WHY A BANKRUPT AMERICA?

We know why! (And, it's not what you've been told.)

Did you know that the Federal Reserve Bank is a private corporation? That's right!

1. The Fed is not federal. It has no reserves.

2. Do you think your money, the funds paid to the IRS, go to pay the bills of the United States Government and to rebuild our infrastructure? Think again!

3. The privately owned Fed has never been audited. Why?

4. Do the Fed and its collection agency, the Internal Revenue Service violate your constitutional rights? You bet!

5. Does the Executive Branch and Congress know about this fraud?

You say you want to take back America? Before you can accomplish this, you need to learn the real reason our Nation is broke.

WHY A BANKRUPT AMERICA?

The Truth, The Solution

Dear Concerned American:

You know something is wrong in this country. You wonder why the national debt keeps going up instead of down, despite the bushel barrel trillions of dollars spent on this debt. You wonder why more and more taxation keeps producing more and more unemployment and deficit instead of the other way around. Why?

By reading this booklet, you will discover that the Federal Reserve System (the Fed) is privately owned and receives no funding from the U.S. Congress (Lewis vs. U.S. 680 Federal Reporter, 2nd Series, page 1240). What exactly does this mean? Chapter One of this booklet spells it out in plain language.

By reading this booklet, you will discover that there is no law either enacted by the U.S. Congress or contained in the U.S. Constitution that authorizes a personal income tax. Yet, tens of thousands of Americans have lost their homes, lost their businesses and been thrown in jail for a law that does not exist. Do we even need a personal income tax? No. Chapter One of this booklet spells it out in plain language.

Chapter Two of this booklet defines three of the mechanisms currently in place which are directly tied to the Fed and the personal income tax. Every American in this country deserves to know the truth that has been withheld and that a solution and a game plan exist. Chapter Three of this booklet provides an instrument (petition) by which We the People can once and for all bring a sensible solution to our economic woes in America. We can begin putting our people back to work and cleaning up the corruption which currently exists in Washington, D.C.

This is an American Patriot movement not meant to promote any political party or agenda, only to expose the truth. You don't have to join any club organization or send in money for any annual membership. POWER is a First Amendment grassroots organization, period. We are not affiliated with any group, club, or organization, nor does POWER purport to be in the position to give legal advice on the Internal Revenue Service. Scams or money-making schemes that enjoin POWER do so in a fraudulent manner. POWER is a movement, by, of, and for Americans. This is not more talk -- this booklet brings action. There is no hidden agenda in POWER.

Please read through the booklet. There are references following Chapter Two. The Petition for Redress of Grievances to the U.S. Congress and personal interaction with our elected representatives are our only legal weapons to correct this travesty against We the People. This is no ordinary petition, as you will see.

Chapter One

The Fed -- The Biggest Fraud in America's History

Exposing The Fraud

Let's begin with this mysterious entity known as the Federal Reserve Banking System. This entity is not part of our government. It is privately owned by a select group of private banking cartels. Its express purpose is to fleece the American people by stealing our money under the pretext of a central banking system which calls itself federal.

The U.S. Constitution, Article 1  8 states:

The Congress shall have Power To... coin Money, regulate the Value thereof....

This authority is vested only in the U.S. Congress. On April 19, 1982, the U.S. Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit Court, ruled that the Federal Reserve Banks are privately owned, locally controlled corporations (Lewis vs. U.S., supra as mentioned above).

Let us examine in the words of several knowledgeable, credible individuals just how this system really works:

Chairman Louis T. McFadden of the House Banking and Currency Committee, addressed the House on June 10, 1932:
"Some people think the Federal Reserve Banks are U.S. government institutions. They are not government institutions. They are private credit monopolies which prey upon the people of the U.S. for the benefit of themselves and their foreign and domestic swindlers, and rich and predatory money lenders."

75 Congressional Record 12595-12603

In a speech delivered before the Washington Chamber of Commerce in 1921, William P.G. Harding, Governor of the Federal Reserve Board, stated:
"From a legal standpoint these banks are private corporations, organized under a special act of Congress, namely, the Federal Reserve Act. They are not in the strict sense of the word Government banks."

If Congress has the right under the Constitution to issue paper money, it was given them to be used by themselves, not to be delegated to individuals or to corporations.

President Andrew Jackson.

At 6:00 p.m., on December 23, 1913, while Congress was out of session, three Senators took it upon themselves to, by voice vote, pass the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. These three individuals handed over America's future and our economic system to a handful of private domestic individuals and foreign banking interests. Our Founding Fathers would have shouted, "Treason!" This special act by Congress in 1913 is in direct violation of the 16th Corpus Juris Secundum, Section 141, which states that Congress cannot delegate or sign over its authority to any individual, corporation or foreign nation. Yet that is exactly what occurred in December of 1913 by a select group of individuals in the U.S. Congress. That special act was the biggest fraud in the history of this country.

It is mathematically impossible to pay off the national debt. In examining the origin of money under this central banking system, according to William H. Ferkler, Manager of Public Affairs at The Department of Treasury, Bureau of Engraving & Printing in Washington, D.C.:
"As we have advised, the Federal Reserve is currently paying the Bureau approximately $23 for each 1,000 notes printed. This does include the cost of printing, paper, ink, labor, etc. Therefore, 10,000 notes of any denomination, including the $100 note would cost the Federal Reserve $230.  In addition, the Federal Reserve must secure a pledge of collateral equal to the face value of the notes."

The Federal Reserve, by printing these notes into existence at a total cost of $230 to the Federal Reserve, this banking cartel -- not the government of We the People -- thereby obtains a pledge of collateral equal to their face value, namely $1 million. This pledge is made to the Reserve cartel by Congress, and the collateral which Congress pledges is the land, labor and assets of the American people. What a racket! We rent funny money from the private Fed that is so debt laden, we can never have a balanced budget or pay off this rent, even if we all lived to be one million years old!

This private entity (the Fed) was incorporated in 1914 and has been slowly but surely driving our nation into our current state of bankruptcy. Simply stated: The Fed creates money as debt. The Fed creates money out of thin air. This is accomplished at the stroke of a pen when the members of the Federal Reserve System make loans to the government, to the banks, to businesses and to individuals. This debt money is the money supply.

The Federal Reserve System's banks charge usury on the created debt money. We American citizens are obligated to repay this debt money plus the usury. However, the money to pay the usury on the debt is never created within the system. Loan repayments to banks reduce the money supply. To keep the money supply from shrinking, more borrowing is necessary. It is mathematically impossible to pay off the aggregate debt principle plus the aggregate usury.

In a futile attempt to avoid the day of reckoning, borrowers are forced to take on increasing amounts of debt to pay usury. This escalates debt at an exponential rate until borrowers are forced into bankruptcy. Individuals, companies and governments are caught in this same trap. The related consequences are: involuntary unemployment, inflation, huge usury rates and the calculated loss of our inherited freedoms and property.

In 1933, the United States first declared bankruptcy, as expressed in Roosevelt's Executive Orders 6073, 6102, 6111, and 6260. This information is also confirmed in House JR 192 of June 5, 1933, and in Percy vs. U.S., 294 U.S. 330-381, 79 L.Ed. 912 (1935), and in 31 U.S.C. 5112, 5119 and 12 U.S.C. 95a.

The bankrupt U.S. went into receivership. In 1913, America was turned over, via receivership, and reorganized in favor of its creditors -- the bankers -- a handful of criminals. Recorded intent from the beginning was to plunder, bankrupt, conquer, and enslave the plum of the free world -- America -- into their New World Order.

Again, on March 17, 1993, James Trafficant, Member of Congress, stated in the Congressional Record, at page 1303H: "Mr. Speaker, we are now in Chapter 11."

