Debt Serfdom

Debt is the source of all of our money. This has been the case since the institution of the Federal Reserve. As incredible as it sounds, this means that if there were no debt, there would be no money—if everyone suddenly decided to pay off everything that they owed, there would be no money because it is all based not on gold or silver, but on debt. The Federal Reserve could print money from dusk till dawn and it is just paper; but, once our Treasury goes to the Fed and borrows it (at interest) it magically takes on value. Consequently, if all of the money is created out of debt and we must pay interest on that debt, where is the money going to come from to pay that interest? It’s a perpetual trap because the money simply doesn’t exist to pay the interest because it wasn’t created.

Because the Congress instituted the Federal Reserve they can do what they please without having to directly tax the voters to pay for what they want. As a matter of fact, they could repeal every single tax and could get all the money they wanted through the Federal Reserve and never have to worry about loosing votes because of having to raise taxes. So, why would they ever tax us at all, you may ask. The answer is twofold, first, by taxing us it maintains the illusion that our taxes actually finance the activities of our government which helps hide that fact that they are counterfeiting and secondly, the income and corporate taxes enable those in power to control our lives. By giving the Congress the power to tax us we are giving them the power to use carrots and sticks to prod and persuade us into the behaviors that they wish to see or not see. At the heart of this thinking is a socialist mindset. Then there remains that nagging question about where the money will come from to pay the interest if it was never created in the first place...remember, they only created the amount that was borrowed, not the interest that must be paid on top of it.

The Congress is already using the hidden tax of inflation to pay for all of those earmarks and pet projects that they pass. This is how our dollar has become practically worthless. If you think it really doesn’t affect you, think again. You may have a 401k. That 401k of yours probably just took a hit in 2008 with the drop in the stock market, but that is nothing compared to what the Federal Reserve is doing to your nest egg. By the time you reach the age when you will really need it, what will it really buy? At the rate they are killing our dollar; odds are, not very much. Let’s hope you all have a fall back plan, because that 401k is just too exposed to the damage that they can do by pilfering the value of the dollar to pay for all of those wars and pet projects, not to mention the people who have become addicted to welfare. This pilfering of the dollar will hurt those on a fixed income most of all, people such as those who are on Social Security. Sure, they will get their checks, just like always, but what will those checks buy?

Why did the Congress not just print its own money? Well, if they were to do that the counterfeiting would be too obvious. This way it is complicated enough so that people don’t understand that what the Federal Reserve is doing is just that—counterfeiting—and they earn interest on top of that!! But where does the actual money for this interest come from? It doesn't exist. It is by design a system set up to bankrupt us all. This was a scheme set up by people in high places with their sites set on ruling the world through controlling world finances.

They have blood on their hands through instigating and financing wars—all sides in wars—and all to make a coldhearted profit. They finance the winners and the losers. They know that those who go to war have to borrow money to finance it and even those who loose have to go into debt to rebuild their countries after the wars are over. The more protracted a war is, the better it is for the bankers. This “War on Terror” is perfect for them, it is endless and has an enemy that can’t be pinned down and has no borders. We have gone into huge debt over this endless conflict. They just keep going from country to country bombing endlessly. They now are trying to stir the pot in Syria and Iran. They will not be satisfied until the whole world is on fire. This I lay at the feet of the Federal Reserve. If we had to pay for all of these wars through taxation, it would not have happened because we just don’t have that much money; but, when they can print it out of thin air, we can fight wars day and night for all of eternity. As a matter of fact it doesn’t even have to be a war fought with guns. The “war against global warming” is also used to enrich the elite bankers. It too is endless and pits countries against one another. And let’s not forget the “war on drugs” which also has been used to enrich the elite as well as corrupt our police and politicians. The cartels are working with our government to launder the money through the banks and they ship out the guns to the cartels and ship in the drugs. They have much to answer for but they are so very powerful that it is doubtful that they will face justice in this world.

What will become of us when the globalists really bring the hammer down and lay all of the hundreds of trillions of derivatives on our shoulders? This is where and when they will get the interest that was never printed: They will demand austerity measures the likes of which will leave Americans destitute. They will ultimately demand that we trade our hard assets such as our National Parks, our land, minerals, and our gold in Fort Knox for their worthless paper because of the debt that they will claim that we owe. Thomas Jefferson warned of the perils of having a private central bank issuing our money. He said that if we ever allowed such a thing that we would one day wake up homeless on the continent that our forefathers conquered. He was right. Our time is running out to audit and abolish the Federal Reserve. They are a den of vipers and we are about to get bitten if we don’t quickly wake up to the scam that they are running. I believe we are quickly becoming debt serfs in the new and up and coming debt serfdom of the global elite bankers that they refer to as “The New World Order” and we just haven’t woken to this reality yet. It has happened so gradually that people didn’t know that they were having chains forged around their wrists and ankles. They deftly use psychology to get their way without us even knowing it—make us even ask for it and want it!!

