Scene. Around 2040. Senator Gore, Jr, Royal Barge being pulled up the Potomac to the vast family estate.

Bargeman puller; "I remember my parents telling me of the times before the permante national emergency. Sounded real nice"
2nd Barge puller; "I just wish my parents hadn't sold me to the Gore family for money for oats. But, we were starving."

When the Fed Res “purchases,” it does so by either calling in debts. This contracts the money supply and slows down the economy. They did this in the late 1920’s, after massively increasing the money supply. I think you know what that led to.

The other way they “purchase” is to print new money. Since our money has no precious-metal backing, it is only as valuable as people consider it to be. The more they print, the less value each dollar has, the more prices go up. Since their stated goal is to increase liquidity in the economy, this must be their method.

For a few months now I've suspected that the goal is to ruin the US dollar in order to push for a UN Ministry of Economic Management and a global currency through the World Bank.

This combined with everything else that is happening is, unfortunately, serving as further evidence that my worst fears are coming true.

If someone can prove me otherwise, please do. Please!

It's just 'Helicopter Ben' Bernanke making good on his promise from a few years back.

As to where the money comes from? Of course, we all know that the Federal Reserve is a private bank that has the right to issue our currency. All they do is make an accounting entry to create dollars (debit cash, credit equity) that they then use to buy U.S. Treasuries and collect interest from you, your children and your children's children ad infinitum.

This is why the Constitution mandated 'gold and silver coin' as money. Not that anyone pays any attention to such an antiquated document anymore. Think fiat (which is a currency backed by noting, i.e., the U.S. dollar) inflation wasn't known in the 1700s? Think again...

That 300 billion is being printed as we speak. Never fear. You will see the return of the $1000.00 bill before long.

Where from? Why the Govt is just charging it to its credit cards.