We should heed the wise words of Daniel Webster:
"A disordered currency is one of the greatest political evils. It undermines the virtues necessary for the support of the social system, and encourages propensities destructive to its happiness. It wars against industry, frugality and economy, and it fosters evil spirits of extravagance and speculation. Of all the contrivances for cheating the laboring classes of mankind, none has been more effectual than that which deludes them with paper money."

Congressional Record, March 4, 1846

This is what we now have, and if We the People don't force Congress to rectify the matter, the whole house of paper money is going to fall down around our heads in a few short years. The ultimate mathematical equation is complete and total bankruptcy for all but the elite few.  Tens of thousands of Americans have been begging Congress after Congress to stop this fraud for over 30 years. All we have received is more and more taxation to feed this monster and the debt it creates.

Lewis T. McFadden, Chairman of the House Banking Commission and Member of Congress, speaking about the international financial conspirators during the very time they were taking over the monetary control of America:
"We have in this country one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Banks, hereinafter called the Fed. They are not government institutions. They are private monopolies which prey upon the People of the United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign and domestic swindlers; rich and predatory moneylenders."
McFadden died mysteriously in 1936 after three attempts on his life.

George W. Malone, U.S. Senator from Nevada speaking before Congress in 1957 alluded to the families that secretly own the Federal Reserve Bank and control the finances of the U.S.:
"I believe that if the people of this nation fully understood what Congress has done to them over the past 49 years, they would move on Washington: they would not wait for an election... It adds up to a preconceived plan to destroy the economic and social independence of the United States."

By the year 1995, 100% of every federal income tax dollar you are coerced to pay will go just to service the interest on the national debt. It cannot be done!

The actual deficits are almost twice as large as those admitted by the government. So why hasn't our economy collapsed? Because the American people still have confidence in 'the system.' The heart of the system depends on borrowing to fund the budget deficits each year. The interest on a $3 trillion debt amounts to $240 billion annually, or about 40 percent of all personal income taxes paid. When the debt swells to $20 trillion in nine years or so, the annual interest will be $1.6 trillion, or about 200 percent of all personal income taxes projected for that year (at a 33 percent rate).

Larry Burkett, The Coming Economic Earthquake, page 90.
"We have yet to pay one dime toward the principal of this alleged debt. Because of the modern banking miracle of compounding interest, this debt continues to rise unabated. Whose debt is it, anyway? Is this what you work your fingers to the bone for -- to pay usury to a private group of bankers who make up the Fed? Some of its stockholders are identified as: Rothschilds of London and Berlin; Lazard Brothers of Paris; Israel Moses Seif of Italy; Kuhn, Loeb and Warburg of Germany; and the Lehman Brothers, Goldman, Sachs, and the Rockefeller families of New York. The stockholders are not you nor I, not America, not the U.S. government. They are a consortium of private international banking families and their stockholders!"

The Federal Reserve System takes in roughly one trillion dollars yearly. Yet, a manipulated and cowardly Congress gives them special exemption from paying any taxes on their illegally obtained income. They pay only real estate taxes while we pay to make them rich beyond your wildest imagination, and Americans slide further and further into personal bankruptcy and despair.

The Fed violates your 13th Amendment rights by placing We the People into involuntary servitude. By forcing us to use an illegal medium of worthless currency, indebted with interest that can never be paid back, we are placed into involuntary servitude to these private individuals who own the Fed and its branch banks.

"This Act establishes the most gigantic trust on earth. When the President signs this Act the invisible government by the Money Power, proven to exist by the Money Trust Investigation, will be legalized. The new law will create inflation whenever the trusts want inflation. From now on depressions will be scientifically created."
-- Charles A. Lindberg, Sr. at the time of thepassage of the Federal Reserve Act in 1913.

The Federal Reserve System was Planned in Secrecy.

"Despite my views about the value to society of greater publicity for the affairs of corporations, there was an occasion, near the close of 1910, when I was as secretive -- indeed, as furtive -- as any conspirator... our secret expedition to Jekyl Island as the occasion of the actual conception of what eventually became the Federal Reserve System."
-- Frank Vanderlip, The Saturday Evening Post, February 9, 1935, page 25.

Colonel Edward Mandell House, chief architect of the Council on Foreign Relations and author of a book advocating "socialism as dreamed by Karl Marx," is also characterized as "the unseen guardian angel" of the Federal Reserve Act, according to House's biographer Charles Seymour in The Intimate Papers of Colonel House.

As a matter of fact, On November 23, 1933, FDR, in a letter to House, stated, "The real truth of the matter is, and you and I know, that a financial element in the large centers has owned the government of the U.S. since the days of Andrew Jackson. History depicts Andrew Jackson as the last truly honorable and incorruptible American President."

The Federal Reserve is Independent in its Operations.

"Neither Presidents, Congressmen, nor Secretaries of the Treasury direct the Federal Reserve. In the matters of money, the Federal Reserve directs them."
-- Gary Allen, None Dare Call It Conspiracy.

"In the United States we have, in effect, two governments... We have the duly constituted Government... Then we have an independent, uncontrolled and uncoordinated government in the Federal Reserve System, operating the money powers which are reserved to Congress by the Constitution."
-- Congressman Wright Patman

The Federal Reserve is a Government Granted Private Monopoly.

"By law, the seven members of the Federal Reserve Board are appointed by the President for a term of fourteen years each. In spite of the incredible length of these appointments, nevertheless, they are supposed to create the illusion that the people, acting through their elected leaders, have some voice in the nation's monetary policies. In practice, however, every President since the beginning of the Federal Reserve System has appointed only those men who were congenial to the financial interests of the international banking dynasties. There have been no exceptions."
-- G. Edward Griffin, The Capitalist Conspiracy, page 17.

Henry Ford, founder of the Ford Motor Company, commenting on the privately owned Federal Reserve scam:
"It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning."

The Federal Reserve Has Never Been Audited.

In its 60-year history, the Federal Reserve System has never been subjected to a complete, independent audit, and it is the only important agency that refuses to consent to an audit by the Congress' agency, the General Accounting Office... GAO audits of the Federal Reserve will, moreover, fill the glaring gap that now exists in our information about the Fed's activities and programs. As things now stand, the only information that we get on programs of the Fed is what the Fed itself wants us to have.

Congressman Wright Patman, Congressional Record, May 5, 1975:
"Ask yourself: How can an alleged agency of the federal government of the United States operate for 80 years without ever being audited? Simple. Since the Fed is privately owned, our Congress does not have the power to enforce an audit."

In the September 15, 1993, edition of The Wall Street Journal, Milton Friedman, Nobel laureate in economics and research fellow at the Hoover Institute on the Fed: "... my 'extreme' proposal is to abolish it..."

What is Money?

"The Congress shall have Power To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures."
-- United States Constitution, Article 1,  Section 8.

"No State shall... coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts." -- United States Constitution, Article 1,  Section 10.

Precious metals such as gold and silver have been the most highly prized means of monetary exchange for many centuries. They are honest money. By mining the Earth, one exchanges his God-given talents and resources for wealth. That wealth can, in turn, be exchanged for the goods and services honestly produced by another's talents and resources. The Free Coinage Act of 1792 dramatically simplified the process of issuing a standard coin into circulation. At no cost, the individual could take his silver or gold dust, shavings, or bullion to the mint, and have it melted down and pressed into coin. Now it was guaranteed to be a standard weight and purity.

In the United States Code at Title 12,  Section 152:
"Lawful money of the United States shall be construed to mean gold and silver coin..."

Black's Law Dictionary cites the definition of money as:
"Coins and paper currency used as a circulating medium of exchange, and does not embrace notes, bonds, or evidence of debt..."

What we really see from these definitions is that paper cannot be money. What we carry in our pockets -- Federal Reserve Notes -- are disqualified as money, because they are notes. A note is an IOU -- an evidence of debt. It is not money! Why, then, do we call it money? Have we been tricked?

