History repeats itself and this is one of the most  important reasons we should all know and understand our history, so that we do  not continue making the same mistakes over and over…and over and over again…  

Starting  as early as the 1700's in England, Central Banks were instituted to produce the  currency of an entire nation. Based on historical precedent, two specific  powers are inherent in central banking practice: the control of interest rates  and the control of the money supply, or inflation. The central bank does not  simply supply a government's economy with money, it loans it to them at  interest. Then through the use of increasing and decreasing of supply of money  the central bank regulates the value of the currency being issued. It is  critical to understand that the entire structure of this system can only  produce one thing in the long run: DEBT.

Most  recent, The Federal Reserve Act was signed in 1913 and the public was told that  the Federal Reserve System was an economic stabilizer and inflation and  economic crises were thing of the past. Well, as history has shown, nothing was  further from the truth.

Here  are what some great leaders have said throughout history regarding Central  Banks. Some were contributors who in the aftermath gave great regret to their  involvement or aide in instituting such on the people of their nation and  creating economic slavery.

There  is something behind the throne greater than the king himself"
  -Sir William Pitt, House of Lords, 1770-

"The  real truth of the matter is that a financial element in the large centers has  owned the government since the days of Andrew Jackson"
  -Franklin D. Roosevelt, US President, 1933-

"The  refusal of King George to allow the colonies to operate an honest money system,  which freed the ordinary man from clutches of the money manipulators was  probably the prime cause of the revolution"
  -Benjamin Franklin, Founding Father

"I  believe that banking institution are more dangerous than standing armies… If  the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of currency…  the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the  people of their property until their children wake up homeless on the continent  their fathers conquered"
  -Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826)

"If you want to remain slaves of the bankers and pay for  the costs of your own slavery, let them continue to create money and control  the nation's credit"
  -Sir Josiah Stamp (1880-1941)

"Our Great Industrial nation is controlled by its system  of credit. Our system of credit is privately concentrated. The growth of the  nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men... who  necessarily, by very reason of their own limitations, chill and check and  destroy genuine economic freedom."
  -Woodrow Wilson

"We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the  most completely controlled and dominated governments in the civilized world –no  government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote  of the majority, but a government by the opinion and the duress of small groups  of dominant men."
  -Woodrow Wilson

"Under the Federal Reserve Act, panics are scientifically  created. The present panic (1920) is the first scientifically created one,  worked out as we figure a mathematical equation."
  –Charles Lindbergh

"It was a carefully contrived occurrence, international  bankers sought to bring about a condition of despair, so that they might emerge  the rulers of us all."
  -Louis McFadden

"Give me control of a nation's money supply, and I care  not who makes its laws"
  -Mayer Amschel Rothschild, Founder of Rothschild Banking  Dynasty

We are in a very bad economic state and it looks like its  getting worse. Without education and understanding of how all this started we  can never finish it. Banks are creating NEW fees as the economy continues to  crumble. Gift cards come with hefty fees and not all are created equal. Now,  creditor firms are going to start charging for inactivity. Meaning, if you do  not use your card you can be charged a fee. That's right. Their justification  for implementing this? To slow THEIR default losses. All these new banking fees  being incepted while the nation is in its most vulnerable financial state in  decades.
