Just Remember......
by Richard Greene

They've been telling you gold is a barbaric relic for decades now!

Whatever you do, gold and silver investors; don't ever forget how they claimed gold and silver were mere trinkets, not worthy of consideration as backing for money. Keep this one point firmly etched front and center for all to see. Never let it go out of sight for even one moment. For if the politicians, the bankers, the Treasury officials, various spokesmen for the Fed, or the money powers ever go back on that claim, you will have all the proof you will ever need that their claim was nothing but a longstanding hoax perpetrated to rob blind the uninformed and unconcerned "sheople". Let's just make sure they stay with that viewpoint and take it to their grave. If not they will clearly be coming after your gold and silver in an attempt to make it theirs. They may even be so bold to use the well worn line, "I am from the government and I am here to help you."

Unfortunately, for them the people are slowly catching on. They absolutely had to have $700 billion or the world was coming to an end and then when they got it they just sat on it. Then when our representatives asked what happened to it, they would not tell us. Of course not, if we were told what was done with it there would be a lynch mob ready to hang the authorities from the nearest tree. We shall see what happens but when the above mentioned groups try to change their stripes by saying maybe gold isn't such a barbaric relic after all and, " oh, by the way, we need to take your gold for the good of the nation", it just might not go as easily as they expect.

The "sheople" may just come back to their senses and once again become the people of the United States. They may just point out that the money of the United States is to be nothing but gold or silver and it says so right in this country's founding documents. It also says that the penalty for violating this rule is death. Since Alan Greenspan has made it quite clear that he fully understood the role of gold in the financial system by his treatise written in 1966, he leaves himself wide open to the wrath of the public. The last central banker that was beheaded occurred in 1719 in Sweden. Don't be surprised, it could happen again. It is becoming ever too clear that we have all been had by our own public servants.

The damage that has been done, this time; by the uncaring brokers and bankers that wildly leveraged their, (and then our) equity hundreds of times have created a sinkhole so big that all of the wealth of the entire world can not pay down the resulting debt. Heads they won, tails we lose! There are hundreds of millions of us in the United States alone that lost because of this "Too big to fail" mentality. We should have let all the reckless financial institutions that gambled wildly go down and used the $12+ trillion and counting to insure depositors and fund brand new banks or successful little banks that know how to bank.

Instead we hand over trillions to the same criminals like we are their slaves. They even have the audacity to funnel $4 billion in bonuses to Merrill Lynch employees in a year when the company bankrupted itself and another $163 million to AIG that bankrupted half the industry and they have no qualms about doing this in broad daylight! Can you imagine where the money went that they aren't telling us about? Why is everyone up in arms about the AIG bonus and we hear almost nothing about the Merrill scam? I thought a bonus was for something good. I guess the plan was to bring down the financial system; yes that must be it! Good job guys you succeeded in bringing down the financial system, step right up for your bonus. I guess now they can try to install the one world currency they have dreamed of for years to continue to control us and rip us off.

The money powers do everything they can to keep the system intact because it is a legalized stealing scheme. Bailout money has undoubtedly gone to suppressing gold and silver; honest money, their deadly enemy. The Fed's announcement that they will now issue $1.25 trillion to buy their own bonds makes it clear to even the more economically challenged that we have initiated a policy of outright inflating our debts away. The obvious takedown of gold on Wednesday prior to the release of the news was to make room for the inevitable response of gold and silver to move up without threatening the old highs which it did with force almost immediately. Investors should ignore the fact that gold and silver are not being allowed to reach their true market levels and buy real physical gold and silver in their own possession on every decline. Paper gold and silver holders will be out of luck since there are many times the amount of claims on gold and silver than that which really exists. When the fraud is exposed they will get rapidly depreciating Federal Reserve notes but nothing that will actually protect their wealth going forward. That will only come in exchange for something with real value. The money powers can move the Comex price of gold and silver down any time they like. They simply provide money to their agents such as JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs which can in turn hit every bid on the futures or even in the GLD and SLV ETFs. This is especially so since longs have increasingly abandoned the Comex due to the more obvious fraudulent nature of that "market". If you understand this thoroughly, you would not even be fazed if gold were down even $300 or $400 in one day. The paper markets are losing all opposition to the fraudulent takedowns at the Comex because the longs realize they can not ever win against counter-parties with unlimited access to money from thin air. The real action is in the physical pricing of gold and silver and ever since gold was taken down from the $1000 level in February, dealer inventories have dried up and the premiums have expanded as well. That is just opposite of what you would expect in a free trading market. In the fiat money system we are under, they can also move the stock market up whenever they want simply by printing and injecting so you can expect more big bounces in the stock market along with the sentiment of "now everything is all right again".

