The Dollar Bill and Economy Have Been Hijacked

     Did you know that the U.S. dollar bill used to have written on it "gold certificate," or otherwise "silver certificate?" Well, it certainly did. Back in the early 1900's, the Federal Reserve (which is no more federal than federal express and certainly is not part of the U.S. government) took control over our currency and economy. Now, our dollar bills have printed across the top of them "Federal Reserve Note," and instead of our dollar bills being backed by gold, which is required by the Constitution, our dollars are only debt. Now, we have a debt-based economy.

     As the world spirals into financial chaos, it can only leave one to wonder how, why, and for what purpose. Though all of the answers to those questions are not going to be found here, I hope to start you off in a quest for knowledge with the introduction of this video.

"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issuance of their currencies, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all their prosperity until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."
~President Thomas Jefferson, letter to Treasury Secretary Albert Gallatin (1802)
