Everybody - you, me and the Congress - are intensely focused on money issues today. Lower the national debt ... raise the debt ceiling ... subsidize him ... no, subsidize them ... hey, I want some!
Unfortunately, our focus is the result of an old, well executed diversionary plan designed to turn our attention away from the real underlying problem.
"We must go forward cautiously and consolidate each acquired position, because already the inferior social stratum of society ( that's you and me, guys) 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 ( the bankers)." "We must keep the people busy with political antagonisms. Well therefore speed up the question of ( issue A within ) the Democratic party and we'll put the spotlight on the question of ( issue B within) the Republican party. By dividing the electorate in this way, we'll be able to have them spend their energies at struggling amongst on questions that, for us, have no importance whatsoever."
( United States Bankers Magazine, 1892)
The underlying problem from which the bankers wish to divert our focus is our current monitary policy: all money is created out of debt. We now must borrow money into existance ... and of course, pay the vig. And the vig is eating us alive. The solution had been successfully implemented 3 or 4 times throughout our history, but due to bribary and coversion, the banks were able to reestablish their control by pushing through adoption of this debt-money system.
