Last autumn’s global financial crisis set off an economic earthquake. And we are still feeling the tremors. The latest sign of the ground shifting beneath our feet is our report today of plans by Gulf states, China, Russia, France and Japan to end their practice of conducting oil deals in US dollars, switching instead to a diverse basket of currencies.

It is not hard to see the motivation for oil exporters to move away from the dollar. The value of the US currency has fallen sharply since last year’s meltdown. And fears are growing, in the light of a spiraling US government deficit, that a further depreciation is likely. They do not want to sell their wares in return for a currency with an uncertain future.

It is also easy to see why China would like a world trading system that is underpinned by other currencies as well as the dollar. For the past decade Beijing has been recycling the proceeds of its giant national trade surplus into purchases of US government bonds and other dollar-denominated assets. China too stands to make a significant loss if the value of the dollar falls. For China, however, the timing is much more sensitive. Beijing needs to reduce its dollar holdings, but if it does so too quickly it will bring about the very devaluation it fears. This explains why Chinese officials appear to want this transition to take place gradually over the next decade.

But the significance of this development goes much further. Since the end of the Second World War the dollar has been the bedrock of world trade. The pre-eminence of the American currency flowed naturally from the economic dominance of the US. Virtually everyone traded with America so it made sense to use their currency.

But the US is not the dominant power that it once was. The financial crisis has left it hobbled with significant government and household debts and sharply reduced prospects for growth. Developing nations such as China, Brazil and India, on the other hand, have weathered the economic storm significantly better. So while this latest proposal is born of financial calculation, it is also a reflection of a new economic world order.

We should not be sentimental for the dollar. It makes economic sense for world trade to be conducted in a variety of currencies. Relying on one only has the advantage of clarity, but it also creates instability if the economy that underpins it faces uncertain prospects.

Yet we need to understand that exchange rate volatility is a symptom, rather than a cause, of what truly ails the world economy. The biggest driver of global economic instability in recent years has been the determination of China to boost its export sector at all costs. Beijing’s persistently large trade surpluses and manipulation to prevent its own currency from appreciating have effectively forced Western nations into running persistently large trade deficits. It was this pressure that blew up various asset bubbles that burst with such disastrous effect last year.

A gradual move away from the dollar makes sense. But without a commitment from world governments – both in the rich and developing world – to reduce these destabilizing global trade imbalances we will enter an uncertain new era; and one that could yet make us pine for the days of the dominant greenback.

Now a comment on the above article by The Liberty Tree Lantern:

Folks, this is just the first attempt to program your MATRIX dominated mind to accept a one world currency.  But remember, if you do you will be permanently be giving away your freedom, liberty and individual prosperity in exchange for human slavery, oppression, and tyranny with nowhere on Earth to run from the IRS and endless massive taxation of almost everything you ever earn and work for.  If we accept a one world currency, that they will try to push on us, eventually soon after, we will be forced into a One World Government / a New World Order. 

Do not fall for this.  They will tell half-truths and they will seem to make all kinds of sense just like when the bankers spoke about the importance of the Federal Reserve “System” central bank back in 1912-13 resulting in “The MATrix” our economy that only exists in our minds based on an almost worthless dollar.  Don’t accept a little bit of security at the expense of the true freedom and liberty that we can recapture only after the complete collapse of The MATRIX (our economy), when we can rebuild it with REAL money and create individual wealth for the common working man as well as small businesses that will then flourish.

This is just about the most embarrassing thing I have ever done.  The following article appeared in Pravda for crying out loud.  YES the same publication that used to be the Soviet Union main stream media propaganda machine of choice.

The following article, from the Russians, is a lecture!  It is not a lecture to our U.S. Government or to the U.S. Congress or to the Judicial Activists at the Supreme Court who legislate Government mockery of our cardinal laws written in The Constitution, NO, they are lecturing us, We The People who, through the blessings of our creator, originally INVENTED FREEDOM for the WORLD!

WHAT  HAVE  WE  DONE?   What have we personally and individually, each one of us, done, OR should I say NOT DONE, to have deserved this righteous criticism that drives a stake right through the heart of John Adams himself who said:   “Posterity!  You will never know how much it cost the present Generation to preserve your Freedom! I hope you will make good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven, that I ever took half the Pains to preserve it.”

Oh Mr. Adams, Forgive Us;  There are so many amongst us who have let The Federal Reserve company, a cartel of 12 private banks, owned by only 40 mega-powerful men, and our U.S. Congress and Executive Branches who We The People have let devise our public school curriculum that has purposely avoided teaching us even the one and ONLY meaning of Freedom and, additionally, the INDIVIDUAL responsibilities each one of us has to ENFORCE the LAWS as WE The People did ordain and establish ON our U.S. Government, to protect it. 

Why every day we let our Government and minions of Satan himself destroy our belief and support of our divine creator who bestowed upon us the unalienable rights that are the core of freedom itself.  Forgive us, Mr. Adams, Mr. Jefferson, Mr. Madison, Mr. Franklin, and all the rest of our honorable and noble Founding Fathers as well as all of our Minutemen and Militia and Revolutionary War Veterans who so gallantly fought against our own Government, we were all BRITISH subjects before the Revolutionary War started, for the cause of freedom.  Please also, great warriors of liberty and freedom, of all the armed forces who have died since for the very same great, worthy and noble cause, forgive us.  For you did NOT let us down, you laid your lives down for us, and we willingly, as “sheeple” gave our freedom away to the very sort of usurping, oppressive, tyrannical, despots  of whom ilk you so courageously fought.  Rest O spirits of honor, for there are brave amongst us who soon will rise from “The Masses” of Marxism, Communism and Fascism and we shall do everything in our power to restore the freedom and liberty that you laid down your lives for.  You did not die in vain!  We shall use every avenue at our disposal to peacefully ENFORCE every single word and syllable of The Constitution upon our Government.  And, if the oppressors and tyrants dare to push us into a corner, we will have the courage to do whatever is necessary to restore the canons of both of our founding documents.

Rest well my dear Founding Fathers and Patriots.  Our lights in the church tower have been lit and we shall ensure the passage of the torch of the ONE AND ONLY meaning of FREEDOM to our children, one way or the other; for there are those amongst us who And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.

And now, folks, look at how pitiful the World, including Russians, now see us for our own individual carelessness of our personal RESPONSIBILITIES to ENFORCE the LAW upon our Government.   Have you even bothered to read THE LAW in the Constitution?  Do you have any conception at all of its meaning and why it IS NOT A LIVING DOCUMENT to be changed at the whim of men in Congress or certainly not Supreme Court judges?

If you want your prosperity back, IF you care one miniscule iota about your children and your grandchildren then by God, you must learn the meaning, reason and spirit of our Founding Documents and the foundation of the essence of God himself that resides in it!  For ONLY THEN will our Godly blessings of prosperity and INDIVIDUAL power over our Government be returned to us, through our own courage and hard toiling work that is now required.  – -  Capt. Karl

Read and whimper, people, this article from Russian Pravda:

******************************************************************

It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people.

True, the situation has been well prepared on and off for the past century, especially the past twenty years. The initial testing grounds was conducted upon our Holy Russia and a bloody test it was. But we Russians would not just roll over and give up our freedoms and our souls, no matter how much money Wall Street poured into the fists of the Marxists.

