The United States of America is supposed to be a Constitutional Republic. This is easy to say, but what do these words mean? A “Republic” is a form of government where all authority is exercised by the people through their elected representatives. A “Constitutional Republic” is a government where this state of affairs is formerly established by a written constitution. A “Constitution” is an expression of the will of the people and it defines the nature of the government they agree to live under. From a citizen’s perspective, it is a contract between citizens that contains the laws and rules which control their agreed upon government. The government in question had nothing to do with creating its constitution. Instead, it is a document created by citizens and imposed upon government. The constitution, once established, is the wellspring of all other laws, rules and regulations that govern a nation and its citizens.

Understanding all the above, it is obvious that the government bequeathed us by the founders was a Constitutional Republic. The word “was” is used in this last sentence because it should also be obvious that this is no longer true. Our present government pays lip service to our Constitution and routinely ignores its most important provisions.1 Furthermore, when government officials refer to this nation they call us a democracy and never describe us as being a Constitutional Republic. This is not an oversight! Government officials know full well they no longer respect the provisions of our Constitution, so they call us a democracy hoping that knowledge of our constitutional roots fades into oblivion. As citizens, we are no longer supposed to think constitution. Instead, we are continually reminded to think democracy. This is done so those who rule us will be free of our Constitution’s constraints and limitations. With our Constitution neutered and forgotten, their goal has been realized.

If our government is no longer a Constitutional Republic, it is reasonable to conclude that somewhere along the way a change took place. The key question is whether this change happened gradually over time or suddenly at one point in our history. The answer to this question is important. If our government changed gradually over time, it is reasonable to assume that nothing criminal or underhanded occurred. However, if the change occurred suddenly at one point in our history, then the implications are that the changes were the result of a plan. If a deliberate plan was behind how our government changed and this plan was implemented without our knowledge or consent, then it follows that our government was overthrown. A hallmark of the American experiment in democracy is that our government rules by the consent of the governed. If major changes to how our government functions are made through stealth and subterfuge, then the government we are left with does not enjoy our consent and is not legitimate.

Unfortunately, the facts are clear and the evidence supports the conclusion that the government we have today is not the outcome of gradual changes that took place over time. Instead, it is the handiwork of a group of conspirators who met in secret to plot our government’s demise. This was done so they would enjoy a government easier to control and better suited to their self-serving purposes. Who are these people? One name we call them is the Federal Reserve Bank or Fed, but they also call themselves the New World Order. This name is deceptive, because the so-called New World Order is really the old world order with an upscale name. Whatever they call themselves, they are the rich and powerful old-line banking families who have pulled the strings that made the world dance through the centuries. Their plot was brought to fruition concurrent with passage of the Federal Reserve Act in 1913. Most Americans think the Federal Reserve Act was a legitimate act of Congress. Nothing could be further from the truth.

In order to establish that our government was overthrown, four elements of this crime must be demonstrated to be true. These are:
  • Identification of a group of conspirators.

  • Establishment of the group’s willful intent to commit the crime.

  • Identification of actions taken to consummate the crime.

  • Identification of what changed as a result of the actions taken.
Before proceeding, it should be understood that the Federal Reserve Act is unconstitutional. Article 1, Section 8, of our constitution states that Congress shall have the power “to coin money and regulate the value thereof”. This power is not so much a power, but instead a responsibility of Congress. Nowhere in our Constitution is authority given to defer, subordinate or transfer this responsibility to someone else, especially to a foreign banking cartel. The Federal Reserve Act is unconstitutional because it stands in flagrant violation of Article 1, Section 8, of our Constitution, but more so when one realizes the tremendous authority and power Congress wrongfully handed over to a group of private bankers. These men were voted the right to create our money with the stroke of a pen and then loan it back to us at interest. The problem is, upon so doing, the American people are on the hook to pay back the amount borrowed plus interest, with money not created out of thin air, but earned through industry and hard work. What do Americans get for toiling to make these men rich beyond anyone’s wildest dreams? Nothing! We get absolutely nothing but recessions, depressions, inflation, war, destruction, suffering, mayhem, and death!

At this point, it should be clear that we have identified our group of conspirators and from this point forward we will call them “Banksters”. This name works well because they are an international banking cartel that owns most of the central banks of the world. In any case, in 1910 representatives of these Banksters met secretly at Jekyll Island, Georgia,2 to map out a strategy to hoodwink Congress into passing the Federal Reserve Act. This act of Congress made the Banksters’ foreign banking cartel the Central Bank of the United States. As terrible and wrongful as this development is, taken at face value it does not constitute a willful intent to commit a crime.

However, if one understands what really happened, the criminal nature of these doings becomes apparent. Mayer Anselm Rothschild, who was one of the most influential and powerful bankers of all time, said, “Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its laws.” The legislative process, without question, is a prime function of government. If as Mr. Rothschild explained, this prime function is trumped or overshadowed by those who issue and control money, then it follows that the Jekyll Island conspirators knew that by obtaining control of our money supply they would also be taking control of our Government.

It is one thing for a special interest group to induce Congress to pass legislation that will be of benefit to them. It is quite another thing to cajole, bribe and hoodwink congress into passing legislation that changes the nature and form of our government. Unfortunately, this is what happened. The Jekyll Island conspirators knew that passage of the Federal Reserve Act meant they would have the power to dominate and control our government. To argue these men met in secret for some other purpose beneficial to the American people is ridiculous. Taking control in the manner and for the reasons they did was solely to their benefit and to the detriment of the American people. Thus, the conspirator’s willful intent to commit a crime has been demonstrated.

