• Anatomy of a falling "dollar parity" ...........61

    stone from which they fashioned their mediums of exchange, the great round stones with the hole in them, that looked like wheels. Possession of these objects today yet is recognized as possessions of wealth. They were and are tangible, took labor to produce and had exchange value.

    To understand how wealth is obtained and where it comes from requires some reasoning, Salt in the ocean is not wealth, but once human labor and capital is applied, the salt extracted and brought to the market in saleable form, it is wealth. Coal in the ground is not wealth-in the market place it is wealth, because human labor brought it there, it is tangible and it can be burned to provide heat, thereby satisfying a human desire for heat.

    By my own reasoning then paper is also wealth, it is tangible, it is produced by human exertion, and it can satisfy human desire, as a medium to write upon etc., it has exchange value. But paper in quantity enough as a product to exchange for an automobile would fill the truck needed to haul it to the market place, and if this were done it would be a wealth for wealth exchange. But when paper in the form of currency is used in the market place in small quantity to trade for wealth (products) many thousands of times the wealth value of the paper being used, then the paper tokens are "Imaginary demand" and only our ignorance of the ominous condition we are perpetrating and our confidence in the system, issuing this paper keeps us doing it.

    Only when we use wealth in one form, to represent by legal tender laws wealth of many thousand times greater in other forms, are we creating a "false medium of exchange" called money," (imaginary demand).

    This is exactly the case when the laws say we must accept 100 copper pennies as having the relative value in exchange as 1 / 35th of an ounce of gold. In a free market the traders would decide from day to day the relative value of copper and gold by the natural law of competitive bidding.

    It is the introduction of "money" into the economic system that immediately starts the process that eventually leads to a recognizable inflationary result (falling "dollar parity), Now we understand why currency (coins and bills) even though being wealth themselves, when given values many thousand times greater, by legal tender laws become ''money tokens" and that the introduction of "money" into the economic system is the "creation" of the "Imbalance" of imaginary demand vs production (real demand).

    We have concerned ourselves thus far with "dollars" inscribed as being redeemable in "lawful money'' at the Treasury or any federal reserve bank, and while we still had coins with silver content it was possible to get a portion of your wealth back. You could turn in ''dollars" and get silver coins minus the seigniorage and although the gold redemption had been denied we still had silver certificates in the purchasing media volume.

    Our banker directed, government, decided they wanted all the wealth, so they gradually started reducing the promissary wording on the federal reserve notes. In 1963, they issued the federal reserve notes totally devoid of any promise to redeem. The silver certificates were all called in and a date set beyond which none would be honored at the fed or at the bank, (for silver that is). The bankers through government, as much as cold us it is not worth anything anymore, we won t give you anything for it, but it is still legal tender and 'all' you must use it and accept it in payment of all debts public and private. Total Fiat: It was no longer redeemable in wealth by those with whom we deposited our wealth, for safe keeping, it was now declared by the bankers through government that the tokens were the wealth itself that replaced the wealth we had deposited, (they wanted the real stuff, we could have the phony).

    The day had finally arrived, all the wealth we once owned and used as a medium of exchange had been taken away and we were left with paper and base metal tokens, and as a result a constantly falling ever decelerating "dollar parity." We have failing "dollar failing "dollar parity", and more failing ''dollar parity" and nothing they try seems to help the situation, of course not, and now we know why nothing works--money" is "Inflation."

     

    "Money" The Greatest Hoax On Earth ....................62

    So far we have only concerned ourselves with "dollars" represented by tokens (coins and bills) made of base metal and paper, but they represent only approximately 5% of the money volume" used daily in the conduct of business.

    95% of the every day medium of exchange does not exist in any token form, it exists in our minds only and we keep records of it with paper and ink in check books and ledgers!

    NINETY FIVE PERCENT OF THE EVERY DAY MEDIUM OF EXCHANGE DOES NOT EXIST IN ANY TOKEN FORM, IT EXISTS IN OUR MINDS ONLY, AND WE KEEP RECORDS OF IT WITH PAPER AND INK IN CHECK BOOKS AND LEDGERS!

    When they take metal and paper tokens and assign fabulous values to them and in so doing create token "dollars" they enter the economy by being borrowed from the banker, and then are passed about via direct exchanges-money for products for money, we cannot perceive of the fact we are using "imaginary demand." Each individual labors to receive his "dollars," and so he expects to be able to purchase the products of others with those "dollars." When in daily business we take in more "money" than we care to have on hand we take it to the bank and make a deposit. The deposit is recorded on the books, of the bank, and paper records we keep- We can transfer a claim against these "money" deposits by writing a check as a written order to transfer all or a portion and use the check as a medium of exchange in direct exchanges. When we receive a check from someone In payment" of a debt, we accept it on faith and confidence that it will be honored. The faith and confidence is there because we have laws that penalize anyone for writing bad checks.

    We receive checks from employers for our services. The employer receives checks from his customers when they purchase his goods. These checks are mediums of exchange received in direct exchanges for goods and services (wealth)-but in themselves the checks are only claims against the production of others until we actually redeem those claims for those products. When we deposit our paycheck in the bank, we know it was what we received for our labor, and as such in our "minds" we endow the paper and the resulting credit entry on the books of the bank with a value proportionate to that labor. So when we write a check against that deposit entry we really believe that we are transferring wealth with it, when in reality we are only transferring a claim against marks in a book whose only value rests on confidence and faith.

    We have come a long way from the days when we received pay envelope containing wealth. We have come from an era of over many years when we transacted our business with wealth which we held and owned, and was tangible and visible, to an era today where the only wealth we can see is the clothes on our backs, and our physical possessions, if they are fully paid for.