The Free Coinage Act of 1792 specified money to be gold or silver coin. The denomination was to be based on weight. A dollar and all other coins were to be at least 90% pure. The dollar is specified as:
"Gold -- 25.8 grainsSilver -- 412.5 grains"

Between revenues generated from loaning to private banks at a set interest rate and revenues generated from excise taxes, military sales, reinstituting tariffs, etc., the government of our nation does did not need to charge one penny in personal federal income tax. The personal income tax is socialistic in design and goes against everything the Founding Fathers of this nation believed in and created the Constitution for -- to allow us taxation with representation and to never allow private or foreign interests to control our money systems.

Recall the words of Thomas Jefferson:
"Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental opinion of a day. But a series of oppressions, begun at a distinguished period, and pursued unalterably through every change of ministers (administrations), too plainly proves a deliberate systematic plan of reducing us to slavery."

Is this not exactly the plan implemented with the so-called Federal Reserve Act of 1913 and the creation of the income tax?

Abraham Lincoln stated:
"The privilege of creating and issuing money is not only the supreme prerogative of Government, but is the Government's greatest creative opportunity. By the adoption of these principles, the taxpayers will be saved immense sums of interest."

The Income Tax

Why was a personal, progressive income tax placed upon We the People in 1913 -- the same year as the Fed came into being? How else could the kingpins of the Fed finance all this usury charged against bogus currency? Simple. Start taxing the people and calling this illegal scam a national debt.

Contrary to IRS opinion and the propaganda espoused by the insiders, the 16th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was never ratified. Bill Benson and Red Beckman, two dedicated American patriots, went to 48 states' legislatures and discovered something very shocking: Only three states voted for the ratification of the 16th Amendment! Their exhaustively researched document, The Law That Never Was, Volumes 1 & 2, demonstrates beyond a shadow of a doubt that the 16th Amendment was never properly ratified. It was simply declared to be in effect by President Taft's Secretary of State, Philander Knox.

Title 26 is called the Internal Revenue Code. Even though Americans believe they are law in the 50 states of the Union, they are not. Deceptive statements by IRS spokesmen and other propagandists have created great confusion as to whether these limitations on direct taxes are in still in effect. Some incorrectly claim that the 16th Amendment (the income tax amendment) changed the constitutional limitations on a direct taxes and authorized an income tax as a direct tax without apportionment. The U.S. Supreme Court rejected these claims in the case of Brushaber v. Union Pacific R.R. Co., 240 US 1, (1916), when they ruled that the 16th Amendment created no new power of taxation and that it did not change the constitutional limitations which forbid any direct taxation of individuals.

NCBA Bulletin, May 1988

The Federal Tax Lien Act of 1966, P.L. 89-719 legislative history, page 3722 states: "The entire taxing and monetary systems are hereby placed under the Uniform Commercial Code."

On page three of your 1992 Forms and Instructions book issued by the Internal Revenue Service, the Commissioner of the IRS states in paragraph two, sentence one: "You are among the millions of Americans who comply with the tax law voluntarily."

The American Heritage Dictionary defines voluntarily as:  (1) Arising from one's own free will; (2) Acting on one's own initiative; (3) Acting or serving in a specified capacity willingly and without constraint.

If the Commissioner of the IRS states that We the People comply with their law voluntarily, why is it that those who do not comply voluntarily are prosecuted, bankrupted and thrown in prison?  Why are Americans forced to surrender their rights under the supreme law of the land, the U.S. Constitution? Because most decent, good Americans are unaware of their true rights regarding the Internal Revenue Service.

Being coerced to sign and submit a tax return violates your Fifth Amendment rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution. As soon as you sign and submit a tax return, you give the IRS license to use this information against you in a court of law. Unconstitutional! The Fifth Amendment states you cannot be forced to give incriminating evidence against yourself. Why are 110 million taxpayers putting up with this from 535 people in the Congress? This is our country, We the People!

Do we really need a personal income tax to fund the essential functions of our government?  Let us take a look at the numbers provided by the Department of Treasury and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) as a result of a Freedom of Information Act request in February, 1993:

Income Tax Collected in 1992, $476,500,000,000

Deficit, $766,668,000,000

National debt (on-budget figures; not available for off-budget), $4,200,000,000,000

Let's look at the revenues and expenditures without calculating an income tax into the equation.,

Receipts without the personal income tax, $615,227,000,000

Outlays (including the phony national debt,) current spending without cuts, including social security, $1,381,895,000,000

Eliminate phony "national debt", $350,000,000,000

Eliminate Medicare/Medicaid; implement national health care program funded by excise tax., $292,000,000,000

Eliminate NEA, Foreign Aid, Immigration. Eliminate government agencies that should be privatized., $250,000,000,000

SURPLUS, $125,332,000,000

Without significant cost-cutting measures, the income tax picture is looking more bleak all the time. At present, taking all forms of taxation, licenses, permits, fees, duties, excises, etc., the average American can expect to pay the government some 64% in taxes! The new euphemism for additional taxation that we hear coming from Washington is contribution. How much more can they realistically expect us to contribute? Current OMB projections place 1997 income tax revenues at $687.9 billion. That is a 45% increase over our present figures!

While this appears to be a simplistic approach, one can see that with just a few changes, things can be turned around. Naturally, a transition period for converting our monetary supply and tax reform will be required, but nothing can happen until the U.S. Congress introduces the specific legislation to begin the process. Let us pursue the consequences of eliminating the personal income tax:

You immediately infuse the economy with about a 1/2 trillion dollars in disposable income -- every year.

Americans start spending.

Employers hire.

A thriving and dynamic job market that would clean out the unemployment lines within a few short months.

Why has America suffered such massive layoffs (besides the insane immigration and free-for-all trade policies)? As We the the People are taxed and taxed and taxed, our disposable income for anything other than necessities has continued to shrink. What is the result of this?  Employers have less and less demand for their goods and services, so they are required to lay workers off.

As Americans continue to try and meet these immoral tax levels, they need more and more income to offset these tax burdens. What is the result of this?  Higher and higher wages which drive the cost to the consumer farther and farther out of reach.

What happens if We the People allow this immoral, unconstitutional, progressive personal income tax to continue? More and more unemployment as Americans will continue to see their disposable income go towards more and more taxation to fund more and more government. Mr. Clinton wants to tax us to generate $30 billion to create more government jobs. The government should not create jobs. This continues to perpetuate government bureaucracy that provides no real tangible return to the taxpayer. In a socialistic state, the state provides jobs, owns the farms, etc. This is what America is heading for unless we put a stop to it.

If $30 billion will create 550,000 jobs, just think what dumping a 1/2 trillion into the economy will do! Look at what tax-and-spend has done to America over the past 40 years. Are you willing to continue down this path?

Numerous studies show that from 25 to 55 percent of women currently in the work force would rather be homemakers for their families. They want to stay home and raise tomorrow's society. Eliminating the personal income tax would allow moms to stay home and open up that portion of the job market in new jobs for other Americans. It would also help eliminate some of the horrific child care problems we often hear of in this country.

We the People have been screaming at Congress and past administrations for years to stop programs like foreign aid, immigration, and so on. Our pleas have fallen on deaf ears. Despite all the propaganda about foreign aid, nowhere in the U.S. Constitution is this justified, nor was it even desired by our Founding Fathers.

"The great rule of conduct for us, in regard to foreign nations is, in extending our commercial relations to have with them as little political connections as possible. It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances, with any portion of the foreign world." --  George Washington.

