“In Debt We
Have Trusted,” For over 300 years
What is money:
Where does money come from?
Paul Grignon's 47-minute animated presentation of "Money as
Debt" tells in very simple and effective graphic terms what
money is and how it is being created.
“In Debt We
Have Trusted,”For over 300 years
By Jim Kirwan
After decades of
searching for the lynch-pin that literally holds
everything about this corrupted world together; this
morning brought an answer in a Forty-seven minute
video. It asks a seemingly very simple question:
Where Does Money Come
From?
The answer is equally
simple but devastatingly obvious, once the players and
their rules are clarified.
This also tangentially
explains just how it is that the Corporatocracy and the
Banks continue to demand that “growth must always
increase” – every hour, every day, every year and every
decade. This is impossible because under the laws of
nature nothing can go up forever—and yet that is exactly
what our entire monetary system is based on—along with
its shadow partner—the ever-expanding debt of
individuals, companies, corporations, and especially
governments.
One explanation of how such
a flawed design could ever hope to work is quoted in the
video: “In the child’s game of musical chairs, so long
as the music continues—no one loses.” This is what was
being threatened on the markets all last week—the music
was about to stop; because credit-everywhere was drying
up.
Most people work and live
in a world of tangible labor; thinking that the reward
for that labor is as real as the sweat of their efforts
to obtain it. But the answer to ‘Where Does Money Come
From’ shreds that cloak of secrecy that has hidden this
shell-game from the general public for centuries.
Brasscheck said the
following in introducing this video:
“What do Presidents John
F. Kennedy, James Garfield and Abraham Lincoln, and
Congressman Louis McFadden all have in common?
They all believed in the necessity of dismantling what
has evolved into what is now known as the Federal
Reserve Banking System ("The Fed")
They were unique in that they all had the understanding
and power to act on their beliefs, but never got the
chance to because they were assassinated before got the
chance.
What's the big deal about the Fed? For starters, it's
not, contrary to
popular belief, a part of the government. It's privately
owned...which means the United States does not control
its own money supply. Strange but true.
The Fed was created around the same time that the US
adopted such charming practices as taxing the income of
working people
and conscripting its citizens against their will to
fight and die in overseas
wars. Who really rules America? It's not who you think.”
Bankers have always been
publicly seen as solid, no-nonsense guardians of growth
and prosperity in many countries. In truth it turns out
they are mostly fraudulent tricksters performing feats
of pure fantasy that make them rich to the direct degree
that they succeed in undermining nature, while
destroying economies and most forms of general
prosperity—along with the global security of the planet.
These are the same people that have elevated ‘money’ to
its currently outrageous position over everything else
in life.
The history clearly shows
that the international bankers were behind both World
Wars: They financed both sides before during and after:
including the especially lucrative and destabilizing
re-construction that altered the equations for global
trade in the post-war period. The World Bank and the
International Monetary Fund (IMF) were also the tools
used to destroy the few remaining independent nations
after WWII. Those were previously self-sustaining states
that were forced, though ‘loans,’ to become single
product exporting nations, at the expense of their
former ability to sustain themselves.
This made them vulnerable
to monetary shifts in global trade, and virtually
enslaved those people in a global-system that did not
serve to keep them alive. The latest additions to these
crimes were and are all the international trade
agreements that began in Europe and have now spread to
this hemisphere. However, at least in Latin America
there is finally a real public resistance to this
takeover of so much of the world’s natural resources and
the people that once owned them.
Of course the so-called
“War-on-Terror” is only the Middle-Eastern form for
doing what was done to so many other nations around the
world—and because its resources are oil and water, the
banks methods have become far more violent. Religion,
politics and Armageddon along with race-hatred, and
shear terror have are all being used now to bolster the
mandatory levels of fear that are needed to keep this
open-ended war burning - forever: Or until these same
central banks that seek control over all the resources
of that region are victorious – whichever comes first.
No one in these
institutions seems to have factored in what will really
happen, to those resources or to the planet, due to the
methods being used and the nuclear contamination of so
much territory – after the bullets and bombs have ceased
to rain on what’s left of those people.
