Harper and Company are just the pawns

Brian and Company are just the pawns

Just as during the 1980s “Brian and Company were just the pawns”

NOTE: I wrote this letter and The Sunday Herald published it on page 17 on July 14, 1985. It was titled “Brian and Company are just the pawns” with the subtitle “Headed For Depression.” Not much has changed over the years because Canadians gave Steven Harper and the Conservatives a majority mandate in the 2011 federal election and they are further tightening the spring that will eventually close the trap.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
(The Sunday Herald, July 14, 1985) page 17

(re-typed below for ease of reading)

“I have been telling senior citizens for years now that they have been walking into a huge bear trap, accepting as “gospel truth” the “lies and deception” hurled their way by the parliamentary politicians who are simply the “ilk” of the moneylenders. They have been brainwashed into depending on government hant-outs after retirement.

The jaws of that brutal trap are now swinging shut. They have been screaming to the federal government again not understanding the simple fact that by giving Brian Mulroney and the Progressive Conservatives a majority mandate in the 1984 federal election they were in fact tightening the spring that will close the trap.

The international moneylenders own the trap and Brian and his “boys and girls” are (unknowingly) their pawns doing as they are told. As the trap swings shut the real wealth of the nation - the land - will be taken over because neither senior citizens nor baby boomers, nor youth will be able to survive the shortage of money. The usurious money system will permit the bankers and their ilk to steal private properties and farms.

Six years ago, I started reading that which is not printed in the mainstream media and now I have a much better understanding of the direction this dearly beloved nation is headed. In addition, some of those who are controlling the “spring on the trap” have been identified. In my humble opinion, we are headed by design - not accident - for the “Granddaddy Depression” of them all. The clock of time is winding down as we fall into the yawning jaws of this killer wave of destruction. Our senior citizens, many of whom earned their livelihood as wage earners have never been taught the skills of financial independence and unless the “truth about money” is explained to the baby boomers they will become the “weight” that will close the trap on themselves and their dearly beloved children.

People from all walks of life must learn that the only possible way to avoid being trapped is to understand that the International Moneylenders and their ilk are becoming the key property owners and land owners and that if we can save our properties and save our farms we can save our nation. A lot of people are working in this direction and there have been many breakthroughs, however, to win the war millions more must be de-programmed and re-educated.

Senior citizens may kick their feet and scream parity until they drop dead from exhaustion, but since parity is an honest and honourable thing and since the whole purpose of government is control we had better not expect the parliamentary politicians to do “honest and honourable” things and therefore, parity is not the answer. Until weunderstadn what USURY does to a money system we are “babes in the woods.” INTEREST equals USURY.

Our maker gave us DOMINION OVER THE EARTH. WE will listen to abd be subservient to Big Brother and His Ilk, and do it their way, or we will listen to OUR MAKER and do it HIS way. The choice is ours. We will trust in the government or we will trust in Him.

In summary, if anyone believes that our present government will provide the answers, then that person does not understand the problem."

What Happened to Canada?

2012-01-30T16:33:00.000-08:00

by: Chris Hedges, Truthdig | Op-Ed

"What happened to Canada? It used to be the country we would flee to if life in the United States became unpalatable. No nuclear weapons. No huge military-industrial complex. Universal health care. Funding for the arts. A good record on the environment.

But that was the old Canada. I was in Montreal on Friday and Saturday and saw the familiar and disturbing tentacles of the security and surveillance state. Canada has withdrawn from the Kyoto Accords so it can dig up the Alberta tar sands in an orgy of environmental degradation. It carried out the largest mass arrests of demonstrators in Canadian history at 2010’s G-8 and G-20 meetings, rounding up more than 1,000 people. It sends undercover police into indigenous communities and activist groups and is handing out stiff prison terms to dissenters. And Canada’s Prime Minister Stephen Harper is a diminished version of George W. Bush. He champions the rabid right wing in Israel, bows to the whims of global financiers and is a Christian fundamentalist.

The voices of dissent sound like our own. And the forms of persecution are familiar. This is not an accident. We are fighting the same corporate leviathan.

“I want to tell you that I was arrested because I am seen as a threat,” Canadian activist Leah Henderson wrote to fellow dissidents before being sent to Vanier prison in Milton, Ontario, to serve a 10-month sentence. “I want to tell you that you might be too. I want to tell you that this is something we need to prepare for. I want to tell you that the risk of incarceration alone should not determine our organizing.”

“My skills and experience—as a facilitator, as a trainer, as a legal professional and as someone linking different communities and movements—were all targeted in this case, with the state trying to depict me as a ‘brainwasher’ and as a mastermind of mayhem, violence and destruction,” she went on. “During the week of the G8 & G20 summits, the police targeted legal observers, street medics and independent media. It is clear that the skills that make us strong, the alternatives that reduce our reliance on their systems and prefigure a new world, are the very things that they are most afraid of.”

The decay of Canada illustrates two things. Corporate power is global, and resistance to it cannot be restricted by national boundaries. Corporations have no regard for nation-states. They assert their power to exploit the land and the people everywhere. They play worker off of worker and nation off of nation. They control the political elites in Ottawa as they do in London, Paris and Washington. This, I suspect, is why the tactics to crush the Occupy movement around the globe have an eerie similarity—infiltrations, surveillance, the denial of public assembly, physical attempts to eradicate encampments, the use of propaganda and the press to demonize the movement, new draconian laws stripping citizens of basic rights, and increasingly harsh terms of incarceration.

Our solidarity should be with activists who march on Tahrir Square in Cairo or set up encampamentos in Madrid. These are our true compatriots. The more we shed ourselves of national identity in this fight, the more we grasp that our true allies may not speak our language or embrace our religious and cultural traditions, the more powerful we will become.

Those who seek to discredit this movement employ the language of nationalism and attempt to make us fearful of the other. Wave the flag. Sing the national anthem. Swell with national hubris. Be vigilant of the hidden terrorist. Canada’s Minister of Natural Resources Joe Oliver, responding to the growing opposition to the Keystone XL and the Northern Gateway pipelines, wrote in an open letter that “environmental and other radical groups” were trying to “hijack our regulatory system to achieve their radical ideological agenda.” He accused pipeline opponents of receiving funding from foreign special interest groups and said that “if all other avenues have failed, they will take a quintessential American approach: sue everyone and anyone to delay the project even further.”

No matter that in both Canada and the United States suing the government to seek redress is the right of every citizen. No matter that the opposition to the Keystone XL and Northern Gateway pipelines has its roots in Canada. No matter that the effort by citizens in the U.S. and in Canada to fight climate change is about self-preservation. The minister, in the pocket of the fossil fuel industry like the energy czars in most of the other industrialized nations, seeks to pit “loyal” Canadians against “disloyal” Canadians. Those with whom we will build this movement of resistance will not in some cases be our own. They may speak Arabic, pray five times a day toward Mecca and be holding off the police thugs in the center of Cairo. Or they may be generously pierced and tattooed and speak Danish or they may be Mandarin-speaking workers battling China’s totalitarian capitalism. These are differences that make no difference.

“My country right or wrong,” G.K. Chesterton once wrote, is on the same level as “My mother, drunk or sober.”

Our most dangerous opponents, in fact, look and speak like us. They hijack familiar and comforting iconography and slogans to paint themselves as true patriots. They claim to love Jesus. But they cynically serve the function a native bureaucracy serves for any foreign colonizer. The British and the French, and earlier the Romans, were masters of this game. They recruited local quislings to carry out policies and repression that were determined in London or Paris or Rome. Popular anger was vented against these personages, and native group vied with native group in battles for scraps of influence. And when one native ruler was overthrown or, more rarely, voted out of power, these imperial machines recruited a new face. The actual centers of power did not change. The pillage continued. Global financiers are the new colonizers. They make the rules. They pull the strings. They offer the illusion of choice in our carnivals of political theater. But corporate power remains constant and unimpeded. Barack Obama serves the same role Herod did in imperial Rome.

This is why the Occupy Wall Street movement is important. It targets the center of power—global financial institutions. It deflects attention from the empty posturing in the legislative and executive offices in Washington or London or Paris. The Occupy movement reminds us that until the corporate superstructure is dismantled it does not matter which member of the native elite is elected or anointed to rule. The Canadian prime minister is as much a servant of corporate power as the American president. And replacing either will not alter corporate domination. As the corporate mechanisms of control become apparent to wider segments of the population, discontent will grow further. So will the force employed by our corporate overlords. It will be a long road for us. But we are not alone. There are struggles and brush fires everywhere. Leah Henderson is not only right. She is my compatriot." (snip) ...

Roadmap to Redressing Economic Terrorism in America

2012-01-30T07:08:00.000-08:00

(Lee Wanta)

… by Gordon Duff, Senior Editor

We Weren’t Going to Stay Stupid Forever

"When the Cold War ended, a secret fund planned for by President Ronald Reagan had been set aside to rebuild America, pay off the national debt and reward Americans for decades of sacrifice.

This was the real accomplishment of his presidency, one few knew of.

As the funds finally came together, during the first years of the Clinton administration, instead of going to America, the man chosen to secure this legacy for America was put in a Swiss dungeon, then a mental hospital and eventually railroaded into prison on charges now admitted to have been “manufactured.”

Of those who work in Special Operations and such things, I am one of the very few with a background in international finance. This is not written for public consumption but I will publish it anyway, do with it as you will. I am writing to our “community.” You know who you are.

Over the past few years, amounts of money and practices none of us had imagined have been hitting the news.

We hear one day that the Federal Reserve secretly lends out trillions of dollars illegally, yet these criminal acts by the Federal Reserve, though reported, are never investigated.

In fact, there is no agency empowered to audit or control the Federal Reserve whose very existence itself no one understands and, if they did, none would approve of.

It doesn’t say whose dollars or where they went or what America got in return. We are led to believe they came out of thin air, went to places that are “none of our business” and were or were not paid back, also none of our business.

What happened? America got screwed.

Years ago, I had been asked to look after a former Reagan official named Lee Wanta. Some of you will understand this sentence, who does the asking, and what “look after”means.

I knew he had been kidnapped in Switzerland and, though a diplomat, sent to the US and imprisoned on criminal charges we knew to be a total invention.

I am simply one of many Americans that few know exist, a Marine, a Vietnam veteran and someone who spent much of his life with his head upside down.

What Happened to Lee Wanta Actually Happened to All Americans

Ambassador Wanta has court documentation that he is owed $7.2 trillion dollars, private capital designated for one purpose, rebuilding the American economy.

The money was garnered through exploiting insane errors in the pricing of currencies and exploiting the economic policies of the former Soviet Union. Some of the profits had ended up in the Bank of China and were, according to legal agreement, repatriated to the United States, what remained anyway.

Initially, $4.5 trillion was transferred to the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond while issues of law and taxes were negotiated. This is the remainder of a larger fund, transferred into the US while litigation was to determine tax liability and little else.

Secretly, a group of individuals has been using and diverting these funds.

Why does the fund exist? Wanta worked for Reagan, National Intelligence Coordinator and then was nominated by Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa at Reagan’s request to take over as Inspector General of the Department of Defense.

Instead, Reagan assigned Wanta to a project to raise huge amounts of money trading currency. Some of this is on the internet and much of it is correct. The total amount raised, based on collateral supplied by the US Department of Treasury in a secret intelligence operation was 27 trillion USD." (snip) ...

Good Foreclosure Deal Could Open the Door to Ending Up With Half of Wall Street in Jail

2012-01-29T18:50:00.000-08:00

"Last night (January27, 2012) on Countdown, Rolling Stone reporter Matt Taibbi talked about the recent foreclosure settlement deal being negotiated between the state Attorney Generals, including California’s bold Kamala D. Harris, and the banks.

“If they do this for real, if they do this like an Enron-style investigation, you could have half the luminaries on Wall Street doing prison time…. they all made enormous profits from selling mismarked and over-evaluated mortgages to unsuspecting investors,” Taibbi said.

The question in terms of broader national policy, says Taibbi, is whether the Obama Administration has really gotten the Occupy Wall Street message, or “will it be a cosmetic investigation” only?" (snip) ...

How I buy groceries without cash (Equal Dollars)

"Philadelphia locals volunteer their time to earn Equal Dollars, an alternative currency that can be spent on food and medicine." (snip) ...

More About "Equal Dollars"

"Equal Dollars Community Currency is one of several local currency communities across the US & Canada. As with other local currencies, Equal Dollars is meant to empower communities, allowing merchants and consumers to lay the foundation for an alternative economic future for their communities.

Equal Dollars Community Currency distinguishes the local businesses that accept the currency from those that do not, building stronger relationships and a greater affinity within the community. The people who choose to join the community and actively use the currency make a conscious commitment to buy within the community first. The members are taking personal responsibility for the health and well being of their community by laying the foundation of a truly vibrant, thriving local economy.

Equal Dollars will not, and is not intended to, replace federal currency. But they can alleviate the need to solely rely on often-scarce federal dollars as a means to obtain goods and services to live.

It is particularly important to note that Equal Dollars is a non-interest bearing currency; it does not create wealth but is rather designed to stimulate the exchange of goods and services within the community. Their use will help strengthen the local economy, favoring locally owned enterprises, local manufacturing, and local jobs, and reducing the region's dependence on an unpredictable global economy."

Farmers vs Monsanto

2012-01-29T17:53:00.000-08:00

"On January 31, family farmers will take part in the first phase of a court case filed to protect farmers from genetic trespass by Monsanto’s GMO seed, which contaminates organic and non-GMO farmer’s crops and opens them up to abusive lawsuits. In the past two decades, Monsanto’s seed monopoly has grown so powerful that they control the genetics of nearly 90% of five major commodity crops including corn, soybeans, cotton, canola and sugar beets.

In many cases farmers are forced to stop growing certain crops to avoid genetic contamination and potential lawsuits. Between 1997 and 2010, Monsanto admits to filing 144 lawsuits against America’s family farmers, while settling another 700 out of court for undisclosed amounts. Due to these aggressive lawsuits, Monsanto has created an atmosphere of fear in rural America and driven dozens of farmers into bankruptcy.

Please join us in standing up for family farmers everywhere against Monsanto's abusive seed monopoly." (snip) ...

"Food Democracy Now! is a grassroots community dedicated to building a sustainable food system that protects our natural environment, sustains farmers and nourishes families.

Our food system is fundamentally broken. A few companies dominate the market, prioritizing profits over people and our planet. Government policies put the interests of corporate agribusiness over the livelihoods of farm families. Farm workers toil in unsafe conditions for minimal wages. School children lack access to healthy foods--as do millions of Americans living in poverty. From rising childhood and adult obesity to issues of food safety, air and water pollution, worker's rights and global warming, our current food system is leading our nation to an unsustainable future.

Food Democracy Now! members have a different vision. We know we can build a food system that gives our communities equal access to healthy food, and respects the dignity of the farmers who produce it. We believe in recreating regional food systems, supporting the growth of humane, natural and organic farms, and protecting the environment. We value our children's health, worker's rights, conservation, and animal welfare over corporate profits. And we believe that working together, we can make this vision a reality in our lifetimes.

Food Democracy Now! members organize both through online campaigns and in-person actions across the country. Our first campaign succesfully put officials endorsed by FDN members in the Obama administration, with the support of these original signers. Now over 250,000 people strong, we invite you to Join Us."

Why Foster UsuryFree Local Currencies?

2012-01-29T09:58:00.000-08:00

Local communities are invited to create and spend a usuryfree community currency - preferably a usuryfree time currency. Do this NOW - instead of continuing to rely on usury-based, debt money (federal dollars).

Local consumers watch this usury-based, debt money (federal dollars) come to your respective local communities, pass through a few consumer’s and business people’s hands who use it to ‘buy and sell’ products and/or services.

Then these paper notes or electronic blips of usury-based, debt money leave the local communities to fund the war machine of their (the global, usury bankers) New World Order.

A usuryfree time currency, by contrast, will stay in your respective, local community and with a high local velocity, it will provide mutual benefit for a long time, with all of those local consumers and small to medium-sized, business owners who choose to participate.

Remember, their usury-based, debt money model (federal dollars) is not sustainable and it is the usury-based, debt money that keeps debtors in financial bondage to their creditors - the global banking cartel of usurers - for generation after generation.

Debtors are becoming aware that because of the design flaw of usury, there is never enough money in circulation to repay both the principal and the usury (interest) portion of any loan or mortgage since the usury (interest) portion of the loans and mortgages is never printed and issued into circulation.

By contrast, any usuryfree time currency is sustainable, since it is free of usury (interest) and it fosters local trading and exchanges of products and/or services. Indeed, a usuryfree time currency will expand local commerce of any community where local debtors choose to participate.

Obama hosts George H.W. and Jeb Bush at White House

2012-01-29T07:47:00.000-08:00

NOTE: One wonders what topics were discussed? Perhaps they talked about the shifting of "President" power to "Jeb Bush." I have been reading some online articles that suggest their (The New World Order Elites) plan is to find a way to put Jeb Bush in power in the 2012 election. Like I have been sayin' "Same machine - different driver" and the masses think they have a choice :(

By DONOVAN SLACK

"Unbeknownst to the press, President Obama met Friday evening with former president George H.W. Bush and his son, former Florida governor Jeb Bush, in the Oval Office.

White House officials did not list the meeting on the president's schedule but released a photo on Flickr. According to the photo's time stamp, the meeting occurred shortly after 5 p.m., about the time the president returned to the White House from a fundraiser.

When asked what the men discussed and why it wasn't on the schedule, the White House released a statement saying, “The three men enjoyed a personal visit in the Oval Office – as they have done on previous occasions when President Bush is Washington.”

The Bushes are in town to attend the exclusive Alfalfa Club dinner Saturday, an annual get-together for Washington power brokers that Obama also is scheduled to attend, according to the Associated Press.

The meeting came at an interesting time politically, just one day after Obama, in an interview with ABC News, blamed predecessor George W. Bush for policies that brought on the greatest recession since the Great Depression. He also blamed him for initiating the expansion of food stamp rolls.

Jeb Bush has also played a critical role in the GOP presidential primary contest in Florida -- primarily by saying he wouldn't play a role. His endorsement would have been key in the race, currently neck and neck between Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich, but Jeb Bush said last week that he would remain neutral." (snip) ...

What Happened At Obama-No-Show Trial

2012-01-27T10:23:00.000-08:00

Sworn testimony reveals fake Social Security number, other gaps

by JEROME R. CORSI

NOTE: The mainstream electronic and print media ignored this significant news story. The "Obama-No-Show Trial" was held on January 26, 2012 in Georgia.

"Georgia citizens today delivered sworn testimony to a court that Barack Obama is slam-dunk disqualified from having his name on the 2012 presidential ballot in the state, because his father never was a U.S. citizen, which prevents him from qualifying as a “natural-born citizen” as the U.S. Constitution requires for a president.

The historic hearing was the first time that a court has accepted arguments on the merits of the controversy over Obama’s status. His critics say he never met the constitutional requirements to occupy the Oval Office, and the states and Congress failed in their obligations to make sure only a qualified president is inaugurated. His supporters, meanwhile, argue he won the 2008 election and therefore was “vetted” by America.

Discover what the Constitution’s reference to “natural born citizen” means and whether Barack Obama qualifies, in the ebook version of “Where’s the REAL Birth Certificate?”

The hearing was before Judge Michael Malihi of the Georgia state Office of State Administrative Hearings. In Georgia, a state law requires “every candidate for federal” office who is certified by the state executive committees of a political party or who files a notice of candidacy “shall meet the constitutional and statutory qualifications for holding the office being sought.”

State law also grants the secretary of state and any “elector who is eligible to vote for a candidate” in the state the authority to raise a challenge to a candidate’s qualifications, the judge determined.

Citizens bringing the complaints include David Farrar, Leah Lax, Thomas Malaren and Laurie Roth, represented by California attorney Orly Taitz, who has handled numerous cases concerning Obama’s eligibility; David Weldon represented by attorney Van R. Irion of Liberty Legal Foundation; and Carl Swensson and Kevin Richard Powell, represented by J. Mark Hatfield. Cody Judy is raising a challenge because he also wants to be on the ballot.

Several of the attorneys introduced passages from Obama’s own writings that Barack Obama Sr. was his father. They then introduced evidence that the father never was a U.S. citizen, that he was a citizen of Kenya at the time of his son’s birth and was therefore a subject of the United Kingdom.

His father’s citizenship, they said, precludes him from serving as president, since the Founders required that officer to be a “natural-born citizen,” not just a “citizen.”

The term is not defined in the Constitution, but evidence introduced included a passage from a 1875 Supreme Court opinion that states:”The Constitution does not in words say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners.”

Weldon explained in his presentation that the 14th Amendment granting citizenship did not redefine Article 2, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution, which includes the requirement for a president to be a “natural-born citizen.”

The attorney argued also that another later court case referenced citizenship in the dicta, not the central holding in the case, and thus was not controlling.

Many of Irion’s arguments were echoed by Hatfield, a strategy that at least one constitutional expert, Herb Titus, said was sound.

Titus taught constitutional law, common law, and other subjects for nearly 30 years at five different American Bar Association-approved law schools. From 1986 to 1993, he served as the founding dean of the College of Law and Government in Regent University in Virginia Beach, Va. Prior to his academic career, he served as a trial attorney and a special assistant United States attorney with the United States Department of Justice in Washington, D.C., and Kansas City, Mo.

He told WND the fact that Obama’s father was a Kenyan citizen should be sufficient.

“That is much stronger than the question of where he was born,” he said. “That alone is evidence. … They don’t need anything additional.”

Taitz argued multiple prongs of the case: that the birth certificate released by the White House is a forgery; that he probably has had several citizenships, such as when he was listed in Indonesia as an Indonesian citizen; and that he’s been known under the names Obama, Soetoro and Soebarkah.

She also had a private investigator, Susan Daniels, testify that it appears Obama is using a fraudulent Social Security number.

Documents and imaging expert Doug Vogt asserted the birth documentation released by the White House was a creation of a software program and not a scan of any original document. That would mean Obama’s documentation, despite what the White House released in April, is still under wraps.

Obama and his attorney boycotted the proceedings, issuing a letter to Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp that the judge was letting attorneys “run amok.” The statement came after Malihi refused to quash a subpoena for Obama’s testimony and his records, which effectively was ignored by the White House.

The judge is expected to review the evidence and make a recommendation to the state whether there is reason to be concerned about Obama’s name on the 2012 ballot.

He apparently will have no defense evidence, but Kemp had warned Obama about that.

Kemp said late last night in a response to a demand from Obama’s attorney that he simply order the hearing stopped.

“Anything you and your client place in the record in response to the challenge will be beneficial to my review of the initial decision; however, if you and your client choose to suspend your participation in the OSAH proceedings, please understand that you do so at your own peril.”

WND reported earlier on the stunning decision from Malihi, who refused to quash the subpoena even after Obama outlined his defense strategy for such state-level challenges, which have erupted in half a dozen or more states already.

“Presidential electors and Congress, not the state of Georgia, hold the constitutional responsibility for determining the qualifications of presidential candidates,” Obama’s lawyer argued. “The election of President Obama by the presidential electors, confirmed by Congress, makes the documents and testimony sought by plaintiff irrelevant.”

But the judge thought otherwise.

“Defendant argues that ‘if enforced, [the subpoena] requires him to interrupt duties as president of the United States’ to attend a hearing in Atlanta, Georgia. However, defendant fails to provide any legal authority to support his motion to quash the subpoena to attend,” he wrote in his order.

“Defendant’s motion suggests that no president should be compelled to attend a court hearing. This may be correct. But defendant has failed to enlighten the court with any legal authority,” the judge continued.

“Specifically, defendant has failed to cite to any legal authority evidencing why his attendance is ‘unreasonable or oppressive, or that the testimony … [is] irrelevant, immaterial, or cumulative and unnecessary to a party’s preparation or presentation at the hearing, or that basic fairness dictates that the subpoena should not be enforced,’” the judge said.

Jablonski also had argued that the state should mind its own business.

“The sovereignty of the state of Georgia does not extend beyond the limits of the State. … Since the sovereignty of the state does not extend beyond its territorial limits, an administrative subpoena has no effect,” the filing argued.

Titus said, “‘Natural born citizen’ in relation to the office of president, and whether someone is eligible, was in the Constitution from the very beginning. Another way of putting it; there is a law of the nature of citizenship. If you are a natural born citizen, you are a citizen according to the law of nature, not according to any positive statement in a Constitution or in a statute, but because of the very nature of your birth and the very nature of nations.”

If you “go back and look at what the law of nature would be or would require … that’s precisely what a natural born citizen is … one who is born to a father and mother each of whom is a citizen of the U.S. or whatever other country,” he said.

“Now what we’ve learned from the Hawaii birth certificate is that Mr. Obama’s father was not a citizen of the United States. His mother was, but he doesn’t qualify as a natural born citizen for the office of president.” (snip) ...

2012-01-26T18:24:00.000-08:00

Jesus was a beautiful Jew who was killed by the elite Jewish “money changers” who were per ping the fraud of usury on the People. The ultimate pacifist got violent just once, and only with one group. As the “money changers” are and have always been the REAL POWER behind the throne; Jesus condemned Himself. He didn’t care because He knew his soul was immortal.

We need to give up our fears, and take on the “money changers” ourselves. Not by force, but peacefully removing our energy from their usury based systems. We must find the courage of Christ. Remember this single idea this Christmas.

WE CAN DO THIS! WE MUST DO THIS!

Jesus was killed for the same reason that most people are killed. Usury. Caesar/Lincoln were killed because they resisted usury. The Bible warns of usury 15x. The Quran forbids the same(riba). Elite Jewish “money changers” permit usury on gentiles.

Usury is a mathematic fraud just like a Ponzi. Jesus got violent with the elite Jewish “money changers”. The “money changers” are a “den of thieves” as USURY has 100% chance to destroy. It is IMPOSSIBLE for all borrowers to pay their debts as interest money is NOT created. Some will now argue that Jesus was angry as ANY business was being conducted “in the Temple”. Is ANY business theft? Of course not. Jesus called them “thieves”. Usury is ALWAYS theft. Just like a Ponzi.

Usury destroys even on gold/silver money. If the “money changers” loan the People $1M gold at 1%, the total debt is $1,010,000. But, how do the People pay $10k in gold interest money? IE: How do you pay $1,010,000, if only $1,000,000 is in circulation?

All borrowers cannot pay the usury back. Most WILL pay their loans back, but some are guaranteed to lose their homes, businesses, governments, cars, independence, jobs, and their dignity. The People must either default, and lose their collateral; or borrow more.

The original sin of man is USURY. The “money changers” usury is the cause of war, hate, famine, bailouts, and loss of sovereignty. Usury is the funding source for tyranny across the globe. Usury the debt Ponzi in which the world is collapsing into.

Usury destroys when we have big government, small government, or even NO government. Usury will confiscate the world on behalf of the “money changers” who can cloak themselves in any political party, movement, revolution, religion, race. “Money changers” can be “End the Fed”, 9,11 truth, or the opposite. “Money changers” need only 1 thing to survive as parasites on the producers of the world. “Money changers” need usury only.

