system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated

in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of

the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled

government of free opinion, no longer a government by

conviction and vote of the majority, but a government

by the opinion and duress of small groups of dominant

men."

-- President Woodrow Wilson

becomes widely understood and the defects remedied

very soon."

020.60 per thousand notes -- a little over 2 cents

each -- without regard to the face value of the note.

Federal Reserve Notes, incidently, are the only type

of currency now produced for circulation. They are

printed exclusively by the Treasury's Bureau of

Engraving and Printing, and the $20.60 per thousand

500, 1000, 5000, and 10,000 denominations were last

-- Charles A. Lindbergh Sr., 1923

a flood of irredeemable paper currency."

-- Henry Cabot Lodge Sr., 1913

"When you or I write a check there must be sufficient

Reserve writes a check, it is creating money."

-- Putting it simply, Boston Federal Reserve Bank

"There is a distinction between a 'debt discharged'

and a debt 'paid'. When discharged, the debt still

exists though divested of it's charter as a legal

obligation during the operation of the discharge,

something of the original vitality of the debt

continues to exist, which may be transferred, even

though the transferee takes it subject to it's

disability incident to the discharge."

-- Stanek vs. White, 172 Minn.390, 215 N.W. 784

"I have never seen more Senators express discontent

with their jobs.... I think the major cause is that,

deep down in our hearts, we have been accomplices in

doing something terrible and unforgiveable to our

wonderful country. Deep down in our heart, we know

that we have given our children a legacy of

bankruptcy. We have defrauded our country to get

ourselves elected."

-- John Danforth (R-Mo)

"Capital must protect itself in every way...Debts must

be collected and loans and mortgages foreclosed as

soon as possible. When through a process of law the

common people have lost their homes, they will be more

tractable and more easily governed by the strong arm

of the law applied by the central power of leading

financiers. People without homes will not quarrel with

their leaders. This is well known among our principal

men now engaged in forming an imperialism of

capitalism to govern the world. By dividing the people

we can get them to expend their energies in fighting

over questions of no importance to us except as

teachers of the common herd."

-- Taken from the Civil Servants' Year Book, "The

Organizer" January 1934

repeats from "Founding Father's Quotes" / Information

tends to converge)

"I believe that banking institutions are more

dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.

Already they have raised up a monied aristocracy that

has set the government at defiance. The issuing power

(of money) should be taken away from the banks and

restored to the people to whom it properly belongs."

-- Thomas Jefferson

"If Congress has the right [it doesn't] to issue paper

"History records that the money changers have used

every form of abuse, intrigue, deceit, and violent

means possible to maintain their control over

governments by controlling money and it's issuance."
