  • If I loaned you $100 asking you to pay 5% interest, and I am the only source of legal tender in the country, where is the $5 interest payment going to come from? The only way to satisfy me for now is if you borrow more money! Then you're in debt more later on. This is how the Federal Reserve works, and why the national debt is $9 trillion. See Google Video "Money as Debt".

  • Amschel isn't the reason for Rothschild wealth. His son Nathan bought all the stocks in London dirt cheap during the war between england and Napoleon because the British believed that Napoleon was winning. When they found out Napoleon lost then Nathan was left holding all the stock and their wealth skyrocketed.

  • @Dionysius9 haha...9 trillion....the US wishes it had 9 trillion dollar debt

  • he is dropping big big big wisdom.

  • Our days are numbered... weather you think so or not...

    One of the most interesting stories I've ever seen about this man and his cohorts ... On the Hal Lindsey Report... right here in You Tube... Check this out... Just not believable.

  • @randommental Oh, wonderful; an idealistic snark...

  • @randommental And I wish I had a bigger slinky. But life doesn't work like that, and economics isn't about intentions...

  • nice. this guy is as sharp and cunning as he looks. He conveniently left out the scandals. The only way to be as rich as those type families is to play ball with them and they swing the big bats, so if you cant get- i mean BE dirty, then you cant be that rich. The vanderbilts were smothered out of their influence to a great extent, but the scandals of both families are probably uncountable and unknown at this point. The one minor small point this guy makes with inheritance is relevant though.

  • Rothschild family have 500 trillion dollars, federal reserve is one of his banks, they own all the central banks in the world....and yes with T trillions, the profit is from wars, oil and taxes around the world...