Those lessons were taken and used to properly prepare the American populace for the surrender of their freedoms and souls, to the whims of their elites and betters.

First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and substandard education system based on pop culture, rather then the classics. Americans know more about their favorite TV dramas then the drama in DC that directly affects their lives. They care more for their “right” to choke down a McDonalds burger or a BurgerKing burger than for their constitutional rights. Then they turn around and lecture us about our rights and about our “democracy”. Pride blind the foolish.

Then their faith in God was destroyed, until their churches, all tens of thousands of different “branches and denominations” were for the most part little more then Sunday circuses and their televangelists and top protestant mega preachers were more then happy to sell out their souls and flocks to be on the “winning” side of one pseudo Marxist politician or another. Their flocks may complain, but when explained that they would be on the “winning” side, their flocks were ever so quick to reject Christ in hopes for earthly power. Even our Holy Orthodox churches are scandalously liberalized in America.

The final collapse has come with the election of Barack Obama. His speed in the past three months has been truly impressive. His spending and money printing has been a record setting, not just in America’s short history but in the world. If this keeps up for more then another year, and there is no sign that it will not, America at best will resemble the Wiemar Republic and at worst Zimbabwe.

These past two weeks have been the most breath taking of all. First came the announcement of a planned redesign of the American Byzantine tax system, by the very thieves who used it to bankroll their thefts, loses and swindles of hundreds of billions of dollars. These make our Russian oligarchs look little more then ordinary street thugs, in comparison. Yes, the Americans have beat our own thieves in the shear volumes. Should we congratulate them?

These men, of course, are not an elected panel but made up of appointees picked from the very financial oligarchs and their henchmen who are now gorging themselves on trillions of American dollars, in one bailout after another. They are also usurping the rights, duties and powers of the American congress (parliament). Again, congress has put up little more then a whimper to their masters.

Then came Barack Obama’s command that GM’s (General Motor) president step down from leadership of his company. That is correct, dear reader, in the land of “pure” free markets, the American president now has the power, the self given power, to fire CEOs and we can assume other employees of private companies, at will. Come hither, go dither, the centurion commands his minions.

So it should be no surprise, that the American president has followed this up with a “bold” move of declaring that he and another group of unelected, chosen stooges will now redesign the entire automotive industry and will even be the guarantee of automobile policies. I am sure that if given the chance, they would happily try and redesign it for the whole of the world, too. Prime Minister Putin, less then two months ago, warned Obama and UK’s Blair, not to follow the path to Marxism, it only leads to disaster. Apparently, even though we suffered 70 years of this Western sponsored horror show, we know nothing, as foolish, drunken Russians, so let our “wise” Anglo-Saxon fools find out the folly of their own pride.

Again, the American public has taken this with barely a whimper…but a “freeman” whimper.

So, should it be any surprise to discover that the Democratically controlled Congress of America is working on passing a new regulation that would give the American Treasury department the power to set “fair” maximum salaries, evaluate performance and control how private companies give out pay raises and bonuses? Senator Barney Franks, a social pervert basking in his homosexuality (of course, amongst the modern, enlightened American societal norm, as well as that of the general West, homosexuality is not only not a looked down upon life choice, but is often praised as a virtue) and his Marxist enlightenment, has led this effort. He stresses that this only affects companies that receive government monies, but it is retroactive and taken to a logical extreme, this would include any company or industry that has ever received a tax break or incentive.

The Russian owners of American companies and industries should look thoughtfully at this and the option of closing their facilities down and fleeing the land of the Red as fast as possible. In other words, divest while there is still value left.

The proud American will go down into his slavery with out a fight, beating his chest and proclaiming to the world, how free he really is. The world will only snicker.

What do you think about an Administration and U.S. Congressman, such as Charlie (tax cheating) Rangel (D-NY) that states this:

FOLKS ,   HOW  LONG   ARE  WE   GOING   TO   LIVE   IN   DENIAL   THAT    OUR   COUNTRY,    OUR   JOBS,    OUR   LIBERTY,   OUR   FREEDOM    AND   OUR   AMERICAN   WAY   IS   BEING   SYSTEMATICALLY    DESTROYED?

 NOW    WILL    YOU   RISE   UP    AND    DO     SOMETHING?     SOON   YOU   WILL   ONLY   HAVE   A   COUPLE   OF   HOURS   TO   DECIDE    TO   RISE   UP   OR    THE    U.  S.    GOVERNMENT    WILL     HAVE    DESTROYED   OUR   ABILITY   TO   RISE    UP    AND    ACTUALLY   DO   ANYTHING    TO    DO    ANYTHING,    BECAUSE    THEY     WILL    ENTIRELY    DESTROY     THE     CONSTITUTION    AND    THE    PROTECTION    OF    OUR   NATIONAL    AND    INDIVIDUAL   RIGHTS    AND    LAWS    ON   GOVERNMENT.

If you want to go out and have a cocktail or a few beers at a Supper Club or tavern,  for Gods, sake  talk about these things with everybody you see.   Your freedom, your jobs, and your lifestyle depends on how much you talk about these matters.   You have little time left…   Go out into the public and talk about these things.  YOU   HAVE  TOO!    Denying that these things by our enemy, The U.S. Government, are happening is the ultimate in utter stupidity and foolishness.

AND forward a link of this blog to everybody.   Where else is anybody going to learn that we have been living in a REAL (FINANCIAL)  “Matrix” just like in the movie.   “The Matrix” is what most call “OUR ECONOMY”.   Our economy is supported by The Dollar.   The Dollar have printed on them what they really are  FEDERAL RESERVE “NOTES”.  A  “NOTE” is nothing more than a “promise” to pay back the holder with “real” money in the future; an I.O.U.

Trillions of Dollars have been / are being printed out of thin air.  How can wealth and blessings of wealth be printed out of thin air and the value of it be sustained.  IT ISN’T POSSIBLE!

Our economy, better to be understood using the term: “The Matrix”,  only exists in our minds because our minds have been programmed to believe that the Dollar is worth a Dollar while in “REALITY” it represents little more than any paper and ink that comes out of your home printer.  How would you like to be able to print money out of your home printer and be able to use that money for whatever you wanted and give or borrow, at interest or no interest, however much you wanted to whoever you wanted?

The FEDERAL RESERVE “SYSTEM” is a cartel of twelve private banks which are owned and entirely controlled by forty mostly foreign mega-powerful persons.  Congress Constitutionally illegally gave “The FED”, which is as “Federal” as Federal Express, the ability and the authority to print as much money as they want for whatever reason they want, so that the Federal Government would have the ability to have limitless borrowing to grow far beyond the authority and laws written in OUR Constitution.  Our Income taxes go Directly from IRS collection centers and are given to THE FEDERAL RESERVE company to pay “interest” on the Government borrowed money.  NONE of our Income Taxes goes to the Treasury and NONE of our Income Taxes are used for the things that Government spends money on.  It all goes to THE FEDERAL RESERVE company for their own personal purposes in the form of profits from interest on The Public Debt.  They lend some of our Income Tax money to the U.S. Government because this private company believes it is a good risk and has a good return on investment of ‘THEIR MONEY”.

We have to let “The MATRIX” collapse.  Yes that is exactly the same as saying, We have to let our ECONOMY collapse.  This is also the same as saying we have to let the prison of our minds collapse, because without TRUE freedom of our minds and true freedom in REALITY we can not ever have TRUE individual prosperity.

