanted into you, so the Feds can know your every move? Do you worry about a compulsory ID card? Those are covered in the film. Suppose this film were seen by millions; and millions realized that mass protests might bring the D.C. Gang to their senses, and abolish the Federal Reserve and IRS, just for two things. Alone, this might be a long way towards saving America. Suppose millions, after having seen this, stopped paying taxes and marched en masse, to get rid of the Federal Reserve and stop this ID card thing?
I urge everyone to “protect yourself” at the end of these columns. I feel strongly about it. I have thought for years that America was too far gone to save it. Maybe not. The power of a major motion picture, as seen by millions, might just be the spark that blew the brains out of the D.C. Gang. A column writer, such as myself preaches to the choir. It is the masses of movie goers who need to be preached to and see for themselves what fraud the IRS and Federal Reserve is, and be shocked into action. If and when this gets into theatres, the explosion will be heard far and wide. Do it and of course protect yourself.
