The objective behind this
bank was to receive special privilege to use the unjust fractional reserve
banking to print money and loan it to the government and industry. No money
could go into circulation without interest being paid to the bankers.
Fractional reserve
banking is very simple. It is simply a special privilege given to a man or
group of men to create credit out of thin air; by extending
this credit/debt to everyone else in society who does not have the same
privilege, and then collecting from society the money plus interest, they
become very rich without having to produce anything of value.
The basic mathematics
behind this system is very clear. If this system is left in place long
enough, the man or group who controls this system of debt creation will own
all the gold available in the nation. Once the supply of real money (gold)
is in his or their hands, this man or group of men becomes the master of the
entire nation. Why? Because this man or group of men controls the only
source of operating medium (money) available through which the nation
functions. Only the man who has the privilege of printing the money and
loaning it at interest can determine who gets special funding—his friends
and allies. Everyone else is limited to how much money they have access to;
therefore, after two or three generations, the friends and allies of this
"banker" will own all of the nation—just as America is now owned by a very
small cadre of very wealthy men.
How long this process
takes to work its way through the wealth of the nation depends upon how
successful the "banker" is in forcing, through bribery and corruption, the
restriction of the formal government's issuance of real money backed by gold
or silver. As the supply of real money shrinks, the people of the nation are
forced to rely on the creation of a fictitious debt by the privileged few to
a greater and greater extent, until finally, the only thing left is a
massive amount of "unpayable debt," created from nothing and consisting only
of the interest charged upon the fictitious debt, and collecting interest
for every moment of its existence. All for the benefit of the privileged,
who become the de facto (illegally usurped) government because
of the "money power" they wield.
Through the Bank of
England, the Rothschilds demanded a private bank in the United States to
hold the securities of the United States as the pledged assets to the Crown
of England in order to secure the debt to which our government had
defaulted. As one of his first acts, President Washington declared a
financial emergency. William Morris with the help of Alexander Hamilton,
Secretary of Treasury, heavily promoted the creation of a private bank to
service the debt to the international bankers. In 1791, Congress chartered
the first national bank for a term of 20 years, to hold the securities of
the same European bankers who had been holding the debts before
the war. The bankers loaned worthless, un-backed, non-secured printed money
to each other to charter this first bank. In December 12, 1791, the Bank of
the United States opened its doors in Philadelphia.
The holder of the
securities was the private bank. So under public international law, the
creditor nation forced the United States to establish a private bank to hold
the securities as the collateral for the national debt. James Madison had
warned, “History records that the money changers have used every form of
abuse, intrigue, deceit, and violent means possible to maintain their
control over governments by controlling money and its issuance.”
British Subversion, Titles of Nobility and
Treason
For the early decades of
US history, relations between the United States and Great Britain remained
strained. Their relationship deteriorated sharply with the outbreak of war
in Europe in 1803. Britain imposed a blockade on neutral countries such as
the United States. In addition, the British took American sailors from their
ships and forced them to serve in the British Navy. Concerned about the many
English spies and troublemakers, Congress passed an amendment to prevent
those who had English titles and connections from obtaining any seat in
government. Called the Titles of Nobility Act (TONA), it reads as
follows:
"If any citizen of the
United States shall accept, claim, receive, or retain any title of
nobility or honour, or shall without the consent of Congress, accept and
retain any present, pension, office, or emolument of any kind whatever,
from any emperor, king, prince, or foreign power, such person shall cease
to be a citizen of the United States, and shall be incapable of holding
any office of trust or profit under them, or either of them."
All "titles of nobility"
were prohibited in both Article VI of the Articles of Confederation (1777)
and in Article I, Section 9 of the Constitution of the United States (1778),
but there was no penalty. Although already prohibited by the Constitution,
an additional "title of nobility" amendment was deemed necessary and was
proposed in 1789, again in 1810, and finally ratified in 1819. But the
notice of ratification delivered to the Secretary of State, an attorney with
the title, “Esquire,” disappeared. As a result, there still is no penalty
for accepting titles or emoluments from foreign rulers today, just the
prohibition.
