“If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them, will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.”
- Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), President, within a letter to then Secretary of the Treasury, Albert Gallatin, 1802.
This was not a quote by Thomas Jefferson, it was a prophesy. You may not believe me when I say there is a global conspiracy by the international banking elite to rule the world. So, I've compiled thirty-four pages of the private central banks own admissions, legislation and quotes from some of the most prominent and important people in history. Make sure you read this before you make any assumptions.

“A great industrial
nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is
concentrated. The growth of the Nation and all our activities are 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….Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men’s views confided
to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the U.S., in the field of commerce
and manufacturing, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know
that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so
interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above
their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.”
- Woodrow Wilson
(1856-1924), President, The New Freedom, 1913.

“The real truth of the
matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the large centers has
owned the government of the U.S. since the days of Andrew Jackson…The Federal
Reserve Banks are one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever
seen.”
- Franklin D. Roosevelt
(1882-1945), President, in a letter written Nov. 21, 1933 to Colonel E. Mandell
House (an American diplomat, politician, and presidential adviser).

“I see in the near
future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the
safety of my country. 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.”
- Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865), President, Questionable.
Supposedly written in reference to the passage of the National Banking Act of
1863 less than five months before he was assassinated in a letter to one Col.
William F. Elkins, referenced in Emanuel Hertz’s 1931 book: Abraham Lincoln:
A New Portrait, found on page 40 of The Lincoln Encyclopedia, by

“The money powers prey upon the nation in
times of peace and conspire against it in times of adversity. The banking
powers are more despotic than a monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more
selfish than bureaucracy. They denounce as public enemies all who question
their methods or throw light upon their 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. Corporations have been enthroned, and an era of
corruption in high places will follow. The money power of the country will
endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people
until the wealth is aggregated in the hands of a few, and the Republic is
destroyed.”

“If congress has the
right under the Constitution to issue paper money, it was given them to use
themselves, not to be delegated to individuals or corporations.”
- Andrew Jackson
(1767-1845), President. Jackson vetoed the bank bill of 1836.
________________________________________________________________________________________
“The Government should
create, issue, and circulate all the currency and credits needed to satisfy the
spending power of the Government and the buying power of consumers. By the
adoption of these principles, the taxpayers will be saved immense sums of
interest. Money will cease to be master and become the servant of humanity.”

“Gentlemen, I have had
men watching you for a long time and I am convinced that you have used the
funds of the bank to speculate in the breadstuffs of the country. When you won,
you divided the profits amongst you, and when you lost, you charged it to the
bank. You tell me that if I take the deposits from the bank and annul its
charter, I shall ruin ten thousand families. That may be true, gentlemen, but
that is your sin! Should I let you go on, you will ruin fifty thousand
families, and that would be my sin! You are a den of vipers and thieves.”
- Andrew Jackson
(1767-1845), President. Said in 1836 when he forced the closing of the Second
Bank of the United States by revoking it’s charter.

“The bank, is trying to kill me, but I will
kill it! You are a den of vipers and thieves. I intend to rout you out, and by
the eternal God I will rout you out.”
- Andrew Jackson
(1767-1845), President, After he dissolved the Second National Bank of America
(banks were granted twenty year charters to print money) there was an attempt
on his life. On May 6, 1883 while on a steamboat trip to Fredericksburg,
Virginia a former navy officer attacked President Jackson. The would-be
assassin pointed his pistol at President Jackson and pulled the trigger. The
gun jammed. He took out another one, and it also misfired. Jackson then tackled
the man to the ground.

“…To take a single step
beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress is to
take possession of a boundless field of power, no longer susceptible of any
definition. The incorporation of a bank, and the powers assumed by this bill
[chartering the first Bank of the United States], have not, been delegated to
the United States by the Constitution.”
- Thomas Jefferson
(1743-1826), President, in opposition to the chartering of the first Bank of
the United States, 1791.

“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.”

“The system of banking
[is] a blot left in all our Constitutions, which, if not covered, will end in

(1743-1826), President, stated when Jefferson refused to renew the charter for
the First Bank of the United States (the 2nd central bank chartered by Congress
in 1791), 1811.

