Phil,

I've not yet read "Secrets of the Federal Reserve", since most banking "secrets" are available at your local Federal Reserve Bank and online, as well as through groups such as  http://www.ny.frb.org/pihome/orgchart/board ,  http://cfr.org ,  http://www.bis.org and  http://www.rothschild.com .

But I think it would be excellent if you would daily post small sections of the original book at  http://egroups.com/group/jpchance ,  http://egroups.com/group/Time-Energy-Accounting ,  http://www.indymedia.org , local IMC sites and elsewhere.

Then folks can read the book in sections, as I'm doing with Buckminster Fuller's  http://bfi.org/grunch_of_giants.htm , and see through the fog of lies claiming that Americans are responsible for global war and terrorism.

If we are responsible, it's only because we've been disinformed by the media-money monopoly that we don't control.

Although I don't agree that precious metals such as gold must or should be required as backing for a reasonable currency, and that human lifetime and renewable energy are both more valuable and impossible to monopolize, everyone should understand that fractional-reserve banking and usury (charging interest on non-renewable commodities, including hypothetical "debt") is nothing more than a massive fraud backed by the terrorism of transnational corporations that manipulate "our" governments via the CIA-Mossad-MI6 and the entire military-industrial complex.

Best Regards,

Jon

> Last year alone, the American people paid $360 billion in