    Some among us cling desperately to the belief that this all came about by some real stupid moves on the part of some well intentioned people and our elected officials, and I might be tempted to entertain that thought IF somewhere along the way they would have made one error in OUR favor.

    No it wasn't all foolish mistakes it was deliberate, as we move along you will begin to realize this.

    Now that 95% of all the "money" used is in our minds, counterfeiting can be exercised at no cost to those authorized to do I don't have to prove that, any study of the literature available, from the Fed itself on itself will explain the Act of Congress that gave the Fed complete freedom to create and take tide to as much "money" as they want, and we the people must accept their imaginary debt "dollars."

    Chapter XXI

  • Why a "Name"?

  • Why a name?................63

    People paid taxes in wealth media, so many coins of gold or silver. Government constantly desires more wealth from the people. Only people produce wealth for government to dispense wealth it must first be taken from the people! People eventually rebel against ''too high" taxes. Government seeks other means of obtaining wealth from its citizens. Rumors are spread amongst the people that there is counterfeiting of the coin and the government must protect the people from the counterfeiters. Government takes over the minting of the coin and assigns a name to a government guaranteed fixed quantity of specified purity precious metal coin. Gradually the population becomes weaned from the use of its former terminology of-twenty bushels of wheat equal 1 ounce of gold or I ounce of gold = I pig. Instead, they become accustomed to using the new terminology, I bushel of wheat = $1.75 or I pig is worth $35,00. At first government supports the mint with tax receipts and coining is free to citizens-you bring in your gold or silver and the mint returns bright new coinage of full weight and fineness. Later on, government passes a law specifying a new weight and fineness for its "dollar," which is now the same weight as before but only ninety percent of its former purity, on the pretext that it is still worth the same in trade as before because the precious metal content and the labor to produce it add up to its former value. The government further explains that now the people who are get. ting the benefit of the mint are paying the cost of minting directly, instead of all the people through taxation. Of course the Treasury now is fattened by ten percent of the value of all the coinage minted. The mint is now a profit-making organization. People realize that the older coinage has a greater gold content and it disappears from circulation; melted by government and saved by citizens. The process whereby the older coins are removed from circulation by the people because of their higher purity is known as "Gresham's Law."

    The production by government of coinage that has less bullion content than formerly for the same face value" is known as "debasing" the coinage.

    Government's right to take from the coinage the difference between its bullion content and face value is known as "seigniorage."

    At this early stage is where money (credit and inflation) is first created. A pure coin with bullion content equal to its face value is "supply" or "demand" by use or viewpoint. The Pure coin as a medium of exchange can demand its face value in goods, or be melted down and be the supply for that exact amount.

    A token coin with bullion content less than face value demand when melted down would be unable to be full supply for its face value. The difference between its "supply" and "demand" "exchange values" in a token is money - (credit)-(inflation).

    It is "money" because it is a psychologically created medium of exchange; it does not exist as a material thing. That part of the token which is "supply value" is "wealth," the rest is ''make-believe." It is "credit" because anyone exchanging wealth for a "token" is receiving less wealth in return, and must wait until he passes the token to get back the difference.

    It is "inflation" because the "demand" (face value) in excess of "supply" (bullion worth) causes its parity in relation to commodities to fall. The basic creation of inflation is the creation of money (credit). Money created in any form and "issued" into circulation perpetrates the expropriation of the receiver's wealth.

    Government creates bonds to expropriate the people's wealth without their knowledge!

    In 1971 the expropriation of wealth from the people in just the minting of copper-nickel coinage alone was 540 million dollars. We have progressed from "free coinage" with gold and silver coins in circulation to the present time where the material and labor involved in minting our "coinage" are less than 5% of its "face value"

    The great robbery taking place due to the issuance of token "coinage" is completely hidden to the public because they cannot help but accept the tokens of wealth as the wealth itself, and this is brought about by giving a same to a fixed quantity of specified purity precious metal coin.

    "Dollar": Formerly a name to describe a temporarily fixed amount of gold.

    "Dollar," today: An expression of measure to facilitate cross reference between wealth and money (credit) (inflation); for the purpose of expropriation of the people's wealth without their knowledge.

    Many voices throughout our country are in agreement today that in the federal reserve system, fractional reserve banking is the root cause of our "inflation" and related difficulties.

    The purpose of this writing is not to disagree with that conclusion in any way.

    Many voices are in agreement that in the federal reserve system, fractional reserve banking should be taken over by Congress and run for the benefit of the people.

    With this suggested solution this writing disagrees.

    Our nation's difficulties are due to the fractional reserve system, and it would not matter who operated same, our difficulties would continue. What must be observed is that inflation is the "dollar" and that imaginary demand vs. supply (dollars vs. wealth) is exactly what "fractional reserve" is all about.

    When our citizens could at any time enter a bank and demand "specie" payment (gold or silver coin) for their dollars, they were in fact actually checking the amount of spread between the dollars (imaginary demand) in- circulation and the specie (wealth) held in reserve for their redemption. Specie was in fact the "wealth" the "dollar" tokens were imagined to represent. The dollar tokens could always be exchanged for specie (wealth) at the point of issue (banking system). The issuance of dollars could not exceed, by more than ten times, the amount of specie held for their redemption, or it became evident and the banking system collapsed.

    Because the operators of the system wished to exceed the "ten times" barrier, it was necessary for the redemption privilege to be removed, first the gold coin in 1933, and then the silver coin in 1965. Specie redemption was no more!

    The removal of all redemption privilege "from the issuer" left them (the operators) free to expand, expand, and continue to expand the dollar volume without any discipline whatever, or any way for the people to check the volume of inflation being created.

