Why? Who cares about the gold.
But since greed is eternal this was often abused. In the 19th century bankers expanded credit recklessly (i.e. privately increasing the money supply without any regulation) during booms and then during the inevitable bust they abusively called in loans which people like farmers or merchants were unable to pay and took possession of more and more assets.

This also ties into the whole 16th ammendment not being legally ratified by the required 36 states, but only 27 (legally varifyable)...
Here's a LINK16th Ammendment Rafitication Chart
That alone makes the federal income tax totally not legal. Many people know this I bet though on here...?
How could so many people accept a lie as the truth?
THey have the population so completely brainwashed it's scary.

There is NOTHING fictional about being separate from the goverment. The federal reserve is in fact a PRIVATELY owned bank. The bank has private stock that can not be traded. It has 8 or 9 (nobody is 100% sure on total ownership) families that own the federal reserve. The list includes the rockefellers, rothschilds, morgan, to name a few.
Congress approves board members from a list given to them by, yep you guessed it the folks who own the fed. Alan Greenspan and others are handpicked puppets with no real power. Its a rubberstamp proceedure with no debate on candidates.
The Federal Reserve's name is proof of the conspirator nature of the bank. The bankers knew that a central bank act would never pass congress and the proof was the previous year's attempt (known as the Aldrich bill) was soundly rejected. So the bankers met in secret in 1913 on Jekyll Island in Georgia and designed a plan to make the bill seem less like a central bank bill. The Federal Reserve is no more federal than Federal Express is.
Before the fed, private banks did NOT issue paper money. This is completely false. It is in fact illegal and unconstitutional for anyone but congress to print money. The Federal Reserve act of 1913 violates the constitution and therefore is illegal. The banks before 1913 issued us treasury notes that were backed by gold.
About the references to bank corruption...this part makes me laugh. Do some research my friend. Its a well-known fact that all of the bank panics were 100% implemented by the bankers themselves. This was all part of their plan. Cause banks to fail, then go to the people and offer a solution...a central bank ! The bankers had been trying to establish a permanent central bank in america since before the revolutionary war. They were relentless in their efforts. It took over 150 years but they finally achieved this.
Finally, to this date the Fed has never once been audited.

Thomas Jefferson taught that if the American people ever allowed the banks to issue their currency, then by inflation and deflation, the banks which would grow up around them and would deprive the people of all property until their children woke up homeless in the continent the founding fathers established.

because if there is a slow but steady economic decline and people get to actually watch as there wealth is slowly eroded away i think there will be enough time to reach a critical level of awareness on the matter, and then possibly do something about it.