Besides letting our economy collapse, we must FORCE the U.S. Government to OBEY the laws WE THE PEOPLE did establish and ordain as written in The Constitution, to the Word, Spirit and Intent as it WAS meant before any legalize spin or judicial activism by The Supreme Court.  And, we must revisit any Amendments, that were claimed by any lying Secretary of State, such as Secretary Philanderer Knox, to have been ratified.  The 16th Amendment would be a good first one to take a good and thorough looksie at the ORIGINAL “STATE Certified” documents from the States.   THIS IS ONE ITEM THAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE MUST FIGHT FOR TO HAVE DONE, SO WE CAN GET OUR FREEDOM, OUR REAL ECONOMY, OUR MONEY AND OUR PERSONAL PROPERTY BACK! 

After “The Matrix” (our economy) has collapsed and AFTER we have RE-ESTABLISHED  the Constitution to its full force and affect upon our NEWLY CONSTITUTIONALLY Established Government, we can rebuild our economy using REAL   Dollars, backed by gold and silver bullion, and gold and silver coin, and create real INDIVIDUAL wealth and prosperity.  Just imagine how quickly we will be able to restore the wealth our minds were programmed to “think” we had, when all of our earnings are ours to keep.  Just think how much money we will be able to GIVE in love to others to help our neighbors, our friends and brothers/sisters in need.

Just think of how God will bless America once more when he creates the “real” wealth and not a private company called THE FEDERAL RESERVE and we honor and pray to him for our individual prosperity and economy instead of praying to our almighty Government with our hands out begging to them.  What has happened to us and our honor that we would beg the U.S. Government for handouts?  What has happened to us when we pray to Government for blessings, food and housing instead of to God?  What has happened to us when we honestly believe that a private company called The Federal Reserve can create wealth and prosperity for us from printing presses and then, in the end, not have to pay for it out of our own property and sweat in the form of slavery through taxation?  We must have gone mad!  No, actually, we let public schools, the main stream media, the U.S. Government and The Federal Reserve and their Trilateral Commission, use a technique called “Mass Behavior Modification” on our minds.   We started to believe all of this stuff and we let them remove God from the equation of life and our lives.  We must get ourselves de-programmed so that we can live in TRUE freedom and procure the actual blessings of a loving God and NOT the cold hands of the U.S. Government being controlled by a humongous privately held corporation called THE FEDERAL RESERVE “SYSTEM” that created “The MATRIX” (our ECONOMY that only exists in our minds and that which is Godless as it is made up of little more than printers ink and paper).

We must not fear the blessed collapse of “The MATRIX” (OUR ECONOMY) that only exists in our minds anyway) which controls our minds and our lives in a prison you can not touch or see.  A form of slavery through taxation and massive NEAR FUTURE increases in taxation that we can ill afford and which will only serve to deepen the U.S. Government’s and The Fed’s control and manipulations of us and our daily lives AND ultimately the entire destruction of Liberty and Freedom under God.

The final result of our current course is a hybrid of Socialism, Communism and Fascism resulting in the equal distribution of misery in poverty under a one world government with nowhere to run to escape to freedom.  No America to run to.  A U.N. style total TOTALITARIAN world wide State in the nightmare of equal poverty where everyone in the world is ”encouraged” to sing together (at the point of a fully automatic weapon held by a soldier under a blue helmet)  ”We are the people, We are the Children“  and “It’s a Small World After All“, as if we were in the Disney World ride from hell.  (Okay, I know, AS crazy as it sounds, seeing and hearing for myself, actions such as  The Secretary of Labor Robert Reich  above, I know  this is true and a fact AND that’s enough for me!  I’m ready to grab my gun right now! (especially the singing part – really!  go to your pubic school right now today, they are really having and programming our children to do and sing this stuff getting them ready for the “NEW WORLD ORDER” multi-culturalism, over Tolerance, Anti-American nightmare, sadly this IS NOT A JOKE!  GO  SEE  AT  YOUR   OWN   PUBLIC   SCHOOL, to witness it for yourself)  And, to complete the “behavior modification” the “programmers” who work for THE FEDERAL RESERVE / U.S. Government and the NEW WORLD “It’s a Small World After All” ilk will now say about me and the gun thing;  See a bible thumping “gun clinging” nutcase;  just to control and brainwash YOUR mind/s..  Why,,,     so that liberty, freedom, personal individual prosperity and God can not come back.  They are, without question, of the darkside, minions of evil.  The minions who want to rub out God and any sense of righteousness and morality.  How can printing money from a printing press, resulting in no need for God what-so-ever (at least on Earth) be moral?).  If there is a God and you chose ”The MATRIX” printing presses over the collapse of “The MATRIX” (our economy), rather than and in preference to honoring  God, then why should he bless us with “REAL” assets, resources and individual prosperity?  

And, how do you think he is going to judge you when the time comes?   None of us will have a choice but to decide which side we are on, the side of freedom, liberty, individual prosperity and God, OR the equal distribution of misery in poverty in a Godless Socialist, Communist, Fascist hybrid under a U.N. One World Governance ultimately controlled by the forty owners of THE FED and their printing presses printing out the NEW WORLD CURRENCY.  . – -  Capt.  Karl

Dr. Ben S. Bernanke 14th Chairman of the Federal Reserve company.

1. Government’s Must continue to take FORCEFUL, “COORDINATED”, action to restore financial markets.
2. Continued viability of systemically important banks is vital.  In layman’s language that means that all governments need to continue to raise withholding and payroll taxes on all working people to give to big banks.
3. Treasury and The Fed will take any necessary steps to ensure banks have enough capital and liquidity. This means that they will continue to take as much ADDITIONAL money out of our future earnings as they need to give to big banks.
4. Reform of U.S. Financial System should be “COORDINATED GLOBALLY”.  This means that their should be a One World Government so that no American or anybody else in the world has a place to run to to protect their INDIVIDUAL earnings, property or freedom from the Government or the Banks.
5. Bernanke: Regulators Must insist banks can monitor and manage risks in a timely manner. This means that Big banks should have the authority to dig into the private affairs of private lives and businesses and even tell them what to do if they feel like it.
6. Calls for “CONSOLIDATED SUPERVISION” of all systemically important financial institutions by The Federal Reserve company.  This means that The Fed, the largest most powerful private corporation in the world, should have ultimate control over all banks that hold the individual banking accounts of Americans. and eventually all accounts throughout the world.
7. U.S. also needs to supervise all systemically important non-bank financial firms.
8. FED focusing on contingency plan for two clearing banks that handle Repos.  This means that The Fed is working to setup two Big Banks to take what you own in property when you go broke from the future ADDITIONAL taxation of your earnings, which will be 80 – 90% of the common working man’s paycheck.  The vast amount of GDP wealth resides with the Hundreds of Millions of the average working class in America; therefore, The FED, the private company who “profits” through the collection of ALL INCOME TAXES paid in the United States, which THEY collect through the IRS, according to The 1983 Grace Commission Report to President Reagan, will receive your personal property through these two banks when you all go broke from taxation, which will occur with in three years or so.
9. Fed should have explicit authority over systemically important payment and settlement systems. This means that The Fed will decide who gives and who receives, who is allowed to be wealthy and who will pay to develop the wealth for the anointed.
10. Bernanke suggests either tighter controls on Money Market investments or Insurance Plan.

