That would be the central bankers (our Federal Reserve) who keep the people and our nation trapped in their fictional debt slavery. We were told it was the British government. However, it was the bankers who wrote our history books and conveniently neglected to inform us that they owned the British government, and King George, and the Bank of England.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Before the Revolution, there was prosperity in the colonies. Ben Franklin explained, \u201cIn the Colonies we issue our own money. \u2026 We issue it in proper proportion to the demands of trade and industry, \u2026 and we have no interest to pay to anyone.\u201d The bankers told the king there will be no more of that. They\u2019d have to borrow from the money changers like everybody else. Later, Franklin would say, \u201cThe refusal of King George to allow the colonies to operate an honest money system which freed the ordinary man from the clutches of the money manipulators was probably the prime cause of the Revolution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Remember, these bankers make up the money out of thin air, then charge us interest for their \u201chard work.\u201d The Federal Reserve has been sucking the wealth out of this country and its people since 1913. A century of enslavement. Does any candidate oppose this? I guess it\u2019s still just me and the Money Free Party, promoting Bucky Fuller\u2019s World Peace Game, a game played for the benefit of the people, without the bankers or the corporate state. You can take a spin around the entire game board at \u201csaylor2020.com.\u201d And if you search YouTube for \u201cHistory of Bankers In America in 8 Minutes,\u201d you\u2019ll see my video of what you missed in our history books.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND Letter Name\">Steve Saylor<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND Letter Title\">Carbondale<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aspentimes.com\/opinion\/letters-to-the-editor\/its-the-federal-reserve-stupid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: The Aspen Times<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019m still waiting for one of the presidential candidates to get their hands dirty and dig out the actual root of our problems; the same dark, decrepit root that led to the American Revolution.
