"An unlimited power to tax, involves, necessarily, a power to destroy; because there is a limit beyond which no institution and no property can bear taxation." — John Marshall

Nelson Aldrich, and the financial interests backing him, took control of America in 1913.

States would be controlled through contrived crises designed to manipulate the opinion of the populace.

People would be controlled through manipulative direct taxation designed to enslave them. Such was forbidden by the Constitution to prevent just such an outcome.

Economic control would be achieved through manipulating the currency, inflation and deflation, to steal the wealth of the nation. I would need $21.60 to purchase what $1 would in 1913.

Since the Fed prints all of our currency at interest, how will we ever have enough currency to pay the interest being charged on the currency? We can't! Perpetual debt has become the new motto of America under the Federal Reserve System.

How have they maintained this control?

The illusion of choice, allows us the opportunity to vote, even though our vote does nothing more than decide the path. The destination is predetermined!

Haven't you noticed that both major national parties favor a powerful central government? Neither party supports the truly constitutional concept of decentralized government. Don't you ever wonder why? Big financial interests provided approximately two-thirds of the campaign money for both major Presidential candidate in 2008.

So many of our past Presidents were under the sway of the money manipulators! Few, very few, have not been so inclined.

The Fed, the powers behind it, and those attached to it, have become more powerful than any politician or party in our nation. We have let them have this power by voting for candidates their money supported. I'm not surprised to see lost jobs and homes while banks are being bailed out. We didn't heed the warning of Thomas Jefferson:

"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them, will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."

We can choose to wake up and get active now, or we can choose to stay on the program and awaken one day in our homeland homeless and conquered.