It is absolutely unconscionable and morally derelict to allow American citizens in this country to have to decide between turning on the heater in the winter versus buying groceries for the week. Our Congress, meanwhile, doles out $58 million in foreign aid to King Hussein of Jordan or $4 billion in aid to Yeltsin. Russia has tremendous deposits of gold and silver they are not even mining. The deficit reduction plan just passed by Congress in August of 1993, through strong-armed tactics, is just another boondoggle that will reduce NOTHING. The usury to the private Fed will continue to grow by $1.5 trillion.

The pork spending in Congress, which represents more Constitutional violations, will continue unchecked. We the People will continue to shell out billions to Yeltsin and company, when Russia has billions of carats in diamonds that they refuse to sell because it is their national treasury. These foreign nations take care of their people first, while the U.S. Congress and the Executive Branch allow Americans to go without. Then they give our assets away on a silver platter. Enough is enough! We have heard all the political justifications, now we want our government to govern with our consent. (You will learn in Chapter Two of this book, just why all this foreign aid and permanent alliances have been created outside of our Union.)

The question is -- Why do 110 million Americans put up with this?  Do you want to force Congress to do something they have been unwilling to do because of their own special interests for the past 40 years? Balance the budget, and reduce the deficit? No problem. Take away the income tax. There will be no more pork money, no more foreign aid, no immigration, no National Endowment for the Arts, and none of the billions and billions and billions in other wasteful spending.

Congress has been saying for 40 years they will reduce the budget by reducing the size of government. Has it happened? Do you really believe it is going to happen unless we force the issue?  We the People are the masters. The U.S. Congress are our servants.  That is why they are called public servants. It's time we stopped being "sheeple" and put a stop to the destruction of our great nation. It is long past time that We the People rise up and assume our role as leaders. "If the people will lead, the leaders will follow." We have the truth and the U.S. Constitution as our legal weapon. If America returned to Constitutional government and currency, we would once again be a free nation instead of slaves to a private group of bankers.

Recall these words from a very wise man named Thomas Jefferson:
"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. Already they have raised up a moneyed aristocracy that has set the government at defiance. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people to whom it properly belongs."

The personal income tax is the second plank of the Communist Manifesto:

 "A heavy progressive or graduated income tax."

The income tax is designed to break the will and the spirit of the people, making it easy for an oppressive government to subjugate the masses. In this nation, one is no longer rewarded for hard work and entrepreneurial drive. Work harder, work smarter, earn more money, and you'll get whacked with a punitive high tax bracket. Ever wonder why it is so hard to get good service anymore? In undermining our motivation, our enthusiasm, our pride, it is the hope of the banking insiders that the income tax will so erode our will that we the American People will simply shuffle into the New World Order without a whimper. This statement leads us into Chapter Two of this booklet so that all Americans have an understanding of the whole picture.

Chapter Two

The Fed and the New World Order

In order for Americans to fully understand the treachery of the plans laid for the death of our Republic, we decided to make this booklet one that truly informs Americans of what is planned. Some of you may or may not have heard of the entities listed on the next few pages. The American Patriot movement has been monitoring and studying these issues for years and we provide the following, factual explanation about said organizations and their principals. In the brief space allowed in this booklet, we examine the United Nations, the Council on Foreign Affairs (CFR) and the Trilateral Commission.

The New World Order

Justice Felix Frankfurter, a U.S. Supreme Court Justice, had this to say: "The real rulers in Washington are invisible and exercise power from behind the scenes."

John F. Hylan, Mayor of New York (1918-1925) said: "The real menace of our Republic is the invisible government which, like a giant octopus, sprawls its slimy legs over our cities, states and nation."

What were these men talking about?  They were talking about the formation of the New World Order (NWO). Many of you have heard this term, especially from the lips of George Bush. On February 1, 1992, Bush stated:
"My vision of a New World Order foresees a U.N. with a revitalized peacekeeping function. It is the sacred principles enshrined in the U.N. charter to which we henceforth pledge our allegiance."

The New World Order means global government -- one government ruled by the United Nations. It means one banking system -- the Federal Reserve. It means one religion shall be foisted upon Americans. It means the end of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. It means socialism! John E. Rankin, U.S. Congressman stated: "The United Nations is the greatest fraud in history. It's purpose is to destroy the United States."

According to the U.N. World Constitution:
"The age of nations must end. The government of the nations have decided to order their separate sovereignties into one government to which they will surrender their arms."

In the United States Program for General and Complete Disarmament in a Peaceful World, the program's Goals & Objectives are outlined very clearly. Here are a few of them that should shake the very foundation of every good American:
    "The overall goal of the U.N. is a free, secure, and peaceful world of independent states adhering to common standards of justice and international conduct and subjecting the use of force to the rule of law; a world which has achieved general complete disarmament under effective international control; and a world in which adjustment to change takes place in accordance with the principles of the U.N. In order to make possible the achievement of that goal, the program sets forth the following specific objectives toward which nations should direct their efforts:
    "The disbanding of all national armed forces and the prohibition of their re-establishment in any form whatsoever other than those required to preserve internal order and for contributions to a U.N. Peace Force;
    "The armed forces of the U.S. and Soviet Union would be limited to 2.1 million men each... levels of armaments would be correspondingly reduced and their production would be limited;
    "Measures would be taken to develop and strengthen U.N. arrangements for arbitration, for the development of international law and the the establishment of a permanent U.N. peace force;
    "The dismantling or the conversion to peaceful uses of certain military bases and facilities wherever located [look at the many military bases that have recently been recommended for closure];
    "States would retain only those forces, non-nuclear armaments, and establishments required for the purpose of maintaining internal order; they would also support and provide agreed manpower for a U.N. peace force;
    "As states relinquish their arms, the U.N. must be progressively strengthened in order to improve its capacity to assure international security."

Zbigniew Brzeninski, National Security Advisor to Carter and four other presidents, Executive Director of the Trilateral Commission and a Marxist speaks of the NWO):
"The technetronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values."

Peter Hoagland, Nebraska State Senator on radio in 1983:
"Fundamental, Bible-believing people do not have the right to indoctrinate their children in their religious beliefs because we, the state, are preparing them for the year 2000, when America will be part of a one-world order global society and their children will not fit in."

The late Carroll Quigley (Bill Clinton's mentor), Professor of History at Georgetown University, member of the CFR), stated in his book, Tragedy & Hope:
"The CFR is the American Branch of a society which originated in England and believes national boundaries should be obliterated and one-world rule established."

In other words, the CFR's activities are treasonous to our U.S. Constitution. They mean to put an end to the United States of America and make our nation part of their global government scheme. One only has to read their own publication, Foreign Affairs, to get a first hand lesson in their treachery.

Rowan Gaither, President of the Ford Foundation in 1954:
"We operate here under directives which emanate from the White House.... The substance of the directives under which we operate is that we shall use our grant making power to alter life in the U.S. so that we can comfortably be merged with the Soviet Union."

James Paul Warburg, foreign agent of the Rothschild Dynasty, major player in the Federal Reserve Act scam, boasted confidently on February 17, 1950 before the U.S. Senate:
"We shall have World government, whether or not we like it. The only question is whether World government will be achieved by conquest or consent."

In order to implement these plans financed by revenues stolen from the American people via the IRS and the Fed, there are other organizations besides the CFR that represent a clear and urgent danger to carrying out this one world government, banking and monetary system, and uniform code of religion.

The final nail in the economic coffin of America (besides the implementation of a socialistic "National Health Care Reform" program) is NAFTA. The North American Fraud and Theft Agreement is not about improving the standard of living for our neighbors south of our border. Henry Kissinger, globalist and New World Order kingpin, stated it quite succinctly in a special article for the Los Angeles Times Syndicate during the summer of 1993. Kissinger stated: "It [NAFTA] will represent the most creative step toward a New World Order... But the stakes are too high to wait much longer."

In 1848, Karl Marx stated: "Free trade breaks up old nationalities... in a word, the free trade system hastens social revolution [socialism]."