Usury was the cause of the Holocaust, and the sacrifice of beautiful Jews on behalf of the Rothshchilds, and Zionism. Did you know that elite Zionist Jews financed Hitler through the “Transfer Agreement”? “Politics makes strange bedfellows” and both Hitler, and the Zionists wanted the Jews out of the comforts and culture of Europe, and into the dust of Palestine.

If you ever wonder about the truth of the Zionists control over our money. Just notice the Star of David on the back of a buck. If you ever wonder about the Zionists control of our military, just notice the Star of David on our service members’ swords. If you ever wonder about the Zionists control of Hollywood, just listen to Adam Sandler’s “Hanukkah Song”. Did you know the Israel trades arms and oil with its “arch enemy” Iran?

Ask yourself why there are so many duel US-Israeli citizens in our government. No other nation enjoys that status. “A slave cannot serve to masters”.

Did you know that Mossad perped 9.11 as a “false flag” to frame Muslims just like the USS Liberty? Are you ready to face the ugly truth about the real power behind the throne?

Libya was recently attacked because it had a riba/usury free banking system which did not have a national debt to the Zionist controlled IMF. The People go to war to make the world safe for the Rothschilds’ private usury based money.

Additionally our wars are fought to disarm the People on behalf of the bankers’ created UN. Wars are fought to destroy natural God-given rights. Believe it or not, God gave Muslims natural rights too. One day this will come to the US. The USURERS can’t have armed slaves running around.

Now, we live in a nation completely divided where the 1% rule. They have divided and conquered by pitting the slave vs the slave.

“Allow me control the money and I care not who makes the rules” -Amshell Rothschild.

We must be careful to realize the it is the elite in any society which perp the evil of USURY. We must “love the sinner(parasitic usurer bankers), and hate the sin(usury). We must not support more HATE, and violence. We have had plenty and we are LESS FREE.

Please think of how much consumerism will be funded with usury. Think of how many families will be broken by it. Again, it is IMPOSSIBLE for all borrowers to pay. When they don’t the parasites will gain their assets. The People will go homeless. Businesses WILL be bankrupted.

If we “End the Fed”, and have “sound money” the US will still be dependent/destroyed by usury. Even if the money is based on gold/silver. Again, how do the People pay $1,010,000 in gold, if $1M gold is borrowed at 1%?

The People cannot, and they go bankrupt as the US did in 1933 under a gold/silver money system. Now, Dr Ron Paul supports the Rothschilds gold/silver money system. AKA: Paul is loyal opposition. Paul does not threaten the banksters’ usury scam.

Gold/silver are commodities of elite control just like oil. Are we energy free when dependent on oil? To be free the People must have THAT commodity themselves. Energy independence for an individual is a solar roof, powering a plug in hybrid that they purchased each willingly. Who wouldn’t want that, so one doesn’t have to suck up to the State?

Some Paul sycophants will say Paul wants “competing currencies” created by private banks. Of course these banking corporations will “compete” like the corporate media does to tell use the truth. LOL! ….LOL! ….LOL!

Since all money will be created by private usury it will gain the world through color of law. The bankers can thrive even if there is NO GOVERNMENT.

People willingly engage in USURY fraud because the bankers PR has been so good to support it. Paulistas will PRETEND to fight the private bankers, but DEFEND to their death the bankers right to perp usury! Usury=Fraud just like a Ponzi. Usury just has much better PR. Follow my comments and enjoy the Paul supporters defending usury. Usually, they just call me names as they can’t support their position.

The Paulistas have fallen for the bankers’ phony savior, just like the ObamaNuts did for theirs. Each will wake up to the fraud eventually. “In God We Trust” not phony suits. Don’t fall for the “false Idols” of gold, or Paul. Believe in IDEAS. Know too that “America was built by men in blue jeans, and destroyed by men in suits”. It will be rebuilt by men/women in blue jeans. IE: Elections are there to maintain illusion of freedom.

The US has actually been a corporation since 1871. “Reconstruction” means much more than you think. So changing the vestigial head of the bankrupt, corporate war democracy will change NOTHING. Whoever controls the monetary system in any society is the real government.

Argue this with a Paul sycophant, and they will defend usury(fraud) as some necessity. This is untrue as the world can exist without usury, and still have USURY FREE LOANS. This can be done without force, voluntarily. Ithaca, NY has had a local currency created without usury based on time for 20 years. IthacaHours.com actually LOANED USURY FREE MONEY to the local credit union.

Perhaps Paul is just ignorant about usury. He does seem to be like a very nice guy. But, so does Glenn Beck, and Obama. The bankers always know how to get us to beg for their phony solutions. They are experts at manipulating the sheep and revolutions which THEY finance. Either way the ignorant, or loyal opposition do not deserve to be “leaders”. The “authorities” are almost always phony. Think of your local banker who often know NOTHING about how money is CREATED.

Did you know the bankers just invent the money for a mortgage when we sign the promissory note? The are into profit after the first payment, and have zero risk. Then they add the impossible to pay USURY. Then THEY take the house even though the PRODUCER/owner/borrower put more energy into the house.

Funny, how none of the phonies talk about this on the TV, radio, newspaper, MOST of the internet.

Let’s take this technology and have usury free home loans that we pay off in 8 years. Let’s have a Universal debt Jubilee which the Bible recommends for societies which have been ravaged by usury. How’s THAT for HOPE in the new year? What would THAT do for your personal balance sheet? What would that do to get the People working again?

Don’t look for these SOLUTIONS to be offered by the bankers’ austerity peddlers on TV. And don’t buy into the phony Ron Paul Revolution. Don’t be duped by the banker’s next “savior de jure” wrapped in the Constitution. Don’t support the bankers’ brainwashing of the need for usury.

Please do support usury free money creation, and FOCUS on this issue as we honor Christ this Christmas. Jesus was the coolest guy ever, and NO ONE had more courage than Christ “before the cross”. Imagine the fear you would have when He was to be crucified by the “money changers”. But, His faith never broke even though His closest betrayed Him. USURY is the original Sin of mankind.

Let this TRUTH into your soul. Push the HATE of the bankers’ patsies out of your heart(Muslims). Do not HATE your Brothers and Sisters, as Jesus would ask. Hate USURY.

If we UNITE in 2012 against USURY, this new year will be known as the greatest in human history. We will be the “greatest generation”.

Let’s do this so that YOUR kids don’t go die in WWIII. Let’s do this so that the “money changers” don’t sacrifice more beautiful Jews. Let’s do this because “we are the leaders we have been waiting for”. Let’s do this so we don’t rely on saviors like helpless slaves.

Let’s do it for Jesus, Mohammad, and Moses. Let’s do it for our own immortal souls." (snip) ...

My Fight Against The 'Smart' Meter

2012-01-26T18:03:00.000-08:00

By Devvy Kidd

If you are unfamiliar with my case, I've already written three articles on this disaster; see here. I still have my old analog meter; the meter reader dutifully comes once a month. I unlock the gates, escort him to him to the meter and back out the gate; on go the locks.

As you can see in article one at the bottom, there are links to more than a dozen articles from experts in the field of electro magnetic frequency radiation technology. For those of us who have zero understanding in that field, I've now spent more than 200 hours reading and sorting opinions from scientists and doctors who have decades of experience. All this 'dirty energy' is killing us and that's not hyperbole.

I'm not one of those people who hate the big utility companies. I am grateful to live in a country where we have heat and air conditioning piped right into our homes. Utility companies are just like any other business. They have to make a profit in order to stay in business, but they should not be allowed to expose us to technology that is so incredibly dangerous to the human body. I'm not going to rehash the money issue because that's what this is all about - tens of billions of dollars at stake for the utility companies.

Money corrupts as we all know and Hawaii is a prime example. Hawaii originally said no to the 'smart' grid because it wasn't worth the investment. The 'smart' grid is no good unless every business, home and school in this country is wired with one of those deadly 'smart' meters. Well, money talks:

Smart grid technology rollout stalls in Hawaii - July 2010

Surprise, surprise!

"The Hawaii PUC has approved Hawaiian Electric's request to use a $5.3 million federal stimulus grant to install smart grid technology to portions of the electric system in urban Honolulu."

The so called 'smart' meters, referred to by utility companies as advanced metering systems are being "deployed" all over this country against the wishes of homeowners for very good reason. One: They are, in the words of one scientist - ticking time bombs for the human body. Even dogs are being adversely affected as well as livestock which feeds the country. Two: They do not save energy; in fact, utility bills have gone through the roof in many states. Third: 'Smart' meters aren't smart, but in reality they are warrantless wire tapping of your personal life.

There is a very important case out in Portland, Oregon. Parents are suing the school district over all the "wi-fi" technology. If you take the time to read the statements of the experts submitted for that case, you will come to understand America's children and teachers are at serious risk from all the 'dirty energy'. Sadly, those deadly meters are required on all federal buildings exposing federal employees.

Here are more expert opinions as well as some other items - and if you think cell phones are safe, think again:

Portland case courtesy of Curtis Bennett, Director of Operations, Chief Science Officer, Interprovincial Journeyman Electrician (Red Seal), Engineering Technologist, Adjunct Faculty, IHF & GEDI, Thermografix Consulting Corporation; he lives in British Columbia. Curtis has been an expert witness for the Canadian Parliament on the dangers of Wi-Fi and Smart Meter Frequencies. As a government trained electrical professional, he reported to the Canadian Parliament's Standing Committee on Health that their federal and international codes was missing the mechanism linking the frequencies to adverse health effects. Curtis email me this the other day:

"Electromagnetic fields used for radio frequencies are just EMFs within a specific range. "In Canada, the standard for acceptable public exposure to radio frequency is governed by Health Canada in Safety Code 6, which has the same specification as the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC)" Here is a link to Safety Code 6 (2009)

"Although Safety Code 6 and international standards are based on 3 decades of scientific literature, codes admit the mechanism linking the frequencies to adverse health effects has been missing.

"I have attached a letter received by the medical education administrator where the dangers of these frequencies is lectured for continuing education credits medical professionals require for licensing. Whether Wi-Fi in schools or smart meters, the frequencies are illegal and hurting people as well as interfering with electrical devices inside the building. Here is a link to Central Maine Power admitting their smart meters are interfering with electrical devices inside buildings. They have settled claims and set up a special unit but can't rule out the interference with pacemakers, health monitoring equipment, life alerts, baby monitors, vulnerable babies, causing harmonics, violating building codes, etc.

"The letter can be printed or forwarded, education credits means it is now accepted medical education and the science had to be substantiated as well as approved before lecture. It is important to forward to keep people, corporations, schools, government and medicine fully informed. The application of Safety Code 6 (same as FCC) changed with the mechanism reported linking the frequencies to adverse health effects.

"People with EHS (EMF Radiation) can show the letter to their medical professionals, CE credits is the language they need to hear in support of their diagnosis. It is no longer opinion, it is accepted and approved medical education.

"Wi-Fi is in US Courts and myself in my capacity as well as other provided declarations under threat of perjury. The link below can take you to the filings and a code that never considered people to be electrical, they were treated as tissue heating only. The commission, judge and lawyer require this information and the lead lawyers information is on the filings. Every minute people are radiated is 60 seconds too long, there are reasons we wire things including protecting people as well as equipment. Wi-Fi as another example is radiating school to avoid the required infrastructure costs to upgrade schools. It seems like a wise idea but isn't and denies the world billions in economy from construction." (snip) ...

Paper money doesn’t counterfeit, people counterfeit

2012-01-26T10:04:00.000-08:00

By Wayne Walton aka "K-Roc, The Truth Hammer"

“Guns don’t kill people, people kill people”. Guns are just technology which can be used for good, or evil. True? Individuals who perp evil must be accountable.

Paper doesn’t steal(counterfeit), people steal(counterfeit). Counterfeit=inflation. Money is just a technology which can be used for good, or evil. Paper money is just a technology which can be used for good, or evil.

Currently, a private company called the Federal Reserve is perp-ing evil with paper money as they use them to steal. This is very important. The Fed is just some guys with a cartel on money creation. You and your neighbors have just as much a right to create money as they do.

A Federal Reserve “NOTE” is borrowed into circulation as a debt with interest. Prior to that gold/silver were borrowed into circulation too. Even though the coins did not say “NOTE” on them; the bullion was borrowed from the “money changers”. The US had a national debt PRIOR to 1913 when the Fed was established. The US was on a gold/silver money system AND in debt. Now, the “money changers” are brainwashing the People to change from paper to gold/silver money again. They are doing this by blaming all the problems THEY caused on paper. Somehow, paper is the problem, not their actions. They are making the claim that “paper” is worthless.

Wouldn’t YOU want 2 PAPER Super Bowl tickets? So, PAPER tickets Super Bowl tickets are valuable. What would make PAPER Super Bowl tickets WORTH-LESS? What if the ticket issuer created 10x the capacity of the stadium where the game was being held? That’s called fraud/theft/counterfeiting. Punish the crime perped by individuals, not the technology. People perp evil which made the PAPER tickets WORTH-LESS.

It is the people at the Federal Reserve who make our paper money WORTH-LESS.

These SAME people were in charge of our monetary system when it was backed by gold/silver. The “money changers” have been around for 1000′s of years. They can steal on gold, silver, paper, or digital money.

They offer the People money reform today as: Do you want to continue to borrow paper/digital FRN’s from us with interest? Or, do you want to borrow gold/silver from us with interest? In either case there will be MORE DEBT owed, than money to pay the debt. This is EXACTLY why individuals, corporations, governments, and businesses are bankrupted across the planet. When a government/nation goes bankrupt it is no longer sovereign.

The CREDITOR makes all the big decisions when any entity is in bankruptcy. The DEBTOR will PRETEND it is sovereign just for good PR. The DEBTOR wishes to maintain the appearance of sovereignty. The CREDITOR wants the DEBTOR to appear to be sovereign. It’s better for BOTH to maintain good PR. Good PR is necessary so the sheep keep paying the phony debts.
There are powerful individuals who want us to be dependent. The oil cartel wants us to be dependent on their commodity for energy. The “money changers” want us to be dependent on commodities of gold/silver for money. The truth? The People are the gold!

The World Bank, Glenn Beck, and Ron Paul all support a gold/silver commodity money system which will make the People dependent on the elite.

http://www.reuters.com/article/2010/11/08/us-gold-zoellick-idUSTRE6A70D720101108

The US has NEVER been truly sovereign as it was REQUIRED to pay Revolutionary War debts to be paid back in gold/silver. The Rothschilds financed both sides of the “War for Independence” as they always do for major conflicts. They financed the British, and the former colonists through France.

The Constitution REQUIRES gold/silver money by decree. Gold/silver money is therefore money by decree, or royal “fiat”. Gold/silver money is FIAT as it is REQUIRED by the State. Does the State REQUIRE oil commodity for energy?

There were no gold/silver mines in the former American colonies at the time the Constitution was written. Therefore, the US was NOT independent as it required gold/silver money. How could the new US be sovereign, if its money was based on a commodity which it lacked?

Similarly, we cannot be “energy independent” if we base our society on a commodity which we lack. We cannot be “money independent” if we base our society on a commodity which we lack. If you want money to be scarce, base it on a commodity which is scarce.

Now, the gold/silver/hard money advocates will then say that there is PLENTY of those commodities in the US. Those commodities DO EXIST in the US. However, they owned by private interests. All the land in the US was pledged as collateral to the “money changers” during the 1933 bankruptcy. Everything you THINK you own is actually owned by the “money changers” even once the loan is payed off. We pay rent(property tax). So, when we mine gold/silver in the US; the commodity/bullion will be owned by the “money changers”. Again, the “money changers” are the creditor of the 1933 bankruptcy. The CREDITOR controls the assets of any bankrupt debtor(US).

The US had a national debt PRIOR to 1913 and the Federal Reserve while on a gold/silver money system. No nation is sovereign, if it has a national debt. For a nation to be sovereign it must control its own monetary system. Only during Andrew Jacksons term did the US pay off its national debt for a very short time. IE: The US has only be sovereign for a very short time in its history. “The borrower is slave to the lender”

Gold, silver, uranium, diamonds, and oil are all just commodities of control by the elite. In order to be independent the People must control the commodity which backs the money.

Why don’t we make that commodity time? Time is the most valuable commodity in your life. You can get more money. You can’t get more time. “Time is money” How do you spend your time? If you spend your time producing products that the market wants, you will have plenty of money.

The quantity of money MUST be equal to the productive capacity of the People who issue it. If too little is issued, the money won’t properly compensate the wealth being created. If too much is issued, the money will be inflated/counterfeited/fraudulent/wealth stolen.

This huge power must be distributed locally, so that it is closely watch by the People. It’s their energy which turns the “paper” into money. Therefore, it should go to projects, and causes which THEY want. Organic money beats globalism.

Once the People take their energy back and harness it through their own money; they will be sovereign again. They will have successfully removed it from the parasites who perp the theft of interest/usury on them. We can have more abundance with ZERO interest loans. We can have a voluntary system which OUTCOMPETES the existing one.

For more info as to how to set this up with your neighbors, go to mtnHours.com. Hour money can be traded from system to system as they are all based on time! Ithaca, NY has had this system for 20 years. We can fix this NOW! Hour money LISTENS! HOUR money is an international solution so that these barter receipts can be traded OUTSIDE the bankers!

Let’s have the politicians, and bankers come ask us for money(energy). The People are the gold.

Let’s make sure the People truly become independent during the 2nd American Revolution. Those who start the local currencies in each community should be regarded as the new founding fathers. They will be taking great risk as the “money changers” don’t like losing power. Ask Jesus, Caesar, Lincoln, and Kennedy to name just a VERY FEW.

Paper is the patsy for the evils perped by the “money changers”. The PRIME fraudulent contract the “money changers” perp is interest/usury. Interest/usury of even 1% based on gold/silver loans will create victims with 100% certainty. More money will always be owed than money to pay the debt. Interest/usury based contracts are fraudulent just like a Ponzi.

Solution? The Bible recommends a universal debt Jubilee for societies which have been victimized by the interest/usury scam. The interest/usury scam has destroyed sovereignty, and bankrupted the People on a local, national, and international level.
It’s time for a UNIVERSAL DEBT JUBILEE so that the People can be free of the “money changer”. This would be a 1 time international reset. Once reset we will have HONEST CONTRACTS which can be met. Contracts will be broken after the Jubilee. There will still be foreclosures, and bankruptcies. The difference will be that it will always be POSSIBLE for the People to pay.
The difference will be that there will be FAR MORE MONEY than debts. The difference will be that there will be abundance. So much abundance OVER TIME that the People won’t need to borrow in the first place.

Why not? There will be no income taxes, property taxes, force, or interest on the creation, OR borrowing of money. We can fund social programs, voluntarily, through the money system.

We can create a voluntary society which will have abundance to the degree that the people have LOVE, and productivity. How much money is too much? How many INCHES is too much? How much LOVE is too much? How much PRODUCTIVITY is too much?

The plan being offered here is moral, ethical, peaceful, and POSSIBLE.

How? Hire the sheriff with your local currency and end income taxes(theft), property taxes(theft), foreclosures(theft through color of law), and victimless crimes(kidnapping). The People can initiate the Jubilee by refusing to comply. Don’t pay your phony debts which the “money changers” simply invented. You have more ENERGY into those loans than the “money changer” after the first payment.

Please digest what is being said here as it is VERY UNIQUE. LEADERS offer HOPE when everyone else is saying the sky is falling. The “leaders” on your TV are pitching austerity, fear, and lack.

This leader is pitching abundance, hope, and independence THIS year. We can make this happen THIS YEAR. How?

How many times will YOU PERSONALLY repost this once you agree with what is being proposed? It’s YOUR ENERGY which will save us. YOU are the gold.

I’m on a mission from God? Do you want to join His mission of hope, and abundance? Do you want to create a world where we can have PEACE, and JOY this year?

Become EVANGELICAL about His mission.

Peace and Wisdom

Important Note: When downloading files, users are advised to use the "SAVE" option as opposed to the "OPEN" option. This is due to the size of many files that are Browser Heavy. The "PDF User Guide" link above is very helpful and informative for all site users.

With that said...

Welcome to American Deception. This website is committed to exposing the deceptively hidden truths that have brought America, and the world as a whole, to the present situation where individual freedom is becoming a thing of the past. Little of what has occurred throughout history has been by mistake; yet there is a wide belief amongst the majority of people that "bad things just happen for no reason at all." Seen as more of a faulty and clumsy political dance, it is easier for many people to believe that most unfortunate happenings are a result of misjudgments or error.

We have changed to a Donation Model so that the site content will be open for all to access. We do not and will not advertise so that this site will always remain independent. Should you find A.D. of historical value, we ask that donations are made to help cover the high cost of its creation and continued development. It did not come to us for free and any donations that are made will be greatly appreciated toward the line of one day breaking even. Donating is easy and can be done via the Donations link.
As our visitors will quickly notice, the informational content has rarely if ever been covered by the Major Media. This is of no surprise since the triangle is as one. It is hardly a complicated reality that the corporations own the government as well as the media. Therefore one should not be surprised that what is called news in this country is more omission than commission, and therefore does not reflect accurately what is happening here in the U.S. or elsewhere in the world.

When the truth has been burned or hidden one immediately suspects connivance among those in charge, or to use a "dirty" word: "conspiracy". We have been conditioned to believe that those who attribute certain actions to conspiracy should not be taken seriously in regard to the particular issue at hand or, more importantly, any issue they may discuss in the future. The media has been highly successful in limiting discussion of important issues simply by rejecting out of hand any mention of the role of conspiracy or planning in the economic, social, and political transformation of the globe as a whole. Its continued success in controlling the news has had a devastating impact on the ability of the average citizen to know what is going on, which would enable us to participate in public policy or as elected officials. Conspiracy is nothing more than a fancy word for "planning" in which the citizens have deliberately been excluded from the early stages thereby leaving them in the dark as to the ultimate goal of the project. This website contains a vast amount of information regarding the who, where, what, and how of recent history, most of which has not been easily available to the public until very recently. The expanding collection available on this website spans from the 1700's to the present. It deals with masterminding behind the scenes and, most important of all, many of the entries were written by the planners themselves. Most of the information was intended for "internal" use only; "for THEIR eyes only", one would say. Fortunately, throughout history, secret documents have made their way into the hands of those outside the "inner circle."

Many of these historical documents have been hidden away due to the fear that they would be destroyed by the planners. The Internet has changed this situation for the better. Important documents, long held secret, are now available on the web and no one can destroy them. Once on the web, they travel far and wide Every time a file is downloaded it becomes a whole new copy. There will be no way to make it vanish. Before long there will be millions of copies of each book and/or document readily available for whoever is interested in "real" history and who cares about the future of generations to come. We can only hope that such easy dispersion of the truth will help citizens understand what has taken place without their knowledge or consent. An understanding which will enable them to take action to reverse the present course of history.

Many visitors to this site are aware that something has been amiss for quite some time. We are happy to provide you with an informational machine that will confirm your suspicions. To those who are bewildered by what is going on, we welcome you to the truth. It will often be shocking for many of you who, up until now, thought our leaders had our best interests in mind. Our elected leaders are not in the driver's seat; they are nothing but puppets, with the "planners" pulling the strings behind the scenes.

As you will notice, this site is rather neutral with regard to the existence or non-existence of an agenda. Our interest is primarily to inform from all angles so that you may gain an objective understanding of what has really been going on. As you can see from the content menu, there are many categories involved. When assembled they allow us to see the whole picture, not just to be diverted into focusing on isolated pieces of this vast historical puzzle, important as they may be." (snip) ...

David Bowie is money in the bank for one tough London borough

2012-01-24T22:14:00.000-08:00

By D’Arcy Doran

"At a time when one in six shops on Britain’s main streets are boarded up, London’s Brixton borough has found a way to fight the hard times — printing its own money. But instead of the Queen, you’ll find David Bowie on Brixton’s bills.

Pubs, fish-and-chip shops and even lawyers and architects are among the more than 200 businesses accepting the Brixton pound, which is worth one British pound.

“With every transaction that occurs locally, more wealth is generated for the local area,” Annalisa Dorigo, the project’s manager explains. “The whole point of the Brixton pound is to increase local transactions.”

When people shop at a national chain, about 90 per cent of the money leaves the community, Dorigo says. The Brixton pound is billed as the money that sticks to Brixton.

Around 40,000 pounds’ worth of Brixton pounds have been circulating, but the total impact is hard to measure because the bills are passed on and on, Dorigo says.

However, judging by the new businesses and lack of empty shops, sprinkling a little Ziggy Stardust on Brixton’s economy hasn’t hurt.

Brixton-born Bowie is on the 10-pound note, while the fiver features former Brixton Basketball Club star turned Chicago Bull Luol Deng. The 20-pound note is graced by World War II spy Violette Szabo, who inspired the 1958 film Carve Her Name with Pride.

It is Britain’s fourth community to introduce a complementary currency, but the first urban area. At Toronto’s St. Lawrence Market, traders have been trying a similar project — Toronto dollars.

But Brixton, which has a reputation as one of London’s toughest areas, is an unlikely place for such an experiment. The punk band the Clash sang of the borough’s violence in “The Guns of Brixton,” which described the police heavy-handedness that set off the Brixton riots in 1981 and 1985.

In August, rioting returned to Brixton. But the day after, the community spirit behind the Brixton pound showed itself.

Mellissa Morgan, the Mississauga-born owner of Ms Cupcake, stood in the street at 7 a.m. giving away her day’s stock as residents assessed the damage.

“You need a cake,” Morgan, who has lived in Brixton for 10 years, recalls telling people. “Today is a day to show there is love in Brixton.” (snip) ...

David Icke’s Thoughts About Money

2012-01-24T17:18:00.000-08:00

In 1996, David Icke published a book titled "I Am Me, I Am Free" wherein he typed a few noteworthy and prophetic quotes about politics, money and finance. Much of what he discussed in 1996 in now happening in real life.

On page 131 it is written:

"The party political system, like the financial system, is going to collapse because its structure is a physical expression of the old global energy field, the old imagination that humanity had of itself. To support this system any longer by voting in rigged elections (also known as democracy) is to give it an energy which will prolong its death and the human prison it underpins. It is wasting energy which could be used to create another reality to replace the old. Let it die, its day is gone. We are growing up now. As the spiritual transformation gathers pace and the sense of human reality changes, the old structures of party politics and interest-bearing debt are being thought out of existence. This will manifest on the physical level as people losing confidence in the system, refusing to play by its rules and the edifice of control will be denied the power (our power) which it needs to survive.”

On page 132 it is written:

“We can get seriously hooked into sterile, diversionary, debates about economics and money. Economists are wheeled on nightly to tell us how important some irrelevant financial development is to our lives and why this or that must happen to compensate. It usually involves bigger taxation, holding down wages, or higher prices. We then worry about money and attract what we fear. It is a vicious circle. We have a “can’t do” economic system which reflects the system as a whole. It’s designed as a prison”

“Economic-speak seeks to confuse us and diminish us because we don’t understand the language and what seems to be such a complex web of figures and data. In fact, it’s dead simple. You lend people money that doesn’t exist and charge them interest (usury) on it. Everything over and above that is a smoke-screen which is built on the foundations of lending people money that doesn’t exist and charging interest (usury) on it. Without the global conjuring trick, it all comes tumbling down.”