    When we the people write a check we must have the necessary "credit" on deposit to

    cover" our check. Dollars issued and nonredeemable are in effect "bad checks" that circulate and are exchanged for wealth by the people amongst themselves, but are never discovered to be "bad checks" because the "clearing house" (redemption window) is closed; they can circulate almost forever with no one the wiser.

     

    "Money" The Greatest Hoax On Earth ..............................66

    It is this condition that has led to the belief of many people that if the system survived to date on just the "people's faith" in dollars, it can go on forever. It would appear that it has "worked" without any "side effects" so far, but this is not true. Nonredeemable dollars are loaned into circulation and convey to the issuer the vested title to the wealth that is pledged as collateral, and is purchased outright with the interest income.

    As the total dollars created accumulates, the vested title to the wealth they "expropriate'' accumulates to the ''issuer" and the "wealth producers" are left with a tremendous accumulation of depreciating and eventually worthless paper.

    At the present time the accumulated title to wealth vested in the dollar creators is greater than the entire worth of the United States. Inflation and its related difficulties will not be eliminated until we return to a redeemable currency, and the people's right to test that redemption, with demands for redemption in specie. Since it was the removal of the privilege of specie redemption that allowed the situation to deteriorate to its present condition, it is quite evident that only a return to the privilege of specie redemption can be a cure.

    Sound banking existed in the past and it could function again in the future without any fractional reserve "Inflation" or related wide-spread over-extension. We the people have to make good" our checks, why not the bankers on theirs? By restoring the people's right to trade in sound "specie" (wealth media), the old nonredeemable dollars would suffer natural depreciation and eventual total discount.

    The situation is far too grave now for sudden deflation or repel The total of the FED, collapse of the monetary unit that would follow that action would create-chaos. It would be much wiser to allow gradual return to sanity and monetary integrity by a slower process of the natural application of Gresham's Law and the eventual elimination of the non-convertible dollar by having wealth media competing with it in the economy.

    As of now the Fed "buys" U. S. Treasury Bonds with created deposit credits. The Fed ''buys" U. S. currency (coins and bills) with created imaginary debt "dollars'' as a medium of exchange.

    It does not cost the Fed anything to create a "deposit credit," therefore the Fed gets coin and bills (currency) at no cost to itself and lends its created credit at interest. All interest it receives is all Profit at all times.

    All expenses of the Fed are paid with created deposit credits which are "free" to the Creator. The Fed's expenses are all expropriated from the people: All created credit converted to bills and coins expropriates wealth when exchanged. All created credit is pure inflation per se. Credit creators do not produce wealth and never redeem their creation for wealth. All credit is wealth expropriating, and is functional only because people accept it.

    A deposit credit must be created before it can be a demand for currency and become interest bearing -therefore all Fed currency in circulation is ''earning 11 interest for the Fed.

    For "everyone'.' to pay interest, "more" deposit credits must be created to facilitate the issue of currency that is to be the interest payment.

    "New" borrowing "to pay interest" becomes "principal" itself "at interest" and the system is "self perpetuating."

    There isn't any way to stop the system until the legal tender laws are abolished, and the people can again insist on 'specie' payment of debt.

    ECONOMIC FUNCTION OF MONEY

     

    Trapped .........................69

    The main economic function of money is the expropriation of wealth. People produce goods and services. Banker creates money. People must use money. Money created draws interest. Money loans must be repaid plus interest. Interest is a money charge for the use of money. Only the banker creator creates money. Money borrowed to pay interest becomes principal. Borrowing to pay interest increases debt. Increasing debt, increases interest due. Increasing interest due, increases debt. Debt compounds until the bankers stop creating. No more creation, no more interest payments can be made. No more interest payments, bankers foreclose. Bankers collect all the wealth. People are left with all the paper and ink.

    Chapter XXV

    ENGINEERED ILLIQUIDITY

    With the banks able to circulate their created dollars and lend them out at interest, they were in a position to manipulate the economy of the nation. Lending newly created dollars into the economy was creating "Imaginary demand" for goods and services. It caused greater need for labor to produce the goods (supply); but the initial effect would always be a decrease in the dollar's parity In relation to commodities, the first indicator of "inflation."

    "Inflation": Disproportionate and relatively sharp and sudden increase in the quantity of money or credit, or both, relative to goods available for purchases. Inflation always produces a rise in the price level." Webster.

    If creating and lending fiat dollars could cause a -boom,- then it- must hold that withdrawing those dollars could cause a "bust"!

    "Interest'' was the gimmick; when a bank lends dollars it always demands that the borrower "return" more than he borrowed. As long as the banker continued to create his money and lend it out people could continue to pay the "interest" on their loans. The money borrowed to pay "interest" was the "principal" of another loan and as such also demanded "Interest"; the system perpetuates itself.

    To create a "liquidity crisis" and "panic" all the banker had to do was turn off his credit machine." The flow of newly created dollars ''cut off" and the loan payments and interest coming due, people would have to return to the banker "all" the dollars he had created plus other dollars he had not created "as interest."

    This sudden drop in "liquidity" (imaginary demand) would lower competitive bidding for supply which lowers the need for labor causing unemployment, and a "rising dollar parity." This condition being the exact opposite of "Inflation" is called "deflation."

    "Deflation": Disproportionate and -relatively sharp and sudden decrease in the quantity of money or credit, or both, relative to the amount of goods available for purchase. Deflation produces a fall in the general price level." Webster.