The banking elite fancy themselves as our new masters. They are pulling the strings and putting into political office the world over those who will do their bidding. They have been masters of propaganda beginning with Edward Bernays. If you want to know who they want in office, just watch the mainstream media, to see who they are boosting up with glowing reviews and also look to see who they consider their adversaries—they will be the ones who they ignore or squelch. The media is bought and paid for by these same forces. They try to keep our people fighting amongst themselves so that we will blind to their foul deeds. They do this on the left and the right to misdirect our attention, to direct the opposition where they want them to go. They have been doing this since the turn of the last century. They have also taken over our educational system, they wish to dumb down the population so that we can’t think past the current sitcom or football game, and they want us preoccupied with frivolous things so that things will be too far along to change once we finally wake up.

The most frightening of all I would have to say is that they are also using our food and water to manipulate us. The fluoride that they put into the water is just like giving everyone a Prozac because that is the main ingredient in that drug. It is what they did to the people in concentration camps in Nazi Germany. They want us lulled into a stupor so that we don’t even know that we are being assaulted. They wish to use eugenics to cull our population. From writings from early last century we find that there are eugenicists that wish to reduce the world population. One more recent blatant example of such an inclination are The Georgia Guide Stones where they plainly state that they would like to have a population for the Earth no greater than 500 million. Perhaps that is why we are now eating so many GMO crops. The tests show that after about 3 generations sterility begins to happen. The GMO crops do the things that they are touted to do but they don’t want people to know about the side affects. By the time people have been eating them for 2 or 3 generations, it will be too late undo the damage 20 or 40 years down the road and there will be nothing we can do to help those who will be sterile. Apparently another tool being used to lower fertility is unscrupulous use of vaccines. Now is the time we must speak up for our progeny because they are under attack.

The Good Book warns us that the love of money is the root of all evil, I think it most assuredly holds true when it comes to the Federal Reserve. When given absolute power as the Federal Reserve has been given, how can we not expect them to not become absolutely corrupted? The time has come to end the Federal Reserve and put the power to coin money back where our constitution intended it to be—in the hands of the Congress, a congress which is elected by We the People, not some unelected group of elite, corrupt bankers.

 

Why the Super Congress is a Super Bad Idea

Why on earth do we continue down this road towards tyranny? We are going down a road well traveled by tyrants of the past and yet we don’t stop when we see the numerous warning signs along the way. Perhaps we have become numb to them so that we no longer even notice the blinking neon sign flashing in our face warning of the cliff dead ahead.

Congress is oblivious to its low approval ratings. The people seem to no longer have proper representation. They only seem to be able to go from bad to worse. They have furthered the distance between us by instituting this Super Congress. It takes away the right of our own individual representatives to even debate a bill that comes from it. They can only vote up or down with no debate or amendments.

In order to keep the proper balance of power, we must follow the plan set out by the constitution. It is very difficult to get a bill turned into law for a very good reason (or at least it should be.) It is part of what keeps us free. The spending bills are supposed to be submitted by individual house members then go into committee and then released for a vote only if it succeeds should Senators even be able to contemplate it. 13 people should not hold so much power (the 13^th being the president.)

We have a system of checks and balances that is in a very precarious state these days. 1913 was a very bad year for our constitution. They took away the balance of power between the states and the federal government with the 17th amendment. They took away the right of the federal government to coin its own money. They took away the right to property through the federal income tax. We have gone down hill ever since.

If we fail to return to the form of government that was intended by our constitution our Republic will continue die a painful death—it’s already on its last leg, barely recognizable anymore. It is up to us to fix what has been broken. It will take all of us waking up to the peril that we are in if we even are going to stand a chance.