On page 133 it is written:

"Why are we desperately trying to shore up the walls of our own prison? Let it go, the quicker the better, and then we can create a system of interest-free (usuryfree) money and exchange that is based on abundance for all, and not, as today, on manufactured scarcity which leads to dependency-control. If we think abundance, there will be abundance.”

“Trying to stop the collapse of this economic insanity would be like rearranging the deckchairs on a sinking Titanic. A waste of time and energy. Much more sensible to climb in a lifeboat.”

NOTE: The economic lifeboat that David Icke and others speak of is the concept of we-the-people creating and spending our own usuryfree community currencies in our respective local communities. The model of a usuryfree time currency has been deemed to be the optimal trading/exchange currency since one hour of time is valued at 60 minutes on every continent and labour (measured with time) is the basis of every product and/or service needed and wanted by consumers. Eventually, given the ease of modern technology we will be able to trade our usuryfree time currencies locally, nationally and internationally – without being charged an exchange fee every time we cross a border into another country.

Think about it and do it NOW in 2012! We can in a very short time create the political will to demand dual accounts from our local credit unions during these transitory times – one account for our usury-base debt money and a second account for our usuryfree time currency.

The Hidden Power Behind The Presidents

2012-01-24T14:36:00.000-08:00

By Tom J. Kennedy

While campaigning for office and early in his term as President, the political pundits compared Barack Obama to the popular, former president Abraham Lincoln. Now as President Obama finishes this last year of his term of office few political pundits would dare to compare him to Abraham Lincoln - except perhaps that both presidents reigned in 'Years of War.'

Lets consider the hidden power behind the Presidents in the 19th Century and in this 21st century.

I draw your attention to the book "War Cycles, Peace Cycles" authored by Richard Kelly Hoskins in 1985. In Chapter 29, The War Between The States: How It Started, on pages 154 -155 it is written: "April 12, 1861 the war was on. Contracts went out; bank profits boomed as the money supply jumped to + 11% versus 1%, the horrible warless year before.

Then in 1862 Bank profits skyrocketed as the money supply jumped another +25% - happy days were here again! For the first time since 1954 money was freely flowing. It allowed the poor farmer to keep his farm; it allowed the hard=pressed businessman to pay the mortgage and keep his business; and it allowed people to pay their taxes which kept cities from defaulting in their bonds. This made the holders of those bonds happy indeed. The bloody wars which cost hundreds of thousands of lives did have a silver lining."

Does this sound familiar when evaluating Barack Obamas current reign as President from January 20th, 2009 until January 20th, 2013. Not much has changed!

Richard Kelly Hoskins goes on to point out that Abraham Lincoln was created by a system which demanded that money be borrowed into existence, whatever the cost, to relieve the suffering of the nation. I suppose we could say that during and prior to Barack Obamas election campaign in 2008, he was created by a similar system.

Richard Kelly Hoskins continues: "Of course, for the sake of history the reasons must be changed to be acceptable for future generations. It sounds better to fight to preserve the union and to free the slaves than to fight to increase the money supply +25%, giving debtors another chance to pay a $2000. Debt while only $1000. Is in circulation. The real reason the thing that breaks strong men, turns women into workworn hags and early widows the wolf of interest (usury) is never mentioned. The usury bankers who run the system selected Lincoln, a willing tool, and told him what to do."

I daresay that the greedy, usury bankers of this 21st Century who run our modern, orthodox, economic system of usury-based, debt money selected Barack Obama and have been telling him what to do.

When Lincoln played by the rules set down by the usury bankers, he relished his stay at the seat of power. However, when Abraham Lincoln broke the rules established by the hidden power of the usury bankers he paid the highest price - his life.

I suppose that as of this date, we can assume that Barack Obama has been following the rules. The key question is if Obama continues to follow the rules will he be granted a second term as President of the United States?

On page 162 of War Cycles, Peace Cycles Richard Kelly Hoskins writes: "During the war between the States Lincoln came in conflict with the banking interests who had put him in office. Lincoln wanted to raise money quickly for military expenses. The agreement between the banks and government was to have government borrow from them. This was all right with Mr. Lincoln, except the banks were not content with the usual interest (usury); they wanted extremely high interest (usury) rates since there was a war. This posed a problem. Lincoln didnt want to pursue an unpopular war or have to explain to voters why he was paying exhorbitant interest (usury) to the banks.

The banks had elected him and felt they owned him, and they simply refused to modify their demands. Lincoln, in a rush to get things done, did one of two things that may have cost him his life. He instructed his government to print and issue greenback tallies to pay for wartime purchases.

These greenbacks did not go through the banking system. They were printed and issued directly by the government. They were interest free (usuryfree) paper tallies. The operators of the usury system were furious. They felt betrayed. European newspapers carried news items about this revolutionary development. Millions of greenbacks were printed by the government and spent into existence, and not a dime in interest (usury) was paid to the banks.

Lincoln was killed. Immediately, the banking system demanded that the offending greenbacks be retired. As the supply of greenbacks dwindled it forced debtors to borrow interest-bearing (usury-bearing) replacement money into existence from the banks."

So far, President Barack Obama has not broken the rules of the usury bankers who own him. Since President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, every President has complied with the rules of the usury bankers.

Should we expect this pattern to change with the election of the next President in November 2012?

NOTE: In 1996, David Icke published a book titled "I Am Me, I Am Free" wherein he typed a few noteworthy and prophetic quotes about politics, money and finance that are worthy of repeating.

- In fact, “ownership” does not exist under the current Federal Reserve System and centralized wealth banking system.

If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it." [emphasis by Wes Penre] -David Rockefeller, Memoirs, 2002

The President Obama is coming into office at a moment when there is upheaval in many parts of the world simultaneously," Kissinger responded. "You have India, Pakistan; you have the jihadist movement. So he can't really say there is one problem, that it's the most important one. But he can give new impetus to American foreign policy partly because the reception of him is so extraordinary around the world. His task will be to develop an overall strategy for America in this period when, really, a new world order can be created. It's a great opportunity, it isn't just a crisis." - Henry Kissinger at the New York Stock Exchange, January 2009

Introducing William Dement

2012-01-24T07:16:00.000-08:00

... and his new book titled: "Delay, Deny, Hope They Die: World Trade Center First Responders-The Battle For Health Care And Compensation"

NOTE: The content of this book is relevant to what has been happening since the tragedy of 9-11 and how our freedoms are continually being undermined as they (the New World Order elites) continue their march towards global domination. Time to wake up our families, friends, neighbours, working colleagues etc.

I wrote an article titled "The Day After" on September 12, 2001 and posted it at this url:
http://www.cyberclass.net/dayafter.htm Indeed, it is time to expose the 'truth' about what happened on September 11, 2001.

WILLIAM DEMENT, a long-distance 9/11 first responder and former N.Y.P.D. police Lieutenant, provides an in-depth look into those fateful days at Ground Zero from September 11, 2001 - - - and beyond. The man he was on September 14th, 2001, versus the man he has become, has evolved into two very different men - in numerous ways. Mainly, Bill will be depicting the related illnesses starting with W.T.C. Cough into the organized obstruction, delay, and finally denial of benefits to him and other disabled first responders.

“9/11 was the beginning of my wake up. I am more truly alive, even without sleep and feeling horrible most of the time, than I have ever been. The world that is unfolding, as I lift the veil, is most troubling - but I see a future of hope.” – Bill Dement & TPH Listener

Book Description from Amazon:

This is the story of a disabled 9/11 first responder, a former police Lieutenant, N.Y.P.D., who describes himself as an Ordinary Joe, who drove 2,000 miles in two days from the retirement home he was building in New Mexico to respond to the World Trade Center disaster.

It vividly depicts his months at Ground Zero; taking body parts off buildings with the FBI, cheering on President Bush as he gave his speech in the Pit on September 14th, working with the bucket brigade at the Pit, assisting residents to re-enter their apartments and take valuables, and praying at St Paul’s Chapel as people left cards, photos, and lighted candles for missing loved ones.

It details the everyday routine of first responders; eating at the Red Cross mess tent and the special bonds that were forged among first responders and volunteers alike, and the compassion of the volunteers that came from all across America. It describes his work at the Fresh Kills landfill, raking for body parts in bio-hazard suits in the putrid air, a rat-infested dump where cars contaminated with asbestos and other carcinogens from the W.T.C. sat piled atop each other-never to be returned to their owners.

It chronicles the City’s attempted return to normalcy with the resumption of baseball at Yankee Stadium in late September and the return to reality with his response to the American Airlines Flight 587 crash in November. It depicts the development of the author's 9/11 related illnesses starting with W.T.C. Cough and the N.Y.P.D.'s Medical Board’s organized obstruction, delay, and finally denial of benefits to him and other disabled first responders, some of them having developed cancer.

He draws on life lessons learned from the Scots-Irish family that adopted him at birth. He grew up in Brooklyn and Staten Island, New York. His adopted father was a W.W.II veteran who was stationed at Pearl Harbor on the battleship U.S.S. California prior to the December 7th attack.

The author recalls how he was the third generation of N.Y.P.D officers. His father and grandfather were also police officers. He recounts the age-old wisdom he received from his grandmother who raised him, her recollection of growing up in the gaslight era in 1897, turn of the century Brooklyn where humility, empathy, and later Depression-era values of frugality, perseverance, and thankfulness for the little things in life were exemplified.

He talks about the abuse he suffered at the hands of his adopted mother and how her mental illness shaped his outlook on life. He vividly describes the wild ride he experienced in the Summer of 2001 upon his transfer to Narcotics; of the execution of 120 narcotics search warrants, battering rams and the realities of the daily War on Drugs that all ended on that faithful day that was September 11th."

Russell Porisky - Found Guilty

2012-01-20T16:23:00.001-08:00

Opinion: Chilliwack proponent of 'natural person' theory convicted of counselling fraud

By David Baines, Vancouver Sun

January 19, 2012

"Chilliwack's Russell Porisky has been convicted of counselling people to evade taxes through his school, Paradigm Education Group.

B.C. Supreme Court judge Elliott Myers also convicted Porisky and his common-law wife of failing to report a total of $1,127,185 of income derived from the school during the five-year period ending December 2008, thereby evading $225,222 in income tax.

The judge further convicted Porisky of failing to remit $66,133 in goods and services taxes that he should have collected on the sale of Paradigm courses and materials.

The trial was held in November and December. The Crown was represented by Bruce Harper, while Porisky and Gould represented themselves.

Judge Myers handed down his 36-page decision on Wednesday morning. For the Minister of National Revenue, it represents a major victory.

For years, Porisky has been promoting his "natural person" theory, which holds that a per-son can arrange his or her business affairs to receive income as a "natural person" rather than as a taxpayer, thereby avoiding income taxes.

The only problem is, the courts have consistently rejected this argument. More than a dozen people, including some of Porisky's former students, have been convicted of tax evasion, and some have been sentenced to jail terms.

By getting Porisky convicted of counselling people to evade tax through the natural person theory, the federal government has effectively cut off the head of the snake.

In his decision, Judge Myers noted that Porisky worked in the construction industry, then in the early 1990s began to study the taxation system.

By 2001, he had dedicated him-self to studying and propagating his theories. He founded the Paradigm Education Group to "create a structure that everyone could work together in to save the country from a foreign parasite" - the international bankers who were supposedly responsible for the income tax system.

To promote his natural per-son theory, he wrote books and created instructional DVDs, and Paradigm sold them through its website, www.naturalperson. com.

He also conducted seminars, for which he charged a fee, and he qualified "educators" to teach Paradigm materials and assist people who wanted to set them-selves up as natural persons.

Gould, who has lived with Porisky since 1998, assisted in administrative matters and attended his seminars. Money generated by Paradigm was deposited into four bank accounts, two of which were in their joint names.

Paradigm proved to be a very popular and lucrative business. A Canada Revenue Agency investigator testified that a total of $1,843,298 was deposited into Porisky's and Gould's bank accounts during the relevant period. After deducting expenses, he estimated net business income to be $1,127,185, which he allocated evenly between the two accused.

While the profitability of the venture was clear, its underlying logic was not:

"Mr. Porisky's theory not only does not bear any legal logic but it also fails to accord with common sense. It is a failed attempt at word magic and has no validity," Judge Myers wrote in his decision.

He said the "absurdity" of Porisky's distinction between a natural person and a non-natural person was illustrated during the trial when he was asked whether he wanted to give any evidence.

"If I make the decision and I go in that box, which person, in the eyes of the law, am I?" he asked the judge.

"Am I Russell Anthony Porisky in my inherent personality as a natural person, or am I a sovereign-granted personality?"

"You're Mr. Porisky," the judge replied.

"That's fairly misleading because that's not clear enough for me," Porisky responded.

At that point, the judge tried to reduce the question to its simplest form:

"Let's assume you get into the stand and the Crown asks you, 'What did you have for break-fast today?' Would it make a difference as to what capacity you were in?"

"For me, it would, your honour, yes."

The judge also noted that, when Porisky was asked to confirm the identity of a Paradigm educator in the public gallery, he said it depended in what capacity the Crown was asking about.

The judge found that Porisky was well aware of previous court decisions rejecting the natural person theory, and was therefore "wilfully blind" in utilizing and promoting his views to others.

"It is clear to me that Mr. Porisky intended that Paradigm students follow his teachings by arranging their affairs as natural persons and avoid paying income tax."

The judge noted that Paradigm's books and DVDs contained a disclaimer that the information in them "should in no way be construed as either legal or financial advice," and that readers should consult a competent expert to determine its veracity before utilizing it.

But he said these caveats were "lost in a sea of material that [Paradigm] presented with 100-per-cent certainty," and it was clear he was "encouraging the fraud of income tax avoidance."

Judge Myers will consider an appropriate sentence at a later date. Based on his income tax evasion conviction alone, it is highly likely that Porisky, at least, will be handed a jail sentence. The counselling conviction can only lengthen that term." (snip) ..

John F. Kennedy vs The Federal Reserve

2012-01-20T10:26:00.000-08:00

On June 4, 1963, a virtually unknown Presidential decree, Executive Order 11110, was signed with the authority to basically strip the Bank of its power to loan money to the United States Federal Government at interest. With the stroke of a pen, President Kennedy declared that the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank would soon be out of business. The Christian Law Fellowship has exhaustively researched this matter through the Federal Register and Library of Congress. We can now safely conclude that this Executive Order has never been repealed, amended, or superceded by any subsequent Executive Order. In simple terms, it is still valid.

When President John Fitzgerald Kennedy - the author of Profiles in Courage -signed this Order, it returned to the federal government, specifically the Treasury Department, the Constitutional power to create and issue currency -money - without going through the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank. President Kennedy's Executive Order 11110 [the full text is displayed further below] gave the Treasury Department the explicit authority: "to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury." This means that for every ounce of silver in the U.S. Treasury's vault, the government could introduce new money into circulation based on the silver bullion physically held there. As a result, more than $4 billion in United States Notes were brought into circulation in $2 and $5 denominations. $10 and $20 United States Notes were never circulated but were being printed by the Treasury Department when Kennedy was assassinated. It appears obvious that President Kennedy knew the Federal Reserve Notes being used as the purported legal currency were contrary to the Constitution of the United States of America.

"United States Notes" were issued as an interest-free and debt-free currency backed by silver reserves in the U.S. Treasury. We compared a "Federal Reserve Note" issued from the private central bank of the United States (the Federal Reserve Bank a/k/a Federal Reserve System), with a "United States Note" from the U.S. Treasury issued by President Kennedy's Executive Order. They almost look alike, except one says "Federal Reserve Note" on the top while the other says "United States Note". Also, the Federal Reserve Note has a green seal and serial number while the United States Note has a red seal and serial number.

President Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963 and the United States Notes he had issued were immediately taken out of circulation. Federal Reserve Notes continued to serve as the legal currency of the nation. According to the United States Secret Service, 99% of all U.S. paper "currency" circulating in 1999 are Federal Reserve Notes.

Kennedy knew that if the silver-backed United States Notes were widely circulated, they would have eliminated the demand for Federal Reserve Notes. This is a very simple matter of economics. The USN was backed by silver and the FRN was not backed by anything of intrinsic value. Executive Order 11110 should have prevented the national debt from reaching its current level (virtually all of the nearly $9 trillion in federal debt has been created since 1963) if LBJ or any subsequent President were to enforce it. It would have almost immediately given the U.S. Government the ability to repay its debt without going to the private Federal Reserve Banks and being charged interest to create new "money". Executive Order 11110 gave the U.S.A. the ability to, once again, create its own money backed by silver and realm value worth something.

Again, according to our own research, just five months after Kennedy was assassinated, no more of the Series 1958 "Silver Certificates" were issued either, and they were subsequently removed from circulation. Perhaps the assassination of JFK was a warning to all future presidents not to interfere with the private Federal Reserve's control over the creation of money. It seems very apparent that President Kennedy challenged the "powers that exist behind U.S. and world finance". With true patriotic courage, JFK boldly faced the two most successful vehicles that have ever been used to drive up debt:

1) war (Viet Nam); and,

2) the creation of money by a privately owned central bank. His efforts to have all U.S. troops out of Vietnam by 1965 combined with Executive Order 11110 would have destroyed the profits and control of the private Federal Reserve Bank. (snip) ...

Why are you an interest (usury) abolitionist?

2012-01-19T22:30:00.000-08:00

AKA: Interest/usury/fraud=slavery

By K Roc "the truth hammer" - formerly Wayne K. Walton

Who, what, when, where, how, and why? Who: I'm a 47 year old guy named Wayne Walton. Let me quickly tell you about me. But, please understand this story is about YOU. Be patient. I will reveal information to you which only 1 in 100,000 understand. The information which is the central cause of our enslavement. This information is PURPOSELY with-held by YOUR favorite "truth teller".

I grew up in a middle-class, 3 generation Navy family in Pennsylvania. I unfortunately, voted Republican my whole life including McCain/Palin. I have a degree in History of University of South Florida with a focus on Civil War, and WWII. I have never taken a dime of public money except for a very brief time in the Marines.

I have been a 25 year pool contractor who likes to get dirty, and play team, running sports. Unfortunately, I was also very wicked. I wanted to kill for my country for really no reason. 10 years of my life were spent being hedonistic, with 2 divorces, abortions, and 2 DUI's to match. I engaged in conduct which would make Charlie Sheen blush. I went through foreclosure, bankruptcy and monsterous lack of responsibility.

Finally, I fought back and regained financial stability. After the 2008 bailouts, I did a deep investigation as to the REAL power structure in the world. Once enlightened, AND reborn, I moved into a trailer, and built a survival property. Now, I am a monetary reform activist. I am a usury abolitionist.

"There is an education we receive, and another we give ourselves."

My hope is that you will allow me to be your "truth teller" so that I might reveal information about the root cause of the destruction of the planet, and human race. What: The problem, and the solution. The world has been at perpetual war, hunger, and hate for a very long time. The slaves have been taught to blame the other slaves for their enslavement, by design by the slave owners.

"Divide and conquer" is the strategy employed by Pharoah to build pyramids, Great Britain to rule India, and the central bankers to build bank buildings and Presidential libraries. We live under the most sophisticated, innovated tyranny in human history.

We are "free range" slaves. Have you ever noticed that war never ends for lack of funding? Have you noticed that there is virtually no "peace songs" on the radio despite widespread wish for peace in a supposidly "Christian" nation. Why is it that the "Christians" lust for war, hate, and killing the MOST?

Whoever controls the monetary system of any society is the real government. Forget the fancy building, and "illusions" of power as those are all just banker's propaganda. Elections are there to give us the illusion of freedom. The "money changers" are the real power behind the throne. It matters not if the throne is occupied by a king, queen, democracy, constitutional republic, socialist, fascist, or even anarchy.

We live in a two party, Zionist, fascist, international bank dictatorship called the New World Order. Don't believe me? It's written right on the back of a buck ever since the US was bankrupted on a gold, silver money system in 1933. When any entity is in bankruptcy, the creditor makes all the big decisions.

The TV's job is to get you to pick a team in a no win game. The TV's job is to sell you bankers' phony candidates, to solve bankers' engineered problems, with bankers' phony solutions. Why are bankers so powerful? Only bankers can INVENT their product. An "evil oil" company must produce a product. A central banker can purchase the most powerful oil company on Wall Street with the click of a mouse. The banker does this not with his OWN commercial energy. He parasitically harnesses the energy of the People through the monetary system. With this tyrannic power bankers own the world.

The "money changers" have acquired this power with mathematic certainty by offering loans with very low rates. No matter what the rate of interest, the loans are not possible to pay by all borrowers. Even with 1% charged on gold/silver the "money changers" can confiscate the world.

The ROOT cause of the world's economics problems is the mathematic fraud of usury, or interest. Inerest/usury charged on a loan has a 100% chance of creating a victim just like a Ponzi. Usury, interest just has much better PR. Usury USED to be punishable by death just like all theft.

All religions USED TO forbid USURY to be perped on their OWN people. It is NOT only my opinion, it is mathematic fact which can be proven with 3rd grade math. This simple lie is the "source code bug" in our economic system. It is the original sin which institutionally finances all the others. Our entire society is based on this fraud.

What exactly is the fraud? One cannot pay what does not exist. When money is loaned, only the PRINCIPLE is in circulation, or created. The INTEREST money is NOT created, and therefore impossible to pay. Most borrowers WILL be able to pay. However, at least one borrower will NOT be able to pay no matter how hard they work.

Again, one cannot pay what does not exist. The interest rate, amount borrowed, currency backing, or good intentions of the lender, and borrower do NOT matter. In fact, both the borrower, and the lender willingly engage in this contract, and think they have done a good thing. Unfortunately, the borrower is promising to do the impossible for ALL borrowers.

Usury/interest is a game of musical chairs, and someone will be left without a chair. People without chairs are called homeless, bankrupt, hungry. Governments without chairs are called bankrupt, and no longer sovereign. If NO governments, or banks existed on the planet, usury would still destroy. If all the money in the world was distributed equally among the People of the planet, usury would still destroy. The "money changers" who loan money with interest would slowly aquire all the wealth over time with mathematic certainty.

In order for mankind to have abundance, she must REJECT usury. Fortunately, another lending compensation system is available which creates sufficient money to pay the outstanding debt. With a POINTS ONLY lending system, an equal amount of money is created to the amount of debt owed.

Let me repeat. An equal amount of money is created to the amount of debt owed. Let me repeat again. An equal amount of money is created to the amount of debt owed. Say it to yourself "An equal amount of money is created to the amount of debt owed". You have just learned an economic lesson that baffles Ivy League PHD's.

Having sufficient money to pay the outstanding debt is a pretty simple concept. What is the difference between points, and interest? Both are just a percentage charged on money loaned. Simply put, one is sustainable, and one is not. A POINTS ONLY system creates sufficient money to pay the outstanding debt owed. This makes the lending compensation system sustainable, and not parasitic. The points necessary for bank profitability will be determined by the market.

We can create a system which provides abundance. We are not against banking, lending, money, competition, free markets, or responsible borrowing. Usury based lending is completely irrisponsible as it always creates a victim. We must replace both MONEY CREATION, and MONEY LENDING when they are borrowed with interest.

Currently, our money is created as a debt with usury. Our money says Federal Reserve NOTE. A note is a promissory NOTE. This is a promise to pay. Unfortunately, one cannot promise to pay what does not exist. The INTEREST on the loan does not exist. Once we use a sustainable loan system where equal money and debt is created we will have abundance.

We will have more money, more banking, more lending, and more prosperity. However, foreclosures will still occur. People will still be irresponsible. However, the institutionalized theft through color of law will not occur. All the borrowers will have an honest chance to pay their debts. How can we make this happen without relying on a corrupt vote, or phony bankers' savior?

We will NOT find a solution, or leader on the TV as they PROTECT THE LIE of usury. Whether the phony "truth tellers" on TV are paid shills, or simply ignorant is no matter. In either case, they are not fit to lead. They help the slavemasters enslave the People in perpetual war, want, and hate.

So WHAT can be done? We have a globalist problem, we need an organic solution. Local currency issued, and loaned USURY FREE is essential. Ithaca, NY has had a local currency issued, and loaned interest free for 20 years. If each county across the country were to do this ASAP we can very quickly change the world.

2012 will be known as the greatest year in human history as the ROOT PROBLEM of our economic system will be understood. Mothers who don't want their children to be drafted into bankers engineered WWIII will take action. Fathers, will finally turn off the game, and teach their sons about the fraud of usury. Mothers will turn off the Kardashians, and Idol and do the same. REPEAT women, and men will learn to teach others about the FRAUD of usury. REPEAT women, and men will learn to teach others the FRAUD of usury.

Why will the People take some time to focus on boring economics? Maybe, they finally become mad that every "truth teller" that they listen to is a "keeper of the lie of usury". The People will finally get wise to the grand conspiracy which has kept them and their children in a sea of deception. Adults will GROW UP because, they love their families, and children. They will finally be ADULTS who focus on the specific SOURCE PROBLEM, and not the symptoms.

Free, grown men, and women will stop demanding saviors like helpless children. Free, grown men, and women will NOT ask permission to do the right thing. Free, grown men, and women will stop complaining, whining, and telling OTHERS what to do. Free, grown men, and women will become responsible adults who SOLVE PROBLEMS.

The People will become doers, instead of talkers. How will we make this information become a movement?

By making a 2012 New Year's Resolution! "I will learn about usury, and interest and understand how it is a fraud regardless of rate, currency backing, good intentions of the borrower, and lender. I will then teach a minimum of 10 of my friends, family, or neighbors. I will turn off the TV, and stop listening to the "protectors of the lie".

I will take action so that my family and society does NOT accept the theft, accept which occurs because of the lie. I will personally email, and repeatedly post information on my social networks to expose the big lie. I will go to theRedPillRadio.com and subscribe to learn how Summit County, CO will soon have a new local currency and follow the progress"

For extra credit to really make yourself, and your mother proud. Please do this. Get with your neighbors and start your own local currency. Friend Wayne Walton, and go to mtnHours.com to learn how to start a local currency issued without INTEREST.

Together, we will change our world by simply changing the color of our money. We will finally take our power back, and keep it. We will do this peacefully, morally, and courageously. Through this entire process of enlightenment we will become "super humans"

Peace and Wisdom,

Life Without Usury

2012-01-19T22:27:00.000-08:00

By Peter Jon Simpson

Can there be such an economy rooted in Christian Law wherein usury and interest is a capital crime? The Dark Ages are a most misunderstood period. Voltaire said that history is the tricks that the living play on the dead. Voltaire was right. The Establishment teaches us that the Middle Ages came just after the Dark Ages. Lots of dirt, tyranny, poverty and borderline hopeless living. Nothing could be further from the truth.

The greatest displays of a nation’s wealth, its cathedrals, were built during the Middle Ages. The skilled labour used to construct the cathedrals was mostly volunteer labour. Labour was donated to the church to perfect skills, learn or upgrade new skills. How could such labour be donated? At the dawn of the age, the usurers were driven from the land. Anyone on either side of a usury contract was given thirty days to cease and desist. Failure to comply meant expulsion from the land and the denial of the right to a Christian burial. Usury dried up and blew away.

