"international bankers" -Ben Franklin

"private banks" "homeless" -Jefferson

"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issuance of their currencies, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all their prosperity until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."

~President Thomas Jefferson, letter to Treasury Secretary Albert Gallatin (1802)

"proper spheres" -Morris

"The rich will strive to establish their dominion and enslave the rest. They always did. They always will... They will have the same effect here as elsewhere, if we do not, by (the power of) government, keep them in their proper spheres." (Gouverneur Morris of Pennsylvania)

"charter investors"? BUS Bank of the United States "primary stockholders"

The 10 Primary Stockholders in the Federal Reserve System are: 1) The Rothschilds ~ London 2) The Rothschilds ~ Berlin 3) The Lazard Brothers ~ Paris 4) Israel Seiff ~ Italy 5) Kuhn-Loeb Company ~ Germany 6) The Warburgs ~ Amsterdam 7) The Warburgs ~ Hamburg 8) Lehman Brothers ~ NY 9) Goldman & Sachs ~ NY 10) The Rockerfellers ~ NY These figures are from the original charter of the federal reserve bank back in 1913. Since that time they have sold their shares so now we have 300 banking families. But the Queen of England has and remains a 65% stockholder stake as per se the Act of 1871 in which the constitutional government declared bankruptcy and was replaced with a pseudo-corporate government controlled by the crown of england, which has been masquerading as the constitutional government ever since.

"disasterous war" -Nathan Rothschild "waterloo" "bank of england"

1811 - the charter for the First Bank of the United States expires upon Cognress voting down it's renewal. Nathan Mayer Rothschild is alleged to have been quoted "either the application for renewal of the charter is granted, or the United States will find itself involved in a most disasterous war."

2nd Bank of the United States veto Andrew Jackson Rpger B. Taney "panic session"

"widespread suffering" -Nicholas Biddle

Jackson Vs Biddle's Bank: The Struggle over the Second Bank of the United States (The Problems in American Civilization) by George Rogers Taylor (Paperback - Jun 1972)

Nicholas Biddle made the following bold statement after this event, “This worthy President thinks that because he has scalped Indians and imprisoned judges, he is to have his way with the bank. He is mistaken.” – Then he made an even bolder statement, declaring that the bank would make money scares to get congress to restore the bank. He stated “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.” This is what happened. But, Biddle blamed it all on Jackson. This led to his censure by Congress.

violation of "Monroe doctrine" "financial domination over the world" -Von Bismark

"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." - Otto von Bismark, Chancellor of Germany 1876

In December, 1861, large numbers of European Troops (British, French and Spanish) poured into Mexico in defiance of the Monroe Doctrine.

"destroy every monarch on the globe" -Times of London

The establishment Times of London stated: "If that mischievous financial policy which had its origin in the North American Republic [i.e. honest Constitutionally authorized no debt money] should become indurated down to a fixture, then that government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off its debts and be without a debt [to the international bankers]. It will become prosperous beyond precedent in the history of the civilized governments of the world. The brains and wealth of all countries will go to North America. That government must be destroyed or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe."

greenback "contraction act" silver coins Ernest Seyd "coinage act"

"united states silver commission"

The silver question in 1893: A simple explanation by Ernest Seyd (Unknown Binding - 1893)

On April 12, 1866, nearly one year to the day of Lincoln's assassination, Congress went to work at the bidding of the European central-banking interests. It passed the Contraction Act, authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to begin to retire the Greenbacks in circulation and to contract the money supply.

In 1872, a man named Ernest Seyd was given £100,000 (about $5,000,000 then) by the Bank of England and sent to America to bribe the necessary Congressmen to get silver "demonetized to further reduce the money supply." He was told that if this was not sufficient, to draw an additional £100,000, "or as much more as was necessary." The next year, Congress passed the Coinage Act of 1873 and the minting of silver dollars abruptly stopped.

The international bankers accomplished the same demonetization of silver in Germany (1871-73); the Latin Monetary Union (France, Italy, Be1gium, Switzerland) in 1873-74; the Scandinavian Union (Denmark, Norway and Sweden) in 1875-76; and the Netherlands in 1875-76. Wlthin five short years, the gold standard was thus imposed worldwide, with China being the only significant holdout.

Woodrow Wilson: Essential Writings and Speeches of the Scholar-President (Hardcover) ~ Mario DiNunzio

"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 something. They know that there is a power somewhere -- so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive -- that they better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it." -Woodrow Wilson, The New Freedom, 1913

Woodrow Wilson the president responsible for signing the Federal Reserve into law here in America even at the end of his life said himself that he felt he "was deceived into signing the Fed into law, I have unwittingly ruined my government."

Nelson Aldrich national monetary commission "club into submission" Theodor Roosevelt

Why Winston Churchill being at the New York Stock Exchange on Black Thursday, October 24, 1929, was not “quite by chance,” as he later wrote.

Why Wall Street “plunger” Bernard Baruch was Churchill’s “favorite American.”

Why on October 29, 1929, the same evening of the crash, Churchill was guest of honor at a bizarre “celebration” attended to by over 40 “bankers and master plungers” of Wall Street at the Fifth Avenue mansion of Bernard Baruch.

gold confiscation FDR $20.66/ounce Fort Knox "foreign sales authorized at $35"

Once 95% of the .999 fine gold had been removed from Fort Knox and sent abroad, President Nixon closed the gold window in 1971 by signing public law 93-110 repealing the Gold Reserve Act of 1934. Gold prices soared. Americans were finally free to buy and own the magic and forbidden metal once again. Americans had been forced to sell their gold to the government for $20.66 per ounce, then spend 37 years watching the government sell it for $35 per ounce to foreigners. Now that most of it was gone, Americans were allowed to purchase back their gold at the going rate of $150 per ounce