The Debt Boat

As Americans, we all find ourselves in the same debt boat; the responsibility for our nation’s debt falls upon all of our shoulders. Only by working on this problem together can we have a prayer of overcoming it. Lincoln once said that “a house divided against itself cannot stand.” This is a lesson that Obama is in dire need of learning as evidenced by his repeated undermining of our country through his attempts to pit rich against poor, blacks against whites, old against young, private employees against public employees, doctors against their patients, police against the public...there seems to be no limit to what he will do to undermine the very fabric of America. His dedication to Marxist ideology comes through crystal clear when you watch his policies fall into place. He believes that it is the job of the government to redistribute wealth from people who earn it to those who do not and in so doing the government gains power over both rich and poor. He fails to understand that all Americans are in the same debt boat and that boat is quickly taking on water; therefore, he has failed to sound the siren and pass out the lifejackets.

Taxing the rich of every penny they have and all of their assets would not even put a dent in the trillions of dollars of debt that we owe as a nation not to mention our unfunded liabilities. Drastically cutting spending is the only way to fix this mess we are in. If we just roll over and allow them to continue to borrow like there is no tomorrow we will wake up one day and find ourselves serfs to the elite who will run the show and the America that we know and love will be but a distant memory. Now is the time to draw a line in the sand and say no to more borrowing because that is the only way to stop the insane spending. They are like drug addicts and they need to go cold turkey. With every dollar they borrow they are forging the chains that will bind our people for many generations to come. The debt they are purposefully and gleefully racking up is so big and so deep that if something drastic isn’t done immediately there will be no way of repaying it.

The Obama administration seems to believe that we will have these artificially low interest rates indefinitely. We have been given warning bells from those who issue credit ratings. The days of low interest will soon come to a close and once we go back up to the average interest (we can consider ourselves lucky if it doesn’t surpass the average rate) which is around 5 to 6 percent then our predicament will be far worse. The interest payments alone will eat up a huge chunk of our tax receipts. Couple that with the ever increasing Medicare and Social Security obligations and we will find that we are in quicksand up to our necks with no one to throw us a lifeline. We will be left defenseless because there will be no more money to fund the military. Our politicians have been making promises to get votes for a long time now all the while knowing that when the bills came due for them, they would have long since left office and the problem would be left for latter generations to solve. Well, the time has come to solve it if it will ever be solved at all. If we fail to solve it, the solution will be forced upon us by the world and in that scenario it will be no longer up to us how we want to fix it, it will be out of our hands and we will just have to live with whatever our new masters dictate to us. I say masters because we are making ourselves into slaves with this unwieldy debt burden.

Only if we turn a deaf ear to Obama’s language that seeks to divide us and embrace the ideals that America was built upon will we conquer this immense problem. There is nothing that Americans can’t do if we set our minds to it. Americans understand that austerity will be necessary if we are to ever put our fiscal house in order. We have been down this road before such as during WWII when Americans made great sacrifices for the cause of freedom. The threat from within that we face today has the potential to be every bit as detrimental to our beloved country as was the threat from without that the greatest generation faced and only by joining arms with our neighbors—both rich and poor, black and white, young and old, can we hope to remain a nation where liberty and freedom are the cornerstone of our way of life which will make possible the taming this beast we call the national debt and get out of this debt boat once and for all.

Progressivism's False Wealth Redistribution Utopia

Everyone knows that oil and water do not mix. I submit that freedom and tyranny do not mix either. There are a growing number of people in America who have come to the realization that they can vote their neighbors money out of his or her pockets and into their own. This is something that our founders warned would one day happen. It will be the downfall of our Republic because once people understand that they can live off of the labor of others, they will do so and those who work will be fewer and fewer in number until the whole scheme collapses under the weight of the burden.

We therefore have before us a choice to make—do we reverse course and strengthen that which has made America strong or do we continue down our present path and snuff out the last vestige of what America was meant to be; a place where everyone had an equal opportunity to pursue happiness and the rights to your property were protected by our constitution. This is not an easy choice once you get into the details because there are many people who have fallen for the premise that they are actually entitled to the fruits of the labor of others. They do not see why they should work when it pays more to stay at home. They cannot see that they will in fact be the down fall of the freest country this world has ever known; because, the way of life that they have grown comfortable with is unsustainable. It seems that neither side is willing to tell the truth nor if they did would anyone listen. We are on a collision course with reality and we will not be victorious. There is no army on this earth that can defeat us—that is something that we are doing to ourselves.

Fault for this predicament lies squarely at the feet of the voters, there is no one else to blame. It is the voters who elected these misguided Progressives who are in power and mistakenly believe that the most humane thing to do is to just redistribute the wealth of “those evil rich people” and give it to the poor—all the while ignoring the deleterious affects of such actions not only on the person from whom the wealth was taken but also on the recipient of said wealth. It remains to be seen whether or not they have learned their lesson and will do their homework before stepping into the voting booth this time. Do they still love freedom enough to vote for people who will defend and protect our constitution or are they so dependent upon government entitlements that they see no other way to survive than to keep voting for people who will redistribute other people's wealth into their pockets? The next election is more than a normal presidential election cycle; I believe this will be a referendum on whether or not Americans still yearn to be free and are still willing to sacrifice for that ideal because just as freedom and tyranny cannot coexist, neither can freedom and entitlements.