The oppression of the British on the colonies did not end until they had a Boston Tea Party that alerted the British that taxation without representation would no longer be tolerated. It is time to let your representatives know that it is their days that are numbered not ours if CHANGE does not come soon. That is what was promised, wasn't it?
Looks more like what The Who sang about years ago, "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss..................WE WON'T BE FOOLED AGAIN! There is a movement to let our representatives know that we mean business now. Between April 1st and April 15th many Americans are mailing a tea bag to the White House to send a message. Rumor has it there will be enough tea in the White House for all of China.

There is strength in numbers and people are still largely unaware of what has been perpetrated but the message is spreading rapidly. Officials will attempt to throw some bones to the angry dogs that they feel are on a witch hunt. We will probably get some ridiculous prosecution of someone on the order of another Martha Stewart that will be expected to quell the need of the public for something to be "done" to someone. Don't be surprised when enough people start to complain that they do stop handing bailout money to the money powers. Next while they keep their kitty on the side, we can all watch everything implode and then when it does they can tell us it is our fault because we didn't want anymore bailouts. Then they come in with all the money they have kept for themselves and buy everything for a penny on the dollar. This is a well orchestrated deception that will continue until enough people see it for what it is and demand it stops. The players taking part should pay for the damage they have done. President Obama wants to take it from the people earning $250k and more when most of the money could be returned by a very small group of people by comparison.

If there are those angry types out there do not waste your time on the Martha Stewarts or even the Ben Bernankes or Alan Greenspans. They are merely the foot soldiers. If you're going to go on a witch hunt, start with The Council on Foreign Relations, The Trilateral commission, The Bilderbergs, The Club of Rome, and other such organizations. These are the movers and shakers that plan all that happens and you may even find a witch or two. If the people brought it to the source rather than the façade that has been put up in front of these money powers we might have a chance for honest money and a recovery of the United States. If this continues, expect a slave state with little opportunity to escape it beyond direct opposition. At least 90% of the money that has been plundered from this nation can be recovered intact from the relatively small group of people above. There are roughly 15 firms, (banks, brokers, and insurers) that make up the vast majority of reckless players in the $1 quadrillion + derivatives market. They largely owe most all of the losses to each other so instead of funneling trillions to them they should simply have been allowed to all fail and the vast majority of our problems would be behind us.

Our seventh President Andrew Jackson knew well what the problem was. After he threw out the bankers which formed the central bank of the day he soon became the first, (and last) President to pay off the national debt. Upon being elected he addressed the bankers:

"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! You are a den of vipers and thieves. I intend to rout you out, and by the grace of Eternal God, will rout you out."

Not much has changed regarding the character of bankers and we have been stuck with this lot since 1913. Andrew Jackson was successful in ridding the country of these vipers. Shortly after, Jackson was accosted with a pistol in his face. Whap!!!, the gun backfired by the grace of God. Jackson took his cane and beat the assailant senseless. He was a tough old bird and a man of extraordinary courage and character. We could certainly use one of his rare breed today, instead today we get smooth talkers that promise CHANGE because survey says it's a word we like to hear. No man can be expected to take on the extremity of the challenge today but if enough good men demanded it, it would happen. If you move up the chain there are a very few at the top pulling the strings. Nothing will change until they get the message loud and clear and one day they will. Virtually all of the nation's losses can be recouped from this relatively small clan of insiders by the 300 million Americans and billions of other citizens worldwide.