In the middle of the 19th Century, Oxford Professor of Political History, Thorold Rogers wrote of that era: “At that time a labourer could provide all the necessities for his family for a year by working fourteen weeks.” The other thirty-eight weeks were his to do as he pleased. Would you like to earn all of the money required to feed, shelter, clothe and recreate your family for a year by working fourteen weeks? What would you do with thirty-eight weeks of vacation per year?

Many parts of Europe were so prosperous during the Middle Ages that hundreds of communities averaged 160 to 180 holidays a year. None were bank holidays. The people worked for themselves, learned new skills, studied, went hunting or fishing, and many volunteered their skills and trades for building those magnificent cathedrals. Lord Liverhume, writing the century before Thorold Rogers said : “The men of the 15th Century were very well paid.”

Today we can still visit the remaining cathedrals if we can afford to leave our contemporary responsibilities. Cabot in his book ‘The History of the Reformation’ stated that our forbearers possessed the wealth and leisure for one hundred thousand pilgrims at a time to visit Canterbury and other cathedrals. This was in a land with one tenth today’s population. Cabot in his book ‘Rural Rides’ stated that concerning Winchester Cathedral: “That building was made when there were no poor rates, when every labouring man in England was clothed in good will and cloth and when all had plenty of meat and bread and beer.”

The people of that age re-instated God’s Law, particularly regarding economics. They neither gave usury, nor took it. There was no chain letter money and banking system. Consequently, the lands were full of spiritual and material wealth. There was a church every four square miles throughout England and thirty-five magnificent cathedrals. Externally imposed laws were at a minimum. The church, the king, the municipalities and the guilds had limited power. The Court system evolved from the church and was separate from the government.

The reason the room stood when the judge entered the court was not out of respect for the judge, it was because the judge carried the Bible onto the Bench with him. And that bible was the final arbiter of the dispute before the court. The court system, an outgrowth of the church was mostly autonomous. The church interpreted the laws. Laymen wrote pamphlets concerning economic justice. Usury was the aids of its day – economically speaking.

Today these facts are hidden from us by an evolutionary, humanistic, government-save-me establishment. The Middle Ages are often referred to as the Dark Ages. And our lives today. Instead of working three days a week and having four to ourselves, we have two pay cheque familes today, where a generation ago we only needed one pay cheque to afford our common life style. Our wives must now work so we can afford what our parents had a generation ago. We flee into alcohol, professional sports, movies and T.V. We seek to escape the pressure of our due bills. 160 to 180 holidays a year to us is a foreign a circumstance as the planet Saturn and her multi-coloured rings.

I am now convinced that if we as a people can abolish usury from our society as our forbearers did in Europe seven hundred years ago, we will leave our children and grandchildren a circumstance where they will be able to make a society that is prosperous and just, peaceful and plentiful. If we cannot as a people banish usury from our nation, we will condemn our children and grandchildren to a world of poverty and tyranny. It will be one hell of a fight where as Salomon P. Chase said: “The people will be arrayed on one side, and the banks on the other, in a contest such as we have never before seen in this country.

Our children’s future depends on our taking up this challenge and winning. I believe that fight must originate as the American Revolution 210 years ago, in our churches. We may have to educate and train our churchmen at first. This fight must be staged and it must be won. As General George Patton said: “We will go forward and meet the enemy and be victorious or let no man come back alive.” If I didn’t think this fight could be won, I wouldn’t have written my book and created this 1988 update.

Life Without Usury is transcribed from the 1988 audio cassette ‘Avoid Bank Holidays’ by Peter Jon Simpson.

The Biggest Lie Never Exposed

2012-01-18T21:22:00.000-08:00

- The Design Flaw of Usury in Perspective
By Tom J. Kennedy

Economists are debating whether this current recession is deepening to become the great Depression of the 21st Century. I suppose economists do not know that just as the Depression of the 1930s was planned by the usury bankers, so is this 12stCentury Depression being planned by the same usury bankers.

Popular polls indicate a steady sagging of public confidence in our orthodox, economic system of usury-based, debt money. Perhaps some perspective of the design flaw of usury is in order.

The fact of the matter is that we-the-people in Canada, the United States, and in the entire world, have been victims of lies, deceit and deception in regards to how, when, where and why the debt-money portion of any loan or mortgage is created by the creditor (based on the signature of the debtor on a promissory note) while the usury of interest portion of any loan or mortgage is never created and put into circulation by the creditor. Neither is the usury or interest on any credit card ever created and put into circulation by the issuer of the credit card the creditor.

During the 20th Century, much wealth and prosperity was stolen by creditors from debtors than ever before in recorded history. Unfortunately, as John The Engineer Turmel says this is the biggest lie never exposed. It is time now to expose the big lie of usury, and to promote/advocate the usuryfree, community currency movement as the catalyst that will usher in the new age of usuryfree living for everyone on planet earth.

First, let us focus on the renowned research by John The Engineer Turmel who has been re-educating those who are ready and willing to be re-educated since the late 1970s when he learned that truth about the evil and immoral function of usury, and exposed it as the killer machine that it really is. An abundance of his work is posted at this website: http://www.cyberclass.net/turmel

While it is empowering to read all of Johns posts, these two article are recommended as priority prerequisites:

http://www.cyberclass.net/turmel/biglie.htm

http://www.cyberclass.net/turmel/bankmath.htm

Since the early 1980s, we have been experiencing the birthing of the usuryfree, community currency movement as the optimal strategy to implement that will free us from the ugly iron grip of usury which has been shackling debtors for generation after generation.

Michael Linton with financial support from John The Engineer Turmel launched the usuryfree LETS (Local Employment Trading System) software program in the deep recession of the early 1980s when interest or usury rates spiked a 21% in Canada. Since that time the usuryfree, community currency movement has been evolving and expanding at a steady rate. As this current recession deepens to become the grand-daddy Depression of recorded history, the usuryfree community currency movement is fast gaining popularity as the economic lifeboat of choice.

While the biggest lie never exposed is the incredible, economic story of the 20th Century, the greatest opportunity not yet understood has the potential to become an even greater economic story of this 21st Century. Indeed, it is working models from the usuryfree, community currency movement that offer the greatest opportunity not yet understood to individuals, families, small-to-medium-sized businesses and governments (local, provincial/state, and federal) as well as countries.

Peace, abundance and prosperity for everyone on planet earth will be possible when the design flaw of usury is abolished forever from our orthodox, economic system of debt-money. This will be possible because eventually usury will be replaced with a simple service charge (fee) which can be created and put into circulation simultaneously when any loan or mortgage is issued by any creditor.

In light of this new experience of financial freedom which leads to the reality of usuryfree living, it is now exciting to become a usuryfree creative and actively participate within the usuryfree, community currency movement.

Can we expect the keepers of usury to resist the shifting of their consciousness to accepting the experience of usuryfree living^ Can we expect the abolitionists those who seek to abolish usury forever to fuel the advances in usuryfree living to such a degree that there will be no market for any creditors who insist on exacting usury or interest on any loan mortgage or credit card^

The answers to these questions are still unknown, but the expectation is that debtors (and there are many more debtors than creditors) will be highly motivated by their new knowledge that exposes the design flaw of usury for the big lie that it is. The creditors may very well realize the need to take action to shift the economic paradigm if they wish to remain as significant players in future games of co-operative finance where there will be mutual benefit for all who choose to participate as creditors and debtors.

As one who has been proclaiming the benefits of usuryfree living for 30+ years, Ill admit it is becoming easier to explain to audiences why their stock portfolios are diminishing while the biggest lie never exposed is finally exposing that the creditor has no credibility as the emperor has no clothes.

As we progress into this 21st Century, we can expect the number of committed, usuryfree creatives to expand exponentially. With newly acquired knowledge they will assume their moral obligations to present the truth about modern money creation as it has been hijacked by the usury bankers. Then they will explain what economic freedom will become when the design flaw of usury is taken out of the equation.

I leave debtors with this small but powerful quote that proves usury contracts are impossible to be fulfilled. The quote is taken from the Introduction of the book War Cycles, Peace Cycles authored by Richard Kelly Hoskins.

"If there is only $10.00 in existence, and you lend it to someone under the condition that he repay $11.00, and if he agrees to this, he has agreed to the impossible."

From this simple quote it is easy to understand that if the debtor borrows $10.00 and is forced to pay back $11.00 (at a usury rate of 10%), then sooner or later the creditor (the usurer) will steal the debtors property.

Debtors are encouraged to join a usuryfree community currency group in your local area OR otherwise take a leadership role and launch a usuryfree community currency to encourage consumers to shop locally. DO IT NOW!

The Ron Paul Challenge -

2012-01-18T10:23:00.000-08:00

- 10 reasons why the Alternative Media is failing this test

By Anthony Migchels

We can consider ourselves lucky Ron Paul is not likely to win the elections. His economics are a disaster and the Alternative Media’s credibility would suffer a horrible blow from bringing him to power. Just think of the field day the Main Stream Media would have explaining they warned us of Paul when millions take to the street to resist his destruction of the economy with his 1 trillion austerity drive.

How could our best and brightest be suckered in to supporting a Freemason wanting a Gold Standard with an austerity program the IMF would tout as an example?

In many respects it’s heartwarming, the momentum that he creates. It does show how deeply felt the desire for ‘change’ really is. But on the other hand it’s sobering to realize how easy it still is to fool people with a promise of change. Even if it’s just four short years ago that millions were led to continuing disaster with that other change agent. How is it possible that after all these years of exposing Illuminati change agents it is still so hard for people to understand that ‘change’ can be a real threat and that it is not ‘change’ in general we want, but a very specific kind of change?

How is it possible that after all those years of digging in real history, exposing the Money Power and the Illuminati’s control of the money supply that we still can be sold a candidate like Paul?

How is it possible that when I write Ken Adachi about Ron Paul’s Austrian Economics and how he will maintain the Illuminati’s control of the money supply with a new Gold Standard, I get this reply:
“You are mixing apples and oranges. I have no quarrel with Paul if he favors a gold backed US currency. That’s what we used to have until Roosevelt ended the fixing of gold at $35 per ounce and took us off the gold standard……

…….. We have a congress filled with NWO traitors who are working day and night to bring about the destruction of this once great land. The only one addressing the real issues of the shredding of the US constitution and the insane fiscal and war policies that are destroying America is Ron Paul.“

Please understand I greatly respect Ken Adachi. I’ve been following his work for almost ten years. He was already exposing Chemtrailing when I was still explaining to people how wonderful our free market democracy really is.

But how can a man of his brilliance NOT understand that the NWO rules through their control of our money supply while using this control to destroy us with interest and the boom/bust cycle?

The fact is that of all the major outlets only Jeff Rense consistently provided links to Ron Paul’s real opposition within the Alternative Media. Most notably through the writings of Henry Makow and Dick Eastman.
And this shows that the Alternative Media is prone to the same myopia the MSM suffers from when it comes to ‘their own’.

All this is incredibly annoying. Ron Paul singlehandedly disabled the entire blogosphere as a source of opposition. He’s hijacked the voice of reason and we need to clean up our act.

So here’s a top ten of what went wrong.

1. Not understanding economics, not knowing of Interest Free Economics
How can we support a candidate offering a Gold Standard? What’s wrong with us? What does it matter whether the Government pays 700 billion in debt service for paper based credit or for gold based credit?
While it can print interest free money itself?

The choice is not to pay interest for Gold or for Paper.

The choice is to pay interest or NOT pay interest.

How can all the pundits miss that we had a Gold Standard up to the thirties (and via Bretton Woods actually up to 1971)? How can we forget the Rothschilds got rich from lending Gold to Sovereigns in the 18th, 19th AND 20th century?

How can all the commentators denounce the deflationary policies of the IMF and Brussels in Europe and next hail a man calling for a 1 Trillion austerity drive as the new Messiah?

We are falling for just another dialectic: Mainstream Economics vs Austrian Economics, or Inflation vs. Deflation.
It’s worrying that these dialectics still fool us so easily. Whereas they can be easily recognized: they always offer a choice between a rock and a hard place. Evil and lesser evil. When facing such a choice we should realize we’re being played.

I was lucky, I read Lietaer first and only then Rothbard. But it’s not too late: read up on Ellen Brown, Margrit Kennedy, Eisenstein, Greco, Dick Eastman, C.H. Douglas. These people are for real, because they show the way to end interest slavery. And the Money Power cannot be defeated without defeating Usury.

How are we going to end Usurious Usurpation with a Gold Standard?" (snip) ...

A Run On The Global Banking System—How Close Are We?

2012-01-18T09:56:00.000-08:00

Nine weeks after its bankruptcy, the general public still hasn’t quite realized the implications of the MF Global scandal.

My own sense is, this is the first tremor of the earthquake that’s coming to the global financial system. And how the central banks and financial regulators treated the “Systemically Important Financial Institutions” that had exposure to MF Global—to the detriment of the ordinary, blameless customer who got royally ripped off in its bankruptcy—is both the template of how the next financial crisis will be handled, and an accelerator that will make the next crisis happen that much sooner.

So first off, what happened with MF Global?

Simple: It went bankrupt—because it made bad bets on European sovereign debt, by way of leveraging positions 100-to-1. Yeah, I know: Stupid. Anyway, they went bankrupt—which in and of itself is no big deal. It’s not as if it’s the first time in history that a brokerage firm has gone bust. But to me, the big deal in this case was the way the bankruptcy was handled.

Now there are several extremely serious aspects to the MF Global case: Specifically, how their customers were shut out of their brokerage accounts for over a week following the bankruptcy, which made it impossible for those customers to sell out of their positions, and thus caused them to lose serious money; and of course how MF Global was more adept than Mandrake the Magician at making money disappear—about $1 billion, in fact, which still hasn’t turned up. These are quite serious issues which merit prolonged discussion, investigation, prosecution, and ultimately jailtime.

But for now, I want to discuss one narrow aspect of the MF Global bankruptcy: How authorities (mis)handled the bankruptcy—either willfully or out of incompetence—which allowed customer’s money to be stolen so as to make JPMorgan whole.

From this one issue, it seems clear to me that we can infer what will happen when the next financial crisis hits in the nearterm future.

Brokerage firms hold clients’ money in what are known as segregated accounts. This is the money that brokerage firms hold for when a customer makes a trade. If a brokerage firm goes bankrupt, these monies are never touched—because they never belonged to the firm, and thus are not part of its assets.

Think of segregated accounts as if they were the content in a safety deposit box: The bank owns the vault—but it doesn’t own the content of the safety deposit boxes inside the vault. If the bank goes broke, the customers who stored their jewelry and pornographic diaries in the safe deposit boxes don’t lose a thing. The bank is just a steward of those assets—just as a brokerage firm is the steward of those customers’ segregated accounts.

But when MF Global went bankrupt, these segregated accounts—that is, the content of those safe deposit boxes—were taken away from their rightful owners—that is, MF Global’s customers—and then used to pay off other creditors: That is, JPMorgan.

(The mechanics of how this was done are interesting, but insanely complicated, and ultimately not relevant to this discussion. To grossly simplify, MF Global pledged customer assets to JPMorgan, in a process known as rehypothecation—customer assets which MF Global did not have a right to. Needless to say, JPMorgan covered its ass legally. Ethically? Morally? Black as night.)

This was seriously wrong—and this is the source of the scandal: Rather than being treated as a bankruptcy of a commodities brokerage firm under subchapter IV of the Chapter 7 bankruptcy law, MF Global was treated as an equities firm (subchapter III) for the purposes of its bankruptcy.

Why does this difference of a single subchapter matter? Because in a brokerage firm bankruptcy, the customers get their money first—because after all, it’s theirs—while in an equities firm bankruptcy, the customers are at the end of the line.

In the case of MF Global, what should have happened was for all the customers to get their money first. Then everyone else—including JPMorgan—would have picked over the remaining scraps. And the monies MF Global had already pledged to JPMorgan? They call it clawback for a reason.

The Chicago Mercantile Exchange, which handled the bankruptcy, should have done this—but instead, the Merc was more concerned with making JPMorgan whole than with protecting the money that rightfully belonged to MF Global’s 40,000 customers.

Thus these 40,000 MF Global customers had their money stolen—there’s no polite way to characterize what happened. And this theft was not carried out by MF Global—it was carried out by the authorities who were charged with handling the firm’s bankruptcy.

These 40,000 customers were not Big Money types—they were farmers who had accounts to hedge their crops, individuals owning gold (like Gerald Celente—here’s his account of what happened to him)—

—in short, ordinary investors. Ordinary people—and they got screwed by the regulators, for the sake of protecting JPMorgan and other big fry who had exposure to MF Global.

That, in a nutshell, is what happened.

Now, what does this mean?

It means that nobody’s money is safe. It means that regulators care more about protecting the so-called “Systemically Important Financial Institutions” than about protecting Ordinary Joe investors. It means that, when crunchtime comes, central banks and government regulators will allow SIFI’s to get better, and let the Ordinary Joes get fucked.

So far, so evil—but here comes the really troubling part: It is an open secret that there are more paper-assets than there are actual assets. The markets are essentially playing musical chairs—and praying that the music never stops. Because if it ever does—that is, if there is ever a panic, where everyone decides that they want their actual asset instead of just a slip of paper—the system would crash.

And unlike with fiat currency, where a central bank can print all the liquidity it wants, you can’t print up gold bullion. You can’t print up a silo of grain. You can’t print up a tankerful of oil.

Now, question: When is there ever a panic? When is there ever a run on a financial system?

Answer: When enough participants no longer trust the system. It is the classic definition of a tipping point. It’s not that all of the participants lose faith in the system or institution. It’s not even when most of the participants lose faith: Rather, it’s when a mere some of the participants decide they no longer trust the system that a run is triggered.

And though this is completely subjective on my part—backed by no statistics except scattered anecdotal evidence—but it seems to me that MF Global has shoved us a lot closer to this theoretical run on the system.

As I write this, a lot of investors whom I know personally—who are sophisticated, wealthy, and not at all the paranoid type—are quietly pulling their money out of all brokerage firms, all banks, all equity firms. They are quietly trading out of their paper assets and going into the actual, physical asset.

Note that they’re not trading into the asset—they’re simply exchanging their paper-asset for the real thing.

Why? MF Global.

“The MF Global scandal has made it clear that the integrity of the system has disappeared,” said a good friend of mine, Tuur Demeester, who runs Macrotrends, a Dutch-language newsletter out of Brugge. “The banks are insolvent, the governments are insolvent, and all that’s left is for the people to realize what’s going on—and that will start a panic.”

He hit it on the head: Some of the more sophisticated people—like Tuur, like some of my acquaintances, (like myself, frankly)—have realized that the MF Global scandal means that there is no safety for any paper investment: The integrity of the systems has been completely shattered. If in the face of one medium-sized brokerage firm going under, the regulators will openly allow ordinary people to be ripped off for the sake of protecting the so-called “Systemically Important Financial Institutions”—in this case JPMorgan—what will happen if there is a system-wide run? What if two or three MF Globals happen simultaneously?

Will they protect the citizens’ money? Or will they protect the “Systemically Important Financial Institutions”?

I think we know the answer.

And I think we all know the answer to the question of whether there will be crisis flashpoint in the near-term future: After all, as Demeester pointed out, all the banks and all the governments are broke.

Thus it’s only a matter of time before they come for your money.

At SPG, we’ve been putting together Scenarios for other black swan events which are becoming increasingly likely: What to do if the eurozone breaks up, what to do if you have to leave America, what to do if there is an Israeli-Iranian war, what to do if there is forced dollar devaluation, and so on.

Now, because of this open kleptocracy and cronyism being shown by the financial authorities in the wake of the MF Global bankruptcy, we’ve been obliged to put together a new Scenario, devoted exclusively to preparing for a run on the markets: What to do in order to protect your assets from regulatory malfeasance, if there is a system-wide MF Global-type breakdown and a subsequent run on the entire financial system.

And there will be such a run on the system: It’s only a matter of time. In fact, the handling of the MF Global affair has sped up the timeframe for this run on the system, because the forward-edge players—such as Demeester, myself, and my other acquaintances who understand the implications of the bankruptcy—realize that the regulators will side with the banksters, and not the ordinary investors: So we are preparing accordingly.

Once there is a full-on panic, anyone with money in the system will lose at least a big chunk of it, in one of two ways, or a combination thereof:

• One, the firms—commodities brokerage firms, equity firms, investment banks and commercial banks—will not allow people to withdraw the totality of their money, and/or they will put a withdrawal cap of some sort, enforced by the central banks and other regulatory bodies. (Like they did in Argentina.)

• Two, the central banks will “provide liquidity”—that is, print money—while simultaneously declaring a banking holiday to, quote, “calm the markets”. During that bank holiday, the currency will be devalued by double digits—which will mean that your cash holdings will essentially be taxed to save the banksters—again. (Like they did in Argentina.)

Thus apart from proving that the United States really is Argentina with nukes, the MF Global bankruptcy has proven something crucial: The central banks and government regulators have completely fallen into the trap of confusing the welfare of the “Systemically Important Financial Institutions” with the welfare of the system itself. They don’t seem to realize that the SIFI’s are actors within the system—not the system itself.

We critics of the current, corrupt state of affairs also sometimes confuse the SIFI’s with the system itself, whenever we say, “The whole system is corrupt!”

But the system is not corrupt—it’s the regulators and SIFI’s who are corrupt. If nothing else, the handling of the MF Global bankruptcy has proven that, once and for all. That’s why we’re pulling out our money now—while we still can.

Because once the general public catches on to what we already know . . . oh boy." (snip) ...

Budget of an Interest Slave (Usury Slave)

2012-01-18T08:36:00.000-08:00

By Anthony Migchels

"The main reason why interest slavery goes largely unnoticed is because most of what we pay is invisible: it is included in prices. Producers cannot avoid capital costs and must pass these on to consumers.

It has been established that 45% of prices we pay are for interest on business loans or other capital costs. No less than 50% of taxes we pay go to servicing the National Debt and capital costs included in prices the Government pays. So what does the budget of a typical interest slave look like?

Here’s one from a young man, 31 years old, living in North Western Europe and working as a civil servant, making €37,200 per year. He has bought his own apartment a few years ago, so most of it is still property of the bank. He has a €10,000 credit line which he has used to decorate his place.

His monthly gross income is €3,100, of which €1,000 goes to income tax and other levies. Of this money, €500 is lost to interest on the National Debt and capital costs included in prices the Government pays.
His net income is €2,100.

Percentages differ per expenditure, depending on the capital intensity of the industry involved. The percentages in the left column are the fractions of the prices that are lost to interest." (snip) ...

Mutual Credit, the Astonishingly Simple Truth about Money Creation

2012-01-15T09:33:00.000-08:00

By Anthony Migchels

"Mutual Credit is the way money is created in barters worldwide. Barters don’t barter. They don’t use national currencies to finance their trade and that’s why they are called that way. But they use their own means of exchange to pay each other, so ‘barter’ is a misnomer.

It is an extremely cheap and simple way of creating money. Every participant is given an account and credit. Let’s say 1 Unit = 1 Dollar. This is actually how many of these systems work: it creates transparent pricing by using the national currency as the unit of account, but not as a means of exchange.

Let’s say every participant gets a 1000 Unit credit. In the beginning there is no money at all. It only comes into circulation when one of the participants uses his credit to pay another participant. If he uses his 1000 Units his balance is – 1000 U. His supplier’s balance is now +1000U. The total amount in circulation is now also 1000 U. This means there is always exactly as much in circulation as there is outstanding credit: a zero sum game.

If you understand the very primitive LETS, you basically understand how money should work. It really is that simple. Galbraith was not kidding when he said “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 the mind is repelled. With something so important, a deeper mystery seems only decent”.
But there is no deeper mystery. This is it.

One of the key reasons why privately operated barter units are not dominating in the real economy, is because until recently there was no known mechanism to create convertibility to other units, most importantly the national units. Amazingly, many of these barters actively resist convertibility and believe non-convertibility is a strength. It is not, of course, as it hinders the liquidity of the unit.
Lately, however, the right way to convertibility has been shown by Bitcoin and the Gelre: on-line markets where the units can be traded in a free market environment is the solid way forward.

Let’s explore a number of items to elucidate the matter.

1. Zero reserves are required
Therefore, the Mutual Credit Facility (MCF) does not need savers. It does not need to attract outside capital. It does not incur capital costs in creating credit. It can therefore operate interest free.

2. Mutual Credit Facilities typically finance themselves with monthly fees. These can be very low, about 10 dollars a month. Of course the outlet does need a minimum numbers of participants to be effective and acquire sufficient income to operate. But with only a thousand firms participating, already a viable business is possible.

3. Governments can easily create National Currencies using Mutual Credit. Commonwealths on other levels can do so too.

4. Debts that are not repaid lead to unbacked units in circulation. The cost for taking these out of circulation can be covered by taking a small one off fee when the credit is assigned. Defaults typically amount to 2% of total outstanding credit.

5. Serious sums of credit are backed by collateral.

6. The creditworthiness of participants is much higher than with banking, because debtors are not burdened with interest.

7. In the case of payment problems, Mutual Credit Facilities will typically not act in the same barbaric ways that banks do. The debt does not grow if repayment is lagging, because there is no interest. If a debtor defaults, underlying assets will be liquidated, but in the way least harmful to the debtor.

8. The MCF is intrinsically stable: it cannot provide more credit than it has assets, because it has no assets. Even if the MCF goes bust because it cannot finance it’s own operation, all the outstanding debts will be repaid and settled in other currencies. People holding the defunct units can expect to be (almost) fully reimbursed, even though this may take some time.

9. MCFs should preferably be Not for Profit entities. But commercial MCFs certainly are possible too.

10. There are no laws to stop Mutual Credit in the marketplace. But of course regulators are inimical to them.

11. MCF units can have their own unit of account (like with LETS), or they can use the National Unit as such.

12. MCF units are a means of exchange and should never be hoarded. They should be converted to other currencies, precious metals, durable goods, invested or used in other ways when people want to store wealth.

13. Mutual Credit is peer to peer. The MCFs exists only to see to the administration it brings. It is fundamentally democratic.

It is in this incredibly simple way that humanity can finance itself interest free. We can get rid of interest, not by outlawing it, but by creating all the cash we will ever need at zero cost.

We don’t need interest, there is no economic need for it and fully functional ways of creating credit without it are available now.

It will make obsolete capital markets, speculation, and exploitation through artificial scarcity. It ends the losses to inflation. It allows decentralized control of the economy.

It only needs growing awareness and dedicated people to implement it." (snip) ...

Why I Avoid Using A Microwave !!

2012-01-14T22:03:00.000-08:00

"It has been known for some years that the problem with microwaved anything is not the radiation people used to worry about, it's how it corrupts the DNA in the food so the body cannot recognize it.

Microwaves don't work different ways on different substances. Whatever you put into the microwave suffers the same destructive process. Microwaves agitate the molecules to move faster and faster. This movement causes friction which denatures the original make-up of the substance. It results in destroyed vitamins, minerals, proteins and generates the new stuff called radiolytic compounds, things that are not found in nature.