Clearly, the founding
fathers saw such a serious threat in "titles of nobility" and "honours,"
that anyone receiving them would be required to forfeit their citizenship.
Obviously the Amendment carried much more significance for our founding
fathers than is readily apparent today. They knew that our freedom could be
subverted from inside our government and had sought to prevent such a bitter
betrayal. Today most Senators and Congressmen, all Federal judges, and some
of our Presidents are attorneys who carry the title “Esquire” often
abbreviated as “Esq.” The Constitution still forbids this, nevertheless.
In Colonial America,
attorneys trained attorneys, but most held no "title of nobility" or
"honor." There was no requirement that one be a lawyer to hold the position
of district attorney, attorney general, or judge; a citizen's "counsel of
choice" was not restricted to a lawyer and there was no state or national
bar associations. The only organization that certified lawyers was the
International Bar Association (IBA), chartered by the King of England,
headquartered in London. Lawyers admitted to the IBA received the rank
"Esquire" - a "title of British nobility."
"Esquire” was the
principle title of nobility which the 13th Amendment ought to prohibit from
the United States. Why? Because the loyalty of "Esquire" lawyers was
suspect! Lawyers with an "Esquire" behind their names were agents of the
monarchy, members of an organization whose principle purposes were political
and regarded with the same wariness that some people today reserve for
members of the KGB or the CIA.
The archaic definition of
"honor" (as used when the 13th Amendment was ratified) meant anyone
"obtaining or having an advantage or privilege over another." A
contemporary example of an "honor" granted to only a few Americans is the
privilege of being a judge: Lawyers can be judges and exercise the
attendant privileges and powers, non-lawyers generally cannot. We address
the judge as, “your Honor.”
By prohibiting "honors,"
the missing, but now found, original 13th amendment prohibits any
advantage or privilege that would grant some citizens an equal opportunity
to achieve or exercise political power. Therefore, the second meaning
(intent) of the original 13th Amendment was to insure political equality
among all American citizens, by prohibiting anyone, even government
officials, from claiming or exercising a special privilege or power (an
"honor") over other citizens.
Both "esquire" and
"honor" would be key targets of the 13th Amendment even today, because,
while "titles of nobility" no longer apply now precisely as they did back in
the early 1800's, it is clear that an "esquire" or bar attorney receives far
better treatment in and by the courts as well as by the public at large in
general, whereas if you represent yourself (pro se) or speak
as a freeman (pro per), you are treated as though you were
rabble. Your opinions are of little importance in court and you are often
treated similarly by government officials. Because you are not "esquires" or
bar attorneys, you are considered to be a useless eater, a subject
“out of control.” The concept of "honor" remains relevant, possibly
more so today than at any previous time in U.S. history, for they, the
"honors," are greatly feared and even revered, even by the esquires who are
considered to be below them. Since the Original 13th Amendment
has never been repealed, all acts of government since 1819 are technically
null and void since most lawmakers, prohibited from participation in
government by the Constitution and who should even be stripped of their
right to be a US Citizen under TONA, have continued to interject themselves
into the political process.
When the people
discovered that European banking interests owned most of the United States
Bank they saw the sheer power of the banks and their ability to influence
representative government by economic manipulation and outright bribery. On
February 20, 1811, Congress therefore refused to renew the Bank's charter on
the grounds that the Bank was unconstitutional. Nathan Rothschild, of
the Bank of England, issued a fierce ultimatum: “Either the application for
the renewal of the charter is granted, or the United States will find itself
involved in a most disastrous war.” This led to the withdrawal of $7,000,000
in specie (money in coin) by European investors which in turn, precipitated
an economic recession, and the War of 1812. This "war" was punishment for
America refusing to do business on the terms of the International Banking
families of the House of Rothschild, through the first Bank of the United
States. Congress refused to let the National Bank renew its Charter.