Instead, as
the film points out, the goal seems to be to simply own
all the money and all the goods—with no real thought of
what that will mean to those of us from whom everything
will have been taken. What good will the money or the
power be – when virtually nothing is created with it?
The money in itself is completely worthless—it’s not
backed up by anything except more worthless paper.
Without the creation of goods and services, there is no
“growth,” and without the means to obtain what we need
to live—there can be no economy and hence no life!
Our national balance of
trade is negative, because when we speak of “trade” we
are referring to all those imports that are coming in
from all those outsourced ‘American’ companies overseas.
The USA has become nothing more than a dumping ground
for junk and poisoned food, made in China and elsewhere
by US affiliated companies that escaped US regulations
and taxes, while reaping obscene profits at the expense
of American workers and customers.
The latest chapter in this
nightmare is called the North American Union (NAU) that
is slated to be completed by 2010. This would combine
Canada, Mexico and the United States into a single
military, economic and trade block: as a new entity in
the world. This concoction would open the door for the
bankers to extend credit to a whole new population of
the poor and as yet uninitiated –it would also dissolve
the USA as a nation. The currency for this new obscenity
will be the “Amero.” There is a meeting being held on
this subject, next week—be sure to demand coverage from
whatever media you have!
“Next week, on August 20 and
21, Stephen Harper, George Bush and Mexican President
Felipe Calderon will spend a couple of days quietly
sequestered at a hotel in Montebello, Quebec, a location
that will not be open to the public or the press. No
cameras will be permitted inside and public discussion
of what takes place in those meetings will be tightly
controlled and managed by the three leaders.
While camped out at the Chateau Montebello, a luxury
hotel in Quebec, the three will discuss what is being
called the “Security and Prosperity Partnership” or SPP.
While SPP is officially being spun as little more than
an opportunity for the three amigos to discuss security
and prosperity many critics are calling the SPP a case
of NAFTA (The North American Free Trade Agreement) on
steroids. SPP was initiated in March 2005 at a summit of
the Canadian, US, and Mexican leaders.
The SPP exists only as a verbal entity and is not found
in any official treaty or identified in any government
legislation. Instead SPP is based on private discussions
between the leaders themselves and closed door meetings
with big business, lobbyists and political insiders.
From the Canadian perspective, the SPP is a means of
completely overhauling Canadian business, military and
social programs without having to adhere to normal
democratic processes or contend with unwanted public
scrutiny.
Since none of what is discussed or agreed upon during
SPP meetings is ever reflected in official documents the
public has no idea what is being done behind the scenes
and no opportunity to have a say in the nation’s future.
A future which, if SPP proponents like Stephen Harper
have their way, will see Canada suffer massive job
losses and lead to the destruction of the of social
programs and benefits we all depend on.
One of these secret meetings took place in Sept 2006 in
Banff Springs, Alberta. When asked by the media if he
was in attendance Public Safety Minister, Stockwell Day
refused to confirm or deny his attendance. He instead
said that “if he was there” it was a "private" meeting
that he would not comment on.
"No item - not Canadian water, Mexican oil, or American
anti-dumping laws - "is off the table"; rather,
contentious or intractable issues will simply require
more time to ripen politically."
- Leaked Minutes of a 2004 meeting of the Task Force on
the Future of North America
The North American
Competitiveness Council, (NACC) was launched as part of
the SPP program in June 2006. It is the only known
advisory group to the SPP and the only “tangible”
component of the SPP itself.
The NACC is made up of 30 powerful, hand picked and
influential corporate leaders from the three nations
along with a few “special” advisors. According to recent
reports the minutes of a January 10, 2006 “Dialogue on
the Security and Prosperity Partnership” meeting reveal
that the NACC was created to "engage substantively and
pragmatically on trade and security issues without undue
deference to political sensitivities."

The clock is ticking and we must demand answers to these
basic questions from this so-called government that
supposedly serves us. This government needs to learn the
hard way to fear its people, just as people should
remember that government is only there to serve the
public and not to enslave us!
