    'The Men Who Built America'

    http://www.history.com/shows/men-who-built-america

    So I caught an episode the other night and was intrigued to see how they portray JP Morgan, Rockefeller and the like.

    I came in where JP Morgan & Edison(DC) were competing against Westinghouse & Tesla(AC) for the Niagara Falls electricity contract.

    Dirty Morgan ends up buying & threatening Westinghouse & Tesla out of the project after he loses, and then he squeezes Edison out of his own company 'Edison General Electric' making it 'General Electric'.

    There's a reason the Monopoly Man favors JP Morgan.

    That was an interesting episode. I don't remember the JP Morgan part of the Edison history being taught in school.
    It's a good series and that one was the most interesting so far...I only hate how they keep repeting parts everytime there's a break.

    I'm sure you guys are aware that JP Morgan was but an agent of the House of Rothschild. After his death, it was discovered he owned a paltry 19% of his own company.

    I guess we should be thankful to them?

    had this book awhile ago
    a few insightful quotes showing their true nature



    http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...500_AA300_.jpg


    someone is trying to rewrite history

    " Greed ( at any cost ) is Good "
    WATER
    FOOD
    SHELTER ( includes fire/heat )
    SECURITY

    TSHTF does not mean you stop living
    you just change your definition of a " good life "

    Pretty much. Without usury we wouldn't have the world we have today.

    It's funny... today, one of the most inflammatory Biblical expressions is, " the love of money is the root of all evil."
    It pisses people off. They say but but but it's not "money" it's the "love" of money, and I don't "love" money.

    That's Bullshit!

    What was meant by "love" in that Biblical context?

    Well, love meant loyalty, or fealty to a sovereign. A king.

    When our days are dictated by the endless pursuit of money for our very survival,

    WE LOVE MONEY. We are it's vassals. We have become the cattle at the Cowherds mercy.

    Usury is at the root of Jewry. Goyim are the cattle who have been corralled by Cowherds, or Banksters.

    We borrow endlessly believing it will extend our lives, make us livelier and happier, but what it really does is traps us in a sort of lifeless prison, as debt slaves.

    It has come to pass that virtually everyone on earth who uses and trades with money is a slave to it. It is utterly systemic. There really are no human beings that remain untouched by its influences. No one gets around it since money originates with debt.

    Money is Lord and all those who use it for their own life advantages are it's minions. Therefore, the love of money IS the root of all evil.

    Of course, behind the prison walls, there is the glimmer of light that shines from gold and silver.

    The light that shimmers is thought to be Freedom. Freedom from debt to the king.

    But gold and silver have been monetized and turned into commodities and therefore no more liberating than a hunk of coal.
    "Trust those who seek the truth, but doubt those who say they found it."

    There are two kinds of people in this world:
    People who just want to be left alone, and
    People who won't leave them alone.