    The banker-engineered "deflation" was perfect for his purpose. The bankers wanted the exclusive" right to issue "money" which of course would increase their already incredible power." To get this "exclusive" right to issue "money," they had to discredit gold, destroy the people's belief in it. People had been accepting the bankers' created "money" in exchange for gold and they believed gold was a form of "money" also.

  •  

    "Money" The Greatest Hoax On Earth .........................................70

    With the banker's bills out of circulation (due to the engineered liquidity crisis") much of the gold coin having passed to the bankers as interest, it was easy for the banker to convince the people that there wasn't enough gold media to keep the economy progressing that what was needed was a system whereby the banks would create and control the issue of the nation's money in whatever quantities were required to keep the economy healthy.

    Another purpose of the engineered liquidity crisis: "Panic," besides helping to brainwash the people into demanding monetary reform, was that during the resulting deflation, banks were able to foreclose on homes of the unemployed, business properties where failures had occurred, and also the banks could take advantage of the rising dollar parity to pick up corporate bargains.

    Through the use of "Interest," banks are able to create "boom" or "bust" situations in our economy. With their created dollars they are able to purchase our products and pay for our labor at no cost to them. They create "money" but do not produce goods. They never redeem it with wealth they created (they don't produce any). We exchange their creation amongst ourselves when we exchange dollars for wealth at the bank (prior to 1933) we were receiving another producer's deposited wealth not the bank's.

    In 1910 the banks were finally successful and the people were demanding "monetary reform."

    In 1913 we got it! The passage of the federal reserve act, established a United States central bank" and also the sixteenth amendment to the constitution-" income tax''!

    Jenkins Ostrichism: An ability of the human brain to pass into the subconscious that knowledge, which present in the conscious mind would be unpleasant; basically. The belief in the human mind that, knowledge ignored, does not exist, and cannot harm anyone.

    A good example is the Federal Reserve System as Monetary Reform. The old system of 'banking broke down when it practiced fractional reserve and was exposed by private Gresham’s Law.

    By creating a central bank, Gresham's Law was neutralized within its larger sphere of influence, and therefore the fractional reserve system would not be exposed, we would not see it, and therefore it could not harm us.

    Another good example is the fact that you cannot pay back to an only source more than you obtain from it. Accepting a concept of deficit spending which is ever expanding debt, we pay the "Interest" and assume that if we ignore the principal it can expand forever and not harm us.

    "The very fact is, that every central bank is aware of the fact that there are more dollar claims on gold at $35.00 per ounce in existence than there is gold in existence. They all know they have to eventually put the loss on the books, but as long as they keep ignoring it, it hasn't hurt them yet!

    Then there are S.D.R.'s (special drawing rights). The I.M.F. members actually agreed to create a record on their books of account, of each member country having a proportionate share of a mythical gold deposit that would be represented by those entries on paper (paper gold'). A member country would be able to settle currency deficit balance claims with another member by obtaining their currency as a charge against Its paper gold credit. As fantastic as this is It is a perfect example of believing that If we wish hard enough wishing will make it so; or if we ignore completely the impossibility of this working it may work, and until we admit the damage, it hasn't hurt us.

    If half the effort that is applied to believing the unbelievable was directed into the perpetuation of reality, there would not be any height to which humanity could not progress.

    Faith is wonderful, and all powerful, a gift of nature to man.

    Ostrichism is an unrecognized, extremely dangerous exercise.

     

  • The invisible government .............................71

    CHAPTER XXVI

    THE INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT

    Throughout this text repeated reference to expropriation of wealth has been made. The accompanying diagram has been constructed with the least amount of complexity. The diagram will make it easy to see the total scope of the process.

    Box "A" represents the source of wealth, the people and their daily labor to produce wealth.

    Box "B" represents the government or more specifically the Treasury of the United States.

    Box "C" represents the Federal Reserve System with all its member banks as one integral central bank.

    Box "D" represents the expropriation process whereby "money" created by the Fed is exchanged for the wealth of the people.

    Box "E" represents the ultimate receivers and holders of the expropriated wealth, that group of Super Stockholders of the stock of the member banks, which in turn are the stockholders of the federal reserve system. They own the fed and through it control the government of the United States, for all practical purposes they own it also.

    Looking at point A-I of block "A" the source of wealth this could be a human who worked for his paycheck, his labor produced goods which the employer will sell, rent or in some way pass on for a profit. The employee who furnished the labor is paid with a checknot-wealthnot even a claim on wealth per se a check which is a claim on the employer's account at a bank. The employee's labor aided in the production of wealth but he receives as his share a piece of paper. The employee must take or send that piece of paper (check) to a bank, and either deposit it in his checking account or exchange it for "money" ("dollars") produced at point C-1 block "C".

    At this point in time he still feels that "dollars" are wealth because he knows he worked to earn them and his labor is valuable. If he immediately purchases tangible goods with the "dollars" then that will be the first part of the wealth he had earned, that he has seen. When all of the "dollars" have been spent, he has received all of his share of wealth for the wealth his labor produced. If he saved some of the "dollars" and did not spend them all right away, then, he will be vulnerable to all the things that can happen to "dollars" in a money" system, deflation, devaluation and falling "dollar parity."

    The "dollars" that he did spend-will eventually find their way back to the creator via direct payments of principal and interest (through block "A" directly to "C"), or via the taxes route (through block ' "A" to "B" and on to "C").

    Looking at point A-2 block "A" same wealth-same source the wealth of the government, is the wealth of the people, the government uses the wealth of the people as collateral for its credit. At point B-1 the treasury creates bonds, and by selling the bonds to the Fed receives in return deposit credits in its checking account.