In 1958, Senator George Malone of Nevada:
"The global theory of free trade is siphoning off America's wealth and bringing her economy to the level of others. The theory is displacing American workers who otherwise would be employed."

So you see, America, the real truth about what is going on behind your back does not even resemble the pablum being spoon-fed to you by the CFR-controlled establishment media.

The United Nations

On September 24, 1993, commentator Paul Harvey, during his daily dose of common sense and intellectual opinions, laid out the real truth about the group of communist thugs who rule and control the United Nations. Mr. Harvey pulled no punches about exposing the candy-coated myth of the United Nations.

One would think by listening to all the propaganda about the United Nations that they are some sort of benevolent, peaceful organization. Never in the history of the United Nations has it stood for anything but killing and violence. They have never kept peace anywhere on this globe. Their sole function is to replace the U.S. military -- dissolve all four branches of our armed forces. Their allegiance is only to the United Nations Charter which does not recognize the U.S. Constitution. This body is made up almost exclusively of communists and leaders of the bloodiest regimes on this globe.

Their history and operating agenda is apparent to anyone who takes the time to sincerely and with an open mind, research the facts of this organization, separating truth from myth. Bilderberger participants (another group committed to one-world domination) in 1992 called for "conditioning the public to accept the idea of a U.N. army that could, by force, impose its will on the internal affairs of any nation."

Henry Kissinger said at this Bilderberger meeting:
"Today, Americans would be outraged if U.N. forces entered Los Angeles to restore order. Tomorrow, they will be grateful."

On January 25, 1993, Warren Christopher, the new Secretary of State under Bill Clinton stated on CNN:
"We must get the New World Order on track and bring the U.N. into its correct role in regards to the United States."

Mikhail Gorbachev stated to the Politiburo in November of 1987:
"Gentlemen, Comrades, do not be concerned about all you hear about glasnost and perestroika and democracy in the coming years. These are primarily for outward consumption. There will be no significant internal change within the Soviet Union, other than for cosmetic purposes. Our purpose is to disarm the Americans and let them fall asleep."

Norman Thomas, for many years the U.S. Socialist Presidential candidate, proclaimed: "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of 'liberalism', they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened."

In 1958, Cleon Skoussen, former FBI agent, revealed in his book, "The Naked Communist", the long-term goals of the communist agenda. This information is also contained not only in the Congressional Record (August, 1963), but also in the Communist Manifesto itself. For the sake of brevity, only a few of those goals are listed here:

1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.

2. Develop the illusion that total disarmament by the U.S. would be a demonstration of moral strength.

3. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.

4. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of communist domination.

Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khruschev's promise in 1955 to settle the German questions by free elections under supervision of the United Nations.

5. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the United Nations.

6. Promote the United Nations as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set set as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces.

7. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.

8. Do away with all loyalty oaths.

9. Capture one or both of the political parties of the U.S.

10. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.

11. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current communist propaganda. Get control of the teachers associations.

12. Gain control of all student newspapers.

13. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.

14. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV and motion pictures.

15. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them censorship and a violation of free speech and free press.

16. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures and TV.

17. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as normal, natural and healthy.

18. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with social religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a religious crutch.

19. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principles of separation of church and state.

20. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

21. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part in the big picture.

22. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the communist apparatus.

23. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.

24. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.

25. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents.

26. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use united force to solve economic, political and social problems.

Each American can evaluate individually just how far these goals have been achieved since this information was revealed in 1958. As a matter of fact, another mechanism currently being pushed by the NWO people is to convene a Constitutional Convention (Con-Con). At this meeting, the U.S. Constitution is to be nullified, the Republic of the United States abolished and We the People will then go under the authority of the United Nations Charter and the One World Order. Currently, thousands of dedicated Americans are making enormous sacrifices to stop this move.

The fraudulent excuse for a Con-Con is a balanced budget amendment. The last Con-Con was in 1787. We the People have passed the amendments to our Constitution for 206 years without a Constitutional Convention. Why, all of a sudden, do we need to convene one to pass a new amendment? We do not! Look out America -- the New World Order godfathers are going to destroy the United States Constitution and replace it with the already completed New States Constitution, courtesy of David Rockefeller -- godfather of the NWO.

Dr. Kurk E. Koch is a professor and lecturer at 100 universities in 65 countries on five continents, whose subject of expertise is the New World Order, occultism, and extreme movements. His assessment of the NWO is:
"The New World Order under the United Nations is that it will reduce everything to one common denominator: The system will be made up of a single currency, single centrally financed government, single tax system, single language, single political system, single world court of justice, single state religion... Each person will have a registered number, without which he will not be allowed to buy or sell; and there will be one universal world church. Anyone who refuses to take part in this universal system will have no right to exist."

Walt Rostow, CFR member and United Nations spokesman stated:
"It is in the American interest to put an end to Nationhood. That is the goal in global government. America must get out of the United Nations or our sovereign Republic will not survive."

The Council on Foreign Relations

The next entity which represents a clear threat and danger to our freedom is the Council on Foreign Relations. We commented on this earlier in this booklet. The CFR has almost total control over the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Banking System.

Barry Goldwater states in his book, "With No Apologies", on page 231:
"Does it not seem strange to you that these men just happened to be CFR and just happened to be on the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve, that absolutely controls the money and interest rates of this great country without benefit of Congress? A privately owned organization, the Federal Reserve which has absolutely nothing to do with the United States of America!"

Most Americans have no real understanding of the operation of the international moneylenders. The bankers want it that way. We recognize in a hazy sort of way that the Rothschilds and the Warburgs of Europe and the House of J.P. Morgan, Kuhn, Loeb and Company, Schiff, Lehman, and Rockefeller possess and control vast wealth. How they acquired their vast financial power and employ it is a mystery to most of us. International bankers make money by extending credit to governments. The greater the debt of the political state, the larger the interest returned to the lenders. The national banks of Europe are actually owned and controlled by these private interests.

The CFR is one of the stepping stones to global government. This organization is the American branch of a society which originated in England and believes national boundaries should be obliterated and one-rule established.

Rear Admiral Chester Ward, a former member of the CFR for 16 years warned the American people of the organization's intentions:
"The most powerful clique in these elitist groups have one objective in common -- they want to bring about the surrender of the sovereignty of the national independence of the United States. A second clique of international members in the CFR comprises the Wall Street international bankers and their key agents. Primarily, they want the world banking monopoly from whatever power ends up in the control of global government."

Dan Smoot, a former member of the FBI Headquarters staff in Washington, D.C., summarized the organization's purpose as follows:
"The ultimate aim of the CFR (Council on Foreign Relations) is to create a one-world socialist system and make the U.S. an official part of it."

Congressman John R. Rarick warns:
"The CFR, dedicated to one-world government, financed by a number of the largest tax-exempt foundations, and wielding such power and influence over our lives in the areas of finance, business, labor, military, education and mass communication-media, should be familiar to every American concerned with good government and with preserving and defending the U.S. Constitution and our free-enterprise system. Yet, the nation's right-to-know machinery, the news media, usually so aggressive in exposures to inform our people, remain conspicuously silent when it comes to the CFR, its members and their activities. The CFR is the establishment. Not only does it have influence and power in key decision-making positions at the highest levels of government to apply pressure from above, but it also finances and uses individuals and groups to bring pressure from below, to justify the high level decisions for converting the US from a sovereign Constitutional Republic into a servile member of a one-world dictatorship."

Due to printing costs, we cannot detail the activities of the Council on Foreign Relations to the depth we would like. However, many books, booklets, and publications are available that factually and accurately give the history, operations, and undisputable connection between the CFR, past and current presidents, Congress, and the establishment media in our country.

