...And you are the victim.
The Federal Reserve and Income Tax is a scam. Don't take my word for it. Here's what some of the nations most revered political figures,
historians, presidents, and businessmen have to say about it:
"A tyrant is always stirring up some war or other, in order that the people may require a leader." - Plato, “The Republic”
"All the perplexities, confusions, and distresses in America arise, not from defects in the Constitution or confederation, not from want of honor or
virtue, as much as from downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit, and circulation." - John Quincy Adams
"As a result of the war, corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country
will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands, and the Republic is
destroyed. I feel at this moment more anxiety for the safety of my country than ever before, even in the midst of war. God grant that my suspicions
may prove groundless." - Abraham Lincoln, from a November 21, 1864 letter to Colonel William F. Elkins
“Banks create credit. It is a mistake to suppose that bank credit is created to any extent by the payment of money into the banks. A loan made by
a bank is a clear addition to the amount of money in the community.” - Encyclopedia Britannica, 14th Edition
“Banking was conceived in iniquity and born in sin. Bankers own the Earth. Take it away from them but leave them the power to create money, and,
with the flick of a pen, they will create enough money to buy it back again. Take this great power away from them and all great fortunes like mine
will disappear (he was said to be the second richest man in Britain) and they ought to disappear, for then this would be a better and happier world to
live in. But, if you want to continue to be the slave of the bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, then let the bankers continue to create
money and control credit." - Sir Josiah Stamp, President, Bank of England
"But if in the pursuit of the means we should unfortunately stumble again on unfunded paper money or any similar species of fraud, we shall assuredly
give a fatal stab to our national credit in its infancy. Paper money will invariably operate in the body of politics as spirit liquors on the human
body. They prey on the vitals and ultimately destroy them. Paper money has had the effect in your state that it will ever have, to ruin commerce,
oppress the honest, and open the door to every species of fraud and injustice." - George Washington
"By this means government may secretly and unobserved, confiscate the wealth of the people, and not one man in a million will detect the theft." -
Lord John Maynard Keynes, “Economic Consequences of Peace”
“Capital must protect itself in every way. Debts must be collected, mortgages foreclosed as rapidly as possible. When through the process of law
the common people lose their homes, they will become more docile and more easily governed through the strong arm of government applied by a central
power of wealth under leading financiers. People without homes will not quarrel with their leaders. This is well known among our principal men now
engaged in forming an imperialism of capitalism to govern the world. By dividing the people we can get them to expend their energies in fighting over
questions of no importance to us except as teachers of the common herd. It is thus by discreet action we can secure for ourselves that which has been
so well planned and so successfully accomplished.” - U.S. Banker's Association Magazine, 1924
“Compound interest is the 8th wonder of the world.” - Albert Einstein
“Congress shall have the power to coin money and regulate the value thereof.” - Article 1 of the U.S. Constitution.
Congressman Patman: "Mr. Eccles, how did you get the money to buy those two billions of government securities?" Eccles: "We created it."
Patman: "Out of what?" Eccles: "Out of the right to issue credit money." - Testimony of Marriner Eccles, Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board,
before the House Banking and Currency Committee, 1941
"Every circulating Federal Reserve Note represents in actuality a one dollar debt to the Federal Reserve system." - Money Facts, House Banking and
Currency Committee
"Every Congressman, every Senator knows precisely what causes inflation...but can't, won't support the drastic reforms to repeal of the Federal
Reserve Act because it could cost him his job." - Robert A. Heinlein
“Every effort has been made by the Federal Reserve Board to conceal its powers, but the truth is that the Federal Reserve System has usurped the
government. It controls everything in congress and it controls all our foreign relations. It makes and breaks governments at will.” - Louis
McFadden, Chairman of the House Committee on Banking and Currency
"For a long time I felt that FDR had developed many thoughts and ideas that were his own to benefit this country, the United States. But he didn't.
Most of his thoughts were carefully manufactured for him in advance by the Council on Foreign Relations One World Money Group. The United Nations is
but a long range, international banking apparatus clearly set up for financial and economic profit by a small group of powerful One-World
revolutionaries, hungry for profit and power. The One-World government leaders and their ever close bankers have now acquired full control of the
money and credit machinery of the U.S. via the creation of the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank." - Curtis Dall, Son-in-Law of F.D.R., 1936
"For more than a century, ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents to attack the
Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part
of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring
with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure - one world, if you will. If that's the charge, I
stand guilty, and I am proud of it." - David Rockefeller, Memoirs, 2002
"History records that the money changers have used every form of abuse, intrigue, deceit, and violent means possible to maintain their control over
governments by controlling money and its issuance." - James Madison
