The sad fact is bankers have achieved a hostile takeover of our government. They have always run the Congress but now, it's right out in the open for all to see. Wall Street insiders are everywhere. Our last two heads of the U.S. Treasury have been the former head of Goldman Sachs and the New York Fed for crying out loud! Because Wall Street has so much control of our government at this point I'll have to agree with Ron Paul when he said to Judge Anthony Napolitano that not much is likely to come out of the hearings scheduled to investigate these emails. That is why we must make sure everyone we know is aware of this story and keep pushing for an audit of the Federal Reserve. We have to keep the awareness of this alive and keep pressing the issue in every way that we can. The people that control the money, control just about everything, especially our government. They own all the major industries and the media empires. If we do not take control of our money away from these robber barons we will not be able to stop what's happening.

Ah! . . . the dream. The American Dream. Sadly it's much more of a fixture in the dream world than the real world and it's getting more so every day.

The original American Dream was a simple dream, a dream for a life in the middle class. It offered the possibility to rise to any height if you worked hard enough but mostly it was a vision of a life where you could have a nice home, enough money to raise a family and a life of leisure in your waning years. I'm sure most of you have noticed the ruling class has had enough of that so they are now wiping out the middle class and the American Dream right before our eyes.

One of the prized goals of the American Dream is owning your own home and your own property. Our nation gave birth to the largest middle class in the history of the world and as a result we became the most powerful nation on the planet. Unfortunately the ruling class has a problem with a large middle class. A large strong middle class has power and this is the exclusive domain of the ruling class. So, the ruling class had to do something about it. One thing they did is distort the meaning of the American dream.

The American Dream has become what the ruling class dreams for us. And their dream for us stinks! It has become the description of how the ruling class sees life and their relationship to everyone else. The American dream has become one where you step on everyone and everything you have to in order to rise to the top of the heap. It's time to remind everyone that this is not the real American dream. The real American dream is a dream of a good life for everyone, a decent job and the ability to live our lives free of other people telling us what we can and can't do. Most of us have no need or desire to "have it all." We just want enough to live a comfortable, simple life.

Freedom Requires Courage

We've all heard it a million times. America is the "Land of the free and home of the brave."
Is it? Is it really?

I've had people write to me and tell me they agree with this campaign to Kick Them All Out but they are afraid to sign on, make themselves known for fear of ending up on some list. I had a good friend tell me the same thing one day while talking on the phone. He confessed that he was afraid our conversation was being listened to by the government and that he may end up on some list. He wasn't shaking in his boots scared. It was more of a "Big Brother is watching" sense in the back of his mind but it was there nonetheless. It was a definite concern that should never have been in his mind in the first place. This is supposed to be a free country, isn't it?

When the idea for The Kick Them All Out Project first popped into my noggin I'll confess one of the first things that occurred to me was "Oh my God. If I'm successful with this they will kill me." Then I realized just how bad our nation must have become when this is one of the first things that occurred to me. This was almost four years ago. The reality is far more real today and much more out in the open.

Why is it that our little blue planet, floating in the vastness of space, is constantly in the throws of conflict?

Two words. Selfishness and Greed.

We like to think of ourselves as superior to every other life-form on the earth yet we can't seem to achieve the most basic level of harmony that the natural world achieves without any effort at all. Every other life form on the planet lives according to basic instincts and awareness of a natural order that keeps things in perpetual balance. As far as we know, only we humans have the gift/curse of self-awareness that allows us to totally ignore our interconnectedness with everything around us in favor of isolated, selfish motivations.

Humans are selfish creatures. Even when we act in giving, seemingly unselfish ways it's often because we want to be liked, to be seen as a good person, which in itself is fundamentally selfish. Of course, many of us also have genuine unselfish moments. We can give of ourselves, our time, our resources without any expectation of getting something in return. If we're honest however, if those moments fail to be recognized and appreciated eventually they too end up being tainted by our desire to at least get a thank you every now and then. Even the best of human nature ends up wanting

This is the last in a series written on the workings of our fraudulent banking system. You can find part one here called, "You Can't Bank on the Bankers." You can find part two here called "The Single Largest Crime In World History . . . Bankers steal the sovereign right of nations to create money."

MONEY . . . it's arguably one of the most important resources in our lives and yet most of us have no idea what it really is or more importantly what it's supposed to be. Money is supposed to be a medium of value that allows for a free exchange of goods and services. Money can be anything people commonly recognize as valuable and desirable. Commodities like gold and silver have been used because they have always been recognized as being valuable, relatively rare, durable, easily divisible and readily accepted in exchange for goods and services. The basic idea of money is that it has tangible value that everyone will accept as payment for other items of value.

Money is straightforward when it's commodity-based. A great example is money made from precious metals. You can see with your own eyes that it's something of value. The problems start when governments introduce money substitutes into the economy. A government can declare that anything is money. This kind of money is called "fiat money" because it is simply declared to be money by fiat or decree.

Resources exist that are said to be the property of society as a whole, things like water and air. Money should be one of those community resources. Money is required in order to create and maintain a healthy, prosperous economy. Money should not be a privatized resource any more than water or air should be. One of the main reasons we establish government in the first place is we all need a way to protect the common resources from exploitation by selfish individuals. One of most important duties of government is to provide a sound monetary system for the benefit of all not just a greedy few.

Last week I covered the fraud of "fractional reserve banking," the nifty little rule that bankers made up that allows them to claim they have SUBSTANTIALLY more money than they actually have. For example, if a banker has a million dollars in customer deposits, he gets to say he really has ten million dollars. A banker can create nine extra million dollars just by making journal entries. Bankers do nothing to earn that nine million. They just say they have it and we allow them to get away with it. For those of you who missed last week's article you can read it here.

You'd think the enormous advantage the fractional reserve banking scam gives the bankers would make them happy little campers. Well . . . you'd be wrong. Predatory bankers are never satisfied. They are like hungry ghosts, beings that are impossible to satisfy. The one big problem with the fractional reserve banking scam is it can only be used on money currently in circulation. For example, if there were only a billion dollars in circulation and it was all deposited into one bank, that bank could only multiply that billion dollars ten times to make an additional nine billion dollars. To a banker, that just won't do.

There is another little snafu with the fractional reserve scam. The extra money they are allowed to create is lent out at interest. In other words, if they have a million in deposits, they can then say they have an extra nine million that they lend out at say ten percent interest. What they can't create is the money necessary to cover the interest. If a banker lends out nine million dollars at ten percent annual interest where is that nine hundred thousand dollars going to come from to pay the interest? The banker is allowed to create the nine million through the fractional reserve scam but they can't create the extra nine hundred thousand dollars to cover the interest payments. Every year more money is needed to cover interest payments. Over time, the interest owed increases exponentially, exceeding the money in circulation. Since money to cover the interest payments is never created, eventually the money in circulation can't even pay the interest much less the principle and the system collapses under its own weight of debt. It's inevitable with this fraudulent system. Not to worry though. Bankers are nothing if not devious. They have ways to prolong the inevitable.