More than Just a Piece of Cloth

Old Glory fluttering in the wind gives all Americans hope. It is not for the tangible fabric of which it is made; it’s more than just a piece of cloth. Our red, white, and blue flag is an emblem that represents ideals upon which our country was founded, ideals for which many have pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor to protect. Never before in the history of this tired old world has there been a place founded upon the idea that our right to life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness was divinely given and that man could not give them and could not take them away. Never before was there a place where the lowly and meek had a chance to climb to the mountain tops of society if only they applied themselves and were willing to work diligently. This country that we call home was built upon the hopes, dreams, and determination of our forefathers.

On the occasion of Armed Forces Day and with an eye to the upcoming Memorial Day, I want to send out a heartfelt thank you to all who have served and who now serve under our flag to protect the ideals for which it stands. Thank you for protecting our country so that we can be free to live our lives, enjoy our liberties, and to pursue happiness; because, without the sacrifices that you so selflessly make this would be impossible to do.

After 9/11 Americans from coast to coast put up flags. They understood that we were under attack and came together to protect our country. There was however an underbelly that was neglected while we were so concerned about dangers from abroad. Americans at home forgot to ensure that the home front was protected as well from enemies from within. Each and every one of us has a solemn responsibility to stay informed about the conduct of our elected officials. Holding them accountable when they fail to uphold the oath to protect and defend our constitution is our duty if we intend to bequeath to our posterity a country as free as the one which we were handed. The wolves in sheep’s clothing are doing their utmost to relinquish us of our freedom and liberty, it is up to us to change that and reverse the damage that they have done.

That piece of cloth evokes feelings of love for our country and an appreciation for the sacrifices of all who have given so much so that we can be free. It is red for the valor, white for purity, and blue for vigilance, perseverance, and justice. It’s more than just a piece of cloth; it is a symbol of what makes America exceptional.

Reflections on Freedom this Mother's Day

Before a woman becomes a mother she has high hopes and dreams for the future of her child yet unborn. Hopes not just for tomorrow, but also extending far into the future when her child would reach adulthood; however, with the first cry of that baby, more immediate concerns like the next bottle to be filled or the next diaper change are more pressing in her mind. The busyness of childrearing takes the place of watchfulness of the trends in world events; but, once the child grows into adulthood it becomes clearer just exactly what kind of world she has bequeathed to her child. For moms around our country this has become a source of worry because our government seems to have been infiltrated by Progressives, Socialists, and Marxists while we were busy putting a roof over our kids’ heads.

Perhaps the job of reawakening the spirit of freedom and liberty falls upon the shoulders of the generation that is old enough to remember what freedom and liberty feels like and still young enough to do something about it. Our children were indoctrinated by our schools while we were busy working. They haven’t been taught to hold dear to the American ideals that made this country great. It is imperative that they be taught just what exactly is slipping through their fingers. They need to understand why our founding fathers vowed their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor to secure freedom for our budding nation and why we too must renew with vigor the fight for freedom because once freedom is lost it is rarely if ever recovered. Freedom is the rare exception rather than the rule in the history of our world. It is a treasure that we must protect with every fiber of our being.

It is with great hopefulness that the new mothers of today are braving the current uncertainties with an eye for making tomorrow better for their children. It is up to us to work hard to ensure that our grandchildren will have a free and prosperous country to grow up in. We must take it upon ourselves to teach them the virtues of Free Enterprise and Capitalism and that entitlement handouts only serve to enslave them. We must endow them with the knowledge of the inseparable link between our love for God and the desire to live a good and faithful life that includes abiding by the laws and caring for our fellow man through charitable works and through our churches. These are things that used to be ingrained in us by our families, churches, and schools, unfortunately for many that no longer holds true. We must nourish the love of God and country in our youth so that when it is time for them to take the reins, they will be ready to drive our country in the right direction for their children and grandchildren.