We all need to see what Thomas Jefferson, President and Founding Father of our Nation, said about Central Banks like The Fed:

1.  
   1. Banking institutions, paper money, and paper speculation are capable of undermining the nation’s stability and could be a danger in time of war. The Constitution does not empower the Congress to establish a National Bank. Rather than trust the nation’s currency to private hands, the circulating medium should be restored to the nation itself to whom it belongs.
   2. ″Paper is poverty,… it is only the ghost of money, and not money itself.” –Thomas Jefferson to Edward Carrington, 1788.
   3. ″It is a [disputed] question, whether the circulation of paper, rather than of specie, is a good or an evil… I believe it to be one of those cases where mercantile clamor will bear down reason, until it is corrected by ruin.” –Thomas Jefferson to John W. Eppes, 1813. ME 13:409 
   4. “One of three great measures necessary to insure us permanent prosperity… should insure resources of money by the suppression of all paper circulation during peace, and licensing that of the nation alone during war. The metallic medium of which we should be possessed at the commencement of a war, would be a sufficient fund for all the loans we should need through its continuance; and if the national bills issued be bottomed (as is indispensable) on pledges of specific taxes for their redemption within certain and moderate epochs, and be of proper denominations for circulation, no interest on them would be necessary or just, because they would answer to everyone the purposes of the metallic money withdrawn and replaced by them.” –Thomas Jefferson to William H. Crawford, 1816. ME 15:30
   5. “It would be best that our medium should be so proportioned to our produce, as to be on a par with that of the countries with which we trade, and whose medium is in a sound state.” –Thomas Jefferson to John W. Eppes, 1813. ME 13:430
   6. “That paper money has some advantages is admitted. But that its abuses also are inevitable and, by breaking up the measure of value, makes a lottery of all private property, cannot be denied. –Thomas Jefferson to Josephus B. Stuart, 1817. ME 15:113
   7. “The trifling economy of paper, as a cheaper medium, or its convenience for transmission, weighs nothing in opposition to the advantages of the precious metals… it is liable to be abused, has been, is, and forever will be abused, in every country in which it is permitted.” –Thomas Jefferson to John W. Eppes, 1813. ME 13:430
   8. “Scenes are now to take place as will open the eyes of credulity and of insanity itself, to the dangers of a paper medium abandoned to the discretion of avarice and of swindlers.” –Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Cooper, 1814. ME 14:189
   9. “The States should be applied to, to transfer the right of issuing circulating paper to Congress exclusively, in perpetuum.” –Thomas Jefferson to John W. Eppes, 1813. ME 13:276
   10. “The evils of this deluge of paper money are not to be removed until our citizens are generally and radically instructed in their cause and consequences, and silence by their authority the interested clamors and sophistry of speculating, shaving, and banking institutions. Till then, we must be content to return quoad hoc to the savage state, to recur to barter in the exchange of our property for want of a stable common measure of value, that now in use being less fixed than the beads and wampum of the Indian, and to deliver up our citizens, their property and their labor, passive victims to the swindling tricks of bankers and mountebankers.” –Thomas Jefferson to John Adams, 1819. ME 15:185
   11. “Private fortunes, in the present state of our circulation, are at the mercy of those self-created money lenders, and are prostrated by the floods of nominal money with which their avarice deluges us.” –Thomas Jefferson to John W. Eppes, 1813. ME 13:276
   12. “It is a cruel thought, that, when we feel ourselves standing on the firmest ground in every respect, the cursed arts of our secret enemies, combining with other causes, should effect, by depreciating our money, what the open arms of a powerful enemy could not.” –Thomas Jefferson to Richard Henry Lee, 1779. ME 4:298, Papers 2:298
   13. “I now deny [the Federal Government's] power of making paper money or anything else a legal tender.” –Thomas Jefferson to John Taylor, 1798. ME 10:65
   14. “A spirit… of gambling in our public paper has seized on too many of our citizens, and we fear it will check our commerce, arts, manufactures, and agriculture, unless stopped.” –Thomas Jefferson to William Carmichael, 1791. ME 8:230
   15. “All the capital employed in paper speculation is barren and useless, producing, like that on a gaming table, no accession to itself, and is withdrawn from commerce and agriculture where it would have produced addition to the common mass… It nourishes in our citizens habits of vice and idleness instead of industry and morality… It has furnished effectual means of corrupting such a portion of the legislature as turns the balance between the honest voters whichever way it is directed.” –Thomas Jefferson to George Washington, 1792. ME 8:344
   16. “We are now taught to believe that legerdemain tricks upon paper can produce as solid wealth as hard labor in the earth. It is vain for common sense to urge that nothing can produce but nothing; that it is an idle dream to believe in a philosopher’s stone which is to turn everything into gold, and to redeem man from the original sentence of his Maker, ‘in the sweat of his brow shall he eat his bread.’” –Thomas Jefferson to Charles Yancey, 1816. ME 14:381
   17. “I own it to be my opinion, that good will arise from the destruction of our credit. I see nothing else which can restrain our disposition to luxury, and to the change of those manners which alone can preserve republican government. As it is impossible to prevent credit, the best way would be to cure its ill effects by giving an instantaneous recovery to the creditor. This would be reducing purchases on credit to purchases for ready money. A man would then see a prison painted on everything he wished, but had not ready money to pay for.” –Thomas Jefferson to Archibald Stuart, 1786. ME 5:259
   18. “We should try whether the prodigal might not be restrained from taking on credit the gewgaw held out to him in one hand, by seeing the keys of a prison in the other.” –Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Pleasants, 1786. ME 5:325, Papers 9:472
   19. “The maxim of buying nothing without the money in our pockets to pay for it would make of our country one of the happiest on earth.” –Thomas Jefferson to Alexander Donald, 1787. ME 6:192
   20. “That we are overdone with banking institutions which have banished the precious metals and substituted a more fluctuating and unsafe medium, that these have withdrawn capital from useful improvements and employments to nourish idleness, that the wars of the world have swollen our commerce beyond the wholesome limits of exchanging our own productions for our own wants, and that, for the emolument of a small proportion of our society who prefer these demoralizing pursuits to labors useful to the whole, the peace of the whole is endangered and all our present difficulties produced, are evils more easily to be deplored than remedied.” –Thomas Jefferson to Abbe Salimankis, 1810. ME 12:379
   21. “The system of banking [I] have… ever reprobated. I contemplate it as a blot left in all our Constitutions, which, if not covered, will end in their destruction, which is already hit by the gamblers in corruption, and is sweeping away in its progress the fortunes and morals of our citizens.” –Thomas Jefferson to John Taylor, 1816. ME 15:18
   22. “The banks… have the regulation of the safety-valves of our fortunes, and… condense and explode them at their will.” –Thomas Jefferson to John Adams, 1819. ME 15:224
   23. “I sincerely believe… that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies, and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity under the name of funding is but swindling futurity on a large scale.” –Thomas Jefferson to John Taylor, 1816. ME 15:23
   24. “The incorporation of a bank and the powers assumed [by legislation doing so] have not, in my opinion, been delegated to the United States by the Constitution. They are not among the powers specially enumerated.” –Thomas Jefferson: Opinion on Bank, 1791. ME 3:146     

