"Most Americans have no real understanding of the
operation of the international money lenders. The accounts of the Federal
Reserve System have never been audited. It operates outside the control of
Congress and manipulates the credit of the United States."
-Sen. Barry Goldwater
It is well that the people of the nation do not understand our
banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a
revolution before tomorrow morning."

bankers."

-Franklin Delano Roosevelt
"As soon as Mr. Roosevelt took office, the Federal
Reserve began to buy government securities at the rate of ten million

[checkbook] currency, which alleviated the critical famine of money and
credit, and the factories started hiring people again."
-Eustace Mullins
"This [Federal Reserve Act] establishes the most gigantic
trust on earth. When the President [Wilson} signs this bill, the invisible
government of the monetary power will be legalized....the worst legislative
crime of the ages is perpetrated by this banking and currency bill."
-Charles A. Lindbergh, Sr. , 1913
"When you or I
write a check there must be sufficient funds in our account to cover the
check, but when the Federal Reserve writes a check there is no bank deposit
on which that check is drawn. When the Federal Reserve writes a check, it
is creating money."
-Putting it simply, Boston Federal Reserve Bank
"We have, in this country, one of the most corrupt
institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve
Board. This evil institution has impoverished the people of the United
States and has practically bankrupted our government. It has done this
through the corrupt practices of the moneyed vultures who
control it."
-Congressman Louis T. McFadden in 1932
“The few who understand the system, will either be so
interested from it’s
profits or so dependent on it’s favors, that
there will be no opposition from that class.”
-Rothschild Brothers of London, 1863

conceal the ugly fact that by an iniquitous money system we have

cruel than the old system of chattel slavery."
-Horace Greeley

one penny..."

directly to the private stockholders of the [federal reserve] banks."
-Eustace Mullins
"The financial system has been turned over to the Federal
Reserve Board. That Board administers the finance system by authority of a
purely profiteering group. The system is Private, conducted for the sole
purpose of obtaining the greatest possible profits from the use of other
people's money"
-Charles A. Lindbergh Sr., 1923
"Bankers own the
earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money and
control credit, and with a flick of a pen they will create enough to buy it
back."
-Sir Josiah Stamp, former President, Bank of England
"All the
perplexities, confusion and distress in America arise, not from defects in
their Constitution or Confederation, not from want of honor or virtue, so
much as from the downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit and
circulation."
-John Adams
"Whoever controls the volume of money in any country is
absolute master of all industry and commerce."
-James A. Garfield, President of the United States
"A great industrial nation is controlled by it's system of credit. Our
system of credit is concentrated in the hands of a few men. We have come to
be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and
dominated governments in the world--no longer a government of free opinion,
no longer a government by conviction and vote of the majority, but a
government by the opinion and duress of small groups of dominant men."
-President Woodrow Wilson
"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 it's
issuance."
-James Madison
"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous
to our liberties than standing armies. Already they have raised
up a monied aristocracy that has set the
government at defiance. The issuing power (of money) should be taken away
from the banks and restored to the people to whom it properly
belongs."
-Thomas Jefferson
“The money powers prey upon the nation in times of peace and
conspire against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than a
monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, and more selfish than bureaucracy.
It denounces as public enemies all who question
its methods or throw light upon its crimes. I have two great enemies, the
Southern Army in front of me and the bankers in the rear. Of the two, the
one at my rear is my greatest foe.”
-Abraham Lincoln
"Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who
makes it's laws"
-Mayer Amschel Bauer Rothschild
