The profit is all generated from usury.
Combined with their mandate to create money out of thin air.
Money for centuries was real. With the removal of the gold standard it became a concept. The money we use now is really only an idea, or tokens, similar to pieces in a board game. Only the board game is owned and controlled by the "elite" who use it to give us our reality.
Modern history of money is quite fascinating. When the United States became a republic the memory of European repression, both religious and financial, was still fresh for the founding fathers. So they drew up the Constitution which gave it's citizens freedom that was unique. It's piece de resistance was the issuance of money by the elected government.
This was quite alarming for the financial powers in Europe and was echoed by an article in the London Times in 1865 :
If that mischievous financial policy which had its origin in the North American Republic during the late war in that country, should become indurated down to a fixture, then that Government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off its debts and be without debt. It will become prosperous beyond precedent in the history of the civilized governments of the world. The brains and wealth of all countries will go to North America. That government must be destroyed or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe.
Since then thngs have obviously changed a tad and the constitution that guaranteed unprecedented freedom is in tatters and the freedom is a ghost of it's former self. They have a central bank, the Federal Reserve, since 1913 and Americans are now enslaved by debt. Their dollar, originally a silver coin based on the Spanish dollar, now a token issued on a concept, is worth one hundred times less just short of one hundred years later.
Any wonder informed people are disillusioned and pissed off. When you get your head around the fact that our democracy is controlled by our "economy", that delightful City of London board game we play for forty plus hours a week, designed and foisted on us by descendants of the same folk who fought so hard and so dirty to take control of the United States.
Yeah, our job got rained off today so I don't get to roll a double six and collect a flat screen tv. I do get to use the NE that I am promised and you know what, I could not give a toss because I have no debt, don't watch telly and have a myriad of exciting things to do which tokens cannot buy!
