Century of Enslavement: The History of The Federal Reserve

Century of Enslavement: The History of The Federal Reserve

Do We Owe Our Soul to the Bankers? I will start with the slave rebellion. It was Nat Turner who led the slave rebellion in Virginia. Why did he lead a slave rebellion. He and his fellow slaves were tired of living under the rule of a master getting wealthy off the backs of his labor living life as a serf in that day. Now today it is not blacks slaves fighting for freedom. This form of bondage is debt slavery. Today we owe our soul to the Federal Reserve system. Lets face it. When we take out a mortgage out on a house. Credit card companies make much profit off interest more than principle when people make the minimum payment. Do we owe our soul to the Federal Reserve Banking system? I am ready to break free from this debt slave currency of the Federal Reserve Bank.

The Fed's Structure - Federal Reserve Structure and Functions - Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta The Fed's unique structure helps insulate it from short-term political pressures and balance different interests–national and regional, public and private. It is an independent central bank in that neither the president nor Congress has to approve its monetary policy decisions. At the same time, the Federal Reserve works within the government in the sense that it formulates monetary policy to achieve overall goals that Congress and the president set. To limit the influence of day-to-day political considerations, the Fed operates on its own earnings rather than on congressional appropriations, and the members of its Board of Governors are appointed for long, staggered terms. The Board of Governors The Board of Governors, located in Washington, D.C., is an independent federal government agency that oversees the Federal Reserve System. Federal Reserve Banks The 12 Federal Reserve Banks are the decentralized element of the U.S. central bank. Directors serve staggered three-year terms.

China Looks Set To Introduce Gold-Backed New World Reserve Currency www.exposingthetruth.co The US dollar has been the world’s reserve currency for many decades now, but the trends seem to indicate that China is preparing to overtake the US in regards to being the “standard” currency. The world’s monetary system has not had any direct involvement with gold since 1971, when U.S. president Richard Nixon ended the conversion of the dollar into gold. China seems to be preparing itself for a big involvement in gold, potentially backing their currency with gold. It is impossible to know exactly how much gold China has, as their central bank is more secretive in this regard compared to other countries. The mining and import numbers alone would mean that China has at least 3927 tons, but with the other additions, it brings the number up to potentially 7000 tons! Either of those two numbers would currently place China at the number two spot on the world rankings of gold holdings. So why are they doing this?

Farsnews Paul Buchheit: The United States Presides over a World Ruptured by Economic Inequality TEHRAN (FNA)- Paul Buchheit, a progressive American writer and activist, says that economic inequality is growing in the United States on a daily basis while the U.S. government continues to spend enormous amounts of money on military expeditions across the world. “The US ranks high in macroeconomic indicators, technology, higher education, and numerous other areas that highlight its global economic dominance. But within our nation the situation is quite different. Our wealth gap is worse than that of the third world. Paul Buchheit is a researcher and writer for progressive publications. He is also the founder and developer of social justice and educational websites UsAgainstGreed.org, PayUpNow.org and RappingHistory.org. What follows is the text of FNA’s interview with Mr. A: From the end of 2008 to the middle of 2013, total US wealth increased from $47 trillion to $72 trillion.

China's Demand For Gold Has Trapped The West's Central Banks Submitted by Adam Taggart via Peak Prosperity, Every once in a while, an Off the Cuff interview is so important that we decide to make it available to the entire public. This is one of those occasions. In this week's Off the Cuff podcast, Chris and Alasdair Macleod build on the insights laid out in Chris' recent mega-report last week on gold: The Screaming Fundamentals for Owning Gold. In my opinion, this podcast offers the best clarity I've heard to-date in explaining: In regard to the last point, Alasdair pithily summarized a critical dynamic that, in my opinion, is as hugely important as it is under-appreciated: In the rest of the world and particularly Asia, people do not think like we do.

From Rothschild To Koch Industries: Meet The People Who "Fix" The Price Of Gold Earlier today many were stunned when the historic, 117-year old, London Silver Fix announced that in three months it would no longer exist. However, silver is only one half of the world's two best known precious metals. Which is why we decided to take a long, hard look at that other fix: gold. The reason for this particular inquiry is because in the aftermath of the rapid and dramatic departure of the world's largest bank by outstanding notional derivatives, and Europe's biggest bank by any metric, Deutsche Bank, from the precious metal fix, something felt out of place: almost as if the participants of the "fixing" process which for so many years took place in the office of none other than Rothschild on St. The gold and silver fixings are organised through UK limited liability companies of which the member investment bank traders are directors. We don't have the answer. Below is the full list of 10 most recent directors and backups of the Gold Fixing: And from yet another year prior: 1.

$16,000,000,000,000.00 Federal Reserve Lie is Nothing Compared to Gold and Silver Market Manipulation “Given the clubby manipulation efforts we saw in Libor benchmarks, I assume other benchmarks – many other benchmarks – are legit areas of inquiry." ~ CFTC Commissioner Bart Chilton The July 2011 audit by the Government Accountability Office of the Federal Reserve exposed one of the biggest lies the US has ever been told – that the Fed had secretly given out $16,000,000,000,000.00 to US banks, corporations and foreign financial institutions everywhere from France to Scotland, but this incredible exposed deceit is nothing compared to what is coming out now about the manipulation of gold and precious metal markets. The prevarications of cabalistic bankers and their puppeteers are like the teeth of a viperfish. Though the creature looks pretty horrific, they only grow to about 12 inches long, and they like to stay deep in murky waters to avoid detection. Sure, those prehistoric-looking jaws are scary, but only as long as you stay ill-informed.