The Trilateral Angle

The twin monster to the Council on Foreign Relations is the Trilateral Commission. The Trilateral Commission's roots stem from the book Between Two Ages, written by Zbigniew Brzezinski in 1970. The following quotations from that book show how closely Brzezinski's thinking parallels that of CFR founder, Edward Mandell House.

On page 72, Brzezinski writes: "Marxism is simultaneously a victory of the external, active man over the inner, passive man and a victory of reason over belief." On page 83, he states: "Marxism, disseminated on the popular level in the form of Communism, represented a major advance in man's ability to conceptualize his relationship to his world." On page 123, we find: "Marxism supplied the best available insight into contemporary reality."

Nowhere does Mr. Brzezinski tell his readers that Marxism "in the form of Communism," which he praises, has been responsible for the murder of approximately 125 million human beings in the twentieth century, has brought about the enslavement of over a billion more, and has caused want, deprivation and despair for all but the few criminals who run the communist-dominated nations.

On page 198, after discussing America's shortcomings, Brzezinski writes: "America is undergoing a new revolution which unmasks its obsolescence." We disagree; America is not obsolete. On page 260, he proposes "deliberate management of the American future," with the "planner as the key social legislator and manipulator." The central planning that he wants for our country is a cardinal underpinning of communism and the very opposite of the way things are done in a free country.

On page 296, Brzezinski suggests piecemeal movement toward a "community of nations... through a variety of indirect ties and already developing limitations on national sovereignty." Here, we have the same proposal that has been offered by Richard Gardner in the CFR publication Foreign Affairs.

Brzezinski then calls for the forging of community links among the United States, Western Europe, and Japan; and the extension of these links to more advanced communist countries. Finally, on page 308 of his 309 page book, he lets us know that what he really wants is "the goal of world government."

The Trilateral Commission is, again, well-documented for those who wish to further investigate.

Who are these people trying to promote world government by encouraging economic interdependence among the superpowers? The following represents just a fraction of the list but it should help to bring the truth out before it is too late. (CFR = Council on Foreign Relations, TRI = the Trilateral Commission)

Elected and appointed officials: George Bush -- former member of CFR, TRI; Bill Clinton -- CFR and TRI; Sandra Day O'Connor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, U.S. Supreme Court Justices and at least two other federal judges --CFR; Dick Cheney, former Secretary of Defense -- CFR; Les Aspin, former Secretary of Defense under Clinton -- CFR; Colin Powell, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff -- CFR; Robert Gates --CFR; Brent Scowcroft -- CFR and TRI; Jessie Jackson -- CFR and TRI, Nicholas Brady -- CFR; Mario Cuomo, Governor of the State of New York -- CFR.

The lie is so big, it is difficult to believe that these are the plans that have been laid for us Americans. It must be a lie, right? Wrong. Here is why you may not have heard this information before.

The media: Why is there no coverage in the establishment media?  Look at the CFR influence: CBS has Laurence A. Tisch (their CEO),  Dan Rather, and five others -- CFR. NBC, their CEO, Tom Brokaw, David Brinkley, John Chancellor, Marvin Kalb, Irving R. Levin and others -- all CFR. ABC, their CEO, Diane Sawyer and most recently, Barbara Walters -- all CFR.

Alternate sources for news: PBS, Cable News Network, Associated Press, Reuters, Baltimore Sun, Washington Times, Children's TV Workshop (Sesame Street), New York Times, War, Inc., Newsweek, Washington Post, The Denver Post, Dow Jones, National Review with William. F. Buckley, Jr., and Reader's Digest; dozens of Senators and House members, dozens of college and university presidents, more than a dozen members of the State Department, cabinet members, the White House staff and every major bank in this country -- all have connections to CFR and/or TRI.

Past shapers of our nation: Adlai Stevenson (CFR), Cyrus Vance (CFR), Zbigniew Brzezinski (CFR), Paul Volker (CFR), Henry Kissinger (CFR), George Schultz (CFR), Alan Greenspan (CFR), Jeanne J. Kirkpatrick (CFR).

The military: Our national defense has been dominated by these insiders as well. Every U.S. defense secretary of the past 35 years, with the exception of Clark Clifford, has belonged either to the CFR or the Trilateral Commission. The same groups have supplemented their efforts in the Defense Department with the control of other strategic military posts. For example, every Supreme Allied Commander in Europe (except Norman Schwarzkopf) has been a member of the CFR or the Trilateral Commission. The CIA, which is so critical to our national defense, has also been dominated by establishment insiders, with nine of its thirteen directors having been CFR members.

The four executive positions that have most frequently been filled by CFR/TRI members are probably the most influential positions in the U.S. government, apart from the presidency itself: Secretaries of Treasury, State and Defense, and the National Security Advisor.

Barry Goldwater said: 
"The Trilateral Commission is international and is intended to be the vehicle for multinational consolidation of the commercial and banking interests by seizing control of the political government of the United States. The Trilateral Commission represents a skillful, coordinated effort to seize control and consolidate the four centers of power -- political, monetary, intellectual and ecclesiastical."

Adam Weishaupt, founder of the Order of Illuminati (the beginning of the quest for world control and fostered down through the centuries by organizations previously listed and including The Cobden Club, the Club of Rome, the Bilderbergers) said on May 1, 1776:
"Oh mortal man, is there anything you cannot be made to believe?"

David Rockefeller, internationalist billionaire, CFR kingpin, founder of the Trilateral Commission, and World Order Godfather, voiced his praise of the controlled U.S. media for keeping their oath not to divulge the globalist plans to the public. Speaking to his fellow conspirators at a meeting, June 1991 in Baden Baden, Germany, of yet another infamous World Order group, the Bilderbergers, Mr. Rockefeller said:
"We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promise of discretion for almost forty years.... It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supernational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries."

John Swinton, the former Chief of Staff of the New York Times, called by his peers, "The Dean of his profession", was asked in 1953 to give a toast before the New York Press Club. He responded with the following statement:

"There is no such thing, at this date, of the world's history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone. The business of the journalist is to destroy truth; to lie outright; to pervert; to vilify; to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it and what folly is this toasting an independent press?  We are the tools and vassals for rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."

Nothing has changed.

The Bilderbergers

What is a "Bilderberger?" Individuals. They are some of the wealthiest and most power hungry individuals from around the globe who lust for power by creating a New World Order for the rest of us.

In 1991, some of the Biderberger participants from the United States were: Paul Allaire, Chairman of Xerox Corporation, Dwayne Andreas, Chairman of Archer, Daniels & Midland Corporation, John Chafee, U.S. Senator from Rhode Island, Richard Furland, Director of Bristol Meyers-Squibb, Karen Elliot House, International Vice President of Dow-Jones, Inc., Henry Kissinger, Former Secretary of State under Richard Nixon, David Rockefeller, Jack Sheinkman, President of the AFL-CIO, and Lynn Williams, President of the United Steelworkers of America.

If these individuals represent you in any organization, it is strongly urged that you find out the truth about their Bilderberger meetings. The meetings are held in iron-fisted secrecy, with armed guards carrying sophisticated assault weapons. No one conducting honest and forthright business should need the aforementioned scenario to keep the world out.

What It All Means

Let us summarize the situation we have been describing:

Starting with Jimmy Carter, all past presidents including President Clinton, have promptly filled their administrations with members of the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission.

The Council on Foreign Relations was conceived by a Marxist, Edward Mandell House, for the purpose of creating a one-world government by destroying the freedom and independence of all nations, especially including our own. Its Chairman of the Board is David Rockefeller, and its members have immense control over our government and much of American life;

The Trilateral Commission was conceived by Zbigniew Brzezinski, who praises Marxism, who thinks the United States is obsolete, and who also wants to create a one-world government. Its founder and driving force is also David Rockefeller. And it, too, exercises extraordinary control over the government of the United States.

