What does the word 'monetize' mean? It means;
(1) To coin
into money.
(2) To legalize as money.
(3) To give the nature of money to.
When a government needs a public work such as a bridge it must be paid for out of
taxes or financed by a bond issue. If a bond issue is used the bonds plus
interest must eventually be paid by the taxpayer.
This article is about how to build a bridge, without a bond
issue, without borrowing 'money' from the bankers, by turning the bridge into money. The method explained in this article
can be used to build most anything needed by a government, (federal, state
or local) whether it be a bridge or a f-15 fighter aircraft.
To understand how to monetize a bridge we must first
understand how silver and gold are monetized. That is, how are silver and
gold metal turned into money.
Silver: People use their labor to find silver bearing ore in the
soil. That ore is mined, taken to a smelter to be purified, then taken to a
mint. The mint coins the silver metal into standard sized coins. The coin is
usually measured in ounces or dollars. A dollar measure is a certain weight
of silver.
Gold: Gold metal is obtained by mining or otherwise and likewise
taken to a mint. The mint coins the gold into standard sized coins. Each
gold coin is valued in silver. The dollar of silver being the standard of
weight and measure of value. Therefore a $25.00 gold coin has the same value
as $25.00 in silver metal. And likewise a one dollar silver coin contains a
dollars worth of silver metal.
Coins of silver and gold are small and easy to carry from place to
place. They work nicely as money because they have a known standard value
and easily passed hand to hand. A bridge has value but is very large and can
not be moved.
But, both the coins and the bridge have these three things in
common.
(1) Labor.
(2) Soil .
(3) Value measurable in dollars.
Man's
labor was used to mine or grow products from the soil and turned
into a product of value.
Both the coin and the bridge came from the ground via labor. The
coin by minting as explained above. The bridge by the labor of the people
who went to a mine to dig iron ore. Other people smelted that ore and
purified into iron and steel. Still other labors used the steel in the
bridge's construction. Cement was mined as stone and processed into cement.
Every part of the bridge originated in the soil and was acted upon by
man's labor and valued in dollars.
Both the coin and the bridge are property and have value. Both the
coin and the bridge are processed soil plus labor valued in dollars.
Everything we have can be reduced to two items (1) labor and (2)
natural resources. Most everything is valued in dollars. Even man was formed
of the dust of the ground by the labor of God. A man's worth is often valued
in dollars per hour.
A future coin or a future bridge will remain dirt of little
value until the dirt is acted upon by man's labor. The labor generates the
value.
What does a society do if it has an abundance of coin and has need of a
bridge? Well it could simply use coins to pay for labor and material. In
this case society has traded the coins for the bridge.
The Spanish came to the America's and took gold from the people who
lived in the area now called Mexico. The Spanish were prosperous until the
plundered gold was spent.
What is a society to do if they do not care to steal some
one else's silver and gold, or for whatever reason silver and gold is not
available, or their soil does not contain silver or gold that can be mined
and coined into money? Are they in permanent poverty having no money?
What is a society to do if it needs a bridge (or whatever) but has
no money, or not enough money, to pay for it? Run to the banker and borrow
credit? But God's law say's interest on money is sin. Is there another way
to finance construction? And is the other way a better way than submitting to banker
plunder?
If the society has the raw materials in the ground under its
feet, and if they have the man power to labor at construction, could they
build a bridge without gold or silver coin to pay for it? The Great
Depression is proof that it can be done.
In the Great Depression we had an abundance of people ready
and willing to labor. We had an abundance of raw material to build anything
we wished. The problem was 'no money'. While we had paper, we did not even have paper money!
Why did we have no money? Prior to the depression we did have
money. And prosperity. We had lots of money. Where did the money go? The answer is, the
bankers were busy plundering the people. The Bankers could do this because;
(1) They had exclusive control of the nation's money supply. (As today.)
(2) The vast majority of people have no understanding of how the Banker's
money system scam works. (As today.)
(3) Those who do have some information usually have misinformation. (As
today.) Here
are a few examples of current misinformation.