    The government checks written and issued point B-2 to people for their goods and services arrive at the bank, in the same way the payroll check did. Eventually the Fed issues "dollars" to people for their government checks in direct exchange or through deposit-withdrawal procedures. These "dollars" when spent will eventually arrive back at the point of creation, through the same routes, from "A" directly to "C" or via the taxes route, "A" to "B" to "C".

    The government creates bonds and gets credit deposits for them.

    The public when it wishes to borrow must pledge wealth directly to the bank to receive "dollars" A-1 to "C". All "money" must come from the Fed system it is the only legal source of "dollars." All "dollars" from the Fed is "Imaginary debt" government, corporate or private, borrowed into use under legal tender laws. All "dollars" from the Fed are borrowed at interest, you must pay back all that you have borrowed-plus interest.

     

    "Money" The Greatest Hoax On Earth.........................72

    Assume the interest charge is 6%, All that you borrowed is 10096 plus interest at 6% you must pay back 106% of what you borrowed-THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE! The Fed is the only source it cannot be paid back more than it issued! We are trapped, the chart shows this very clearly, It is impossible to pay back more than is received from the only source.

    This is an impossible situation with only one course to follow we must pay the interest, and just let the principal accumulate.

    So as long as the system remains it exacts an ever increasing amount of interest (you have to keep increasing the principal to pay the interest) it feeds on itself and grows larger.

    Since the principal is always covered by collateral or bonds, the interest is free and clear income to the bankers. There are some people that believe the member banks pay some income taxes, but a quick glance at the chart will show what happens to taxes collected by the government, (they go back to the bank eventually as payments of principal and interest. This total tax free interest income from the government debt alone is $20 billion a year. On the total national debt, Government, corporate and private the interest alone is over $ 120 billion annually. If you have ever wondered why you never see a shabby bank, perhaps this explains it.

    The tremendous gain of lending at high interest that which costs you nothing to create, allows banks to accumulate riches unimaginable. Just as in any business the real income accumulation goes to the director -stockholders that manipulate their income producer, to produce the maximum gain. They take the interest income and buy up the wealth of the world. The bankers know the "dollars" are worthless so they exchange them for vast quantities of tangible possessions.

    In the Federal Reserve System there are over 4500 banks under federal charters, and over 1800 state chartered banks that are members, and a total of 14,000 controlled directly. There are so many stockholders of these corporations and the chain of command is so sophisticated, that a nucleus of less than a dozen family's absolutely possess all this wealth extracted from the wealth producing public in the land they manage and regulate.

    The circulation of "money" and its implied thought, that it all just circulates, that we use it over and over-very neatly conceals its main function, (the expropriation of wealth).

    The circulation system of "money" exchanges, corporation to individual, and individual to bank and then, from bank to corporation again is essential to their purpose. It is perfectly efficient as an expropriation of wealth machinery, the wealth is extracted neatly and no one ever even surmises that it is going on. It would collapse in a very short time if we all refused to use it.

    If it were possible to educate the people, and if it were possible to go back to wealth media, the extraction of wealth would cease, and our nation would again resume its progress toward ever greater individual standards of living. That is why they outlawed gold and silver coins, they are wealth media. That is why they melted our old silver coins and sold the silver at auction. They don't want us to use wealth media, if we use wealth media, we own our wealth and our elected officials become the servants of the people. The public would regain the power to direct the policies of their government.

    Others may ask why can't American citizens own gold. I know why, and so do you now.

    Just think of all the income taxes you would not have to pay if you did not use money --there are no income taxes on capital gains until they are sold for ''money".

    Wealth expropriation destroys incentive and some people will settle for subsistence on welfare. Reduction of the work force reduces production.

    Reduction of production due to an increase in expropriation.

    Reduction of production due to an increase in the money volume.

    Less production plus increased money volume increases dollar volume bid per unit of production.

    Increased dollar volume bid per unit of production = falling dollar parity.

    Falling dollar parity increases cost of production.

    Increased costs of production equals less production per dollar.

    Less production per dollar equals falling dollar parity.

    Falling dollar parity perpetuates a falling dollar parity.

    Falling dollar parity causes loss of confidence in dollars.

    People purge themselves of dollars for things of value (wealth).

    People begin to trade with wealth in "under-ground" free markets.

    Using wealth media doesn't require the use of money (dollars).

    Money not in ''use" does not control.

    Money authority loses control.

  • Therefore:

  • The monetary authority "gains" control over people and government by the creation of money. The monetary authority 'maintains" control by the people's acceptance of, and confidence in money (dollars). The monetary authority "loses'' control by the creation of too much money (dollars). People free to trade with wealth, control their government and enjoy freedom. Loss of the right to trade in wealth (gold and silver coin etc.) enslaves people to the monetary authority.

    HANDLING THE TRUTH WRECKLESSLY

    We have been told that where "money" is concerned, we owe it to ourselves, yet foreigners hold some I 10 billion "dollars." Who owes them? We have been told, from time to time, that we have a surplus in the balance of payments on the "official settlements" basis when all that means is that we are in surplus if we don't count the "dollars held" unless they are held by officials. Private foreigner's holdings are not counted.

    "Broadly the U.S. registers a payment deficit when foreigners acquire more dollars than they return in all transactions. But although the U.S. lately has been incurring massive deficits on the "overall" basis, it has been in surplus on the "official settlements" measure, which disregards the dollars acquired by private interests abroad and counts only those accumulating in official hands abroad" ...........W.Sj. September 24, 1969

    We are told we have gold at Fort Knox, and at the stabilization fund and some on deposit in vaults under the Chase Manhattan Bank. We are told that 371,428,571.423 ounces under the Chase Manhattan Bank is on deposit there by foreign central banks. We are told we have 285,714,285.714 ounces and are left to believe, if we want to, that it is owned by the people of the United States. We are not told that 6,514,285.698 ounces of it is owned by the I.M.F.. and is only loaned to us to hold so we can say that we have it. We are not told that the I.M.F. holds U.S. treasury securities for 22,857,136.000 ounces of gold which is a first claim on "our" gold.