   25. “[The] Bank of the United States… is one of the most deadly hostility existing, against the principles and form of our Constitution… An institution like this, penetrating by its branches every part of the Union, acting by command and in phalanx, may, in a critical moment, upset the government. I deem no government safe which is under the vassalage of any self-constituted authorities, or any other authority than that of the nation, or its regular functionaries. What an obstruction could not this bank of the United States, with all its branch banks, be in time of war! It might dictate to us the peace we should accept, or withdraw its aids. Ought we then to give further growth to an institution so powerful, so hostile?” –Thomas Jefferson to Albert Gallatin, 1803. ME 10:437     

   26. “The monopoly of a single bank is certainly an evil. The multiplication of them was intended to cure it; but it multiplied an influence of the same character with the first, and completed the supplanting the precious metals by a paper circulation. –Thomas Jefferson to Albert Gallatin, 1802. ME 10:323     

   27. “In order to be able to meet a general combination of the banks against us in a critical emergency, could we not make a beginning towards an independent use of our own money, towards holding our own bank in all the deposits where it is received, and letting the treasurer give his draft or note for payment at any particular place, which, in a well-conducted government, ought to have as much credit as any private draft or bank note or bill, and would give us the same facilities which we derive from the banks?” –Thomas Jefferson to Albert Gallatin, 1803. ME 10:439     

   28. “Bank paper must be suppressed, and the circulating medium must be restored to the nation to whom it belongs. It is the only fund on which they can rely for loans; it is the only resource which can never fail them, and it is an abundant one for every necessary purpose. Treasury bills, bottomed on taxes, bearing or not bearing interest, as may be found necessary, thrown into circulation will take the place of so much gold and silver, which last, when crowded, will find an efflux into other countries, and thus keep the quantum of medium at its salutary level. Let banks continue if they please, but let them discount for cash alone or for treasury notes.” –Thomas Jefferson to John W. Eppes, 1813. ME 13:361     

   29. “The art and mystery of banks… is established on the principle that ‘private debts are a public blessing.’ That the evidences of those private debts, called bank notes, become active capital, and aliment the whole commerce, manufactures, and agriculture of the United States. Here are a set of people, for instance, who have bestowed on us the great blessing of running in our debt about two hundred millions of dollars, without our knowing who they are, where they are, or what property they have to pay this debt when called on; nay, who have made us so sensible of the blessings of letting them run in our debt, that we have exempted them by law from the repayment of these debts beyond a give proportion (generally estimated at one-third). And to fill up the measure of blessing, instead of paying, they receive an interest on what they owe from those to whom they owe; for all the notes, or evidences of what they owe, which we see in circulation, have been lent to somebody on an interest which is levied again on us through the medium of commerce. And they are so ready still to deal out their liberalities to us, that they are now willing to let themselves run in our debt ninety millions more, on our paying them the same premium of six or eight per cent interest, and on the same legal exemption from the repayment of more than thirty millions of the debt, when it shall be called for.” –Thomas Jefferson to John W. Eppes, 1813. ME 13:420     

   30. “The bank mania… is raising up a moneyed aristocracy in our country which has already set the government at defiance, and although forced at length to yield a little on this first essay of their strength, their principles are unyielded and unyielding. These have taken deep root in the hearts of that class from which our legislators are drawn, and the sop to Cerberus from fable has become history. Their principles lay hold of the good, their pelf of the bad, and thus those whom the Constitution had placed as guards to its portals, are sophisticated or suborned from their duties.” –Thomas Jefferson to Josephus B. Stuart, 1817. ME 15:112     

   31. “Put down all banks, admit none but a metallic circulation that will take its proper level with the like circulation in other countries, and then our manufacturers may work in fair competition with those of other countries, and the import duties which the government may lay for the purposes of revenue will so far place them above equal competition.” –Thomas Jefferson to Charles Pinckney, 1820. ME 15:280     

   32. “But it will be asked, are we to have no banks? Are merchants and others to be deprived of the resource of short accommodations, found so convenient? I answer, let us have banks; but let them be such as are alone to be found in any country on earth, except Great Britain. There is not a bank of discount on the continent of Europe (at least there was not one when I was there) which offers anything but cash in exchange for discounted bills.” –Thomas Jefferson to John W. Eppes, 1813. ME 13:277     

   33. “If the debt which the banking companies owe be a blessing to anybody, it is to themselves alone, who are realizing a solid interest of eight or ten per cent on it. As to the public, these companies have banished all our gold and silver medium, which, before their institution, we had without interest, which never could have perished in our hands, and would have been our salvation now in the hour of war; instead of which they have given us two hundred million of froth and bubble, on which we are to pay them heavy interest, until it shall vanish into air… We are warranted, then, in affirming that this parody on the principle of ‘a public debt being a public blessing,’ and its mutation into the blessing of private instead of public debts, is as ridiculous as the original principle itself. In both cases, the truth is, that capital may be produced by industry, and accumulated by economy; but jugglers only will propose to create it by legerdemain tricks with paper.” –Thomas Jefferson to John W. Eppes, 1813. ME 13:423     

   34. “Everything predicted by the enemies of banks, in the beginning, is now coming to pass. We are to be ruined now by the deluge of bank paper. It is cruel that such revolutions in private fortunes should be at the mercy of avaricious adventurers, who, instead of employing their capital, if any they have, in manufactures, commerce, and other useful pursuits, make it an instrument to burden all the interchanges of property with their swindling profits, profits which are the price of no useful industry of theirs.” –Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Cooper, 1814. ME 14:61
   35. “Certainly no nation ever before abandoned to the avarice and jugglings of private individuals to regulate according to their own interests, the quantum of circulating medium for the nation — to inflate, by deluges of paper, the nominal prices of property, and then to buy up that property at 1s. in the pound, having first withdrawn the floating medium which might endanger a competition in purchase. Yet this is what has been done, and will be done, unless stayed by the protecting hand of the legislature. The evil has been produced by the error of their sanction of this ruinous machinery of banks; and justice, wisdom, duty, all require that they should interpose and arrest it before the schemes of plunder and spoilation desolate the country.” –Thomas Jefferson to William C. Rives, 1819. ME 15:232   

What is the “root” cause of all the economic problems America is experiencing today and is the cause for millions of American’s losing jobs across all sectors and job positions?  From shrink wrapping employees to the presidents and owner’s of long standing companies closing their doors, people are losing their jobs, the ability to pay their daily bills and hold on to their homes.  Why?

The news and business analysis programs you can watch on TV or hear on the radio tell you that it is because of “sub-prime mortgages” or because of the bursting of the “housing bubble” or that one feeds into the other and other reasons as well.  While all of these assessments are true these are not the core basis of the problems to which they allude.  America will never be able to fully “fix” the problem so we can get on with life in any sort of normal American fashion until somebody tells you the “bottom line” truth of the core problem and not just the symptoms.

The bottom line is actually three fold, which can be folded together into the one BIG problem that us individual American citizens can correct by doing things that most American’s either hate, don’t want to do, or feel is not “polite”, but we’ll get to that in a bit.

