12 <strong>En</strong> <strong>Route</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Occupation</strong> gaining acceptance rapidly because of their convenience. To make a purchase your card is passed through a scanning device. After making a po;itive identification your bank account is au<strong>to</strong>matically debited. The willingness of consumers <strong>to</strong> accept a single card for worldwide use is already being tested by the credit card and telecommunications industries-by now, most people have seen AT&Ts intriguing television commercial, "One World ... One Card." Once the debit card has become widely accepted, everything would be in place for the next and final step, which would be <strong>to</strong> force each individual <strong>to</strong> be tagged with a personal identification code without which he would be unable <strong>to</strong> buy or sell. The technology for such a worldwide electronic system is already in place, and experiments with such a mark have been conducted in several countries. Other developments are underway as well. In the not <strong>to</strong>o distant future, products on our grocery shelves may become labelled with an invisible bar code. The Universal Product Code (UPC), which many have complained is an eye sore on product packaging, will still be there. However, only the scanner will be able <strong>to</strong> read it Once this transition <strong>to</strong> an invisible code begins <strong>to</strong> take place, it will only be a matter of time before humans are tat<strong>to</strong>oed with a similar mark. It is not unrealistic <strong>to</strong> expect this process <strong>to</strong> come <strong>to</strong> fruition during the 1990s or the first part of the next century. If globalists have their way, such a system could be operational as soon as 1994. While looking in<strong>to</strong> these global financial developments, I discovered that our money was controlled by just a few people devoted <strong>to</strong> the cause of world government Recently passed interstate banking laws have made this centralization possible by allowing big banks <strong>to</strong> swallow up smaller banks at an alarming rate. Over a twelve state region stretching from New <strong>En</strong>gland <strong>to</strong> the Carolinas, for example, three New York super-banks now control over 85 percent of the banking assets. Small local banks were first bought out by larger in-state. Bigger regional banks then purchased these large state banks. Once this process had been completed, the regional banks were merged with the New York super-banks in unprecedented acquisitions until a few banks controlled nearly everything. This all happened during the late 1970s and early 80s. This same process is now being repeated throughout the rest of the country. Little did I know at this point that I was still only scratching the surface on these matters. I would soon discover that the same forces behind the big bank mergers already controlled the American banking industry indirectly via the Federal Reserve System. This has <strong>Global</strong> Economics 13 been the case ever since the Fed's establishment in 1913. Contrary <strong>to</strong> public belief, the Federal Reserve is not a government institution. It is a privately held corporation owned by s<strong>to</strong>ckholders. Until a few years ago, however, the names of those who owned the Federal Reserve was one of the best kept secrets of international finance due <strong>to</strong> a proviso on passage of the Federal Reserve Act agreeing that the identities of the Fed's Class A s<strong>to</strong>ckholders not be revealed. 1 Mr. RE. McMaster, the publisher of a financial newsletter called "The Reaper," was able <strong>to</strong> determine who the Fed's principal owners were through his Swiss and Saudi Arabian contacts. According <strong>to</strong> McMaster, the <strong>to</strong>p eight s<strong>to</strong>ckholders are Rothschild Banks of London and Berlin; Lazard Brothers Banks of Paris; Israel Moses Self Banks of Italy; Warburg Bank of Hamburg and Amsterdam; Lehman Brothers Bank of New York; Kuhn, Loeb Bank of New York; Chase Manhattan BankofNewYork; and Goldman, Sachs BankofNewYork. These interests own the Federal Reserve System through approximately three hundred s<strong>to</strong>ckholders, all of whom are known <strong>to</strong> each other and are sometimes related <strong>to</strong> one another. 2 A great deal of big bank maneuvering and deception surrounded the passage of the Federal Reserve Act The original proposal calling for a central bank operated by private interests was presented by Sena<strong>to</strong>r Nelson Aldrich (the maternal grandfather of <strong>to</strong>day's Rockefeller brothers) under the Aldrich Bill. Congress, however, seeing through the hidden motives of those sponsoring the bill and aware . of the unconstitutionality of such a system, voted the bill down with ::::-.. strong backing from the small bank lobby. • A short time later, however, the same bill with only a few minor modifications was reintrduced under a different name and passed as the Federal Reserve Act (officially, the Owen-Glass Act). Those who had led the congressional opposition <strong>to</strong> the Aldrich Bill felt that the battle had been won and were guilty of letting their guard down. Many of these individuals had already left for the Christmas holidays when the bill was reintroduced and rammed through Congress on 23 December 1913. Because of the way in which the Federal Reserve System was designed by its founders, whoever controls the Federal Reserve Bank of New York essentially controls the system. For all practical purposes the Federal Reserve Bank of New York "is" the Federal Reserve. Cur- • Article 1, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution prohibits private Interests from Issuing money or regulating the value thereof. This power belongs only <strong>to</strong> Congress. Thus, according <strong>to</strong> our Constitution, the Federal Reserve System Is an illegal enterprise.