    . . . . .. In addition to its regular gold stock of $2.3 billion, the I.M.F. has $800 million of gold temporarily invested in U.S. treasury securities, plus $228 million on 11 special deposit" in the U.S. and $41.4 million in the United Kingdom, a practice that allows those two countries to simultaneously count the gold so deposited in their own stocks . .

  • W.Sj. September 24, 1969

  • Whatever gold stored here in the U.S. that is not owned by foreign holders of 'first claims' on it, is owned by "our" own 'Monetary Authority' a private corporation that creates "dollars" (the treasury only orders the printing and minting of the tokens we use to represent the created numbers we call "dollars'') which may be and are generally accepted by the people as being the "money stock":

    .... the total amount of base outstanding at any time is principally determined by the U.S. gold stock and the amount of U.S. government securities owned by the federal reserve system. . . Page 4 St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank Review Aug. 1972

    All U.S. "dollars" today are based on imaginary debt. The Monetary Authority creates "dollars'' by writing numbers in a book:

    "The net monetary liabilities of the monetary authorities are held either as currency in the hands of the public or as commercial bank reserves and can be viewed as the base" for the nation's money stock. . . . . . Page 3 St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank review Aug. 1972

    We are told that it is far more practical to allow a monetary authority to create "dollars" and distribute them into our economy much the same as poker chips in a poker game. That as long as they are managed well it is far more efficient than the old system of only issuing paper with redemption guaranteed in the "barbaric" metal gold. Our old system guaranteed redemption in gold-even in a poker game you must buy the chips and they are redeemed later. However, the Monetary authority feels that removing the redemption requirement facilitates 'greater efficiency' and 'control', only they never told us their controls didn't work. In fact using the 'monetary liabilities' of the monetary authority as a base for the money stock; every time the monetary authority 'buys' anything for itself it goes into debt and since 'debt' is the base for the money stock the money volume increases. It works out that by using debt as the basis for money (the system is called the monetization of debt) the more the monetary authority spends the more money they have.

    Whenever the Federal Reserve buys securities on the open market for its own account the monetary base increases . . . ...

    Page 4 St. Louis Federal Reserve Review Aug. 1972 "Particularly because the Nixon economists stress the money supply, Mr. McCracken commented, it is - perhaps not being excessively bold to suggest that there is apparently as much uncertainty about where we have been as where we ought to be going. .....W.Sj.

    "Money" The Greatest Hoax On Earth...................76

    This is quite a dilemma 'the more they spend the note they have it surely suggests a good reason to believe that the 'money volume' cannot be' controlled', and sure enough the Fed knows about that:

    . . . when a central bank actually tries to control the money supply, those relationships which theory and empirical analysis suggest are stable turn out to be operationally unstable. This, of course means that a central bank that sets out to control the money supply would find that it cannot. . . "

    Page 23 St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank Review Aug. 71

    There is a big difference between having the power to regulate interest rates and reserve requirements, and being able to control the money volume. Although we have been influenced to believe they are in "control" they themselves know better, so they are satisfied to just create an 'aura' of stability!

    . . . . since the chief sphere of central bankers is obviously the financial markets, their chief stabilization targets are obviously financial variables, and since the most immediate visible signs of financial change are prices of financial assets, central bankers tend especially to be fascinated with controlling interest rates and exchange rates to present an aura of stability in financial markets. . . .

Sprague, a director of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., is only the latest bank regulatory official to express dissatisfaction with the setup he helps administer .... the federal regulatory machinery has been put together so haphazardly that its fairly surprising that it runs at all . . . .Editor W.Sj. October 10, 1969

    "Our" government chartered a private corporation to use imaginary debt as a base for money stock instead of using some tangible wealth and bearer certificates to maintain 'sanity' and 'control' automatically by natural law. Congress also gave that private corporation regulating powers such as reserve requirement 'control' (regulation D.) and interest 'control' (regulation Q.). The Federal Reserve may believe the government gave it the Power to control' but in reality the government did not have the 'power' to bestow 'power to control'. The power to control is vested in the natural laws of economics.

    ALL THE GOVERNMENT BESTOWED ON THE FEDERAL RESERVE WAS THE AUTHORITY, IT IS UP TO THE ‘FED’ TO MAKE MAN'S LAW SUPERCEDE NATURAL LAW: .... on the one side are interest rates which are price measures. On the other side are the monetary aggregates. We have already seen that central banks strive, for a compromise between the two, but both guides cannot be followed at the same time. If a central bank attempts to control interest rates, it must allow money supply to fluctuate. if it controls money supply, it must allow interest rates to fluctuate. . . . P25 St. Louis 'Fed' review August 1971

    Since it cannot control the money supply and since they do not want this to become common knowledge or to ever be fully understood they perpetrate all kinds of bookkeeping gimmickry to hide the truth and confuse the people:

    .... but the Johnson administration arranged to mask the impact on its statistics by having the I.M.F. make a "special deposit" of a like amount of gold in the U.S., thus both the I.M.F. and the treasury count the same gold as their own. Mr. Nixon's financial aides are "Interested" In something of the same sort, an insider says, but he describes the topic as sensitive because it conflicts with the general disdain of bookkeeping "gimmickry". ..................Richard F. Janssen. W.S.J. September 29, 1969