First off, there is a huge entity in the United States that is like an eight hundred pound gorilla in a small air tight vault of our economy along with the rest of us Americans.  This eight hundred pound gorilla is not only picking us up and tossing us around bashing our heads against the walls and telling us what to do, which is far bad enough in our vault of which we can’t escape, but he is also sucking all the financial air out of the vault and suffocating us to financial death, to the point that there is no “real” money left for us or our economy.  That eight hundred pound gorilla is the U.S. Government.  And, if we don’t do something to shrink that behemoth to a sustainable size that does not suck so much air out of the vault we are going to die, some of us literally, due to lack of financial funds necessary for sustenance and life in this day and age.  (Perhaps as planned by the environmental fruitcakes?  If they feel that a number of people should die, I suggest they show us the way and we’ll watch, with a bowl of popcorn, a beer, and a loudly cheering spirited expression of happiness.  Just think of how wonderful and beautiful our planet would be without environmental wackos, who through Big Government legislation, and the incremental elimination of freedom is causing death, destruction and/or economic hardship to those for whom (but possibly not only) the Earth, the plants, the animals and the Universe were created by the hand of God.

Secondly, that eight hundred pound gorilla thinks he can create wealth out of thin air through the creation of a private company, completely unanswerable to the general public or Congress with anything more than spin and double talk, called The Federal Reserve “System”. The gorilla thinks that he can take God out of the equation of life and his impact on the economy by simply authorizing “The Fed” the ability to “create” out of thin air, using little more than paper and ink, as much money as this private company wants, whenever they feel like it, for whatever reason they feel like it, without them being subject to audit, FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) requests, The Constitution, or even being subject to the power of “Natural Law” or God himself.  Our U.S. Congress feels that they can denigrate our Constitution in any contemptible way they feel like it despite the fact that it was our creator that gave us certain unalienable rights that chief among these are life, LIBERTY, and the pursuit (but not the promise) of happiness.  That happiness is to be in the hands of us, the people through OUR choices and work ethic, and what some people call luck or that provided by the hand of our almighty Lord.

The gorilla through sheer brute force and beating of his chest in intimidation, oppression and despotism, wants to designate and decide who and what amongst us is fair and how our economy should be divided up, rather than place those decisions in the hands of the “free” and, Heaven forbid, God.  So, in order to take God out of the economic equation, the gorilla thought that if he created a private “untouchable” private company from whom he could borrow as much money as he ever wanted, without getting the money from taxes, originating from the blessings of God through his people, he could take that money and give “free stuff” in the form of “domestic” social spending programs and “community development “grants”, etc, etc, etc back to the people; ultimately resulting in us people in the vault looking and praying to the gorilla rather than to our creator.  After all, now wealth and blessings don’t come from God anymore, they come from “The Fed” which was created by the gorilla.  See now we don’t have to worry ourselves about God anymore.  WE don’t need him, because we have the almighty gorilla.

Because the gorilla creates wealth out of thin air and is making our economy grow bigger and bigger and bigger and we are building more and more and more and bigger and bigger and bigger homes and buying cars, boats, RVs and cottages with monopoly money supported by almost no hard assets (otherwise known as the sweat and hard work of man or the natural resources of the Earth created by the blessings of the hand of God), we are willing to take our heads being slammed against the wall when the eight hundred pound gorilla grabs us and our freedom by the feet and starts swinging us around and around and flinging us against walls of the vault.  Because the gorilla has created a private company that is printing endless amounts of this “Godless” wealth monopoly money out of thin air and we are getting all sorts of “free stuff” and community grants, etc., etc., etc. we are willing to let the gorilla keep on sucking all the financial air and liberty out of the vault.  In fact we are so beguiled by the printed out of thin air “Godless” money floating all around us, despite the fact that the gorilla is breathing all the financial air out of the vault and suffocating us, we keep on voting him back into office and feeding him.

Now what was an eight hundred pound gorilla is now an eight hundred TON gorilla.  He is even more powerful and is smashing our heads and our liberties against the wall even harder than ever before.  We have fed the gorilla so much and he has grown so huge and powerful that he has broken most of the shackles that

U.S. Government has become King Kong destroying our economy.

we the people placed around his appendages in the Constitution to protect our lives from him.  We have allowed him to break the shackles because we liken him to God because we have let the gorilla mesmerize our minds into believing that he can create wealth out of thin air and give it to us in all sorts of ways, direct and indirect, in the form of welfare, Social Security, Medicare, Prescription Drugs, Community Development projects, etc., etc., etc., all the while the sly old gorilla is usurping our power as a free people away from us and even, he “thinks”, from God, by printing wealth out of thin air.

Now, in addition, we add to this nightmare of the King Kong playing God, the “credit” markets.  Now though the decades of printing money out of thin air, convoluted businessmen, cozying up with the Kong, have figured out how to create money out of thin air themselves through the credit markets and the employment of something they call Collateralized Debt Obligation – CDO.  These are so-called securities that backing them are rating agencies using forms of mathematics that are so complicated that even Alan Greenspan admitted that he doesn’t get it.  And, besides his incredible level of mathematics he has hundreds of PHDs in resources in support.  And they couldn’t understand the math supporting the ratings of these securities.  Now these CDO’s being stamped as TRIPLE A (AAA) the Chinese, being cash flush, and other countries around the world bought them, flooding the U.S. markets with cash. 

Well it turns out that the so called “advanced” math is bull shit because the logarithms used in the calculations used to produce the ratings indicated that residential home values would continue to increase at a rate of no less than 5 – 6% annually with no end or impunity.   The Chinese and the other countries didn’t realize what they were in for by trusting Kong, his private bank called “The Fed” (which actually controls Kong because Kong he feeds on the printed monopoly money to live and he will shrink back down to the Chimp that he is without it) and his immoral minions on Wall Street.

So where does this all bring us and how do we fix it?

Well it brought us to the point, as you are aware, near entire economic collapse and the potential for total economic collapse to happen any day now.  The question is will China and the rest of the world continue to keep their money in CDO’s despite the fact that Kong and his Wall Street multi-million dollar per year salaried / bonus immoral minions screwed them.  That answer, in the short term of the next few months, is unclear because of all of the monopoly money that China and the rest of the nations are getting from the all powerful Federal Reserve company that is controlling our daily lives and decisions; and the decisions and direction of Kong himself and in deed the patsies of the world who have become addicted to what we call “The Matrix”, which is the economy that is comprised of fake money or monopoly money that we have been programmed to believe is worth a Dollar, despite the FACT that it is only supported by 2 – 3 cents of hard assets. 

In the very short time of less than four years, due to the size Kong and the amount of finances he needs to eat to stay at his current ravenous size, due to the forces of “Natural Law” of the financial physics of economics that exists in the universe as created by God, not even printing wealth out of thin air will work anymore.  Therefore the private company that is owned by forty all powerful dominant persons that controls Kong via his financial food supply will order Kong to significantly increase the level of income taxes on us because they won’t have a choice.  You see, “The Matrix”, this economy that only exists in our minds, will not be sustainable without more power, in the form of hard assets, which ultimately is supplied by our creator through the hard work and sweat of man and/or the natural resources he provided to us on Earth.  The fact is that all Income Taxes, according to the publically available Grace Commission Report to President Reagan, that is collected by the IRS goes directly to The Fed in the form of interest on the public debt, which is needed to feed Kong.  The bigger that Kong gets, the more air he sucks out of the vault and the more of us that will suffocate financially.

So, at the end of the day, free stuff from Kong, isn’t free.  In fact it is so costly, we are going to pay a price so dear, that at the very least we are going to suffer financially to the extent that many of us may even starve.  The only thing that is worse is that we lose the one thing that will bring us back from the entire suffocation from Kong.  Our FREEDOM as enforced through the Kong shackles of The Constitution.

