The Banksters

Examining what has been occuring over the last thiry years in our nation with regard to the financial sector is intimidating.  The concentration of wealth to the top few Americans has been driven by the tireless efforts of lawyers and lobbiest to deregulate the banking institutions.  The lessons we learned after the Great Depression brought about laws to protect Americans from future collapse.  Those laws have been slowly removed one by one by financial institutions lobbying law makers and lining their pockets.  There are 310,000,000 Americans
400 Americans have more wealth than 150,000,000 Americans.
10 companies (financial institutions) own 77% of all American Assets. 
Yet they still want more.
The only reason I can offer is that it isn't Liberty they are after, it is control.  They want the population of the world to be in their debt so that they can control everything. 


I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.
Thomas Jefferson

Stop using these institutions.  Use Community Banks. "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants"

Fight the Aristocracy

The purpose of my writing is to demonstrate and hopefully inspire some American patriotism.  I hope to, if only for a minute, pull the eyes of complacence away from celebrity drama and sports entertainment to the withering tree of liberty.  We are losing our Democratic Republic to the vast armies of corporate lawyers and lobbiests, who seek to give our government over to the aristocracy.  Thomas Jefferson is my inspiration for this.  He warned us of this, he and others understood how the struggle for power works and how rare it was for the opportunity to hand the power of a nation over to the collective, out of the hands of tyrants, and create a government in the interest of the common good.

I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial by strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country.
Thomas Jefferson
We see this now. The banksters have lobbied our representatives for decades. They have thrown their money at our elections and purchased the manipulation of our laws that regulate them.  They are winning.  They are siphoning all of the wealth the middle class had earned and they are funneling it to the top 1%.  There are now 400 Americans who hold more wealth than 150,000,000 Americans.  Those 400 Americans need to know their time has come.  America will not sit lathargic any longer.