(A) Inflation is caused by too much money chasing too few goods.
(B) Inflation is caused by government spending too much money.
(C) Inflation is caused by greedy business and unions pushing up prices.
You will never hear, "inflation is caused by the nature of
the interest bearing fractional reserve money system".
Where did the general public get their false understanding of the
money system? The public is educated by the Banker controlled newspapers,
the Banker funded colleges, etc..
In the Great Depression, to plunder the nation the Bankers simply withdrew their
loaned credit money from circulation. To withdraw money they simply stopped
making new loans. As a result of the lack of new money and continued
payments on old loans, the money supply shrank.
Soon money is not available
for loan payments. Foreclosure follows. Through foreclosure Bankers take
ownership of the people's mortgaged property. Then they restore prosperity
so we can buy it back from them.
Right after the Depression something happened in Europe. Hitler
discovered that he did not need Banker created paper money. Germany returned
to prosperity without the Banker's paper. The Banker, like a Chicago
gangster, was furious at someone cutting into his territory. The Bankers
took action. They stirred up a world war to destroy those nations that did
not welcome the international banker's plunder.
The United States was in the great depression. To make it possible for The United States to fight World War II the Bankers caused a sudden abundance of money to
flow here in America. They simply loaned credit into circulation. They had
their newspapers fan the flames of war. They cranked up their Hollywood
propaganda mills and churned out Nazi movie upon Nazi movie. Off we went to
fight a 'righteous' war against 'evil'.
Everyone went to work producing war materials and prosperity
returned. The Bankers fooled us, used us as cannon fodder and sent one Christian Nation off to destroy
another Christian Nation. And guess who made the war profits?
Not the soldier spilling his blood. Not the soldier's
parents and relatives as they labored in the munitions factories.
And who took ownership of the business and industry in the
conquered lands? May I suggest that we can not keep Japanese cars out of the
American market because these companies are secretly owned by the conquering
banks.
Could SONY be an acronym for Standard Of
New York? How about J.V.C., the Japanese Victor Company. (Part of the American R.C.A. Victor
Company?)
How about the 'Japanese' company that bought Rockefeller
Plaza. Some Newspapers reported that the 'Japanese' company was owned by
Rockefeller! What a scam! The Bankers financed the war and took ownership of
German and Japanese business and industry upon the successful completion of
the war. Anyway, prosperity, even war, requires three things, (1) raw
material, (2) labor and (3) 'money'.
President James A. Garfield summarized the situation.
"Whoever
controls the volume of money in any country is absolute master of all
industry and commerce."
Rulership and control of a modern nation depends
upon who controls the nation's money supply. The money supply can be controlled by
one of these three groups, The People, The Bankers, The Politicians.
The Bankers. The Bankers issue paper money at no cost to themselves
and loan it into circulation at interest. (Federal Reserve Notes. Silver
Certificates.)
The Politicians issue paper money at no cost to themselves and spend
it into circulation. (Silver Certificates. U.S. Notes and Tallies.)
'We The People'. The people can have their silver and gold coined
into money.
Question: How can Silver Certificates be issued at no cost? Answer.
Banks and Governments soon realize that more certificates can be issued than
the value of the silver on hand to back them. They find that it is very easy
to issue 3,000 dollars in certificates for 1,000 dollars worth of silver.
(This is an ancient scam discovered by the goldsmiths of old.) Therefore,
2,000 of the certificates were at no cost to the issuer. It is something for
nothing for the issuer. It is eventually nothing for something to the last
holder.
The present situation in America is a hybrid of (1) and (2). Banker
controlled Congress established The Federal Reserve System which places
control of the money in the hands of the Bankers. This is why people believe
that the Federal Reserve Banks are 'Federal' rather that private businesses.
What Are We To Do?
Many people see the evil of the present system.
Various solutions are offered. Some of these solutions are;
(1) Nationalizing the Fed.
(2) U.S. Notes, and 'tallies'.
(3) Gold and Silver Coin only. No paper money at all.