In order to get our air back and stop suffocating from the likes of the bully bashing our heads, Kong, we have to fully re-attach the shackles of The Constitution to its full force and effect, word for word, to the very spirit and intent of our precious document, as it WAS meant on the day it was ratified; all “truly” ratified amendments in a comprehensive “re-proven” full transparent way accepted.  Readers should be aware that the 16^th Amendment, despite the fact that according to the Supreme Court does not impart any more taxes on anybody that it wasn’t taxed before it, wasn’t ratified in the first place.  Kong is bashing our heads against the wall again to make us “think” and program our minds to think that it was ratified.  Kong doesn’t like not getting fed.  You see if The Fed doesn’t get their Income Taxes in interest, they will refuse to acquiesce to any financial request from King Kong.  And, King Kong doesn’t like being hungry; for one thing if King Kong stops giving out “free stuff” to the rest of the people in the vault, he won’t be able to pacify them and he is afraid they will all gather together and gang up on him and return him to the size of a Chimp.

The good news:  As horrible as it is going to be for several years, after the NECESSARY collapse of “The Matrix”, probably about five or six years of hardship (sort of a lesson period from God for letting Kong legislate Constitutionally contemptuous legislation leading to him being way over fed), once we put the Constitutional clamps back on Kong, our hard work and blessings from God, along with the advanced knowledge of man unleashed through the power of individual wealth generating freedom will result in the recreation of individual prosperity, liberty and a new dawn in the power of individual man and especially our God over government.  A new renaissance where the creation and knowledge of man, through the realization that God is above any Government, Kong or private banking company, will come just as the beauty of spring with new leaves, blossoms and fresh blue horizons are revealed through the first light of dawn is certainly before us.  God is only waiting for us to take care of our individual adult like responsibility to gather, learn and unite, in freedom, to enforce The Constitution upon the monster who we let loose, Kong.

Let’s get to work people.  Sooner or later we are going to have to face the music for our individual irresponsibility of making sure Kong behaved in accordance with The Constitution, in that we face the blessed collapse of “The Matrix”; so let’s get this done!  Postponing the collapse of “The Matrix” will only make far worse and extend the agony and, really, our punishment from God for letting Kong, The Fed, and the immoral on Wall Street create wealth out of blasphemous Kong sucking thin air in our vault. Speak of bad breath!  This Matrix is really starting to stink to high heaven.  And God isn’t appreciating it.  He is waiting for us to choose him or Kong.  Either way, “The Matrix” is going down.  The Liberty Tree Lantern suggests we choose God.

Besides if we chose God, individual wealth and prosperity will follow.  IF we do not choose God and the animated contest of freedom, we face taxation up the wing Wang and the end of all Freedom and our rights.   The Matrix will end, either way, but one way we will be individually prosperous and free, the other way we will have a one world super Kong Socialist / Fascist Government where we live in the equal distribution of misery in poverty with no where to run to protect our rights, our earnings, our private property or our liberty.  If we choose this path or simply let Kong do what he wants, and he gorges himself with Federal Reserve printed wealth out of thin air and he gets so big he takes over the world, he will be smashing our heads all over the place, with The Fed controlling him with a remote control and plenty of gross immoral profit for themselves and their banker and corporate cronies, may God help us!

This is a time for choosing; God or Kong?  We have a date with destiny.

Activist urges Americans not to pay until grievances addressed

By Jon Dougherty
© 2009 WorldNetDaily.com

Drawing on what he says is historical precedence, a noted tax-reform activist claims Americans should not pay taxes to the federal government until it addresses a series of “grievances,” one of which concerns questions about the legality of the income tax.Bob Schulz, founder of constitutional education organization We The People and planner of numerous tax-reform protests, says while government has a right to levy taxes, Washington is not entitled to them before addressing the people’s angst.

“The founding fathers, in an act of the Continental Congress in 1774, said, ‘If money is wanted by rulers who have in any manner oppressed the people, [the people] may retain [their money] until their grievances are redressed, and thus peaceably procure relief, without trusting to despised petitions or disturbing the public tranquility,’” Schulz said in a speech Nov. 14 at the National Mall in Washington, D.C.

“This very American right of redress of grievances before taxes is deeply embedded in our law,” he said. “The founding fathers could hardly have used words more clear when they declared, ‘The people … may retain [their money] until their grievances are [remedied].’”

Schulz was addressing supporters of his “Freedom Drive 2002,” an event sponsored by We The People to demand the government respond to a number of petitions, including questions about the income tax, WorldNetDaily reported Oct. 23.

The group served four separate petitions on all 535 members of Congress and President Bush Nov. 8. The petitions, Schulz said, sought “a redress of grievances” regarding the income tax, the USA Patriot Act, the War Powers Act and the Federal Reserve.

While unclear of the final numbers, Schulz told WorldNetDaily WTP gathered “about 14,000″ signatures. All of them, including the petitions themselves, were burned onto CDs. Each legislator, senator and the White House got a copy.

The event actually kicked off a month earlier, on Oct. 7, when the petitions were posted on WTP’s website. The following month, a caravan of supporters left from the West Coast and began to drive east to the nation’s capital, picking up supporters along the way. Information on WTP’s website said 460 people participated in the caravan.

The founders “knew that it was possible for the institutions of the Congress, the executive and the courts to someday begin to fail in their duty to protect the people from tyranny,” and they “knew that unless the people had the right to withhold their money from the government their grievances might fall on deaf ears and liberty would give way to tyranny, despotism and involuntary servitude,” Schulz said in his speech.

No members of Congress, government officials or White House representatives were present at the rally, Schulz said.

The Freedom Drive event capped off more than three years of tax-reform and other kinds of constitutional activism by Schulz. In July 2001, he ended a 20-day hunger strike after IRS and Justice Department officials agreed to meet with him, ostensibly to answer dozens of his questions regarding the legality of the income tax. U.S. officials later reneged on that agreement.

In February, Schulz and WTP held a “Tax Honesty” forum in Washington, hosting several expert tax attorneys and former IRS officials, all of whom “testified” that the income tax was illegal, improperly levied and burdensome to Americans.

Asked what WTP planned next, Schulz was cryptic.

“We need to put the government on notice that until these grievances are addressed, if [Washington] moves against one of us, [it] moves against all of us,” he told WorldNetDaily.

He said WTP plans to set up a “massive” legal defense fund and put together materials explaining why employers should stop deducting employee tax contributions.

“Money should be withheld until the grievances are addressed,” he said, adding that full details of WTP’s next plan would be published on its website “soon.”

And then some people wonder why our economy, in the United States, has gone to hell.  Nobody understands why there isn’t enough money in our economy to go around?  And, so The Federal Reserve cranks up the printing presses, to print more monopoly money, and then people wonder why our economy is self destructing?

Aren’t you happy that your paycheck will have more “Federal Withholding” next year so that your Congressmen can use your money for not only all the bailouts to huge Banks and Corporations, but also the UN Millennium Project, to the point that you only are “allowed” to keep 20 – 30% or so of your earnings?  Isn’t it special that our Government is going to take this money out of our checks before they even get to us?

Is this what you call freedom?  Don’t you see what the U.S. Congress is doing to us?