So the body wraps it in fat cells to protect itself from the dead food or it eliminates it fast. Think of all the Mothers heating up milk in these 'Safe' appliances. What about the nurse in Canada that warmed up blood for a transfusion patient and accidentally killed him when the blood went in dead. But the makers say it's safe. But proof is in the pictures of living plants dying!!

FORENSIC RESEARCH DOCUMENT
Prepared By: William P. Kopp
A. R. E. C. Research Operations
TO61-7R10/10-77F05
RELEASE PRIORITY: CLASS I ROO1a

Ten Reasons to dispose off your Microwave Oven

From the conclusions of the Swiss, Russian and German scientific clinical studies, we can no longer ignore the microwave oven sitting in our kitchens. Based on this research, one can conclude this article with the following:

1). Continually eating food processed from a microwave oven causes long term - permanent - brain damage by 'shorting out' electrical impulses in the brain [de-polarizing or de-magnetizing the brain tissue].

2). The human body cannot metabolize [break down] the unknown by-products created in microwaved food.

3). Male and female hormone production is shut down and/or altered by continually eating microwaved foods.

4). The effects of microwaved food by-products are residual [long term, permanent] within the human body.

5). Minerals, vitamins, and nutrients of all microwaved food is reduced or altered so that the human body gets little or no benefit, or the human body absorbs altered compounds that cannot be broken down.

6). The minerals in vegetables are altered into cancerous free radicals when cooked in microwave ovens.

7). Microwaved foods cause stomach and intestinal cancerous growths [tumors]. This may explain the rapidly increased rate of colon cancer in UK and America .

8). The prolonged eating of microwaved foods causes cancerous cells to increase in human blood.

9). Continual ingestion of microwaved food causes immune system deficiencies through lymph gland and blood serum alterations.

10). Eating microwaved food causes loss of memory, concentration, emotional instability, and a decrease of intelligence." (snip)

Notes About A "Private Membership Co-op" Or Association

2012-01-14T18:35:00.000-08:00

Why A Private Membership Co-op OR Association?

Under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, any individual or group of individuals has the absolute right to peaceably assemble. What does "peaceably assemble" mean? Well, obviously it does not mean simply gathering together as a group, for this activity is carried on regularly in nearly every country - regardless of their political leanings. What the Constitution is specifically guaranteeing is the right of individuals to assemble together into any type of collective organization for "peaceful" purposes. So, as long as the group does not promote harming others, or violating the law, they have a Constitutional right to assemble and organize to promote their purposes and ideas.

When an association is created and its purpose specifically identified, ALL individuals who join the association have their privacy and individual rights protected under the provisions of the United States Constitution. In contrast, a corporation, limited liability partnership, or licensed business does not possess the same protection afforded to an association.

This is best expressed by the Supreme Court decision in the case of Hale v. Henkel, 201 U.S. 43, 89 (1906) http://www.buildfreedom.com/tl/pct03.shtml "The individual may stand upon his constitutional rights as a citizen. He is entitled to carry on his private business in his own way. His power to contract is unlimited. He owes no duty to the State or to his neighbors to divulge his business or to open his doors to an investigation.... He owes no duty to the State, since he receives nothing there from; beyond the protection of his life and property....He owes nothing to the public so long as he does not trespass upon their rights."

If you ask the state for a benefit, privilege, license, permit etc., you have established the fact that you do not have the "right" to do whatever it is you are asking the state for permission to do. In fact, the term license means: A right, given by some competent authority to do and act, which without such authority would be illegal, or a tort or trespass." Bouvier's Law Dictionary, 3rd Ed, pg. 1974.

Do you have the right to associate for a peaceful purpose? A "Private" membership co-op can be established as a First Amendment Association. All of its members join by signing a "contract" which demonstrates their desire to participate. As such, both the co-op and its members are protected via the provisions of the United States Constitution. The opposite is not true for "government created" entities. Such entities are entirely subject to the restrictions, inspections, rules, regulations, seizures, audits, and decisions of the government agency established and empowered to oversee these entities. The purpose of such agencies is to protect the public from potential abuses of "public" businesses.

However, if a private association is created which is not open to the general public, it only influences the individuals who have voluntarily joined. Of course, as an association you cannot get business insurance, you cannot get business loans, and there are a host of other benefits you cannot use that are available only to government created and regulated entities. On the positive side, if properly established and operated, the association cannot be sued by disgruntled members, it cannot be regulated by government agencies, and it owes no obligation or duty to open its books and records to government inspection.

In this day and age we recognize the fact that special interest groups use powerful lobbying activities to create laws in their favor. One such group is the American Medical Association. Laws have been written in such a manner as to protect the medical practitioners and to create a monopoly regarding the treatment of disease.

[Please Note: The above information came from an association that recognized this fact and have organized their association so that they are not subject to the laws regulating "health-care" facilities. Additionally, they are careful not to use certain terms such as "heal" or "health care". According to the law, only a medical doctor can "heal".] (I guess God is a doctor then.)

Occupy the Neighbourhood: How Counties Can Use Land Banks and Eminent Domain

2012-01-14T15:45:00.000-08:00

By Ellen Brown

"An electronic database called MERS (Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems) has created defects in the chain of title to over half the homes in America. Counties have been cheated out of millions of dollars in recording fees, and their title records are in hopeless disarray. Meanwhile, foreclosed and abandoned homes are blighting neighborhoods. Straightening out the records and restoring the homes to occupancy is clearly in the public interest, and the burden is on local government to do it. But how? New legal developments are presenting some innovative alternatives.

John O'Brien is register of deeds for Southern Essex County, Massachusetts. He is mad as hell and he isn't going to take it anymore. He calls his land registry a "crime scene." A formal forensic audit of the properties for which he is responsible found that:

Only 16 percent of the mortgage assignments were valid.

Twenty-seven percent of the invalid assignments were fraudulent, 35 percent were "robo-signed" and 10 percent violated the Massachusetts Mortgage Fraud Statute.

The identity of financial institutions that are current owners of the mortgages could be determined for only 287 out of 473 (60 percent).

There were 683 missing assignments for the 287 traced mortgages, representing approximately $180,000 in lost recording fees per 1,000 mortgages whose current ownership could be traced.

At the root of the problem is that title has been recorded in the name of a private entity called MERS as a mere placeholder for the true owners. The owners are a faceless, changing pool of investors owning indeterminate portions of sliced and diced securitized properties. Their identities have been so well hidden that their claims to title are now in doubt. According to the auditor:

What this means is that ... the institutions - including many pension funds - that purchased these mortgages don't actually own them....

The March of the Attorneys General

John O'Brien was thrilled when Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley went to court in December against MERS and five major banks - Bank of America Corp., JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Citigroup and GMAC. Coakley says banks have "undermined our public land record system through the use of MERS."

Other attorneys general are also bringing lawsuits. Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden is going after MERS in a suit seeking $10,000 per violation. "Since at least the 1600s," he says, "real property rights have been a cornerstone of our society. MERS has raised serious questions about who owns what in America."

Biden's lawsuit alleges that MERS violated Delaware's Deceptive Trade Practices Act by:

Hiding the true mortgage owner and removing that information from the public land records.

Creating a systemically important, yet inherently unreliable, mortgage database that created confusion and inappropriate assignments and foreclosures of mortgages.

Operating MERS through its members' employees, whom MERS confusingly appoints as its corporate officers so that they may act on MERS' behalf.

Failing to ensure the proper transfer of mortgage loan documentation to the securitization trusts, which may have resulted in the failure of securitizations to own the loans upon which they claimed to foreclose.

This last allegation - that there are fatal defects in the loan documentation - may be even more conclusive than the MERS defect in establishing a break in the chain of title to securitized properties. Mortgage-backed securities are sold to investors in packages representing interests in trusts called REMICs (Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduits). REMICs are designed as tax shelters; but to qualify for that status, they must be "static."

Mortgages can't be transferred in and out once the closing date has occurred. The REMIC Pooling and Servicing Agreement typically states that any transfer after the closing date is invalid. Yet few, if any, properties in foreclosure seem to have been assigned to these REMICs before the closing date, in blatant disregard of legal requirements. The whole business is quite complicated, but the bottom line is that title has been clouded not only by MERS, but because the trusts purporting to foreclose do not own the properties by the terms of their own documents.

Courts Are Taking Notice

The title issues are so complicated that judges themselves have been slow to catch on, but they are increasingly waking up and taking notice. In some cases, the judge is not even waiting for the borrowers to raise lack of standing as a defense. In two cases decided in New York in December, the banks lost although their motions were either unopposed or the homeowner did not show up, and in one, there was actually a default. No matter, said the court; the bank simply did not have standing to foreclose." (snip) ...

The Smart Metre Issue

2012-01-11T21:03:00.000-08:00

Smart Meters: This is about as Big Brother as it gets ...

The smart meter issue is where many on the left and right agree. Did you know that "they" can turn off appliances in your home with the smart metres? This is similar to how "they" can turn off your vehicle ignition with satellite technology. AND we think we are FREE!!

The new smart meters are watching you. They sense all kinds of goings on. They see when you turn something on or off. They see how many watts your toothbrush pulls. They send the record of that little event over wireless networks, bouncing through your neighbors’ smart meters all the way to the power company where they keep a record of your power consumption volumes and patterns every minute of every day and store that data on computers that you will never get to see.

That data shows when you are at home, shows when you are sleeping, shows when you are on vacation, when you have visitors, when you use a lamp, a power tool, some extra computers, and if you look like you’re running a business out of your home. It even senses when you bootleg energy off the grid.

Your smart meter shows a vivid profile of your personal living patterns and if you were home on the night of the murder.

This is not electrical metering. This is personal surveillance. This is a search without a warrant every day. This is your personal private life going straight out through your electric meter to your power company, to your government, to the police, to the insurance company… to anyone who cuts a deal with your power company to look at your life under a microscope.

Sorry, it’s actually worse than that. People who don’t cut a deal can get your information too, by simply intercepting the wireless spewing from the side of your house. Yes, smart meters are radio transmitters licensed by the FCC. On this all-news radio station, every detail of your electrical life is shooting off to some institutional data center somewhere. Already, the police in Ohio, Texas, British Columbia, and places I don’t know about, are regularly using smart meter data to pinpoint marijuana grow houses, enforce business licenses, and punish people for doing things in the privacy of their own homes, that you are not supposed to do, that they would not even know that you were doing, if they were not spying on you.

Your power company gets to sell your life story to whomever it wants. Any unusual power consumption pattern is considered probable cause to raid you for growing marijuana or running a computer server without a business license.

This is about as Big Brother as it gets. Those friendly men with their truckload of smart meters are going door-to-door with something a little different than a Christmas carol.

My personal opinion is that you and I need to demand these things be taken off our homes. It is not possible for your power company to claim that they have the right to install a surveillance device on your house. Smart meters are no different than wire-tapping devices. And, in case you didn’t know, wire-tapping is illegal in all fifty of the states and federal territories.

If you let your power company put a smart meter on your house, you might as well walk around all day with a facebook helmet webcam pointed at yourself. They have convinced themselves that installing smart meters is lawful by some reaching-to-the-moon jive called “implied consent.” If you say they can change your meter, they contend that you consent, even though you don’t know really what they’re doing.

Tell them that they can’t change your meter. They had no trouble billing you with your old meter. If you send them a notice by certified mail that they may not install a smart meter or any other surveillance device on your house, their implied consent goes out the window. I would do that if I were you. In fact, I did that, and I’m not even you. You can see that letter below. You can copy and paste that into your word processor… The post office will give you the certified mail slip.

Those friendly guys on the sidewalk told me that they plan to put a smart meter on every house in America. If they do that, it will no longer be America.

NOTICE OF NO CONSENT TO TRESPASS AND SURVEILLANCE, NOTICE OF LIABILITY

Dear (Energy Provider) and all agents, officers, employees, contractors and interested parties,

If you intend to install a “Smart Meter” or any activity monitoring device at the above address, you and all other parties are hereby denied consent for installation and use of all such device on the above property and installation and use of any activity monitoring device is hereby refused and prohibited. Informed consent is legally required for installation of any surveillance device and any device that will collect and transmit private and personal data to undisclosed and unauthorized parties for undisclosed and unauthorized purposes. Authorization for sharing of personal and private information may only be given by the originator and subject of that information. That authorization is hereby denied and refused with regard to the above property and all its occupants. “Smart Meters” violate the law and cause endangerment to residents by the following factors:

1. They individually identify electrical devices inside the home and record when they are operated causing invasion of privacy.
2. They monitor household activity and occupancy in violation of rights and domestic security.
3. They transmit wireless signals which may be intercepted by unauthorized and unknown parties. Those signals can be used to monitor behavior and occupancy and they can be used by criminals to aid criminal activity against the occupants.
4. Data about occupant’s daily habits and activities are collected, recorded and stored in permanent databases which are accessed by parties not authorized or invited to know and share that private data.
5. Those with access to the smart meter databases can review a permanent history of household activities complete with calendar and time-of-day metrics to gain a highly invasive and detailed view of the lives of the occupants.
6. Those databases may be shared with, or fall into the hands of criminals, blackmailers, law enforcement, private hackers of wireless transmissions, power company employees, and other unidentified parties who may act against the interests of the occupants under metered surveillance.
7. “Smart Meters” are, by definition, surveillance devices which violate Federal and State wiretapping laws by recording and storing databases of private and personal activities and behaviors without the consent or knowledge of those people who are monitored.
8. It is possible for example, with analysis of certain “Smart Meter” data, for unauthorized and distant parties to determine medical conditions, sexual activities, physical locations of persons within the home, vacancy patterns and personal information and habits of the occupants.
9. Your company has not adequately disclosed the particular recording and transmission capabilities of the smart meter, or the extent of the data that will be recorded, stored and shared, or the purposes to which the data will and will not be put.

I forbid, refuse and deny consent of any installation and use of any monitoring, eavesdropping, and surveillance devices on my property, my place of residence and my place of occupancy. That applies to and includes “Smart Meters” and activity monitoring devices of any and all kinds. Any attempt to install any such device directed at me, other inhabitants, guests, my property or residence will constitute trespass, stalking, wiretapping and unlawful surveillance, all prohibited and punishable by law through criminal and civil complaints. All persons, government agencies and private organizations responsible for installing or operating monitoring devices directed at or recording my activities, which I have not specifically authorized in writing, will be fully liable for any violations, intrusions, harm or negative consequences caused or made possible by those devices whether those negative consequences are justified by “law” or not..

This is legal notice. After this delivery the liabilities listed above may not be denied or avoided by parties named and implied in this notice.

41 Facts About The History Of Central Banks In The United States

2012-01-11T09:49:00.000-08:00

- That Our Children Are No Longer Taught In School! -

Today, most American students don't even understand what a central bank is, much less that the battle over central banks is one of the most important themes in U.S. history. The truth is that our nation was birthed in the midst of a conflict over taxation and the control of our money. Central banking has played a key role in nearly all of the wars that America has fought.

Presidents that resisted the central bankers were shot, while others shamefully caved in to their demands.

Our current central bank is called the Federal Reserve and it is about as "federal" as Federal Express is. The truth is, that it is a privately owned financial institution (a corporation) that is designed to ensnare the U.S. government in an endlessly expanding spiral of debt, from which there is no escape.

The Federal Reserve caused the Great Depression and the Federal Reserve is at the core of our current economic crisis. None of these things is taught to students in America's schools today.

In this 21st Century, young Americans are taught a sanitized version of American history that doesn't even make any sense. As with so many things, if you want to know what really happened, just follow the money.

The following are 41 facts about the history of central banks in the United States that every American should know....

#1 As a result of the Seven Years War with France, King George III of England was deeply in debt to the central bankers of England.

#2 In an attempt to raise revenue, King George tried to heavily tax the colonies in America.

#3 In 1763, Benjamin Franklin was asked by the Bank of England why the colonies were so prosperous, and this was his response....
"That is simple. In the colonies we issue our own money. It is called Colonial Script. We issue it in proper proportion to the demands of trade and industry to make the products pass easily from the producers to the consumers.
In this manner, creating for ourselves our own paper money, we control its purchasing power, and we have no interest to pay to no one."

#4 The Currency Act of 1764 ordered the American Colonists to stop printing their own money. Colonial script (the money the colonists were using at the time) was to be exchanged at a two-to-one ratio for "notes" from the Bank of England.

#5 Later, in his autobiography, Benjamin Franklin explained the impact that this currency change had on the colonies....
"In one year, the conditions were so reversed that the era of prosperity ended, and a depression set in, to such an extent that the streets of the Colonies were filled with unemployed."

#6 In fact, Benjamin Franklin stated unequivocally in his autobiography that the power to issue currency was the primary reason for the Revolutionary War....
"The colonies would gladly have borne the little tax on tea and other matters had it not been that England took away from the colonies their money, which created unemployment and dissatisfaction. The inability of the colonists to get power to issue their own money permanently out of the hands of George III and the international bankers was the prime reason for the Revolutionary War."

#7 Governor Morris, one of the authors of the U.S. Constitution, solemnly warned us in 1787 that we must not allow the bankers to enslave us....
"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."

#8 Unfortunately, those warning us about the dangers of a central bank did not prevail. After an aborted attempt to establish a central bank in the 1780s, the First Bank of the United States was established in 1791. Alexander Hamilton (who had close ties to the Rothschild banking family) cut a deal under which he would support the move of the nation's capital to Washington D.C. in exchange for southern support for the establishment of a central bank.

#9 George Washington signed the bill creating the First Bank of the United States on April 25, 1791. It was given a 20-year charter.

#10 In the first five years of the First Bank of the United States, the U.S. government borrowed 8.2 million dollars and prices rose by 72 percent.

#11 The opponents of central banking were not pleased. In 1798, Thomas Jefferson said the following....
"I wish it were possible to obtain a single amendment to our Constitution - taking from the federal government their power of borrowing."

#12 In 1811, the charter of the First Bank of the United States was not renewed.

#13 One year later, the War of 1812 erupted. The British and the Americans were at war once again.

#14 In 1814, the British captured and burned Washington D.C., but the Americans subsequently experienced key victories at New York and at New Orleans.

#15 The Treaty of Ghent, officially ending the war, was ratified by the U.S. Senate on February 16th, 1815 and was ratified by the British on February 18th, 1815.

#16 In 1816, another central bank was created. The Second Bank of the United States was established and was given a 20-year charter.

#17 Andrew Jackson, who became president in 1828, was determined to end the power of the central bankers over the United States.

#18 In fact, in 1832, Andrew Jackson's re-election slogan was "JACKSON and NO BANK!"

#19 On July 10th, 1832 President Jackson said the following about the danger of a central bank.... "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."

#20 In 1835, President Jackson completely paid off the U.S. national debt. He is the only U.S. president that has ever been able to accomplish this.

#21 President Jackson vetoed the attempt to renew the charter of the Second Bank of the United States in 1836.

#22 Richard Lawrence attempted to shoot Andrew Jackson, but he survived. It is alleged that Lawrence said that "wealthy people in Europe" had put him up to it.

#23 The Civil War was another opportunity for the central bankers of Europe to get their hooks into America. In fact, it is claimed that Abraham Lincoln actually contacted Rothschild banking interests in Europe in an attempt to finance the war effort. Reportedly, the Rothschild's were demanding very high interest rates and Lincoln balked at paying them.

#24 Instead, Lincoln pushed through the Legal Tender Act of 1862. Under that act, the U.S. government issued $449,338,902 of debt-free money.

#25 This debt-free money was known as "Greenbacks" because of the green ink that was used.

#26 The central bankers of Europe were not pleased. The following quote appeared in the London Times in 1865....
"If this 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."

#27 Abraham Lincoln was shot dead by John Wilkes Booth on April 14th, 1865.

#28 Bankers buying U.S. government bonds in exchange for bank notes created After the Civil War, all money in the United States.

#29 James A. Garfield became president in 1881, and he was a staunch opponent of the banking powers. In 1881 he said the following....
"Whoever controls the volume of money in our 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."

#30 President Garfield was shot about two weeks later by Charles J. Guiteau on July 2nd, 1881. He died from medical complications on September 19th, 1881.

#31 In 1906, the U.S. stock market was setting all kinds of records. However, in March 1907 the U.S. stock market absolutely crashed. It is alleged that elite New York bankers were responsible.

#32 In addition, in 1907 J.P. Morgan circulated rumors that a major New York bank had gone bankrupt. This caused a massive run on the banks. In turn, the banks started recalling all of their loans. The panic of 1907 resulted in a congressional investigation that ended up concluding that a central bank was "necessary" so that these kinds of panics would never happen again.

#33 It took a few years, but the international bankers finally got their central bank in 1913.
[In here, the Federal Reserve--American's Central Bank--was formed by a secret meeting of members of the major banking dynasties belonging to the Illuminati--representing J.P.Morgan, Rockefellers, and the Rothschilds--on Jekyl Island, Georgia, November 22, 1910...]

#34 Congress voted on the Federal Reserve Act on December 22nd, 1913 between the hours of 1:30 AM and 4:30 AM.--Without a lawful quorum!!

#35 A significant portion of Congress was either sleeping at the time or was already at home with their families celebrating the holidays.

#36 The president that signed the law that created the Federal Reserve, Woodrow Wilson, later sounded like he very much regretted the decision when he wrote the following....
"A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is privately concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men ... [W]e have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated, governments in the civilized world--no longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and the duress of small groups of dominant men."

#37 Between 1921 and 1929 the Federal Reserve increased the U.S. money supply by 62 percent. [Just like they are today!!} This was the time known as "The Roaring 20s".

#38 In addition, highly leveraged "margin loans" became very common during this time period.

#39 In October 1929, the New York bankers started calling in these margin loans on a massive scale. This created the initial crash that launched the Great Depression. (The money supply was cut by 86% that really caused the depression)

#40 Rather than expand the money supply in response to this crisis, the Federal Reserve really tightened it up.
#41 In fact, it was reported the U.S. money supply contracted by eight billion dollars between 1929 and 1933. That was an extraordinary amount of money in those days. Over one-third of all U.S. banks went bankrupt. The New York bankers were able to buy up other banks and all kinds of other assets for pennies on the dollar.

But are American students being taught any of this today? Of course not! In fact, it is a rare student that can even adequately explain what a central bank is. We have lost so much of what is important about our history. And you know what they say - those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.

It is absolutely critical that we educate as many Americans as possible about what is really going on in our financial system and about why we need to make some truly fundamental changes.

Billions For The Bankers - Debts For The People

2012-01-09T21:31:00.000-08:00

By Pastor Sheldon Emery

Preface

"The love of money is the root of all evil." (1 Tim. 6:10) "If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury." Exodus 22:25

"Take no usury of him, or increase...thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury." Leviticus 25:36-67

"Unto thy brother thou shalt not lend upon usury: That the Lord thy God may bless thee." Deuteronomy 23:20

In the early Church, any interest on debt was considered usury.

"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them (around the banks), will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered." -- Thomas Jefferson

Three Types Of Conquest

History reveals nations can be conquered by the use of one or more of three methods. The most common is conquest by war. In time, though, this method usually falls, because the captives hate the captors and rise up and drive them out if they can. Much force is needed to maintain control, making it expensive for the conquering nation.

A second method is by religion, where men are convinced they must give their captors part of their earnings as "obedience to God." Such a captivity is vulnerable to philosophical exposure or by overthrow by armed force, since religion by its nature lacks military force to regain control, once its captives become "disillusioned."

The third method can be called economic conquest. It takes place when nations are placed under "tribute" without the use of visible force or coercion, so that the victims do not realize they have been conquered. "Tribute" is collected from them in the form of "legal" debts and taxes, and they believe they are paying it for their own good, for the good of others, or to protect all from some enemy. Their captors become their "benefactors" and "protectors." Although this is the slowest to impose, it is often quite long-lasting, as the captives do not see any military force arrayed against them, their religion is left more or less intact, they have freedom to speak and to travel, and they participate in "elections" for their rulers. Without realizing it, they are conquered, and the instruments of their own society are used to transfer their wealth to their captors and make the conquest complete. In 1900 the average American worker paid few taxes and had little debt.

Last year payments on debts and taxes took more than half of what he earned. Is it possible a form of conquest has been imposed on our people?

Read the following pages and decide for yourself. And may God have mercy on this once debt-free and great nation...

Billions for the Bankers, Debts for the People

Introduction

"In 1901 the national debt of the United States was less than $1 billion. It stayed at less than $1 billion until we got into World War I. Then it jumped to $25 billion.

The national debt nearly doubled between World War I and World War II, increasing from $25 to $49 billion.

Between 1942 and 1952, the debt zoomed from $72 billion to $265 billion. In 1962 it was $303 billion. By 1970, the debt had increased to $383 billion.

Between 1971 and 1976 it rose from $409 billion to $631 billion. The debt experienced its greatest growth, however, during the 1980s, fueled by an unprecedented peacetime military buildup. In 1998, the outstanding public debt will roar past $5.5 trillion.

The unconstitutional "share" of this debt for every man, woman and child is currently $20,594.86 and will continue to increase an average of $630 million every day, which dosn't include the $26 trillion in individual credit card debts, mortgages, automobile leases and so on.

U.S. NATIONAL DEBT

The Outstanding Public Debt as of 08/25/98 at 10:28:37 AM PDT is: $5,516,699,306,752.93

The estimated population of the United States is 270,374,697 so each citizen's share of this debt is $20,403.90.

Today, as we stand before the dawn of a New World Order run by internationalist financiers, most of the revenue collected by the Federal government in the form of individual income taxes will go straight to paying the interest on the debt alone. At the rate the debt is increasing, eventually we'll reach a point where, even if the government takes every penny of its citizens' income via taxation, it will still not collect enough to keep up with the interest payments.

The government will own nothing, the people will own nothing, and the banks will own everything. The New World Order will foreclose on America.

If the present trend continues, and there is no evidence whatsoever that it will not continue, we can expect the national debt to nearly double again within the next six to eight years. By then, the interest on the debt alone should be in the $400 billion a year range.

2012-01-09T19:14:00.000-08:00

"Jesus was a beautiful Jew who was killed by the elite Jewish “money changers” who were per ping the fraud of usury on the People. The ultimate pacifist got violent just once, and only with one group. As the “money changers” are and have always been the REAL POWER behind the throne; Jesus condemned Himself.

He didn’t care because He knew his soul was immortal. We need to give up our fears, and take on the “money changers” ourselves. Not by force, but peacefully removing our energy from their usury based systems. We must find the courage of Christ. Remember this single idea this Christmas.

WE CAN DO THIS! WE MUST DO THIS!

Jesus was killed for the same reason that most people are killed. Usury. Caesar/Lincoln were killed because they resisted usury. The Bible warns of usury 15x. The Quran forbids the same(riba). Elite Jewish “money changers” permit usury on gentiles. Usury is a mathematic fraud just like a Ponzi. Jesus got violent with the elite Jewish “money changers”.

