How much of history over the last 100+ years has been over artificial financial crises? How much conspiracy between them to fix deals? Makes the SEC look like a joke. RICO anyone? Giuliani put down the mafia in NYC, why not the deep state families who own the 12 Reserve banks?
Looking at the Federal Reserve, if was created on December 23, 1914 as part of the Federal Reserve Act after a series of 'financial crises' led to the desire for a central currency.
The Federal Reserve Act created a system of private and public entities. There were to be at least eight and no more than twelve private regional Federal Reserve banks. Twelve were established, and each had various branches, a board of directors, and district boundaries. The Federal Reserve Board, consisting of seven members, was created as the governing body of the Fed. Each member is appointed by the President of the U.S and confirmed by the U.S. Senate.
The Federal Reserve Act authorized a national currency - the federal reserve note. It also delegated and continues to delegate the power to create our money to the private banks that comprise the Federal Reserve System. They increase the money supply via issuing private interest bearing debt. Lots of room for abuse there.
Looking at past speculative bubbles, the burst always seems to start when the general public stats to jump in. Who gets fleeced? And who is the hero of the day when it's addressed?
I'm seeing ads for people to get onboard investing apps with as little as $5. I'm speculating the next fleecing was planned but interrupted with Trump's election.
Going way down the hole I wonder if a good way for the UN to take global control would be to simultaneously cause a major multi-participant war and financial crisis?

Oops typo. 1913, not 1914 sorry.
-- On out of the box thinking could Keystone be the Pipeline? --Think bigger.
Maybe Keystone is an allegory for all energy transmission, but I think bigger than that even.
Keystone for all commercial activity (and societies) is MONEY. Where does MONEY come from? Who creates it?
Later in the same thread, " At any rate, in the context of this thread, I was just opining that "keystone" is a reference to the Federal Reserve / Treasury."
Great post - we don’t think about the fed enough here, largely because they’re so secretive, but they could well be the key, the keystone if you will.
Worthy points, imho.

I wish we could get all of our archived threads back. Somewhere between 98 and 00 there was a thread that showed what appeared to be a cfr/trilat paper that talked about deficit spending/borrowing from China not being a problem because the plan was to crash the economy and let inflation soar to Weimar levels then pay the Chinese back with those dollars. The paper did not go into this but I remember at the time that this was believed by some to be in the run up to the Amero or a form of global currency.