Nationalizing the Fed: As President James A. Garfield said, "Whoever
controls the volume of money in any country is absolute master of all
industry and commerce."
| The rich rules over the poor and the
borrower is servant to the lender. Proverbs. 22:7 |
The present Federal Reserve System makes the Banker the controller
of the nations money, therefore, "absolute master of all industry and
commerce." The present Federal Reserve System also makes Congress servant
because our 'national debt' is borrowed from the Banker. "And the borrower
is servant to the lender."
Right now, the International Bankers are the masters. Nationalizing
the Fed makes Congress, not the people, absolute master. A nationalized
Federal Reserve System is not the solution because nationalization would
make the central government (not the people) "absolute master of all
industry and commerce."
| Congressman Louis T. McFadden said, "The Federal
Reserve (Banks) are one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever
seen. There is not a man within the sound of my voice who does not know that
this Nation is run by the International Bankers." |
The catch 22, nationalizing the Fed places control of the money
system in the hands of the Federal Government (Congress). But Congress
already has control as they can alter or abolish the Fed any time they wish.
It is just a shell game. These two are in bed with each other. They are in
love with each other. They both benefit at the public expense.
Some offer U.S. Notes as a
solution. It is a better system than the present Federal Reserve Notes. But
who determines the amount of notes to be issued? And who gets something for nothing? The Government of course. To
repeat President Garfield words. "Whoever controls the volume of money in
any country is absolute master of all industry and commerce."
Are the
elected politicians to be master or are the electing people to be master?
Are we going to elect our rulers or elect our representatives. (Does the
hireling tell the boss what to do?) Like nationalizing the Fed, Notes make Congress master, not the people. If either the Banks or
Congress are master then the people are not master but servant. So, 'the
hireling now tells the boss what to do."
Silver and Gold Coin - Silver Certificates: Silver and gold coin are better
than U.S. Notes. Silver and gold coin could place control in the
hands of the people providing:
(1) Providing that the people have silver and
gold coin.
(2) Providing that the people could prevent the government from
stealing their coin via excess taxation.
(3) Providing that the people would
be wise enough not to let the Bankers exchange gold and silver coin for
paper money or borrowing credit at interest.
Concerning point (1) above "Providing that the people have silver and gold
coin." We The People do not have any significant amount of gold or silver
and there is no place to get much of it because the Bankers have almost all
of it locked away in their vaults.
The Bankers are not going to let you have much gold because political power
flows to the holder of the gold. It's the golden rule. He who has the gold
makes the rules.
As a policy, Bankers take gold out of circulation as much as possible. As a
result, there is not enough gold to satisfy the demands for money. They then
promote paper money as a solution to the nation's money problem (the problem they
caused). Their
solution places them position to regulate the value of their paper making
them 'master'.
Silver Certificates: If by chance the gold falls into the hands of
government it will be locked in Fort Knox because Politicians also know that
political power flows to the holder of the gold. "He who has the gold makes
the rules." And the Bureaucrat wants to make the rules.
With the gold safely locked away from the public in Fort Knox the government
would again issue silver and gold certificates.
They would have to issue paper certificates
simply because there is not, or will not be, enough silver and gold
available to meet the nation's money needs.
There is not much mischief
if one thousand dollars worth of silver 'backs' one thousand dollars in
silver certificates. But, they know a secret. A thousand dollars worth of
silver can 'back' several thousand dollars worth of silver certificates. It
is same principal as fractional reserve banking. A secret that Politicians
and Bankers have used for ages to plunder the people.
| "Government is not reason; it is not eloquence; it
is force! It is a dangerous servant and a fearful master." President
George Washington |
It is 'something for nothing' for the issuing government just like Federal
Reserve Notes are 'something for nothing' for the Banker. If you did the
same thing it would be a felony and you would quickly find yourself behind
bars.
The present money system puts control in the
hands of the Bankers. It allows the bankers to plunder the people. U.S.
Notes places this
power in the hands of a central government. Silver and gold coin could place
power in the hands of the people, but the people don't have enough gold and
there is no where to get enough of it. |