The “money changers” are a “den of thieves” as USURY has 100% chance to destroy. It is IMPOSSIBLE for all borrowers to pay their debts as interest money is NOT created. Some will now argue that Jesus was angry as ANY business was being conducted “in the Temple”. Is ANY business theft? Of course not. Jesus called them “thieves”. Usury is ALWAYS theft. Just like a Ponzi.

Usury destroys even on gold/silver money. If the “money changers” loan the People $1M gold at 1%, the total debt is $1,010,000. But, how do the People pay $10k in gold interest money? IE: How do you pay $1,010,000, if only $1,000,000 is in circulation?

All borrowers cannot pay the usury back. Most WILL pay their loans back, but some are guaranteed to lose their homes, businesses, governments, cars, independence, jobs, and their dignity. The People must either default, and lose their collateral; or borrow more.

The original sin of man is USURY. The “money changers” usury is the cause of war, hate, famine, bailouts, and loss of sovereignty. Usury is the funding source for tyranny across the globe. Usury the debt Ponzi in which the world is collapsing into.

Usury destroys when we have big government, small government, or even NO government.

Usury will confiscate the world on behalf of the “money changers” who can cloak themselves in any political party, movement, revolution, religion, race. “Money changers” can be “End the Fed”, 9,11 truth, or the opposite. “Money changers” need only 1 thing to survive as parasites on the producers of the world. “Money changers” need usury only.

Usury was the cause of the Holocaust, and the sacrifice of beautiful Jews on behalf of the Rothshchilds, and Zionism. Did you know that elite Zionist Jews financed Hitler through the “Transfer Agreement”? “Politics makes strange bedfellows” and both Hitler, and the Zionists wanted the Jews out of the comforts and culture of Europe, and into the dust of Palestine."

Mama Therese Departs Planet Earth

2012-01-09T18:04:00.000-08:00

By John ‘KingofthePaupers’ Turmel

One of the greatest moms ever passed away on the afternoon of January 9, 2012. Born April 17th, 1929, Therese Turmel mother of John “KingofthePaupers” Turmel” and brother Raymond Turmel - school teacher, translator, always supportive of our mission of creating a usuryfree lifestyle for everyone on this planet.

She'd been suffering from Raynaud's disease, weak circulation to the point gangrene develops and the extremities end up amputated. Her hands were numbed and she'd already lost her first foot and her second foot had just started acting up. We were expecting it to have to be amputated like the first.

  But this afternoon, she just stopped breathing while I was with her. I tried to shake her with no response. I called 911 and they had me do chest compressions for the 3 minutes until the emergency crew arrived. They got her pulse back and then took her to the hospital but when I got there, the  doctor told me that she had passed away.

  Keep in mind that this the mom who went to a bank to borrow money to get me the $3,000 I needed in 1974 to go gamble in Las Vegas on my first junket and set me off on my life of ease. That's at least $15,000 today. How many moms do you know would borrow money to send the kid to Vegas to start me off my my life of crime?   

Anyway, I had the honor and the pleasure of taking care of her in her last days and can admit that her passing away in 20 minutes was a blessing compared to the end I had envisioned she'd have suffered otherwise. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise though her brain was working fine.   

And she promised to take as good care of me the next time around in the next life as she had in this one.   She wanted to be cremated and we'll have a memorial for her in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec where most of our relatives are based in the spring so she can be buried beside her parents. She had a great fun life and was a great fun person. Plus she did the dishes, ironing and proof-reading of all my  official stuff. Useful until the end. Like her generation always sought to be.  

I guess we'll need a new Chief Financial Officer of the new Pauper Party of Ontario!

  I know I'm going to miss her greatly and the greatest disappointment is that she will not be around to see the fulfillment of Mayan Prophecy, an interest-free world she helped me fight for all her life too. Just like her father Adelard and mother Angelina, she was staunch Social Crediter too!

I know what banquet table she's sitting at in Heaven, with the other great Abolitionists of usury in history! Bye mama. Loved living with you in this dimension, can't wait to see you in the next. 

P.S. No need to send condolences, friends. I know how you feel.   

John C. "The Banking Systems Engineer" Turmel, KingofthePaupers, Great Canadian Gambler, TajProfessor, Author of the UNILETS interest-free time-based currency United Nations Millennium Declaration C6 in the http://www.un.org/millennium/declaration.htm

NOTE: I (Tom J. Kennedy) had the privilege of meeting Therese Turmel in the early 1980’s very soon after I met John. I recall Therese Turmel as one of our Independent candidates in the Canadian federal election of 1984. Indeed, she was a remarkable mother and a truly dedicated usuryfree creative. May she rest in peace and enjoy usuryfree heaven.

A few quotes from Therese Turmel in one of John’s election campaigns in 1997:

“My name is Theresa Turmel, John Turmel's mother. I could start by saying that he was never like everybody else when he was young. Okay? And it used to bother me a lot when I would see him playing cards and playing solitaire and it turns out he's making his living out of that. So what can I say. I can't say I don't agree. And who keeps mother going with cars and sending her south and.. so, it was good that I didn't stop him from doing what he wanted to do... He wanted to go to Vegas and I just had a little house, was making payments, and everything, I was working though, working as translator, so anyway, I didn't have the money. He said "well, would you go make a loan?" Well, I'll go and try. So I got a three thousand dollar loan and he went to Vegas and he came back and he had sixteen hundred dollars more than when he left. So that was fine. I never regretted  it. Why should I?”

Money – “Out of Nothing”

2011-12-27T18:37:00.000-08:00

By David Icke

“If you added together all the forms of taxation that we pay in a year and subtracted that from your income, you would be shocked at how much of the energy you receive for your energy given goes back to the system in taxation alone. Ultimately, this money/energy ends up in the Rothschild ‘lake’ and this is why, despite the ever-increasing taxation, we get ever-decreasing quality of services which this money is supposed to be paying for. Add to this the interest (usury) paid to the banks for ‘borrowing’ non-existent money called ‘credit’ and you se that humanity is being energetically and systematically sucked dry.

The economic system, headed by the House of Rothschild, has been created to vampire the life-force of the global population. The public see money, but the Rothschilds see everything as energy, which, of course, it is. We call money ‘currency,’ but it should be ‘current-cy’. This is how the Rothschilds use it, as like an electrical current which they circulate and then get back at a much greater voltage, or ‘plus interest’ (usury).

The Rothschilds control the global financial system and have accumulated their power by theft and exploitation. Their whole system is based on a gigantic fraud because there is no money as we perceive it. The paper money and coins in your pocket are backed by nothing. Their value is only the value that we can be persuaded they have. They are just worthless pieces of paper (a promise-to-pay or promissory note) and pieces of metal that we are tricked into taking seriously. Most ‘money’ is not even something you can hold today. It is only figures on a computer screen – current-cy in every sense.

‘Money’ is brought into circulation through what is called ‘credit,’ but what is this ‘credit?’ It is a belief-system, that’s all, a belief that it exists. The banks are not lending us anything and we are paying them fortunes to do so.

The bloodline families, particularly the Rothschilds have controlled governments and banking for centuries and they have been able to dictate the laws of the financial system and introduce what is called ‘fractional reserve lending.’ This allows banks to lend at least tem times what they have on deposit.

In other words, they are lending ‘money’ they don’t have and that doesn’t exist – called ‘credit’ – and are charging interest (usury) on it. When you go to a bank to borrow, you have to provide ‘collateral’ by signing over your house, land, car or business, and this will go to the bank if you don’t meet the repayments. What is the bank giving you in return for this? Nothing!

If money was put into circulation interest-free, (usuryfree) and there was no interest (usury) on money in any form, it would return to its rightful role as a unit of energy exchange that overcomes the limitations of barter. It is when you introduce interest (usury) that the trouble starts because then you are making money from money and it no longer serves the people – it enslaves them.

The bank credit/interest (usury) system means that the unit of exchange for human activity comes into circulation right from the start as debt. Governments could create their own money interest-free (usuryfree) to pay for public services, but instead they borrow it from the banking system and the population has to pay it back, plus interest (usury).

It is the same with individuals and businesses. Governments don’t create their own interest-free (usuryfree) money because they are controlled by the families who also control the banks, most notably the Rothschilds.” - David Icke, page 90-91 in the book "Human Race Get Off Your Knees - The Lion Sleeps No More."

NOTE: I highly recommend this book authored by David Icke. Its 645 pages of content covers so many timely and relevant topics exposing the lies, deceits and deceptions being foisted upon we-the-people - who are awakening to what's really going on in their New World Order. You cannot read this book and be the same person you were before you picked it up. It is life-changing, reality-changing and its information, if acted upon will set us free.

Occupy The Global Financial System

2011-12-22T08:41:00.000-08:00

By Benjamin Fulford

"The first historic trades within the new financial system have taken place!

The many global, independent trading networks all over the planet are rapidly connecting with each other, forming an infinitely expanding web of local and international commerce, exchange and trade.

People have woken up to the fact: for most of what we spend WE DO NOT NEED GOVERNMENT ISSUED MONEY. In fact, so many different groups have been abusing the money system, it can no longer fulfil its original purposes, which were:

a) as a medium of exchange

b) as a unit of account, and

c) as a store of value

It is the last of these that has led to systemic abuse and criminality, along with usury – the charging of interest. Money stopped merely facilitating things (a job it can do supremely well) and started to be seen as value in itself – which is one reason why so much is out of circulation! The ‘value’ is being hoarded, availability manipulated, markets distorted. No wonder the older religions all forbade usury – for they knew that the usurer and his schemes means that he always ends up owning everything, and tends to manipulate ruthlessly to that end.

There have been some interesting clues as to how this controlling and enslaving global finance system might be broken up. In the 1980’s, in Canada, a man called Michael Linton named the first Local Exchange Trading systems (LETS), from which a number were established. They then spread around the planet, but were largely ignored by anyone even remotely mainstream. The system, in brief, means that you have a local, non-interest bearing currency, and members of the system trade together for all sorts of goods and services: up to 70% of everything you need can be acquired this way in a properly run system with enough members. See definition at:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_exchange_trading_system
Then there were time banks, e-currencies…and many other innovations. Over thirty years the expertise has spread to everywhere. For Time Bank description, see:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_banking
One of the most sophisticated, just coming into full operation, is Liverpool, England-based TGL: see: http://www.tgl.tv/The first big clue to how these generic system types might be deployed was when Argentina got into trouble with the banksters, and threw out the IMF. The nation was in deep financial crisis – but very quickly, LETS systems sprang up, so that the people that participated were not disadvantaged. The same has happened recently in Greece. One Greek man, interviewed for a You Tube piece, said of the emergence of LETS – “I am amazed: I can afford things I could never have bought before”.

In other words, this generic type of system leads to increased abundance – not what you might expect in the midst of what the media tends to paint as ‘siege economies’. Meaning that people are real and can get on with it – while many aspects of government today are a variety of fictions, and fall apart under stresses that are also substantially of fictional making.

The upshot? SYSTEMS LIKE LETS, AND MANY INNOVATIVE VARIANTS, ARE IN PROCESS TO TAKE OVER. Just as things like computers have moved from huge, centralised systems to distributed PC’s on everyone’s desktop, the financial system is becoming distributed down to the level of community. Indeed, these systems ARE the community level of the NEW GLOBAL FINANCIAL SYSTEM. The new System is literally everywhere already, spreading a like new knowledge to the 100 monkeys!

There is a lot of software for these systems, much of it available for free. For a good list of examples, see: http://www.letslinkuk.net/software/The new system' developers know that people are 'the gold' that backs and assures this system's success

As the groups link with each other the Products, services and reach of this network grows daily.

Many of the groups and systems are not listed here yet, for obvious reasons, however they soon will be. In the meantime, we suggest you look at the links above, then do a computer search for local exchange networks in your area and get involved.

In the (probably) trying times ahead, joining a LETS-type system IS ONE OF THE MOST POSITIVE FINANCIAL SURVIVAL STEPS YOU CAN TAKE

Software, electronic payment, credit, debit facilities and new currencies are all part of the range of technologies already operational in these new systems. All this and more is available for new groups to implement in all regions, countries, communities!

Details re access to all info will be made available in the next weeks.

Some of the exciting applications of the new financial systems include self funding of various communities and other initiatives, starting small and growing to include the, food, health, water treatment, education, new green power and other technologies, all waiting in readiness, for this ability to fund them, to arrive!

As stated, all are welcome, including those of the old regime, subject only to the simple credo of Inclusion, and operating for The Greatest Good of All.

Those of the old regime are invited to make contact, if they sincerely wish to cooperate. Their resources, systems and networks will still be of value if they are contributed in alignment with the above philosophy. Alternatively, they may want to research the truth of what is reported here, ie, that this process of the establishment of and implementation of the new, 'people's financial system, IS happening, IS expanding, rapidly, and IS beyond anyone's control, due to the fact that it is backed by some 200 million enlightened people!

Geo-Engineering and Synthetic Reality

Disentangling Ourselves from Illusions & Setting our Spirit Free
By Jack Allis

NOTE: Though this well written article does not deal directly with "usury" or "usuryfree" issues, it certainly is related and necessary background information - and the author offers solution-oriented ideas as well. Please share with others in cyberspace.

"Geo-engineering is a technical term used to describe chemtrails. I didn't want to use chemtrails in my title or subject line because I was afraid it would scare everyone away. This is a subject that is clearly taboo. In case you don't know, chemtrails are the gunk that we can see being sprayed into our atmosphere, practically every day, throughout North America and many other countries, without any discussion, and without asking anybody's permission. People don't want to talk about it, or even see what's going on right in front of their eyes. They think it's just too paranoid, or way too much conspiracy nuttiness. The folks in the New Age accuse you of creating negative or dark energy for even thinking about such things.

Why such resistance, particularly at a time when so many people are waking up to so many of the other crimes in our world? I think it's because if this is true, it's just too huge, and it stretches people beyond where they are able to go. I think a lot of people believe that the powers that be (we'll talk about who they are shortly) are just not capable of something this evil. As you'll see shortly, they are. For many people, it also totally blows up their traditional understanding of how the world works, and they're just not ready for that. But I've got news for you. People better get themselves ready because things are coming to a head in our world. Worlds are changing. We are in the midst of the shift of the ages, and these monumental transformations are not going to wait for us.

Why do I make such a big deal out of this? Let's start with because it's one of the greatest crimes in a world that is loaded with them, and it is going on in broad daylight. In my world, that's a big deal. But there's more to it than that. My mission is always the same: to help people reconnect with their full power as spiritual beings, so that we can transform the world at this critical time. To do this it is imperative that we understand how the world really works, instead of the illusions that are foisted upon us, which are designed to strip us of our power, and enslave us. We cannot set our spirits free from the weight of these illusions unless we first know what they are.

In this article, we will journey down the rabbit hole of examining chemtrails, and follow the thread of what they are, who's doing it, and why. Along the way, we will be shedding light on a long string of illusions, which nicely illustrate the big picture of the total illusion of our world. This is what we must disentangle ourselves from. But we mustn't stop there, as so many do, which is why they get stuck in fear and helplessness. Once we are free, then the real work begins - to reach our full potential as multi-dimensional spiritual beings, which, ultimately is the primary source of our protection and our power to persevere and flourish in these challenging times.

So, let's start at the beginning. What are chemtrails? To answer this, we must first distinguish between contrails and chemtrails. The American Heritage College Dictionary (1997) defines a contrail as "a visible trail of streaks of condensed water vapor or ice crystals, sometimes forming in the wake of an aircraft." Another feature of contrails, about which there seems to be a general scientific consensus, is that they exist for a few moments, and then dissipate, and disappear. How is this different from what we see today? What we see today trailing behind jet aircraft are smoke-like fumes that stretch for long distances, sometimes virtually all the way across the sky. They are thick and puffy, sometimes with a grayish or brownish tint, and sometimes with dark lines, like shadows, along their edges. They do not dissipate. They tend to expand, commonly forming checkerboard-like patterns that fill the sky. They often expand to the point where they form their own cloud patterns, or fill the entire sky with a mist. Since chemtrails, our entire world has become mistier. The sky isn't as blue, and there aren't as many stars at night.

These are chemtrails. Direct observation and simple common sense tell us a few other things. First, they have not been around for that long, and nowhere near as long as jet aircraft technology. Chemtrails first started appearing late in the decade of the 1990's. At first, they were infrequent, smaller, and far less in number. If chemtrails are simply contrails, then it must follow that drastic changes occurred at this time in either jet aircraft technology or atmospheric conditions to bring this about. We know this is not the case, especially since chemtrails are everywhere, under all atmospheric conditions. We also know from independent researchers, with very powerful telescopes, that these aircraft are white tankers, with no identifiable markings.

Clearly, chemtrails are not contrails. Something is being sprayed from these aircraft. But what? What do chemtrails consists of? I must say at the outset that I am only going to be covering one angle on chemtrails, and it is the one I hear most commonly referenced. It's an angle that is also extremely pertinent to a primary theme of my work, which is our ability to survive as a species during this critical time of shift. My primary source is a DVD, What in the World are They Spraying? - produced by G. Edward Griffin (http://www.realityzone.com). It must be pointed out that chemtrails don't necessary consist of just one substance. They might consist of different things at different times, and there might be multiple objectives.

If the public ever wakes up to this crime, the official line will most certainly be that it is being done for our own good, to protect us. We will probably be told that it is to protect us from global warming, and that without this feat of geo-engineering, we would have been fried to a crisp by now. This angle has already been analyzed and debunked by credible scientists, and it is one of the many angles I am not going to go into in depth here. If you are interested in taking a look at the full array of theories and possibilities about chemtrails, I encourage you to do a search, but buckle your seatbelt for a wild ride. And beware of all the disinformation, and real craziness, so rampant on the Internet.

What are chemtrails? The research in What in the World are They Spraying? shows that chemtrails consist of tiny particles of metals. Specifically, these metals are aluminum, barium and strontium, with the percentages of aluminum far exceeding the other two. This finding is corroborated by most of the open-minded research. This can be measured because these particles don't dissolve or remain in the atmosphere, but rather fall to the Earth, and leave a residue, which is easy to distinguish from pollen or dust or similar looking residues. These metals are toxic to humans if ingested, as well as to other forms of animal, plant and organic life. Samples that were taken from water and soil in such pristine places as Mount Shasta, California and Hawaii showed levels of these metals, particularly aluminum, that were hundreds and thousands of times the normal levels.

The most shocking revelation comes from a sample of organic farmers, who observed that their plants, grown from natural seeds, were growing and reproducing at significantly diminished levels in this aluminum contaminated soil. Furthermore, they concluded, if the contamination continued at its current rate, the only seeds that would germinate in this soil would be seeds that were genetically engineered to be aluminum resistant.

I trust you can see that the ramifications of this are monstrous. It has become well known that there is an agenda to genetically modify and monopolize our commercial food supply, at the hands of the huge agricultural corporations, such as Monsanto. The supermarkets are already filled with this synthetic food. But this is even more insidious. It means the human beings of this planet would be incapable of sustaining themselves by growing their own natural food, with seeds they cultivated themselves. We have learned from our indigenous sisters and brothers that nothing is more important in life than our capability to sustain ourselves by living in harmony with the Earth and with the rest of the natural world. This is particularly true during these monumental times of transformation and shift, in which our old paradigm world is rapidly approaching its inevitable end. Our capability to sustain ourselves is the primary source of our power to recreate the world, and ourselves, and survive as the species nature designed us to be.

And keep in mind this is only one aspect of chemtrails. There are numerous other possibilities. We haven't even touched upon the very real possibility of weather modification, not forgetting that much of the extreme weather we are experiencing is a natural feature of the Earth changes that come with the shift. And I would be remiss in this regard if I didn't mention HAARP (High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program), which is frequently referenced in relation to chemtrails. HAARP is a government/military installation in Alaska, which uses the highest of high-tech technology, including radio and electromagnetic waves, ostensibly to research the atmosphere, but clandestinely, as many believe, to influence and control it. There is another theory that maintains these metals or other substances are creating an electronic soup in the atmosphere, to facilitate the transmission of other electronic or high-tech signals.

There are other grim possibilities that deserve our attention. One is that chemtrails consist of biological organisms or agents, perhaps created in high-tech laboratories, as in germ warfare. It is believed by many that a new and very bizarre disease, Morgellons Disease, is caused by this. This is one of those things people have a hard time accepting because it's just too evil, but it's really not that far-fetched, especially when you consider the various other agendas that are poisoning the general population with so many highly toxic pharmaceuticals, like vaccines with children. There is another school of thought that believes that chemtrails exhibit features of nanotechnology, which means these particles are part organic and part artificial intelligence, like tiny computers. I know some of this stuff gets pretty far out, like science fiction. But once we begin to understand the diabolical nature of what we're dealing with, which we'll cover more of in a second, we can't take anything for granted.

Now that we know a little about this, let's talk about who's responsible for doing it, and what the overall objective is. This requires a little more time because the question of who's ultimately in charge is a complex and mysterious one. First of all, we can assume that this project comes from the highest levels because it is so massive and ubiquitous. Most people leap to the assumption that the Federal Government must be involved, in cahoots with the military establishment. This is incorrect. In fact, the US Government is powerless, including the president. It is a puppet, owned and controlled by people and interests external to it, a rubber stamp for decisions made higher up. If the military is involved, which is possible, it is under some other command. Remember President Eisenhower's parting words: beware of the military-industrial complex. And it's not the huge multi-national corporations, though they might be involved, many of which clearly overlap the government and the military. It's becoming more and more popular to blame these guys for everything. There's an element of truth to this, but it goes deeper. The same can be said for the ultra-rich families in Europe and the US, with names like Rothschild and Rockefeller, who own the largest international banks, as well as all the national banks, like the Federal Reserve, and which create our money. We're getting warmer, but it goes even deeper still.

As we move our way up this pyramid of power, things start to get very murky. This is because those who are at the top of this pyramid operate in secret. Nobody knows for certain who they really are. The closest we can come to identifying them is through elitist secret societies, such as the Council on Foreign Relations and the Bilderberg Group, which pose as public policy think tanks, but where, in fact, most of the important decisions are made, or at least handed down from somewhere else, and presented as policy. And tracing who these shadowy folks are is an exhaustive and complicated project, which basically involves examining the entire traditional version of the history of our civilization, dating back 6000 years to its beginnings in Sumer or Babylon. It also involves rewriting it because it is a hoax, one of the many illusions that are foisted upon us. For the complete story on this, I refer you to my latest book, Prophesy, Challenge & Blessing - Visions of 2012 & the Shift, particularly Chapter Five, Understanding the Dark Side, where there are also other references.

For our purposes here, I am going to zip through this, and cover only the highlights. For many of you, this might be a leap, but we must include it. If we don't, our world simply makes no sense at all, and in a divinely ordered universe, it must. First of all, Western Civilization, or the white man's civilization, which has been the dominant force in the world since its beginning, has always been ruled and controlled by a few elite families. These families are also interrelated bloodlines, which can be traced back to the kings and queens of antiquity, and to the "gods" of virtually every ancient religious text, including the Bible. It is also a virtual certainty that highly advanced civilizations existed on this planet since far before the beginning of our so-called history, on a scale of tens or hundreds of thousands of years, perhaps far longer. It is another virtual certainty that extraterrestrials arrived on this planet during these same ancient time frames, and played the leading role in these civilizations. These ET's also interbred with the indigenous humans of those times, creating a race of genetic hybrids - part ET, part human. A compelling case can be made that these elite families were (and are) composed of these genetic hybrids. Another compelling case can be made that the entire white race is such a hybrid species. The most recent of these civilizations, Atlantis, was destroyed, in all probability, around 13,000 years ago by a geophysical catastrophe of global proportions, a great flood, which, again, is covered in ancient religious texts from cultures spanning the globe.

OK, now that we've got that out of the way, what else can we deduce about these folks at the top of the pyramid, let's call them the elite, by observing them throughout history. These people, or beings, have no affinity for planet Earth or its people. Its history has been one of continuous expansion and conquest, including the extermination of indigenous people around the globe, and the destruction of their way of life and their spirituality. Actually, their agenda is the polar opposite of the indigenous, for whom the most important thing in life was to live sustainably in harmony with the Earth and with the forces of nature. The elite worship at the altar of a different god. This is technology, and this means continuous technological progress, without limits, and without regard for preserving the eco-systems upon which human life depends. Their ultimate goal is a world where everything is controlled by technology, or other non-organic or synthetic processes, which are created by man, not nature. I refer to this as synthetic reality. This would include artificial intelligence, where people are replaced by machines, and where the rest of the natural world will be replaced by their synthetic equivalent. Basically, what they are doing is playing god. It is nothing less than a rebellion against the creation.

Can they succeed at this? Ultimately, no, they cannot. The laws of nature and of a divinely ordered universe will prevail. But they sure can make a mess of things on this planet as they try.

Where do human beings fit into all this? We are nothing more than pawns to be tinkered with, and to be deceived and manipulated into a state of slavery. Like the Earth and all of the other natural elements, humanity is slowly being poisoned by the food, water and air they ingest, by a vast array of pharmaceutical substances, and by having lost their connection with the rhythm and flow of life's vital energy. However, humanity is its own worst enemy in this because they consent to it. They do this by allowing themselves to fall for a trick. This is a deal, in which their controllers promise to protect them from all the evils in the world (which they create), and provide for all their basic needs from cradle to grave. For this, all humanity has to do is barter away its freedom and its spirit. It's nothing less than the proverbial pact with the devil.

Now that we know all this, what do we do with it? This is a very delicate matter, and one that most people get wrong. The New Age folks totally miss the boat by believing that the best way to handle this is by pretending it's not there, or coloring it over with their rose colored glasses. This is a total misapplication of the power of positive thinking. The truth is never a bad thing, even if we don't like it. However, this information is so huge and dastardly that it invariably rocks our world, and shakes us up emotionally. The mistake most people make is falling into the trap of fear and helplessness, and getting stuck there. Invariably, this is because they lack a spiritual basis. As the age-old wisdom says, when the spirit is alive within us, there is never anything to fear. Without this, the situation is indeed hopeless.

Whether we like it or not, we are engaged in a battle, and our opponents are far more powerful, at least in the physical realm. After all, they own and control the world. Ultimately, this battle will not be won or lost on the battlefield of the physical, but rather on that of the energetic, or the spiritual. This is where we must prevail, and this is where we must derive the primary source of our power, which is also supernatural power. The only way we can persevere in this great challenge is with the higher powers of our higher consciousness and spirituality. When enough of us reconnect with this power, we will hit a critical mass of energy. At this point, things will begin to shift, and to change in ways that we cannot even imagine, like David defeating Goliath.

How do we do this? My advice is always the same, regardless of the circumstances. We must learn to live in harmony again with the Earth and with spirit. We must reassume complete responsibility for our own lives, and detach ourselves as much as possible from the mainstream dependency system and from synthetic reality. We must disentangle ourselves from the illusions that enslave us, and begin to stand on our own two feet again, but we must remember how, and we must be prepared. They rely upon us to give them their power with our consent. If enough of us withdraw our consent, and just don't play the games anymore, this hideous system will not be able to sustain itself. Its power base will be gone. I know the inevitable collapse of the old paradigm world scares the dickens out of most people, but it would be the greatest blessing imaginable. It would provide us with the opportunity to start over, and get it right this time, to fulfill our magical heritage as spiritual beings, and shepherds of the Earth." (snip) ...

