Federal Reserve
Robert, it is great to know that you also have found out what 'Rothchild' or the money changer had said. I found out the knowledge about the Federal Reserves like 20 years ago and did lot of research on the subject as a hobby. Federal Reserves were passed December 23, 1913 as seen from an old $5 Series of 1914 "Federal Reserve Note". Note Dec 23rd like a few days prior to Christmas, when most congressmen has gone home for the holiday! Tell me about 'conspiracy'!

Fed Reserve
I would guess that most people know the entity, but not what it does. I would also guess that as more and more people are hurt by this economy, they are waking up to the facts from sources (such as this book) other than the extremely biased media. Obama's "stimulus" is only going to stimulate our innate laziness to let others (ie the gov.) take care of us as most of the stimulus is only handouts, not job creation. If the people in power can quel the masses from mutiny by "spreading the welfare, I mean wealth" then they will be shoring up their massive portfolios on our dime and at our expense and will protect their own interests. Awaken Americans or you will be owned by others or another country if their plan fails!

education about the who and what the Federal Reserve really is
I have included a link to a video clip for anyone interested in learning what the U.S. Federal Reserve really is.

It's amazing how the ultra rich are robbing us all blind and doing it legally!

Yes it is. I'm not sure what
Yes it is.
I'm not sure what to think about this. Confusion and ignorance from the masses are keeping the FRS alive isn't it?

I wonder how many people think 'federal reserve' is an alcoholic beverage?

Savings rate & inflation
It seems that there is an inverse correlation between inflation and the national savings rate. That is, if there is high inflation then people will spend because the value of the money disappears, while if there is no inflation, or even deflation, people will save because the value of their money grows.

With this in mind, it seems that the "solution" to the economic problems is inflation because we have been told that saving is now bad for the economy and we must all spend our way out of the recession. In order for us to spend, inflation must be high. I think the Federal Reserve knows this and will intentionally print a lot of money with the express desire of inflating the dollar. This will also make the debt being incurred by the government cheaper to pay back later.

The solution? Gold and silver and cash-flowing investments that automatically adjust for inflation such as real estate.

Fed Res System
I never knew that!! I had heard that the very rich control the money supply and make the rules but could never understand how, so I never really believed it. Now I do. It’s the old-boys club, based on fear and greed. No wonder so much money was pumped into the election campaign. They have another puppet. In this case I cannot see things getting better for a long time. Rather than take the pain for a shorter period it’s going to drag on and on as illustrated in the bail out money that is being retained by the banks rather than used to stimulate the economy. And how underhand were they in creating the Federal Reserve. The Truth will always be revealed.

Duh
My surprise is not in the conspiracies that exist in our government, country, and world. If you know anything about human nature you know we as humans tend to do nasty things all the time especially when we get a hold of a great deal of power. Doing the right thing is actually an internal fight with your self daily (at least for me and everyone I know).

What I am surprised about is the complacency of people and their lack of a thirst for learning and truth. Then once they hear about some conspiracy I am surprised by how long people will stay in the "deer in headlights" phase of this process. Then they go back to the "denial" because it feels better. And then when confronted with reality again they just throw their hands up and say something stupid. I know this for a fact because I talk to my parents, friends, and random people on airplanes often about these topics. Most of the older generation that I talk to have switched their retirement funds into government bonds. They don't know what else to do and it makes them feel safe. When I tell them about my ongoing education with Rich Dad as a solution to some of their problems they answer with "Ya I should probably do something like that". But they never do. The move on to another subject because the weight of their ignorance is too much to bear for more than a few moments.

We need to wake up in the USA. We are not entitled to an easy life just because we live here. If you want something you have to work for it. If you want the world to be a better place you have to start with yourself. If we don’t get educated then the outcome is our own fault. We can blame our schools, blame our parents, blame our government, but that is all energy wasted. I am starting with educating me.

I am exited to read the rest of your book Robert. Thank you for your contribution and not being afraid to talk about the difficult truths.

Not surprised, but many will be
Hi Robert, first of all I have to commend you for having to courage to write this book. A lot of powerful people are going to be unhappy that you've 'pulled back the curtain' on the money system and how it works once it's released.

I am certain that your statement (easily verified, by the way) will probably be surprising to a large percentage of people. It is not surprising to me, just as it would not to anyone who has read books written by powerful men such as Lord Bertrand Russel, H.G. Wells, Jacques Ellul, Carroll Quiqley, Aldous Huxley and Zbginiew Brzinski, to name just a handful. Researching institutions such as the Club of Rome or the Council on Foreign Relations will also yield fruit for the earnest seeker.

An economy professor I know, who really ought to know better, thinks that because the POTUS chooses a Federal Reserve chairman (from a list supplied by the FR!) and the US Sentate confirms the choice that therefore the instution is a part of the US federal government. More proof for you that our educational systems--even institutions of higher learning--have failed miserably! I am more convinced than ever before that these instutions do not teach people how to think, how figure things out for themselves. I think that deep down, people like my econ professor friend know the truth of the matter but choose (either consciously or unconsciously) to ignore the truth and cling to what they've been taught.