The effect of the CFR and the Trilateral Commission on the affairs of our nation is easy to see. Our own government no longer acts in its own interest, but is the best money can buy. We constantly tie ourselves to international agreement, pacts and conventions. These two organizations are designed to bring an end to our free republic. Our leaders have developed blatant preferences for communist Russia (aka the Soviet Union, aka the Commonwealth) and communist China, while they continue to work for world government, which has always been the goal of communism.

In order to fund these grandiose global plans, the personal federal income tax, collected by the IRS was created in conjunction with the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 to provide the architects of the NWO with billions and billions of dollars earned with the sweat of Americans.

Did you know that in 1972, President Richard Nixon executed Executive Order # 11647 that redivided the 50 states into 10 new regions, with appointments instead of elected officials over each region?

Did you know that the ratification of a new United Nations World Constitution by Reagan and the Senate in 1980 (UNIDO Treaty #9719) makes our original United States Constitution subservient to the new United Nations document? This is treason!

Under the New World Order, private ownership of farms and guns are forbidden. Public Law 87-297 and State Department Paper No. 7277 must be repealed. If this is not done, we will surely be part of our military service personnel dying in vain. Call your Senators to obtain copies of this treason.

When you hear the insiders say, "We did this to ourselves, now we have to make all these sacrifices to correct it..." you know this statement is a lie. We the People did not do this to ourselves. We were never told the truth about the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, how it came into being, and that the 16th Amendment was never legally ratified. We did not do this to ourselves but We the People have the power to stop it.

The domestic policies of administrations over the past fifty years could hardly be worse. But the domestic policies of our government also fit into the scheme to weaken the United States and destroy the freedom of our people. Government caused inflation continues to weaken our currency and destroy the economy of our nation. Federal controls continue to hamstring America's productive might.

The real goal of our own government's leaders is to make the United States into a carbon copy of a communist state, and then to merge all nations into a one-world system run by a powerful few -- funded by the privately owned Federal Reserve Banks. When We the People are informed of the reasons for this global government, the pieces fall together and things begin to make sense.

How would a one-world global government affect you as an individual in this country? Do you think that such a development will be beneficial to the world or agreeable to yourself?  Let us list four certain consequences of world government:

One: Rather than improve the standard of living for other nations, world government will mean a forced redistribution of all wealth and a sharp reduction in the standard of living for Americans. Henry Kissinger stated recently that NAFTA was the "most creative step towards the New World Order."

Two: Strict regimentation will become commonplace. There will no longer be any freedom of movement, freedom of worship, private property rights, free speech, or the right to publish.

Three: World government will mean that this once glorious land of opportunity will become another socialistic nightmare where no amount of effort will produce just reward.

Four: World order will be enforced by agents of the world government in the same way that agents of the Kremlin used to enforce their rule throughout the former Soviet Union.

That is not the kind of a world that anyone should have to tolerate. And it is surely not the kind of an existence that a parent should leave for a child. Yet, that is what is on our near horizon right now, unless enough Americans decide to stop it.

It is expected that the information you have read in this booklet will be very disturbing -- some of you will refuse to believe it. We would like to offer up some words from Mr. Al St. Clair, President of Informed Consent:
"How is it then, that most of us are seeing this shocking truth for the first time in 1992? The truth is that those we trusted with positions of leadership, both state and federal, have betrayed our trust. Blinded by ambition and the fear of loss, they have denied the real consequences of their actions even to themselves and at the expense of their own families. It is difficult to acknowledge that all these men and women could individually and collectively be guilty of treason against the Constitution and the people they claim to represent. But the facts tell an irrefutable story. Now, We the American people, must face and deal with this problem before we become Feudal Slaves in their newly constructed New World Order."

Old Fashioned Patriotism - AMERICA FIRST!

What is this movement referred to as "The Patriot (Constitutionalist) Movement?" We patriots love God, our country, our Constitution, and our flag. Our allegiance is to our country -- not a political party. We come from all walks of life, religions, races, and organizations. Our goal is one: To rout out the bankers stripping America blind, to abolish the IRS and lawfully and peacefully force the United States Congress, our elected public servants, to return to our Constitution. This nationwide effort by American Patriots can bring about the cure and kill the cancer of our economic woes: The Fed and the personal income tax. But only by an overwhelming voice of We the People can we force the U.S. Congress to return to Constitutional government and currency. Those of us involved in this national effort do not work for money, but we desperately need any donations you can comfortably make to pay for printing and postage costs.

If you love this country and want to eliminate the cancer of our economic woes, join in this nationwide effort to inundate Congress with petitions until our demands are met. These booklets are available at cost plus shipping to anyone who wants them. Every American who wants to help to save our Republic can distribute them to groups, clubs, organizations or in their neighborhoods. Help us get the truth to all Americans.

We must put a stop to the Fed and the IRS. We cannot survive as a sovereign, free Republic with the types of forces at work behind the scenes everyday all around us. America is not a democracy. Fellow Americans, you must find out the truth with regard to your Constitutional rights about the Internal Revenue Service and your lawful status under the Internal Revenue Code.

Project Liberty, a logical First Amendment educational extension of POWER, is publishing manuals that will help millions of Americans learn the truth about their Constitutional rights regarding their state income tax, social security, and the lawful applications of internal taxation with respect to the IRS. Currently, Project Liberty has utilized state-of-the-art information regarding these subjects from the Internal Revenue Code, The Code of Federal Regulations, current case law, and citings from several Internal Revenue Manuals, heretofore only available to government agents. Learn your proper lawful status pursuant the codes. Learn what the courts have said with regard to income tax. For information that could save you and your family tremendous expense, please send a legal-sized self-addressed stamped envelope to: Project Liberty, P.O. Box 741075, Arvada, Colorado 80006-9075.

"The income tax is unconstitutional and was not part of the original intent of those who drafted our Constitution or government. I am supporting a resolution to repeal the 16th Amendment." --Steve Symms, former member of the U.S. Congress.

"Strictly speaking, it probably is not necessary for the federal government to tax anyone directly; it could simply print the money it needs. However, that would be too bold a stroke, for it would then be obvious to all what kind of counterfeiting operation the government is running. The present system combining taxation and inflation is akin to watering the milk: too much water and the people catch on." -- Ron Paul, former member of the U.S. Congress.

A U.S. Court of Appeals observed in U.S. vs. Dickerson, 413 F. 2d., 1111:
"Only the rare taxpayer would be likely to know that he could refuse to produce his records to IRS agents. Who would believe the ironic truth that the cooperative taxpayer fares much worse than the individual who relies upon his Constitutional rights."

The Fed was designed to encroach on our real wealth by the economically-pressured repetition of the lending and interest collecting cycles (compounding debt and fueling inflation) until the public, the Government and the nation's economy is totally bankrupt. By calculated debt and inflation, the bankers and financiers have become the owners of the nation's property, businesses, industries and resources, and the prophetic quote attributed to Thomas Jefferson has been fulfilled:
"If the American people allow private banks to control the issuance of their currency, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."

Since 1992, we have heard the cry "Take Back America." This can only be accomplished by (1) identifying the root cause of a problem, and (2) having a comprehensive, logical solution and a plan to implement it. POWER is meant to bring common cause action to a problem that affects every man, woman and child in America.

What Can You Do to Take Back America?

POWER presented more than 1.7 million petitions to the House of Representatives on September 29, 1993 in the nation's capital. Until legislation is passed, continue to send the signed petitions to the Senators and Representatives from your state.

All members of Congress were hand delivered copies of the Monetary Reform Bill. (1) Approximately 75% of all members of Congress have never read the Federal Reserve Act of 1913; (2) 75% of the current members do not understand the flawed fractional banking system. In fact, most flatly refuse to even address the problem; and (3) constituent representatives responding to inquiries are answered by staff who have been taught the myth and lie in college and continue to perpetuate these myths and lies about the fraud call the Fed.The same situations exist with organizations like AARP, who fully endorse the Fed and oppose any measures to abolish it. How can AARP endorse the fleecing of America by a handful of private bankers fraudulently passing themselves off as federal anything? They do!