The Cruel Fruits of Progressivism

The reasons for the burgeoning number of fatherless children in all families with black families being particularly hard hit can be traced to the Progressive policies enacted back in the 1960's under Lyndon B. Johnson. He had his War on Poverty and his Great Society ideas which made matters worse by rewarding mothers for being single parents and encouraging fathers to stay out of the family picture—robbing untold numbers of children of a male figure to protect and guide them in their home. While the goals of reducing poverty are noble on the face of it, the policies were ill thought out and have caused a cruel legacy for the children who were and are born into the homes of women who took advantage of the promise of those programs. The black community has been severely undermined. The government attempted to take the place of the father figure for the generations since these policies were enacted and the results have been nothing short of a disaster for many black families. All families are most secure when there is a solid family unit that strives to do the best for their children and protect them from harm; but, by allowing Uncle Sam to become daddy for their children, they have let the fox in the hen house.

Government uses taxes to punish behavior it wants to see curtailed and it uses entitlements and subsidies to encourage behavior it wants to propagate. This is why Progressives want the people who actually get married to get hit with a tax penalty just for being married and they want to give entitlements to those who have children out of wedlock and never get married.

If we want to encourage responsible behavior among ALL of our citizens, we should get out of the business of using taxes and entitlements to coerce the formation of a society that government thinks is best. Cut out entitlements and personal Income Taxes and replace it with a Consumption tax for everyone. People would once again be rewarded for the labor that they do instead of being punished for it and only pay taxes voluntarily whenever they made a purchase. People would then have more money to spend raising their children or to donate to churches and charities if they so choose which would use that money to help the poor and simultaneously encourage moral behavior that would put an end to the skyrocketing rate of children born out of wedlock.

Our government learned long ago that they had carrot and stick capabilities with taxes, deductions, entitlements, and subsidies. The seeds of Progressivism have begotten rotten fruit and we cannot allow another generation to fall victim.

Illusionary Finances

The year was 1913 when we started on this long road towards financial bondage. Congress slipped a couple of things by us that forever changed how we think about our money, our independence, and our government. This is when congress abdicated its constitutionally mandated responsibility to coin money and bestowed it upon The Federal Reserve which is a banking cartel with inherent profit motives that run contrary to those of the United States. Our founders warned us mightily against taking such an action. We give the Federal Reserve the privilege of printing money out of thin air or by adding zeros to an electronic bank account and then we borrow this money from them and pay it back with interest. Why on earth would we ever agree to such a scheme? The reason seems to be that congress has an insatiable spending appetite and wants to spend as much as it wants to without ever feeling the pinch. It wants to perpetually hand the bill to the next generation. Refinancing the old debt rolled together with new debt and handing the bill to their children seems to be the way congress now finances its shenanigans.


Americans are becoming serfs and our wealth is quickly being absorbed by this powerful international banking cartel called the Fed. The congress is weak but could still turn this thing around by repealing the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. We have reached a tipping point. S & P just bestowed upon us a negative outlook rating. This should be a wake up call to every American. This gravy train is coming to a screeching halt. We have to make drastic, across the board cuts and rethink the place of government. We need to put it back into the box that the constitution intended for it. Will we determine to live as a free and independent people or are we destined to serfdom? It remains to be seen whether or not there is the will left in the heart of the American people to continue this experiment called America.

Why Being a Natural Born Citizen Matters

Being a natural born citizen is crucial because our leader needs to be one of us so that he or she understands what makes Americans uniquely American—how can Obama possibly understand this when he did a lot of his growing up in a foreign land. The formative years are crucial for laying the foundation for what you believe about your country. To compound the issue, he had a mother, father, stepfather, mentor, and grandparents who were socialist/Marxists who didn't care for our system of government and were only using it to transform it into something altogether different.

 

So he was indoctrinated from an early age and never really understood what the root of what American exceptionalism really is. He tends to blame America for every ill that the world suffers from. Just exactly who is Obama leading anyway? It should be no shock to any observer that he was giddy about an apology tour designed to downplay the role of America in the world and to try to shame Americans into submitting to some new World Government. 

It is no surprise either that Obama went to the UN before he attacked Libya but never consulted with the legislative branch which constitutionally has that power. It is easy to see why Obama would want to redistribute the wealth of America to the rest of the world through Cap ‘n Tax and through bail outs of foreign banks when he thinks of himself more as the president of the world than he does of merely an American president. 

Our founding fathers were wise to include the requirement of natural born citizenship for people who wish to hold the office of president. Whether or not Obama was natural born is almost beside the point because of the way in which he was raised, it sort of gives us a glimpse into what the founders were trying to avoid when they put that clause in the constitution. They merely wanted an American who has our best interests at heart to hold the highest office in the land and I tend to agree with them.