     

    Handling the truth recklessly .................77

    The monetary authorities have managed to overcome their 'disdain' for bookkeeping gimmickry'' and are going full speed on obscurantism as witnessed by the views they have concerning their own personnel:

    "Those individuals who rise in central banks are people who can impress other people that they can keep their heads no matter what-and no matter whether it is true or not." Page 24 St. Louis 'Fed' Review August 1971

    .... the most absurd aspect of the whole situation is that Washington’ s interest rate manipulators still seem unable to recognize just how ridiculous it really is . . . .editor WS.J. October 22, 1969

    Monetary authorities are particularly adept at obscurantism. The French devaluation of 12 1/2% was announced on August 8, 1969 but:.... the secret of devaluation was well kept. Giscard D'estaing said the decision was made July 16th, but "from that moment until tonight only eight persons in France knew of it." A/P St. Louis Globe Democrat Saturday August 9, 1969

    This may explain why we are told that the "economic laws" are not working the way they did in the past. Anything the public will believe seems to be what it will be told without regard for honesty or integrity. The officials cover themselves with the "thin blanket'' of knowing they have not lied. All they are really guilty of, in their eyes, is obscurantism; which has been accomplished by simply omitting details. When we are informed of the 'public' money volume, most of us are unaware of 'what' the monetary authorities consider to be the 'public money volume' (M-1):

    "Public is any person or institution other than a monetary I authority or a commercial bank. This means that currency held by commercial banks, the U.S. Treasury, or Federal Reserve Banks, and demand deposits owned by the U.S. Treasury (government deposits) or commercial banks (interbank deposits) are excluded from the money stock." Page 2 St. Louis 'Fed' review August 1972

    ARE WE BEING LIED TO OR NOT WHEN:

    1. We are told the G.N.P. (gross national product) backs the "dollar" but all "dollar" devaluations are with respect to 'real metal gold' or imaginary gold (S.D.R.)?

    2. We are told we are the richest nation in the world, but we cannot pay as we go?

    3. We are told we are the richest nation in the world but we owe more gold than any other country on earth?

    INVISIBLE FORCE

    The formation of a central bank primarily is to circumvent Gresham's Law, and it would tend to indicate that if it were possible for the banking system to become world-wide (issuing a world-wide unit of currency standard) Gresham's Law would be abolished for all time. The new unit of currency standard, accepted world-wide would allow the expropriation of wealth to continue indefinitely and unimpeded.

    For those who can be objective and apply logic and reason I will introduce my law: "Conspiracy to expropriate wealth with money assures the eventual death of the conspiracy.

    As any creator of any medium, the creators of the local currency unit claim ownership of the thing created: As the currency must be accepted and used by the citizens, it must pass into their possession. The creator lends it into circulation. In so doing it must be observed, it is always "for" some form of wealth, thus the condition "expropriation." As the creating central banks acquire the wealth, they of course gain title, they own it. It is then evident as the "money" volume constantly increases, so does the title to the wealth of the world increase, in the names of the creating system's membership of central bank conspirators.

    At present it would be impossible to determine accurately the percentage of ownership of the world's wealth, the title of which rests in the hands of the money creators; at any rate it is considerable, and getting greater all the time. At some time in the future, a condition will be reached where most humans will consider it foolish to work for nothing, and quit.

    Banking conspirators will own almost all of the means of production, and we will be back to the slavery system of the dark ages. Each central bank of its nation will control its nation's government, and control all means of production and distribution. All this is based on a membership in conspiracy, united with a common cause to expropriate all the wealth of the people. Through the use of this common unit of currency standard agreed upon by them as a unit of measure of wealth although not redeemable in that wealth. When the people have been reduced to working only for subsistence, the expropriators will have to look elsewhere for any further accumulation of individual wealth, and it is certain they will turn to the plunder of each other.

    The systematic plunder of the peoples of the world was accomplished by using the ignorance of the people concerning money against them. The paper tokens they issued were always referred to, by them, as being as good as gold; and since settling balances of trade in gold had been the old system, settling them in the new medium (S.D.R.s) (proposed) denominated in gold would be sufficient without actually shipping the metal at all.

    The degree of cooperation they used to extend the system far beyond the time it should have collapsed is evidence that they themselves were not fully aware of the nature of wealth and money. True knowledge of the nature of wealth in respect to money would never allow anyone in his right mind to ever consider any "token" AS GOOD AS gold. Any physical thing we have been in the habit of calling "money" (that was not wealth itself) was a token. "

     

    Invisible force ......................79

    Money exists only in the "mind" of man. Money itself does not exist anywhere as "matter" in the universe. Money does not occupy space. Money cannot be seen, felt or weighed. We have been provided with "tokens" and told they are "money" and that they are as good as gold because we could "buy" things with them. Bills and "coins" of extremely low "wealth content" denominated in terms of money are tokens, and when used in the economic exchanges of the world are equivalent to the use of matchsticks or chips in a poker game.

    The front page of the Wall Street journal for Friday, Sept. 24, 197 1, carried an in footnote: "A pre- international monetary fund seminar of eminent economists couldn't agree on what "money" is or how banks create it."

    Money does not exist physically, banks do not physically create it. Banks create "credit," and that created credit (dollars) given a vehicle in the form of tokens, to facilitate physical transactions in the market place, and add to the illusion they are wealth. When we refer to coins and bills of low wealth content (in relation to their "face value") as tokens of wealth we are in error, they are representative of dollars (credit). For them to be tokens of wealth they would have to be redeemable in some form of wealth accurately inscribed as to commodity, weight, and fineness. When wealth is exchanged for wealth it is a final transaction. When wealth is exchanged for a token of credit, credit has been extended, or someone has been robbed. By calling credit "money," and by calling wealth in the form of precious metal coins "money" for over 1000 years, the respective values of each have been "blended" in the mind of man so that he no longer knows the difference. The blending process was so cleverly engineered, and so successful that it is carried on today.