Where in the hell does it say in The Constitution that the U.S. Government is allowed to steal our earnings, right out of our paychecks before we even receive them, and give our money to other countries and people?

If you don’t want to go completely broke, you better stand up and do something about it.  Now they are giving our money away, not only to Big Bankers and Corporations, but now also to countries and people all over the world.  Now is that income transfer or is that income transfer?  Wow, Isn’t that special?

Is it just possible that this is just another part of the Trilateral Commissions progression of the One World Government concept, via UN in merger with the U.S., that they have planned for us?

The time to say; “Well what can we do about it?” like a bunch of mind numbed sheeple is coming to an end, unless you want to work your arses off, for the rest of your lives, and keep almost NOTHING of the fruits of your labor.  Our Government is going to be taking all our earnings away from us in the near future to pay for all of the bailouts, the UN Millennium Project, Social Security and Medicare ($90 Trillion Dollars in UNFUNDED debt, over the infinite horizon, alone).  And, yet we do nothing?

If you do decide that you do want to do something about you and/or your family going broke, than read the other articles on this blog that give all sorts of actions that you can personally do.  And, continue to read this blog, so that I can help you to know what our enemy of the Constitution, the U.S. Congress, is doing to us.  It is time we hold them accountable to the LAW as written in The Constitution.

BTW:  I thought we submitted a Declaration of Independence?  If so, why are we, the free, forced to bow down and pay homage to the likes of the UN?

Here is the Mall, there are the sheeple, look!  Here comes Obama to screw all the American people.  Obama is the Senate sponsor of the U.S. commitment to the UN Millennium Project.  Isn’t that special?

The Liberty Tree Lantern readers know that sooner or later, perhaps next week, or for sure in less than five years, our entire financial system, which is akin to “The Matrix” like in the movie, because it only exists in our minds; in that the dollars that we have been using to pay for things have been nothing but FEDERAL RESERVE “NOTES” for decades, will utterly collapse.  Dollars have not been real “money” for any of our lives.  Therefore we have not been paid for our labors and we have not yet paid for anything.  The largest private corporation in the world, The Federal Reserve, prints Dollars out of nothing more and paper and ink, with very little in hard assets in the vault to back up the NOTES.  Notes, as you must be aware, are nothing but the promise to pay with”REAL” money at some date in the future. In this case “The Fed” doesn’t tell us when we can redeem our notes for “real” money that has true value.  The dollar is worth little more than regular monopoly money.  Our minds have been programmed by the public schools and the main stream media, which is controlled by The Trilateral Commission – which was founded by the 40 private owners of The Federal Reserve company, particularly David Rockefeller with the assistance of Zbigniew Brzezinski, yes the guy who is one of Obama’s chief advisers. 

Isn’t it special that Obama has Federal Reserve and Trilateral Commission members right in his staff?  At least we know where our money is going to go!  To the banks and big corporations who are “well connected” to The “Fed”.!    Yeah!     That’’s CHANGE we can go broke with!  Sure, the U.S. Government, the IRS can take our paychecks in massively INCREASED “Federal Withholding”, FICA, FUTA, Payroll taxes and Medicare taxes, before we even touch our checks and we can keep the CHANGE.  Change to the loss of prosperity and far worse, our freedom.  What will we do without OUR FREEDOM? 

Individual FREEDOM from Government interference and robbing of our earnings in taxation is what makes individual prosperity.  Freedom means “self government” where Government is beholding to us individually and united, under “Natural Law” and not the goofy laws that the “elitists” place on us which take freedom away and destroy our economy.

“The Matrix” which is the FAKE economy supported by FAKE money called FEDERAL RESERVE “NOTES” that is nothing more than monopoly money has to collapse and we must suffer the consequences for not taking care of our INDIVIDUAL responsibility to educate ourselves and our children about the very meaning of “freedom” , that it is protected by The Constitution, and learn the reasons for every provision in The Constitution.  Like, for example, the apportionment clause that states that all direct taxes shall be apportioned.  The reason the Founders wrote this provision in the law placed upon Government was so that the Federal Government wouldn’t have the money or the power to do anymore than that allowed in the “enumerated” powers listed in The Constitution.  In this way Government would only be 1/5th the size it is today, at best.  The Government wouldn’t be able to collect income taxes over the long term because it wouldn’t be politically feasible.  This was done to make sure that our Government wouldn’t get so big that they SUCK the LIFE BLOOD out of our economy and financially suffocate us out of our jobs and personal wealth and property by tempting us with “SOCIALIST” programs that “look” like “free stuff”, such as “Government money”  (but the Government doesn’t have any money but from us or borrowed from The Fed that is repaid by us and dearly!) for things like hospitals, schools, Social Security, Medicare when these things could have been paid for out of the economy and our personal wealth more directly through our State and local governments as meant by our Founding Fathers and God; And, as was before 1913.  Additionally “The Fed”, the LARGEST PRIVATE COMPANY in the world, wouldn’t be able to control our lives and our Government like they do today.

 Socialism and the redistribution of wealth, stealing from some to give to others, has not worked in the history of the world.  Socialism always results in the equal distribution of poverty.  This is not what a true American wants.  We want to create the environment where as many people can be individually wealthy as possible.  This goal can only be reached in a “real” economy and real FREEDOM.

The collapse of “The Matrix” is a very good thing and a blessing, despite the horrible financial hardship we all are going to have to bear.  Only through the collapse of “The Matrix” our false economy that only exists in our minds, will we we be truly free.  Free from government but under the laws of God “Natural Law” to protect us from the “Madoffs” of the world, enforced by our State Governments which are supposed to be, according to the 10th Amendment and other provisions in The Constitution, huge, powerful and have their own armies and “private” citizen militia’s which are necessary to a “free”, from government, State and the reason and purpose of the “Second” Amendment. 

Why are the State governments supposed to be huge?  Because We The People can march right into our State Capitols and read the riot act right to our Assemblymans’ faces and tell them to go to hell.  That’s why!  Try that at the Federal level at Capitol Hill, you will be sitting in jail so fast it would make your head spin like Linda Blair.  Our Founders know that We The People would have more “personal” and individual power at the State level.  They also knew that if the American public knew that they could have “personal” impact on their laws and, therefore, their lives they would be more engaged.  Something that the tyrants in the U.S. Congress are happy they really don’t have to deal with very much.  They can do to us whatever they want.  Believe it or not they can even steal $700 Billion Dollars out of our paychecks, before we even see them, in “withholding”, and give our money to Big rich Bankers and The Federal Reserve company.  And, they can take $25 Billion more of our earnings and give our money to huge corporate Automakers and the UAWs so that they can be richer than the vast majority of us.  The entire purchase price of the big three automakers is about $9 Billion Dollars, but our Government stole $25 Billion Dollars from our paychecks so that forklift drivers could make as much as $103,000.00 per year plus have Cadillac health care benefits and other benefits that most Americans can only dream of.  Isn’t that special?

When are the American people going to understand that our Government is the enemy?  When are all of our people going to understand that it is the direct result of our Government passing unconstitutional laws and otherwise doing unconstitutional things and, therefore, causing the unconstitutional size and cost of Government sucking our money out of our economy and out of our pockets that has caused the financial crisis and the economic collapse?  And, when are we, as a people, going to stand up to our economic, freedom and constituional destroying enemy and their masters, The Federal Reserve company?