Banking and Finance - Famous Statements

2011-12-20T15:10:00.000-08:00

These "Banking and Finance - Famous Statements were emailed to me and I hereby share them with readers at The UsuryFree Eye Opener. Since the first statment is about Australia, I am assuming that these statements were compliled by a usuryfree creative living in Australia. If anyone knows the author please share."

"The respective Australian governments, both state and federal, (not the people) have run up public debts over the years to near breaking point, and debiting those debts to us, the people, BUT WE, THE PEOPLE HAVE NEVER EVER BEEN CREDITED WITH THE ASSETS, THEREBY DEFRAUDING THE AUSTRALIAN PEOPLE OF OUR BIRTHRIGHT, AND DISPOSSESSING US OF OUR LEGITIMATE ASSETS, I.E., THE COMMON WEALTH OF THE LAND KNOWN AS THE COMMONWEALTH OF AUSTRALIA."

"Although most writers still confuse and underestimate the matter, banks certainly create credit, or more exactly, they create money."

(Quote from his book Oil In Troubled Waters, page 54) - Dr. Jim Cairns, one time Federal Treasurer.

"The policies of every federal government, irrespective of which party is in power, and most state governments over the last fifty (50) years have been nothing more or less than thinly veiled, incrementally introduced , warmed-up Marxism, under the appearance of, and masquerading as a constitutional monarchy."

“The Bank hath benefit of interest on all monies, which it creates out of nothing.” -The boastful statement of the co-founder (and the Financiers’ ‘Front Man’) of the (privately owned) Bank of England, William Patterson, upon its foundation in 1694.

“He who takes up usury for a loan of money acts unjustly, for he sells what does not exist. It is wrong in itself to take a price (usury) for the use of money lent. And as in the case of other offences against justice, one is bound to make restitution of his unjustly acquired money.” - Statement of St. Thomas Aquinas.

“We must go forward, cautiously, and consolidate each acquired position, because already, the inferior social stratum of society (the common people, Ed.,) is giving unceasing signs of agitation.

“Let us make use of the courts . . .

“When, through the law’s intervention, the common people shall have lost their homes, they will be more easy to control and more easy to govern, and they shall not be able to resist the strong hand of the Government acting in accordance with . . .the control of the leaders of finance."

“We must keep the people busy with political antagonisms."

“We’ll therefore speed up the question of reform (of tarrifs within) the Democratic Party; and we’ll put the spotlight on the question of protection …(for) the Republican Party."

“By dividing the electorate this way, we’ll be able to have them spend their energies at struggling amongst themselves, on questions that, for us, have no importance whatsoever." - United State Bankers magazine, 1892. As quoted in the Michael Journal, Jan-Feb., 2003

“The most hated sort of money-making and with the greatest reason, is usury, which makes a gain out of money itself, and not from the natural use of it – for money was intended merely for exchange, not for increase at interest. And this term interest, which implies the birth of money from money, is applied to the breeding of money, because the off-spring resembles the parent. Whereof of all modes of money-making, this is the most unnatural.” - Statement of Aristotle on Usury, 350 BC.

“The function of money is not to make money, but to move goods. Money is only one part of our transportation system. It moves goods from man to man. A dollar bill is like a postage stamp, it is no good unless it will move commodities between persons. If a postage stamp will not carry a letter or will not move goods, it is just the same as an engine that will not run. Someone will have to get out and fix it.” - Statement of Henry Ford.

“The modern banking system manufactures money out of nothing. The process is perhaps the most astounding piece of sleight of hand that was ever invented. Banking was conceived in iniquity and born in sin…..bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money, and with a flick of the pen, they will create enough money to buy it back again…….take this great power away from them and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear, and they ought to disappear, for then this would be a better world to live in …… but if you want to continue to be slaves of the bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, then let bankers continue to create money and control credit.” - The writings of Sir Josiah Stamp, President of the Bank of England, at the University of Texas,1920.

“Of all the discoveries and inventions by which we live and die, this totally improbable helix of credit is the most cunning, the most liable, the least comprehended, and, next to high explosives, the most dangerous. All that bankers themselves know about it is how it works from day to day. Beyond that, it is a bit from Pandora.” - Statement by Garet Garret, author of “The Bubble that Broke the World”, and regarded as “the clearest expositor of economics in the United States”:

“When banks grant credit by creating or adding to deposits subject to check . . new dollars are created. They are credit dollars and they are created by the stroke of a pen rather than by dies and the stamping machines, but their purchasing power is not less than that of the dollars coined at the government mint . . . the principal way in which dollars are created in modern economic society is by borrowing.” - Statement of Sumner H. Slichter, Professor of Business Economics at Harvard:

“We have already learned that the most important kind of money is credit. The most important kind of credit is credit created out of thin air by the banking system. Eighty per cent of the volume of business in Canada uses money that isn’t there. Banks lend it out of nowhere to people, and when it is paid back, it returns to nowhere. It can’t be seen, yet it can make the difference between full employment and mass unemployment. MOST OF THE REVENUE OF BANKS IS INTEREST ON MONEY THAT DOES NOT EXIST.” - Statement of W. Trimble

The Greatest Lie Ever Sold To Debtors By Creditors

2011-12-17T17:23:00.000-08:00

By Tom J. Kennedy

There is an ongoing and heated debate over whether we-the-people are expecting this deepening Recession to slide into a deadly Depression.

Public confidence about our orthodox economy of usury-based, debt money is in steady decline. It is time to write and talk about the falsehood of usury.

Backgrounder:
The fact of the matter is that for almost a Century (since 1913) we-the-people of Canada, the United States and elsewhere have been lied to, deceived and hoodwinked about the truth of modern money creation.

Over the past 98 years, an abundance of wealth has been stolen from debtors (individuals, families, businesses, cities, towns, municipalities, provinces, states, countries, nations, etc.) by ruthless creditors within the cabal of usury bankers.

Ongoing research reveals that while the creditors who are positioned at the top of the global banking pyramids know the truth about modern, money creation, neither the debtors nor the lower-level creditors (the common banking staff who authorize loans) have any understanding about how the design flaw of usury – a malfunctioning software tool – facilitates the ongoing theft of wealth by creditors from debtors.

Unfortunately, until the latter years of the 20th Century, this was the “greatest lie never told.” As we progress into this 21st Century, we need to network the truth about “The Greatest Lie Ever Sold To Debtors By Creditors.”

Revealing Quote:
First, let us focus on a quote from the book “War Cycles, Peace Cycles” authored by Richard Kelly Hoskins in 1985. In the Introduction it is written: “If there is only $10.00 in existence, and you lend it to someone under conditions that he repay $11.00, and if he agrees to this, he has agreed to the impossible.”

Explaining about Biblical Times, on page 2 of “War Cycles, Peace Cycles,” Richard Kelly Hoskins writes: “Since Seth could not pay his debt of 11 talents when there were only 10 talents in circulation, he must forfeit his collateral. His livestock went first, his lands next, then his children were sold into slavery as well as his wife, and then he himself became a slave. This is where most slaves come from – debt.”

During Babylonian Times tens of thousands of Babylonians who could not pay their debts were herded into captivity. In fact, the creditors – the greedy priests of Baal enslaved a large number of debtors to slaves and their ‘system of usury’ spread to the lands wherever the Babylonian armies conquered.

During these modern times, early in this 21st Century, not much has changed. Tens of thousands of desperate debtors are being herded into economic enslavement by greedy and ruthless creditors.

It’s The Usury, Stupid:
There will not be a major expansion in economic freedom in Canada or elsewhere on planet earth until we-the-people adopt the mantra: “It’s the usury, stupid.” Readers may recall that in 1992, James Carville, Bill Clinton’s campaign manager was credited with inventing the quote: “It’s the economy, stupid.” It is unlikely that James Carville had followed a self-imposed course of study titled “Usury 101.” Otherwise he would have proudly cited the quote: “It’s the usury, stupid.”

Due to the dedicated work of many competent researchers during the latter years of the 20th Century, and in the early years of this 21st Century, it is now becoming more apparent that: “It’s the usury, stupid.”

Indeed, to fully understand the nature of any modern or historic economy, one must be re-educated about the design flaw of usury and its evil and immoral malfunction in relation to historical and modern economics.

About Inflation:
Economists who follow conventional economies continue to make errors about the cause of inflation in spite of the fact that during the early 1980’s, John ‘The Engineer’ Turmel from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada proved conclusively that inflation is directly caused by the design flaw of usury.

In the book, “Grace and Mortgage” by Bishop Peter Selby, Bishop of Worcester, ISBN 0-232-52170-0, page 116, it is written: “ As Galbraith remarks, higher interest rates, it is hoped, will curb inflation. These comments of Galbraith illustrate why, although the rising of interest rates is the weapon against inflation chosen by those who profit from it, it is also clear that as a method it cannot finally work. John Turmel, a Canadian civil engineer and campaigner against usury, has in two long articles brought algebra, plumbing and poetry to bear on the task”

What Every UsuryFree Creative Is Invited To Do NOW!

Yes, proof positive has been researched, documented and revealed. The design flaw of usury controls orthodox economics so that it obscenely profits the creditors (the global banking cartel), while the common people (the debtors) endure severe, financial stress because for lack of knowledge – they keep signing impossible loan and mortgage contracts and have little or no knowledge about how modern banking really works.

The Eighth Annual UsuryFree Day & Week (November 13th to 19th, 2012) will be celebrated by active, usuryfree creatives who will keep repeating the uplifting message that usuryfree living for the whole world is now possible. Are you listening? Are you prepared to do your part to expose the Greatest Lie Ever Sold To Debtors by Creditors?

Don’t wait for the Eighth Annual UsuryFree Day & Week, tell the truth NOW and they will listen. Share printed literature, books, audio CDs, film documentary DVDs, etc. with family, friends, neighbours, working colleagues and anyone who is ready and willing to be re-educated. Plan an event NOW in your local community and start making plans for a larger event to celebrate the forthcoming, Eighth Annual UsuryFree Week in November 2012.

“Money and Banking” – Questions To Ponder

2011-12-17T16:00:00.000-08:00

"The process by which banks create money is so simple that the mind is repelled." - Professor J. K. Galbraith

"Do you know that no bank lends money deposited with it?

Do you know that when a bank lends money it CREATES IT OUT OF NOTHING - THIN AIR?

Do you know that bank loans are merely pen and ink entries in the credit columns of a bank's ledger? - And these days, are simply pixels in a computer? THEY HAVE NO OTHER EXISTENCE!

Do you know that practically all the money in the community and the country - comes into circulation as a debt to the banks?

Do you know that money loaned by a Government bank is just as much a debt to the people as if it were loaned from a private bank?

Do you know that "fixed deposits" are a plausible screen to hide the creation of credit?

Did it ever occur to you that the banks enjoy this unique facility of creating credit and putting the nation progressively into debt-bondage because they create FINANCIAL credit against the REAL credit created by the people?

Do you realize that every time a Government borrows money for a public work, the people are debited with the liability (in perpetuity), but are NEVER credited with the value of the asset?

Do you know that every repayment of a bank loan cancels the amount of the loan out of existence?

Do you know that Treasury Notes are Government I.O.U.'s - national pawn tickets for pledging the assets of the country to the private banks for the loan of OUR OWN financial credit?

Do you know that banks purchase bank sites, build premises, and acquire assets at no real cost whatever to themselves by the simple process of honoring their own cheques?

Do you realize that not one politician in a thousand, in Queensland, or Australia, or anywhere for that matter, understands this? It is not taught in universities, or anywhere. It is a well-kept secret, and has been for hundreds of years." (snip) ...

NOTE: Not sure who created these pertinent questions about “money and banking” - perhaps a usuryfree creative from Australia - but it matters not for these thought-provoking questions are timely indeed. Hopefully such questions will motivate at least one more awakening fellow-Canadian (or otherwise) to follow a self-imposed course with resources not readily available within the sacred walls of formal education.

Debtors In Denial vs Debtors Re-Educated With Truth

2011-12-15T12:58:00.000-08:00

Revolution is commonly preceded by extended periods of social and economic unrest. As we progress into this 21st Century, there is much evidence of increasing social and economic unrest as evidenced by the Occupy Wall Street movement that was birthed in mid-September 2011 and by early December 2011 most of the encampments had been shut down by the
“authorities,” though “key organizers” are still organizing gatherings and marches etc.

The original “Occupy Wall Street” movement seems to have evolved to “Occupy Main Street” or “Occupy Small Street” – to encourage awakening consumers to shop locally instead of frequenting the giant, trans-national retail corporations.

Though millions of debtors have participated in rallies and marches all over the world in the fall of 2011, only a very small percentage are fully aware that the key element that is directly and/or indirectly responsible for wars, violence, poverty, scarcity and lack is the design flaw of usury – the killer machine within our orthodox, economic system of debt-money.

The key initiators of the Occupy Wall Street movement point out that the cause of the economic misery experienced by the majority of debtors (99%) is attributed to the minority of creditors (1%) BUT they fail to target the design flaw of usury for the evil and immoral function that it imposes on debtors everywhere.

Though the Occupy Wall Street movement’s leading protestors write and talk about corporate greed, obvious injustice and grotesque inequalities, as of this date, there has not been a focus on lies, deception and deceit about modern money creation and the obvious disparity of the roles of debtors and creditors.

Instead, capitalism is wrongly centered out as the predatory, social system that is the cause of the ongoing and ever-worsening, economic oppression. True capitalism is unfettered free enterprise in action, however in this 21st Century, true capitalism has been trumped by monopoly capitalism as engineered by the global banking cartel and their ilk.

A little background research indicates that historically, all of the “isms” were carefully contrived by the New World Order elites to hoodwink the masses while advancing their ultimate goal of ushering in their New World Order of total economic slavery for debtors everywhere on planet earth.

Occupiers everywhere are invited to keep your eye on the target (usury) and do not be distracted by those who choose to argue about “isms” – for all of the “isms” are functioning as a well designed divide and conquer apparatus and each “ism” is fostered and promoted by debtors with limited knowledge and - knowingly or unknowingly with additional input from their creditors (the usurers).

I daresay that they key cause of economic oppression is the action of creditors (one percenters) exacting the function of usury on debtors (ninety-nine percenters). Debtors are not victims of capitalism, but rather debtors are victims of usurers.

The sooner debtors are re-educated about the truth of modern money creation, the sooner they will focus on the root cause of their multiple problems. Similar to the analogy of the dying oak tree whereby the people are pointing at the branches and not understanding that the problem is at the root of the tree, debtors are pointing at capitalism and not yet fully understanding that the key problem of local and global economic woes is “usury.”

It is my humble assumption that 99% of the Occupy Wall Street protestors are likely to be debtors who are financially enslaved and entirely subservient to their creditors (bankers). The Occupy Wall Street protestors are now considered to be “the most powerful individuals and forces shaping the world” since they have collectively earned the envied title as “Person of the Year” as granted by Time Magazine for 2011.

Therefore, these Occupy Wall Street protestors who double as debtors are cordially invited to embrace a self-imposed course of study in basic economic truths with a goal to become fully re-educated on the facts about modern money creation. There are countless FREE resources that can be easily accessed on the internet for any self-imposed course of study.

Occupiers everywhere are invited to pursue a self-imposed course of study and then share their newly acquired knowledge with others. Organize meetings, gatherings and show video clips and/or full length film documentaries, invite real-life, guest speakers. Take action now to focus on the design flaw of usury as the fifth column that is their (the 1%, the bankers) to economic oppression as experienced by the 99% - the debtors.

Below are some suggested starting points to learn about (a) the problems of wars, violence, poverty, scarcity and lack that are directly and/or indirectly caused by the design flaw of usury as exacted on debtors by creditors and (b) solutions as offered by usuryfree creatives that will guarantee peace, prosperity and abundance for every debtor of planet earth.

Occupiers everywhere - start your re-education now and never stop for “none of us is freed from usury, until all of us are freed from usury.”

Ready Resources for your self-imposed course of study – simply do a search at any search engine (preferably not Google) but any other search engine such as Start Page.

Why Usury is Fraud

2011-12-13T12:29:00.000-08:00

by Wayne Walton

The bank does not LOAN money that it has. The bank INVENTS the money at the closing table. The bank cannot show a ledger where it had say $1M BEFORE the loan of $100k; then $900k after the loan.

The bank INVENTS the money at the closing table when when a REAL FLESH AND BLOOD human signs the promissory note. A corporation is a piece of paper/ficticious entity and cannot create funds on its own. A living/breathing human being must BOND themselves to a piece of paper(promissory note) and THIS energizes the paper to become money. The bank was in profit after the very first payment.

AND it is IMPOSSIBLE for all borrowers to pay their mortgage regardless of the interest (usury) rate unless it is zero. More money is always owed than what exists in the system.

Example: Let's say 10 people borrow $100k each for a total of $1M in total loans at 1%. Thus the total debts are $1,010,000. How does the group of borrowers pay off $1,010,000 when ONLY $1M exists? It does not matter what the amount borrowed is, or the interest rate, or if the money is gold/silver/paper/digital.

This is why USURY is fraud, just like a Ponzi is fraud. Some can pay/get paid, but it is IMPOSSIBLE for all to get paid. Usury used to be punishable by death. Today, our entire economy is based on this fraud which even a 3rd grader can understand.

The PARASITE ENSLAVES PRODUCERS: Example on $100k house loan. The parasitical usurer makes $250k once it goes to term. The PRODUCER BUILDER who has costs for building the house: $20k land, $40k materials which yields $40k in labor profit if he builds by himself over say 2 months. Parasite: $250k by clicking a mouse. Producer: $40k for blood, sweat, and tears for 2 months alone.(impossible).

Any moral society rewards producers who are essential, over parasites.

Why not pay the bank $500 to invent the money without interest?

Fraud is theft. Usury will confiscate all wealth over time. Even if NO LOANS are made on cars, houses, credit cards; nations engage in this fraud through creation of money whether it is based on gold, silver, digital, or paper.

The bankers are duping the People with the "End the Fed" movement as it will not "end usury"; neither will the platitude of "sound money". The bankers engineered panics on the Rothschilds gold/silver money system in 1883, 1907, 1921, 1929. Finally the US was bankrupted in 1933 on a gold/silver money system where those commodities were borrowed by the US from the private banksters.

End the Fed be analogous to End OPEC; but still more private oil companies will then do the exact same thing as before in more numbers under different names "competing" for the same goals. Monopoly control over an essential commodity. If we "end borrowing paper and digital" money into creation; then borrow gold/silver into creation, we will still be ruled by the elite through usury. The elite have almost all the gold/silver as they have ALL titles to ALL property since the 1933 bankruptcy. Evidence: your deed lists the you as "tenant/renter". Even after you pay your mortgage, you still pay rent to stay on Rothschilds land.

Borrowing gold/silver money is a false solution, and has destroyed the sovereignty of every nation which ever used it. This is why Rothschilds INSISTED US Revolution war debt be paid in gold. As the former colonists had none, the Brits could "take their flag down/play possum/surrender". They knew that they would enslave the US through usury/gold. They did it just the way our banker/owners ended chattel slavery, and replaced it with debt slavery with the 14th amendment US Citizen.

How many times must we be duped until we wake up?

If we end usury we can have 8 year mortgages with the same payment as 30 year mortgages and get 22 years of our lives back from the parasitic usurers. We can have INSTANT economic recovery.

Let public money WITHOUT usury be the litmus test for every "leader", or "truth teller" you listen to.

Otherwise, YOUR "truth teller" is either ignorant, or loyal opposition. Either way, they are unfit to lead.

Please follow me until we find more TRUE PATRIOTS who speak about this simple problem to resolve. Please, understand that EVERYONE on the political theater reality show stage is loyal opposition to private bankers' usury fraud.

"End USURY" save the world. Add in the universal debt Jubilee too!

The only cost to the people is changing the color of pieces of paper(money) they use. http://www.occupyOurMoney.com

Crom Alternative Currency System

2011-12-01T09:40:00.000-08:00

Welcome to the Crom Alternative Currency System - the integral part of the web space of a non-profit social-humanitarian organization administered by its members.

Without any doubt, life is certainly the greatest of all mysteries that humanity has ever coped with. From the first day of the calendar they are using, human species is constantly running away from confrontation with the original problem for all of their torments, always inventing for problem some new names and definitions. From then until now, a myriad of pointless wars has been conducted and many innocent victims fallen. In the stage of man's journey through time called a democracy, nothing has changed in relation to the past - in the East, the same old stories - in the West, nothing new: In absence of the development of monetary culture - financial, material and information resources are still controlled by the narrow minority of influential people who extract a maximum benefit from this at the expense of all other animate and inanimate nature.

In the ambience of countless commercials and propaganda messages, vivid imagination and a lack of knowledge, where apparently only the will of the majority prevails and where everything is a question of quantity rather than quality; in society with the maneuvering space from A to Z in which in the name of consumerism dialogue is accepted only in range from A to B; spontaneously by itself has begun to emerge a desire for some different kind of freedom and happiness. The will has awoken to build the most beautiful and most attractive place in this part of space in which people proudly live and work in peace and love, produce ecologically clean energy and not destroy flora and fauna, eat healthy food and all together maintain this heritage.

Introduction To Problem: Money - Root Of All Evil

Money is a collective mental agreement. Our money has no precise definition and is blurred by the complicated terminology.

It is really a strange situation in which community has developed the idea, disposed of labor and material, but without the intermediation of the bank, the whole project is just a dead letter on paper. It is no longer a secret that bankers create money out of nothing. Without a bricklayer, a house cannot be built - if there is space, if there are builders and there is a material, then why the problem is a lack of a simple piece of paper signed by the governor or director of the bank? Is it not just incredible that banks, which generally produce nothing except digits on paper or on computer screen, are more powerful and the wealthiest institutions of states whose hundreds of millions of voters spend most of their lives locked in some suffocating factory production department?

How is possible that now when each worker produces more than ever in world history, both parents work fulltime but due to the growing difference between wages and prices, do not earn enough money for a dignified life? The fact is that the more we progress, the more isolated from each other we become. Why are we increasingly deprived of our rights, why do we sacrifice ourselves more and more, and why do we have less and less free time? Shouldn’t the opposite be happening as we continue to become more and more productively efficient? Why are we less happy than ever before? Something must be wrong!

All our current problems are directly linked to the monetary system in use. Due to the structure of the monetary system, money has the greatest influence on the people's behavior - money determines our relationship with ourselves, other people, and nature that surrounds us. The money system affects our everyday lives more than the executive, judicial, and legislative decisions altogether. The fundamental source of power lies in the creation of money, not laws.

There are only two possible choices in front of the money issuer: to serve or to be served. In the current global financial system, money is not created by communities but by the banks. Banks create money and lend it with interest to governments and communities in the same way they approve credit cards to the people. Under these conditions, the more we work and produce, the more we fall in debt. The mystery that inevitably imposes itself on a planetary level is: Why do We The People Of The World, through a concept in which money without any material basis is issued out of nothing, accept indebtedness to the private institution for the amount of all currency in circulation, without receiving anything in return?

The development of human civilization through the gradual dispossession of the population's monetary sovereignty, at the end, has led every aspect of modern society into the absolute dependence on the money issued as the interest based debt; and as a result produced an invalid society limited by countless abnormal bureaucratic obstacles and constraints.

Introduction To Solution: Money - Source Of All Good

A medium of exchange is an intermediary item used as a measure of the value of goods and services on the market. Even though the money is everything that the two sides can agree to use as a medium of exchange, for some secret reason, mankind is convinced that money is only what the government or central bank specifies and controls through the laws in a monopoly regime.

Money supply and collective wealth - each of us has the right to use whatever kind of money he wants.

The only sustainable economic system is one which is in compliance with the resource limits, or in other words, any quantity of money in circulation that is not compatible with the quantity of all goods, products and services within that circle - is a spark of the speculation and currency instability conflagration."

What Have The Central Banks Of The World Done Now?

2011-11-30T21:50:00.000-08:00

"The central banks of the world are acting as if it is 2008 all over again. Desperate times call for desperate measures, and right now the central bankers are pulling out all the stops. The Federal Reserve, the European Central Bank, the Bank of England, the Bank of Canada, the Bank of Japan and the Swiss National Bank have announced a coordinated plan to provide liquidity support to the global financial system.

According to the plan, the Federal Reserve is going to substantially reduce the interest rate that it charges the European Central Bank to borrow dollars. In turn, that will enable the ECB to lend dollars to European banks at a much cheaper rate. The hope is that this will alleviate the credit crunch which has gripped the European financial system by the throat. So where is the Federal Reserve going to get all of these dollars that it will be loaning out at very low interest rates?

You guessed it - the Fed is just going to create them out of thin air. Our currency is being debased so that Europe can be helped out. Unfortunately, the impact of this move will be mostly "psychological" because it really does nothing to address the fundamental problems that Europe is facing. It is up to Europe to solve those problems, and so far Europe has shown no signs of being able to do that.

The major central banks of the world say that they want to "enhance their capacity to provide liquidity support to the global financial system." But essentially what is happening is that the Federal Reserve is going to be zapping large amounts of dollars into existence and loaning them out to the ECB very, very cheaply. Think of it as a type of "quantitative easing" on a global scale.

The decision to do this was reportedly made by the Federal Reserve on Monday morning. For the moment, this move seems to have stabilized the European financial system. It is quite unlikely that any major European banks will fail this weekend now.

But as mentioned above, this move does nothing to solve the very serious financial problems that Europe is facing. This intervention by the central banks is merely just a speed bump on the road to financial oblivion." (snip) ...

Introducing Favabank - A New UK Social Bartering Website

2011-11-30T21:36:00.000-08:00

FAVABANK Announces Pre-Launch Alpha Version of New UK Social Bartering Website.

"Favabank is a free social bartering website encouraging users to share their time, skills, resources, spaces, and everyday items with one another, using a virtual currency. This website provides a place for neighbours in the UK to get to know one another better through sharing favours and reducing waste by passing on everyday items.

Favabank.co.uk is a free to use neighbourhood portal for bartering favours and everyday items amongst community members. Favabank offers a mutual credit currency, called a 'Fava', which accounts for all transactions. Users may crowdsource favours, in the form of time, skills or resources, by posting geographically searchable wanted & offered ads. The website matches those with resources, skills or time available to those with a compatible need. Favabank falls into the growing trend known as 'Collaborative Consumption' which describes the use of technology to facilitate peer-to-peer sharing on an unprecedented scale.

Favabank.co.uk allows users to build their bartering reputations through the transparency of historical user transactions and its feedback system. Users may get to know one another through a social area, private messaging, and viewing suggestions of other users in their area who they may wish to connect with. Users are invited to think about the skills or resource they have and how they could share them with others in their neighbourhoods.

This social bartering website is ideal for people who want to contribute more to their community by discovering needs they may be able to fulfil. By connecting with their neighbours on Favabank, people can begin to feel more integrated with their communities, discovering the names of other people living on their street. It will be easier for them to ask for a neighbourly favour if ever they should need to.

