8. We have to alter the private creation of money
Wed Sep 10, 2025, 08:36 AM

For hundreds of years now money has mostly been created "at interest" and nearly every major political assination has been to leaders who have challanged that. Both Lincoln and JFK created "green backs" currency created by the treasury and not by banks. Our current money ate Federal Reserve Notes. The Federal Reserve while it's directors are installed by our government is a private consortium of large banks. The fact that the interest is never made creates economic pressure to extract and exploit. I feel it drove colonialism, trans-oceanic slavery, and the rise of large scale wars.
