Preponderance of Pompous Preposterousness Why is that our government thinks they can INFUSE money into the financial markets for banks to loan to consumers and businesses, by taking out a trillion dollar loan. Banks already don't have money to loan, so how is loaning it to the government going to make more loans available to consumers and businesses? While you think about that, think about this. When I go home at the end of the day, with my daily wage in my pocket, that money is earned, not borrowed, right? So why do I, we, have to continue to pay interest on it? What I mean, is that for any dollar, to come into existence, it has to be purchased by the government treasury, at interest. T-bills, right? It then goes into circulation. Lincoln said that to pay off the government debt, was to give all the money, "dollars", back to the bankers. Leaving the American citizens with nothing to use as an exchange unit. Either our government is full of ignorant morons, or they are intently criminal and should be legally executed for massive fraud. It's the biggest scam in the history of the world. No wonder the national debt is so massive. And it makes it impossible to pay off the national debt. It just keeps incurring interest every day, and with every child born, more money is needed, to be put into the system, for the increases in population. We need to have an exchange currency that isn't thinned by population. We need wages that don't incur interest, on owned money that we earned, not borrowed. We need a monetary unit that's not based on debt from its inception. Here is a question that I have, if there is someone who can answer. If the gov't sells a t-bill to create money for the system. Say $100.00. You buy it for $75.00, and over 5 years it earns interest, and you then cash it in for $100.00 The gov't only received $75.00 to begin with. But somehow, is able to give you $100, when it only created $75.00 put in the system 5 years ago. It seems to me that the first person to cash their bond gets an extra $25 dollars that never went into the system in the first place, and the last person gets stuck with vapor. In comparison, the treasury issues a bond to the federal reserve, say $100 million. But has to pay back $105 million. Did the federal reserve print up $105 million, or $100 million? Because if they only printed $100 million, where do we get the extra 5 million in interest that was never printed, to pay back the loan? And don't say, "other people's interest", because it hasn't been created to begin with. These are tough questions, and show that I'm not a macro economist. But all the complicated banker B.S. aside, it is an obviously fundamentally broken system. Designed by private bankers to skim off the whole entire monetary system of the United States.
