The Federal Reserve controls the money and on the word of the Fed Americans suffer as does the world. Could money controlled by the Fed could be keystone?

The FED is only one privately held central bank among many, although the strongest. Money is merely a tool manipulated by people. . . and an imaginary one.

Modern money is created out of the air. It is worth something only so long as you and I and everyone else believes it has value, otherwise it's worth nothing, zip, nada, just so much rag paper. . . or even worse magnetic domain entries on a computer that can be erased with the stroke of a key or the passage of a strong magnetic field.

They prefer to maintain the illusion of value, but I don't think that belief is actually necessary as long as the US military is willing to kill any person and destroy any nation willing to say $$$ out of thin air isn't worth the paper its printed on.

Qaddafi made the mistake of mentioning a gold backed currency and the next thing you know there was good old Hellary standing there cackling over his dead body.