During this election year, attend town hall meetings which are convened by your elected representatives. Make the issues outlined here the campaign issue! Call your Representatives and Senators and continue to demand that they act on this legislation. Make appointments to meet with these individuals to discuss our nation's economic problems. Do the same with candidates who are running for office. We must accomplish these goals if our economy is to survive.

The media is the second biggest problem in this country. They are controlled by the CFR and the Fed and they have betrayed the trust of the American people. Write to the editors and demand that they quit hiding the truth. If they don't and won't expose the truth, cancel your subscriptions and boycott their advertisers.

We have little time before the entire system collapses. Either We the People want to eradicate the core cancer of our economic problems, or continue to treat the symptoms which will cure absolutely nothing. Get out of the red -- abolish the Fed. Along with it goes the IRS. It won't happen overnight, but we must get the legislation introduced and passed. Otherwise America will become another wasteland of socialism.

Redding, California 96049-2200

This booklet is available in bulk for $30.00 per hundred. POWER has never received any PAC money, nor any funds from any other special interest groups. We have made it since January of 1993 only on personal donations. We encourage everyone to order the $10.00 start-up packet. The packet includes a complete explanation of POWER, this booklet, the six page monetary reform explanation, congressional testimony, newsletter, and other substantiating documentation. Over 32 documents plus three copies of this booklet are included.

We the People should be shouting this truth from the rooftops. We know the problem. Congress has the solution, and it is up to We the People to pressure the Congress to do what is Constitutionally lawful and fiscally sound for America. Let's take back our country!

In November of 1994, elect individuals who openly support the United States Constitution and openly condemn the socialistic New World Order agenda. Refuse to support the party line if the party is only willing to go along to get along. Help to stop a coming fascist state (health care reform currently under consideration is a classic textbook example) of scare tactics. We the People... Remember the sacrifices of the past which gave us our freedoms of today.

Please give this effort your full support before we lose everything. Become a patriot for the love of America! Let us remember words of wisdom from individuals who have shaped our past:

Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence, the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake; since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful woes of Republican government.

 George Washington.

I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations..

James Madison.

Among us today is a concentration of private power without equal in history and is growing. This concentration is seriously impairing the economic effectiveness of private enterprise as a way of providing employment for labor and capital as a way of assuring a more equitable distribution of income and earnings among the people of the nation as a whole. Private enterprise is ceasing to be free enterprise.

 Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

Believe These Words!

Petition for Redress of Grievances

The petition on the following page is the tool that we Americans should use to present our demands to Congress, our servants. We ask that each petition that you are able to collect signatures upon be sent directly to your Representative and Senators. If you are able to afford postage costs, send a photocopy of each signed petition to your entire delegation of Representatives.

    Representative's Name

    U.S. House of Representatives

    Washington, D.C.  20515

    Senator's Name

    United States Senate

    Washington, D.C.  20510

Please follow-up the petition with letters, telephone calls, faxes, and visits if possible. Let these people know that We the People will not tolerate inaction and that we won't go away.

No current member of the United States House of Representatives is willing to introduce the legislation necessary to do what is constitutionally lawful and fiscally sound to return America to economic prosperity.

In addition to being the founder and director of POWER, I am now a candidate for the Second Congressional District of Northern California for the House of Representatives. If elected, upon affirmation of my oath of office, I will introduce a Monetary Reform Act and move heaven and earth to have it passed into law.

The Petition for Redress of Grievances

We the People hereby declare that all beings are created equal, that We the People are protected by our rights under the Supreme Law of the Land, the U.S. Constitution, do hereby exercise our Ninth Amendment Rights; and

We, the People of the States united, hereby petition U.S. Congress assembled, pursuant to the First Amendment of the Constitution for the United States, for redress of the following grievances:

WHEREAS the United States of America is currently suffering the evil effects of a fraudulently imposed, heavy and progressive federal income tax, and an irredeemable fiat money unlawfully issued by an unconstitutional central bank; and,

WHEREAS the Congress of the United States and the legislatures of the several States are either unable or unwilling to forthrightly address these concerns within the limits of the United States Constitution and the Constitutions of the several States; and

WHEREAS We the People of the United States have the duty to our Creator to reform, change or resist the acts of our government when it becomes destructive of the ends for which it was organized; and

WHEREAS We the People require the knowledge needed to effectively deal with the problems at hand and to change or reform our government accordingly, in order to avoid chaos and anarchy; and

NOW THEREFORE:

Be it resolved that the demands of We the People are as follows:

1. The repeal of the income tax in its entirety; The abolition of the agency known as the Internal Revenue Service. The IRS forces Americans to surrender their Fifth Amendment rights and is therefore unconstitutional;

2. The replacement of the federal income tax with a system of taxation within the classes of imposts, excises and duties, while promoting the restoration of State sovereignty;

3. The repeal of the Federal Reserve Act and all subsequent legislation authorizing or empowering a central bank. We the People want the Federal Reserve Bank audited. Since they conducted theft by operating an entity that is illegal under the U.S. Constitution, we need an accurate accounting of their assets. We the People have a legal claim against the assets of the Federal Reserve and all it's branch operations. We want the stockholders, the Board of Governors and Alan Greenspan, of this illegal entity prosecuted.

We the People demand that House legislation be introduced and passed, then continued over to the Senate for confirmation and eventual approval by the sitting President of the United States:

TO ABOLISH the Federal Reserve Act in order to secure for the American people their right to Life, Liberty and Property, and to provide for them a Constitutionally accurate, sound, safe and honest medium of exchange, that their endeavors in agriculture, industry and commerce may prosper.

SUPPORTING STATEMENT & REMEDY

Under the present monetary system, our medium of exchange (Federal Reserve Note "Dollars") is created and loaned into circulation in exchange for a claim on real wealth. These loans require repayment of the face value [principle] plus interest. However, the Federal Reserve Note "Dollars" needed to pay the interest are never created. This means that it is mathematically impossible to repay the total indebtedness, resulting in foreclosure on personal property, violating the 13th Amendment rights of all Americans. This is the direct cause of the above listed grievances.

WHEREFORE, we the undersigned who are We the People of America, demand for relief, that you, the Congress assembled, restructure the National monetary system or concepts thereof, as proposed by The Tax & Money Reform Committee and the Coalition for Tax and Money Reform, Monetary Reform Committee; said bill having already been hand delivered to the desk of each Congressman and Senator and abolishing the IRS and eliminating the personal federal income tax and return to generating Constitutional revenue.

WE THE PEOPLE DO NOT consider these petitions a request, but indeed, a demand from We the People to your OUR SERVANTS, sworn to uphold the Constitution of the United States. The Fed and the personal income tax are in direct violation of the U.S. Constitution and We the People will no longer tolerate this violation of our rights.

If the House of Representatives does not, within 30 days after Redress of Congress and presentation of these petitions, announce these demands will be implemented, we will be forced to resort to any and all the resources open to us starting with filing a Complaint in Federal Court against the U.S. Congress, stockholders and Board of Governors of the Fed under the rights retained To the People by the 1st, 5th, 10th and 13th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution and 42 USC 1792, 1983, 1985, and 1986. Every effort will be made to recall members of the House of Representatives who refuse to correct the problems as defined in this petition.

We the People expect this conversion process of the monetary system to begin within the earliest possible time frame. The same shall occur regarding announcement that the IRS shall cease to exist and the personal income tax will stop. Audit of the Fed and legal action against the Board of Governors and Alan Greenspan shall begin as soon as the Attorney General of the United States can prepare the paperwork. No gridlock will be acceptable.