With economies in decline, ordinary people being hit by job losses and government austerity measures, and concerns over the very survival of some of the world's currencies, we can build our own currencies for small local transactions between ordinary people. Each unit of the 'Fava' currency is created the moment that a trade occurs, showing as a debit / credit on the accounts of those involved in the trade. It is a peer-to-peer currency derived from the act of helping a fellow community member and the size of the Favabank economy will come to reflect the size of neighbourhood good will and generosity.

The website has been alpha tested in the UK during 2011, receiving a warm response from those have have used it. For those wanting to unleash the potential lying dormant and undiscovered in their own street they can now start connecting with their neighbours at http://www.favabank.co.uk

Iceland Rebuffs The Banksters

2011-11-30T21:14:00.000-08:00

By Joseph P. Farrell

"Remember back when all this financial “crisis” started? It was Iceland that first went belly up. Now, recently, of course, we’ve been treated to endless news about Greece,Italy, and to a lesser extent, Spain and Portugal. Greece and Italy are of particular interest, because of course, the banksters have seen to it that “technocrats” – a nice fancy term for money managers, carpetbaggers, and banksters – will “rescue” Greece and Italy from the bumbling hands of their politicians and democratic processes, and restore “order” to their fiscal houses. Hip hip hurray for the banksters, that wise and beneficent class of well-intentioned businessmen out to create a world of sustainable growth and peace.

Except….what happened to Iceland?

Well, the IMF, the big British and Dutch banks, tried to do in Iceland what they’re attempting to do in Greece and Italy, namely, introduce “austerity” and make each Icelandic citizen pay increased taxes to bail out the banks. Iceland, however, didn’t play ball quite the way the City of London and Zurich and Basel wanted them to play. Instead, they put the whole matter up to a popular referendum of their citizenry – note that didn’t happen here in the supposedly “free” USA whose compliant bought-and-paid-for Congress bailed out American banks – and of course, as to be expected, the tiny nation’s citizenry of about 325,000 people overwhelmingly told their bankster class to go to hell, criminalized their behavior, and just for good measure, began to arrest some of them…. and to put out Interpol arrest warrants for the rest that fled the country.

Then, just for good measure, the Icelanders decided it was time for a new constitution, which was being written not by a committee of politicians behind closed doors, but by the entire nation’s citizenry online, on the Internet. Doubtless we haven’t heard about that too, because we can well imagine it has a few things to say about private international central banks too. Don’t believe me?

Read about it at this website: Why Iceland Should Be in the News, But Is Not

Now, to put all this in perspective, it would be as if the Occupy Movement had suddenly grown a pair, and a brain to match, grew to national majority proportions, decided to pressure the politicians to such an extent that they had to round up the shareholders of the “too big to fail banks,” brokerage houses, and coordinate a series of Marine raids on the Federal Reserve banks before the latter’s shredders could destroy the incriminating evidence, and audit the whole mess, and throw the various major shareholders of same in the pokey for criminality. No such luck here, but hats off to Iceland for having the moxie to do so." (snip) ...

Currency in the Community

2011-11-30T19:58:00.000-08:00

BY MATT PRESCOTT
November 2011

"A growing group of communities are attempting to break away from the constraints of their official currency. The results include the charming Lewes, Totnes, Brixton and Tooting pounds, to name but a few British ones, and the noteworthy ‘BerkShares’ from the Berkshire area of Massachusetts, which boasts over 2.7 million BerkShares in circulation. This is no new experiment – it has its origins reaching back to the earliest forms of exchange – and it was re-imagined early in the 20th Century by the Swiss Wirtschaftsring to overcome currency shortages in the 1930s. Like many ideas co-opted by the sustainability community, it combines something old with something new.

Whatever the barriers, community currencies offer a way to bring visibility to the environmentally and socially damaging effects of our consumer culture. Hotbeds for local creativity, they are sometimes geographical, but at other times based on a disparate community of shared interest. They could play a role in articulating a more sustainable and progressive way out of the current financial malaise. Certainly for an environmentalist wondering how society can attempt to sidestep an upsurge in consumerism the minute the recession comes to an end, it’s an idea worthy of closer examination.

A community currency, as the name implies, operates within a defined community, ordinarily a town. Let’s invent the Robertsbridge franc. Normally used in parallel to the official currency, a hairdresser, for instance, might accept both Robertsbridge francs and British pounds. He or she might then be able to buy more vegetables from another participating trader with those Robertsbridge francs than with the equivalent ordinary pounds otherwise earned from the same haircut. Whatever happens, the Robertsbridge francs don’t leave Robertsbridge.

These transactions encourage an awareness of the provenance of goods, provide support for local traders and micro-enterprise, can lead to greater local employment and even counter a national economic downturn – very much ‘power to the people’. However, from the perspective of the environmentalist, they do something more profound – they don’t treat the environment as an infinite source of resources to be commoditised and sold, because the actors in the economy – local people – identify with the resources available locally and their natural limits.

It’s not about a green financial revolution. After all, community currencies have their limitations – they are unable to finance investments for instance – so they need to be seen as parallel, not alternative. However, they may offer real help in articulating a subtle shift towards a more sustainable economy. They exhibit few of the attributes of conventional currencies which cause concern to many environmentalists – fewer trade barriers, expanding markets and the commoditisation of everything conceivable, from the naming of stars to the pricing a tonne of carbon offset. Parallel and community currencies stimulate a complete reconsideration of value. Not only could they better calibrate the value of a sandwich lunch as compared to a haircut, but perhaps even determine the cost to the community of air pollution from vehicles passing through, maybe even tax it.

Back in the world of the familiar, retailer loyalty programmes – a form of parallel currency – have traditionally been employed to stimulate spending in the official currency. In these may lie a way forward. They have been recast by the more environmentally and socially conscious into projects like Wedgecard, a loyalty card for local shops, and as green incentive points, such as ‘Green Rewards’ points.

In an enlightened move to encourage greener behaviour through rewards linked to greener retail and support for local charities, Green Rewards have recently implemented a programme in the London Borough of Bexley to improve municipal recycling rates. Success is a win-win – residents receive ‘green rewards’ for positive behaviour change and the local authority saves money on the cost of landfill, which finances the rewards. Easily translated into other positive environmental behaviour changes, such as saving energy, schemes like this can deliver incremental, achievable environmental benefits, are scalable, affordable and involve no re-engineering of the financial system.

There are many more angles to explore, including both the Local Exchange Trading System, an informal local trading scheme first set up in British Columbia in the 1980s and now operating in over a thousand small communities around the world, time banks, and the energy-specific personal carbon trading schemes. Of these, there are several proposed variations, each designed to reduce energy use by individuals or householders to within centrally agreed national or global limits using a tradable carbon allowance.

All of these connected ideas offer opportunities for organisations of any kind to stimulate participation and innovation around shared goals. Corporates can, for instance, associate carbon budgets with individual teams or departments in the form of a number of tradable carbon units. Acting as a carbon spendthrift can not only be used as one important performance metric, but associated with a bonus or other benefit, while excessive spend could impact on next year’s budget or trigger a performance review. Beyond carbon, other environmental costs could be internally commoditised and used to focus minds on specific areas of sustainability performance.

So is this a thought experiment for middle class greens or the basis for a genuine shift in the social norms and behaviours of individuals, consumers and community or organisations members, irrespective of their underlying motivations and attitudes? Unlike a national or international ‘carbon price’, community currencies operate at the grassroots level, can be easily adopted by online communities, from workforces to charity members to campaign groups, and any quantitative easing is a sign of success."

Out of the parks, into our lives: Move beyond Occupy

2011-11-25T12:45:00.000-08:00

By Laura Kaminker

Shortly after the Occupy Movement began to make headlines, my friend and comrade Dr. J wrote this on his blog your heart's on the left:

Is occupation a tactic or a principle? Should the focus be on the internal procedures of those actively occupying, or outreach to broader communities and struggles? How do we build a movement of the 99%?

. . . As the temperature drops, it will become more unsustainable to maintain outdoor occupations, and prioritizing this over outreach beyond the occupation will cut the movement off from broader struggles. . . . As we've seen from Tahrir to Wisconsin, occupations are simply one tactic in a broader movement for change. The main strategy needs to be the active participation of masses of people -- in the streets, campuses, and workplaces.

Dr. J. was ahead of the curve. Right now, as the Occupy Movement becomes immersed in struggles with city governments and abusive police, there is the risk of the act of occupation being fetishized, an end in itself, rather than a symbolic, strategic and tactical expression of a larger movement.

I'm not suggesting -- not for a moment -- that Occupy Wall Street walk away from The People's Library like nothing happened. Or that the students at UCal Davis -- when their eyes and lungs heal -- shrug their shoulders and quietly return to class. Or that Rob Ford win without a fight. I am concerned, however, that the central message of economic injustice -- and everything that stems from it -- is at risk of being lost amid battles for the right to protest in public spaces.

The impetus for this movement was not the right to sleep in parks. The rights of assembly, expression and protest are of paramount importance, and must be constantly defended. But we must not lose perspective. The message is "We are the 99%". And most of the 99 per cent can't sleep in the park.

For the movement to continue, it needs to both broaden and deepen. Broaden to the thousands upon thousands of people who cannot join an occupation, but who support the same ideals and values, who believe people and our needs are more important than profit. And deepen, with a historical perspective on other anti-capitalist struggles, and building a more just society. To do this, the movement must build and strengthen connections with existing movements that are fighting for the same thing.

In my many years as an activist, I can't count how many times I've been buttonholed by a stranger here to tell me The Answer. "Do you know what you guys have to do?" is the usual opening line. This person doesn't come to meetings, doesn't understand the complexities of the situation, makes no effort to get involved. He sits on the sidelines and criticizes.

I never want to be one of those people. Only the Occupy Movement -- the people creating it, day-to-day - can chart the movement's course. I fully respect that.

I write this only as a hope. I have thrilled to see this movement -- to see, at long last, people in North America organize around economic justice. And I fear that the broader struggle may be lost in the specific battles over sleeping in parks.

Well, not quite. Even if the Occupy Movement as presently conceived were to fizzle out tomorrow, it would still have accomplished so much.

It focused the national and international conversation on the injustices of capitalism. Wow! That's something I thought I'd never see.

People organized themselves and created a grassroots, democratic, decentralized and leaderless culture. People acted collectively, many for the first time.

Others saw their own values reflected in the protests and realized that they, too, could participate. They got a glimpse of their own potential to create change.

These gains are huge. They are nothing short of the discovery of an alternative model for society. So whatever happens next, I applaud the Occupiers with all my heart.

In addition, movements ebb and flow. Occupy Wall Street (and everywhere else) was related to the Arab Spring, and to the labour uprising in Wisconsin, and to countless smaller and less visible actions and protests taking place all the time. So if Occupy disappears tomorrow, that doesn't mean it has disappeared forever.

But it's time to talk about the future. How do we include everyone who supports this movement but could not physically occupy? How can Occupy link up with established and existing revolutionary movements?

How can we truly Occupy Everywhere?" (snip) ...

Banks Are Evil, We're All Angry And Facing Bankruptcy, Let's Switch To Alternative Currency

2011-11-25T11:38:00.000-08:00

"Money has been privatized by stealth, the greatest privatization in history has gone unnoticed, it's time to take from the banks the power to produce money", Ben Dyson writes in his article published a few days ago by the Guardian. "You know, my son, it's really unbelievable how stupid one can be when his job depends on how stupid he can become", mama said to Forest Gump who browsed through the pages of the largest national daily newspaper - ahead of upcoming parliamentary elections - filled with invitations and promises in which desperate workers and farmers have invested all their hopes. "Well, mom", Forest replied, "if banks are evil, and if we're all angry and facing bankruptcy, then let's switch to alternative currency"!

Are we simply just a lazy people who spend and consume beyond our purchasing capabilities and are now paying for our own negligence, or there is something else at work here that surpasses humankind's perception, provoking our intelligence and awareness? Is there anyone out there who still doesn't know that our global monetary system is a cause of enormous social stress we face today? For many centuries, there has been widespread infinite unpayable debt use. In the same way that common citizens must take out a third, fourth, fifth, and so on mortgage to repay their credit card obligations; powerful international banks have pushed world governments into a debt slavery trap from which there is no escape.

In these days when crucial moves for entire humanity are being pulled, extraordinary comedies of the absurd are taking place between those who know whose interest they continue to serve, and those who are doomed to suffer most. In short, officially, there is no solution on the horizon other than borrowing new money - all prescribed measures to deal with the current financial crisis incur more new debt to pay interest rates on old debt.

With utmost secrecy, in the period between December 2007 and July 2010, the FED distributed $US 16.1 trillion in emergency loans to financial entities all over the world. Almost half of this, a total of $US 7.75 trillion was given to four US banks: Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch, and the Bank of America. In July 2010, total US stock market capitalization was $US 15 trillion - the Federal Reserve injected about half of that. In a situation where politicians around the world are heavily trying to save the bankrupt banks and their global financial derivatives empire, almost all responsible for the social life are working to deceive the public by reciting text of the surreal comedy.

Everything is always predetermined in advance, free market does not exist and democracy is also just a propagandized image of a reality that exists only in our mentally programmed collective mind. The industry of terror and fear only serves as an excuse for subjugation of the popular masses. George Carlin, one of the most brilliant comedians of the twentieth century, once said: "You don't have choices, you have owners - that's the real reason why education sucks and why it will never ever ever be fixed".
We have stepped into the most important adventure in all of human history, in which money language is the most influential as well as the most widely used medium for formalization of the individual and collective capacities. If we fail to change the money, we will fail to escape death from cancer that devours us and this beautiful planet. Without self-reflection, understanding, new ideas, new kind of currencies and sustainable money philosophies; we truly can’t solve any of our problems.

So, how do we move towards a desired rapid economic, political, social and cultural transformation; or in other words, toward human, citizen and monetary sovereignty?

Time is the major value that life has to offer, and money is the perfect instrument to usurp from the people their time to live and evolve. Time is a way to increase the debt based production - often purposeless - and dominate the masses. Lack of time is what keeps us on this incredibly absurd route to cataclysm.

Learning the power of currencies enables us to dominate the power of the time.

People and business can choose to use a much better option than bank money, they are free to accept alternative currencies and exchange their products and services in a new way that is not damaging but rather good for all society.

Free Planet Currency is a simple and transparent alternative currency concept in which - regardless of where they live - people are enabled to barter or trade by paying in something what essentially is a sustainable substitute for imposed legal tender money.

You are kindly invited to explore if this kind of approach of building confidence between groups and individuals, companies and institutions through the freshly renovated payment infrastructure integrated within the specifically designed network for this purpose - makes sense to you in our "nothing can be changed" lives."

Seventh Annual UsuryFree Week - A Review

2011-11-25T10:41:00.000-08:00

It was a whirlwind, seven days for this Seventh Annual UsuryFree Week from November 13th to 19th, 2011. A team of professionals from Grasshopper Media followed usuryfree creatives to various events and made some good video clips that will be shared with the world in the not-too-distant future. Watch for Grasshopper Media to release video clips at YouTube and at other internet sites. Readers are invited to view: "UsuryFree Week 7th Annual Highlights"

For the pre-launch of this Seventh Annual UsuryFree Week, usuryfree creatives gathered in Kitchener, Ontario on Saturday, November 12th, for a FREE, Public Forum titled: “Towards A Peaceful Economy - Solutions For The 99%.” Movie excerpts were shown, followed by discussions and dialogue and working groups.

The problems associated with the design flaw of usury were addressed in follow-up presentations and Winged Lion Awards were presented. The keynote, guest speaker was George Crowell who delivered an address titled: “Turning Our Monetary System Into A Creative Force.”

On Sunday, November 13th (UsuryFree Day), usuryfree creatives were invited to Conspiracy Culture in Toronto, Ontario for the official launch of the Seventh Annual UsuryFree Week. Two guest speakers shared the floor. Peter Jon Simpson from Atwater, Minnesota and John “King of the Paupers” Turmel from Brantford, Ontario entertained and informed usuryfree creatives on issues relating to (a) our failing and faltering, orthodox, economic system of usury-based, debt money and (b) solution-oriented ideas and concepts that can be implemented immediately to save ourselves from total, economic enslavement as planned by the global, usury bankers.

Of course, the usuryfree community currency movement was lauded for its power and potential for we-the-people to shift the way we spend our money by shopping with local and home-based businesses where trades and exchanges can be negotiated using a usuryfree community currency as a complement with our diminishing amounts of federal cash. The concept of "Shop Locally" was promoted and consumers were encouraged to change the way they spend their money.

The usuryfree community currency movement is now recognized for its working models that are currently functioning in countries all over the world. It was suggested that the word “dollar” be avoided when labelling or identifying any usuryfree community currency and the word “wampum” was offered as an optimal label for any newly launched usuryfree community currencies.

The concept of a usuryfree time currency was explained as the potential, universal trading unit, since one hour of time is valued at 60 minutes on every continent on planet earth.

John Turmel, leader of the Pauper Party of Ontario explained how usuryfree creatives could take advantage of the tax credit program available to duly registered political parties in the province of Ontario. Since the Pauper Party of Ontario is fully supportive of the usuryfree community currency movement, John invited usuryfree creatives to double as volunteers for the Pauper Party of Ontario and thereby be eligible to collect and submit any receipts for expenses incurred for promotion of the usuryfree community currency movement as one plank of the platform advocated by the Pauper Party of Ontario.

On Monday afternoon, November 14th, a group of usuryfree creatives met at Robert Shackleton’s enterprise called “Orthodics Plus” in Brantford, Ontario. Robert Shackleton explained and demonstrated the concept of priority balancing (muscle balancing) and how it reactivates seven dysfunctions that virtually always result from foot distortion. It is the goal of usuryfree creatives to promote this breakthrough approach to achieving and maintaining optimal health and wellness so that they will prevent pain and performance problems when they are travelling and networking the truth about the problems associated with modern money creation and the solutions that will help usher in new age of usuryfree living for everyone on this planet.

On Monday evening, November 14th, usuryfree creatives were invited to attend Sydney White’s lecture at the Free University of Toronto, about “Understanding the First, Second, and Third World Wars” as part of her ongoing series titled “Studies In Propaganda.” Sydney focused on the insanity of war and how the global banking cartel profit from all wars by craftily funding both sides - but offering just a little more funds to whomever they choose to be the victors.

On Tuesday, November 15th, usuryfree creatives gathered in Hamilton, Ontario for discussions and dialogue on various topics - all of which are directly and/or indirectly related to the evil and immoral function of usury as the killer machine within our orthodox, economic system of usury-based, debt money. Kudos to Frankie Gotz and his mother for hosting a community dinner for usuryfree creatives in the Hamilton area who were celebrating the Seventh Annual UsuryFree Week. Frankie earned himself a Winged Lion Award for the video clip that he made to promote the Seventh Annual UsuryFree Week titled: "Time Currency Explained by Tom J. Kennedy."

On Wednesday, November 16th, usuryfree creatives gathered in Niagara Falls, Ontario for a meeting about health and wellness matters during the day, and yet another meeting in Port Colborne, Ontario in the evening. In Niagara Falls, Bruce McBurney gave a presentation about alternative health and wellness therapies eg. colloidal silver, colloidal gold, vibration and frequency healing etc.

Bruce McBurney doubles as a mechanic and he explained how usuryfree creatives could be travelling and getting 100 miles per gallon with their vehicles - except that the major oil corporations have succeeded in burying the technology of various inventors over the past century.

In the evening, at Port Colborne, usuryfree creatives learned lots about organic food growing and permaculture from John Miller. And usuryfree creatives were introduced to Cari-Lee Miller, host of Lifting-the-Veil - Free Think Radio. John and Cari-Lee were gracious hosts for yet another community dinner for usuryfree creatives. Many thanks for their hospitality.

On Thursday, November 17th, thanks to Jack DebtFree Elliott, a group of usuryfree creatives from London, Ontario were invited to the Holiday Inn Express for repeat presentations from John Turmel and Peter Jon Simpson.

On Friday, November 18th, the Family Life Foundation - a co-sponsor of various events for the Seventh Annual UsuryFree Week hosted a dinner for usuryfree creatives and offered overnight accommodations in exchange for tokens of usuryfree community currency. The Family Life Foundation - a duly registered charitable organization, founded by Rev. Lindsay King in 1974, has been co-sponsoring events with the UsuryFree Network since the very first UsuryFree Week in 2005.

On Saturday, November 19th, a number of usuryfree creatives decided to visit “Occupy Toronto” to meet and talk with various tent-and-yurt people who were occupying St. James Park in downtown Toronto, Ontario.

Indeed, it is evident that occupy protestors are somewhat aware of the ever-increasing economic disparity between debtors and creditors (bankers), but too many are not yet aware of the solutions as offered by the usuryfree community currency movement. The good news is that the tent-and-yurt people with whom the usuryfree creatives engaged in conversation at “Occupy Toronto” were open-minded and welcomed the information that was shared about how the usuryfree community currency movement is mutually beneficial for all who choose to participate.

Though the Seventh Annual UsuryFree Week ended on November 19th, there was yet another important meeting scheduled to be hosted by the Kingston Chapter of Comer on Sunday, November 20th and usuryfree creatives were invited to attend. At the Comer meeting in Kingston, Ontario, William Khrem was honoured as he celebrated his 98th birthday. It was William Khrem who founded Comer in the mid-1980’s.

The Kingston Chapter of Comer hosts a monthly meeting at 2:00 PM on the 3rd Sunday of each month and usuryfree creatives or otherwise are invited to attend. After the Comer meeting in Kingston, some usuryfree creatives ventured to Confederation Park in downtown Kingston where the “Occupy Kingston” protestors had pitched their tents. It was a pleasure once again to converse with some intelligent youth about the usuryfree community currency movement.

During the Seventh Annual UsuryFree Week, numerous Winged Lion Awards were bestowed on individuals and/or groups for their ongoing efforts to help usher in a new age of usuryfree living for everyone on planet earth.

As the Seventh Annual UsuryFree Week ends, we as active, usuryfree creatives salute the millions from all over the world who have participated in rallies and marches initiated by the “Occupy Wall Street” movement. While there is much debate about who initiated the “Occupy Wall Street” movement and why - there is much evidence that it has struck a nerve within the common people all over the world.

For the most part, the “Occupy” protestors have been peaceful and they deserve to be treated with respect and dignity as they seek to express their divergent opinions in a safe and respectful environment. The overwhelming response from awakening people everywhere, indicates they are seeking a message of justice and equality for everyone on this planet.

We - the usuryfree creatives will continue to share our message about the possibility of everyone experiencing the reality of usuryfree living and we encourage “Occupiers” everywhere to launch their economic lifeboats - a usuryfree community currency - in their respective, local communities as the last, best hope to free ourselves from the ultimate, economic slavery that the New World Order advocates (usury bankers) are planning for our future generations.

Let’s start planning events NOW for the Eighth Annual UsuryFree Week from November 13th to 19th, 2011. Forward details of your plans to: The UsuryFree Network, P. O.Box 9333, Ottawa, Ontario, K1G 3V1 Email: usuryfree@gmail.com

Will "Occupy" End Up Doing The Bidding Of The Global Elites?

2011-11-17T08:43:00.000-08:00

By Patrick Henningsen

"Slobodan Miloševic's downfall was in part down to a 'regime change' manual from a Boston thinktank.

A 21st-century grassroots movement faces many pitfalls. This was as true back in 1968as it is today. It could be infiltrated by law enforcement and intelligence agencies, or co-opted by a major party. As the state continues to creep further into our lives, activists can expect that it will use all its resources – not just the violent reaction seen in New York overnight, but also its agents, informants and surveillance packages – in its effort to monitor both sides of any serious social debate.

Even bleaker, however, is the possibility that the movement was actually planned and launched by the very establishment activists thought they were waging a battle against in the first place. The larger the movement, the more interested a major party becomes in absorbing it into either the left or the right side of the current two-party paradigm.

The sudden emergence of America's Tea Party movement in 2007 is a good example. Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul, its inventor, used it as a springboard to highlight libertarian and constitutional issues during his 2008 campaign. Soon after, it was co-opted by key political and media influencers from the US right wing, associating itself less with the libertarian manifesto, and more with emerging figures within the Republican establishment. Now it is has morphed into nothing more than a block of voters whom the Republican party can rely to strike a deal with during an election cycle.

Arguably, the Occupy Wall Street movement has already drifted into the shadow of the Democratic party – with a number of Democratic establishment figures from the top down endorsing it. The Democrats' own media fundraising and media machine, Move On, has visibly adopted the cause. Like the Tea Party before it, the Occupy block would swing a close election during a national two-party race, functioning as a pressure-release valve for any issue too radical for the traditional platform.

Alongside this is the threat of being infiltrated. Scores of declassified documents, along with accounts from veteran activists, will reveal many stories of members who were actually undercover police, FBI or M15. In the worst cases of infiltration, undercover agents have acted as provocateurs. Such incidents normally serve to radicalise a movement, thus demonising it in the eyes of society and effectively lessening its wider political appeal.

Although the global Occupy movement has branched out in an open-source way, many of its participants and spectators might be completely unaware of who actually launched it. Upon investigation, what one finds is a daisy chain of non-profit foundations, all tied together by hundreds of millions per year in operational funding. The original call for Occupy Wall Street came from non-profit international media foundation Adbusters.

Like many non-profits, Adbusters receives its funding and operating capital from other behind-the-scenes organisations. According to research conducted by watchdog Activistcash, Adbusters takes a significant portion of its money from the Tides Foundation, an organisation partnered with one of Wall Street billionaire oligarch George Soros's foundations, the Open Society Institute.

Although mostly hidden from the public eye, all major foundations and professional thinktanks undertake research and host training seminars, which are used to influence certain public and foreign policies, and thus, must have a political agenda. Theirs is the venue of choice for activities that cannot officially be conducted on the government clock.

Freedom House is another of Soros's Open Society partners. It supports the Centre for Applied Nonviolent Action and Strategies (Canvas), an organisation started by Serbians Ivan Marovic and Srdja Popovic. After playing a pivotal role in the CIA-backed deposing of Serbia's Slobodan Milosevic, the western media hailed Marovic as a democratic genius, but it came out later that his programme came out of an elite Boston thinktank's "regime change" manual, From Dictatorship to Democracy, written by Harvard professor Gene Sharp.

Sharp's book is a bible of the colour revolutions – a "regime change for dummies". His Albert Einstein Institution has received funds from the National Endowment for Democracy and the Open Society Foundations, and his work serves as a template for western-backed opposition leaders in soft coups all around the world.

There are also reports of Canvas activity during the early days of Occupy Wall Street, including a video of Marovic himself addressing the general assembly. Currently, Canvas are touting their recent role in working with Egyptian and Tunisian protesters from as early as 2009, teaching skills that helped bring down their presidents and spark regional revolt.

When the dust settles and it's all said and done, millions of Occupy participants may very well be given a sober lesson under the heading of "controlled opposition". In the end, the Occupy movement could easily end up doing the bidding of the very elite globalist powers that they were demonstrating against to begin with. To avoid such an outcome, it's important for a movement to have a good knowledge of history and the levers of power in the 21st century." (snip) ...