    Money is most often referred to as merely a "medium of exchange." Bills, coins, checks, and many, any other things have been employed as mediums of exchange. To effect an exchange it is necessary to involve two or more commodities, just as a transaction must involve two or more people. With at least two commodities involved there must be at least one parity. The parity would depend on mutual agreement, and no matter what the exchange was (eggs for milk-bread for butter-gold for furniture, silk for fish-etc.), it would be barter, as long as wealth was exchanged for wealth directly and the wealth form received was the wealth form desired.

    Competitive bidding is the term to use to explain the means by which the relative quantity of one commodity is mutually agreed upon between transacting parties to be equivalent to that quantity of the other commodity. This relationship is called the parity between them. Since determination in any exchange of which commodity is "supply" and which is "demand" must depend on "viewpoint" alone, we must conclude that where wealth is concerned it is always both 100% supply as well as 100% demand.

    Precious metal coins with weight and fineness stamped upon them, their integrity protected by government, are wealth mediums of exchange which provide a very useful service in the economy. Instead of having to establish parities for all commodities into all other commodities it is only necessary for traders to determine one parity for each commodity into quantity of the precious metal coinage. Precious metal coinage becomes the standard commodity, and exchanges are effected simply and with ease. This system worked for many, many years, and inflation is impossible where only wealth mediums of exchange are used.

    The banking system in order to infiltrate this orderly self-governing, free market, free enterprise system had to create a deviation. The deviation was to give a name to a specific quantity of precious metal coinage, the name was "dollar." With a coin of specific weight and fineness of precious metal, and called a "dollar,'' it was necessary for all commodities to have their parities into the precious metal, and then from that Into dollars. But people seek to satisfy their desires with the least amount of effort so all commodities just seemed to acquire parities Into the "dollar" directly, with no thought given that the dollar and its parity into a specific quantity of precious metal could ever change. With commodity-dollar parities established it was simple then for the authorities to gradually declare changes in the kind and amounts of metal that "made up" an official "dollar."

     

    "Money" The Greatest Hoax On Earth.....................80

    As long as the "dollars" (precious metal coins) were the original full weight and fineness of the precious metal, all seemed in- order. When the bullion content is 100% supply and 100% demand, it is 100% wealth. When the bullion content of a dollar coinage is reduced, a very significant thing happens, and invisible forces of money (credit and inflation) are born.

    A coin of 100% wealth stands ready at anytime to be melted down for jewelry, dentistry, electrical duty, etc., because it is 100% real demand and supply at the same time, whether used as a medium of exchange or for use or consumption. A 90% fineness coin is 90% supply per se and 100% demand (face value), the 1096 imaginary demand it represents over the 90% supply it is, is "money" (credit and inflation). Anyone accepting the coin at its "face" value is being 10% robbed, without recourse on the creator of the coin. The only recourse the new hold of the coin has, is to pass it on to someone else, in a later exchange, and in so doing the robbery is repeated, and perpetuated.

    In creating coins of lower bullion value than face value (seigniorage: Webster: A prerogative of government) and lending them into circulation, the creator is perpetrating the expropriation of wealth. The difference, called "seigniorage'' by Webster, and called money (credit and inflation) here, leads to the understanding that: "The main economic function of money is the expropriation of wealth."

    A wealth medium of exchange disciplines the market and prevents inflation. Anything used as a medium of exchange in the market place in lieu of wealth is inflation, and perpetuates the expropriation of wealth. Since the main economic function of money is the expropriation of wealth, the more money created, the greater the theft. The creators of the nonwealth mediums of exchange are acquiring the ownership of the world. At the present time the creators are creating mediums of exchange of paper and of imagination (credit marks in a book"), and in such tremendous quantities the producers of the wealth to be stolen cannot keep pace, and runaway failing dollar parity in inevitable.

    When only wealth media are used, 100% of production can exchange with 100% of media, or conversely, 100% of supply can exchange with 100% of real demand; when media are created out of nothing, an imbalance at first is unnoticeable because the volume of production absorbs the media that are imaginary demand, not real demand, and after a considerable time lag, it causes a general falling dollar parity. The falling dollar parity is the result of existence of nonwealth media, but is wrongly supposed by Webster, Friedman et al., to be caused by an excess of media over supply. Since wealth itself is ' simultaneously supply and demand, it is imperative. that we see it is the "existence" of nonwealth media that is inflation itself, a very, very significant and important distinction.

    The imbalance, so easily absorbed in the beginning, continues to grow and grows at an extremely greater rate of acceleration than the normal growth of the gross national product. As time passes, the relentless creation of nonwealth media catches up with the G.N.P. and passes it by in respective dollar volume. At this time the best evaluation of the volume of created media (both tokens) and marks in a book (credit) in relation to annually produced goods is five to one.

    Wealth media generated originally from the excess of production over consumption of the producers, and were generally maintained in the form of gold and silver coin. After serving as media of exchange many times over, they were still present and available to continue in that capacity, or at any time to be supply for consumption if the need arose.

    With the creation of nonwealth media from nothing the wealth media gradually rose in value and were withdrawn from use as media of exchange, until now all we have are nonwealth media. With wealth media, only-the excess of production over consumption could remain as a medium of exchange and accumulate. With nonwealth media, created out of (continue)