“I believe that banking
institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. Already

J.P. Morgan interests, the steel, shipbuilding, and powder interest, and their
subsidiary organizations, got together 12 men high up in the newspaper world
and employed them to select the most influential newspapers in the United
States and sufficient number of them to control generally the policy of the
daily press…They found it was only necessary to purchase the control of 25 of
the greatest papers. An agreement was reached; the policy of the papers was
bought, to be paid for by the month; an editor was furnished for each paper to
properly supervise and edit information regarding the questions of
preparedness, militarism, financial policies, and other things of national and
international nature considered vital to the interests of the purchasers.”

the day of reckoning is only a few years removed. The trusts will soon realize

declaration of independence to relieve themselves from the Monetary Power. This
they will be able to do by taking control of Congress. Wall Streeters could not
cheat us if you Senators and Representatives did not make a humbug of Congress…
The greatest crime of Congress is its currency system. The worst legislative

money we are prosperous; if not, we starve. We are absolutely without a
permanent money system. When one gets a complete grasp of the picture, the
tragic absurdity of our hopeless position is almost incredible, but there it
is. It is the most important subject intelligent persons can investigate and

savings from confiscation through inflation. There is no safe store of value.
If there were, the government would have to make its holdings illegal, as was
done in the case of gold…. The financial policy of the welfare state requires
that there be no way for the owners of wealth to protect themselves…. [This] is
the shabby secret of the welfare statist’s tirades against gold. Deficit
spending is simply a scheme for the ‘hidden’ confiscation of wealth. Gold
stands in the way of this insidious process. It stands as a protector of property
rights.”

incidentally, are the only type of currency now produced for circulation. They
are printed exclusively by the Treasury’s Bureau of Engraving and Printing, and
the $20.60 per thousand price reflects the Bureau’s full cost of production. Federal
Reserve Notes are printed in 01, 02, 05, 10, 20, 50, and 100 dollar
denominations only; notes of 500, 1000, 5000, and 10,000 denominations were

People who supply all the material and do all the work. This is the terrible
thing about [bank] interest…But here is the point: If the Nation can issue a
dollar bond it can issue a dollar bill. The element that makes the bond good
makes the bill good also. The difference between the bond and the bill is that
the bond lets the money broker collect twice the amount of the bond and an
additional 20%. Whereas the currency, the honest sort provided by the
Constitution pays nobody but those who contribute in some useful way. It is
absurd to say our Country can issue bonds and cannot issue currency. Both are
promises to pay, but one fattens the usurer and the other helps the People. If
the currency issued by the People were no good, then the bonds would be no
good, either. It is a terrible situation when the Government, to insure the

“Lenin is said to have
declared that the best way to destroy the Capitalistic System was to debauch
the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate,
secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens. By
this method they not only confiscate, but they confiscate arbitrarily;
and, while the process impoverishes many, it actually enriches some. The site
of this arbitrary rearrangement of riches strikes not only at security, but at
confidence in the equity of the existing distribution of wealth. Those to whom
the system brings windfalls, beyond their deserts and even beyond their
expectations or desires, become “profiteers,” who are the object of the hatred
bourgeoisie, whom the inflationism has impoverished, not less than of the
proletariat. As the inflation proceeds and the real value of the currency
fluctuates wildly from month to month, all permanent relations between debtors
and creditors, which form the ultimate foundation of capitalism, become so
utterly disordered as to be almost meaningless; and the process of
wealth-getting degenerates into a gamble and a lottery.
Lenin was certainly
right. There is no subtler, no surer means of overturning the existing basis of
society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces
of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not
one man in a million is able to diagnose.”

“The powers of financial
capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world
system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political

to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world
acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and
conferences. The apex of the systems was to be the Bank for International
Settlements in Basel, Switzerland; a private bank owned and controlled by the
world’s central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central
bank…sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury
loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic
activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent
economic rewards in the business world.”

Belgium, Spain, Naples, Portugal, Brazil, various German states and smaller

“From the days of Spartacus-Weishaupt to those of Karl Marx, to those of Trotsky, Bela Kun,
Rosa Luxembourg, and Emma Goldman, this world wide conspiracy for the overthrow
of civilization and for the reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested
development, of envious malevolence and impossible equality, has been steadily
growing. It played a definitely recognizable role in the tragedy of the French
Revolution. It has been the mainspring of every subversive movement during the
nineteenth century, and now at last this band of extraordinary personalities
from the underworld of the great cities of Europe and America have gripped the
Russian people by the hair of their heads, and have become practically the
undisputed masters of that enormous empire.”
--Karl Wojtyla: AKA
Pope John Paul II "By the end of this decade we will live under the
first One World Government
that has ever existed in the society of nations...a government with absolute
authority to decide the basic issues of survival. One world government is inevitable."
