Introduction:
The Federal Reserve and the modern banking system have intricate connections to historical and occult organizations, tracing back to the Knight Templars. Understanding this evolution reveals how money bills evolved into debt notes, perpetuating economic disparity.
Origins of Banking: The Knight Templars:
- Historical Context: The Knight Templars, a medieval Christian military order, developed early banking systems by offering financial services, such as loans and letters of credit.
- Transformation: Originally an occult branch of the Pope’s army, the Templars’ financial acumen laid the groundwork for modern banking. Their influence continued through organizations like the Knights of Malta and Freemasonry.
Transition to Modern Banking:
- Post-Templar Era: After the disbanding of the Templars, their banking practices were absorbed and evolved by European families and secret societies.
- Families Involved: Prominent families such as the Rothschilds, Morgans, and various royal families took control of the banking systems, centralizing power and influence over global finances.
- William Cooper: “The secret rulers of the world use fiat money to create endless debt, controlling nations and people.”
- Jordan Maxwell: “Money is a tool of control; it’s about power, not prosperity.”
Establishment of the Federal Reserve:
- Creation: The Federal Reserve was established in 1913 as the central banking system of the United States, controlling the money supply and interest rates.
- Influence: Key figures from powerful banking families, like J.P. Morgan and Paul Warburg, played significant roles in its creation, further entrenching their influence over the U.S. economy.
Money as Debt Notes:
- Debt Notes: Modern money is essentially a promissory note or debt obligation. When you hold a dollar bill, it represents a promise to pay, not actual wealth.
- Historical Context: During the gold standard era, currency was backed by gold reserves. After the abolition of the gold standard, money became a tool for debt issuance.
- Example: A $100 bill is technically a Federal Reserve Note, a liability of the Federal Reserve and an IOU from the government.
Inflation and Economic Manipulation:
- Money Creation: Banks and governments can create money digitally, adding more currency into circulation. This process is often referred to as “printing money,” though it typically involves adding digits in banking computers.
- Inflation: Increasing the money supply without a corresponding increase in goods and services leads to inflation. Prices rise because more money is chasing the same amount of goods.
- Depressions: Overproduction of money can also lead to economic depressions. Excessive debt accumulation and financial bubbles result in economic crashes when debts cannot be repaid.
- Example: The 2008 financial crisis was triggered by excessive lending and the creation of complex financial products that increased the money supply without real backing.
Transition from Gold Standard to Fiat Currency:
- Gold Standard: Until 1971, the U.S. dollar was backed by gold, meaning that each dollar could theoretically be exchanged for a specific amount of gold. This system provided stability and limited the government’s ability to print money.
- Fiat Currency: After 1971, the dollar became a fiat currency, backed by the government’s promise rather than physical commodities. This shift allowed for greater flexibility in monetary policy but also increased the potential for inflation and economic manipulation.
- Digital Currency: The future of money is moving towards digital currencies, with many countries exploring the possibility of banning cash. Digital currencies, controlled by central banks, could provide unprecedented control over individual transactions and economic activity, further exacerbating economic inequality.
A Rigged System:
The banking system is designed to benefit the wealthy:
- Wealth Concentration: Banks lend money created out of nothing, charging interest on it. The interest payments transfer wealth from borrowers to banks.
- Economic Inequality: The rich can leverage assets to borrow more and invest, increasing their wealth. The poor, meanwhile, face higher interest rates and struggle to repay debts.
Quotes and Historical Events:
- Thomas Jefferson: “I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.”
- The Great Depression: Triggered by a stock market crash, it was exacerbated by bank failures and the contraction of the money supply.
- 2008 Financial Crisis: Resulted from the collapse of the housing bubble, driven by loose credit and speculative lending.
- William Cooper: “The secret rulers of the world use fiat money to create endless debt, controlling nations and people.”
- Jordan Maxwell: “Money is a tool of control; it’s about power, not prosperity.”
Conclusion:
The Federal Reserve and modern banking systems, rooted in historical practices by the Knight Templars, operate on the principle of debt issuance. This system creates economic disparities, leading to inflation and depressions that disproportionately affect the poor. Understanding this rigged system is crucial for advocating for fairer economic policies.