In all likelihood, you are still not convinced that an overthrow of our Government occurred. If all that happened in 1913 was passage of the Federal Reserve Act, most people would agree with you. However, the plot was far more extensive than the simple passage of an act of Congress. In 1913, Amendment XVI3 was also ratified. The intent of this amendment was to create a new source of revenue by legalizing a tax on the wages earned by American workers. Prior to 1913, our Government obtained all the money it needed from duties, tariffs and other charges for services. A tax on the wages of working Americans is prohibited by Article I, Section 9, Clause 4, of our Constitution, which provides that Congress cannot levy a direct tax on individual citizens. However, the Banksters knew that a new and significant revenue source would be needed to pay for the soon-to-be rapidly growing national debt. They also wanted to ensure that they owned a measure of every working American’s time and labor. Therefore, they took steps to get this wrongful and misplaced power through ratification of Amendment XVI. However, despite all their efforts and the strings they pulled to ensure its ratification, they never anticipated that the Supreme Court would throw a monkey wrench into their plans by ruling that Amendment XVI did not accomplish its intended purpose.

The Banksters believed the wording in Amendment XVI would provide them with a new source of revenue: a direct tax on the earnings of every working American. However, in the case of Pollock vs. Farmers’ loan and Trust Company,4 the Supreme Court ruled that Amendment XVI failed to accomplish this. Thus, a tax on the wages of working Americans remained unconstitutional. The Court reasoned that income referred only to returns from investments and profits realized by businesses. Wages paid to American workers, according to the Court, is not income. Instead, wages are a simple exchange of money for a person’s time and labor. Such an exchange is akin to bartering or the exchange of things of equal value between people. No income is involved or derived from such an exchange. This ruling meant that the Banksters failed to constitutionally create the new revenue source they coveted. However, this setback was no problem for them and what happened next demonstrates that these doings are a step in a well-thought-out plan.

The Banksters simply ignored the Supreme Court ruling and implemented a tax on wages anyway, even though it was unconstitutional. Today, we dutifully pay our income taxes without realizing that paying them is not legally required. There is no basis for paying a tax on earnings under constitutional law. Taking this a step further, it can reasonably be argued that when our Government insists we obey the law and pay our income taxes, it is guilty of fraud. Furthermore, if our Government takes us to court and forces us to pay income taxes, it is guilty of robbery. If this state of affairs doesn’t demonstrate the wrongful and misplaced power handed to the Banksters by Congress through the Federal Reserve act, then nothing does. From 1913 forward, our newly created Government was above the law and could ignore our Supreme Court when necessary. In case one fails to see the significance of this, it means that our Supreme Court is no longer supreme.

Amendment XVII5 was also added to our Constitution in 1913 and this amendment provided for the direct election of Senators by citizens instead of being appointed by our State Legislators as the founders intended. The founding fathers must have made a mistake when they decided this matter. Amendment XVII is a wonderful step forward for democracy. Upon ratification, We The People had the right to vote for all our representatives in Congress instead of just those in the House of Representatives. Unfortunately, while this development appears to be beneficial, nothing is further from the truth. Instead, ratification of Amendment XVII was a diabolical step that completed the ignoble transformation of our government.

Prior to ratification of Amendment XVII, the Federal government was a federation of State governments. In keeping with this, the states exercised control over the Federal government by appointing two representatives to the United States Senate. The Senate is the superior arm of Congress and serves as a check on the powers of the President. By changing this arrangement, the Banksters eliminated a crucial check and balance of our Constitution. However, far worse is that this also changed the fundamental nature of our Government. Upon ratification of Amendment XVII, our Federal government was no longer a federation of states answerable to the State Legislatures. Instead, it became an all-powerful National government superior to and dominant over our State governments.

At this point, we have identified three major changes, all of which occurred in 1913 and were specifically designed to change the nature and form of our government. Furthermore, when these changes where implemented, most people had no clue as to what they really entailed. In other words, the nation was hoodwinked into accepting these changes. This is not the way such things are supposed to be done. Informed consent means that We The People are apprised of the implications or end results of what our Government is trying to accomplish through legislation or the amendment process. In 1913, neither our Government nor the media informed us about what was really being done to us.

To summarize, the Federal Reserve Act gave the Banksters control of our monetary system. This gave them enormous wealth, which enabled them to control and corrupt our Government as well as other key institutions of our society. Amendment XVI was supposed to create a new revenue source by taxing the wages of American workers. When Amendment XVI failed to accomplish its intended purpose, the Banksters implemented an unconstitutional tax on wages anyway. Finally, Amendment XVII was added to our Constitution, which severed the control the states had over our Federal Government. The coup was complete! The Banksters were in control and we were a subjugated people. A summary of these changes follows.

Before 1913:
  • Our Federal Government obeyed the law and our Constitution.

  • Our Federal Government was a federation of State governments and was limited in scope and power.

  • Senators were appointed by State governments.

  • The Supreme Court was supreme.

  • Congress created our money and regulated its value.

  • State governments had a measure of control over our Federal Government.

  • No tax on income or wages was necessary.

  • Americans were free to keep and enjoy the fruits of their labor.
After 1913:
  • Our Federal government became a National Government with unlimited power.

  • Our Constitution was rendered dysfunctional and nonbinding upon our new National government.

  • State governments no longer had any way of controlling our new National government and were subordinate to it.

  • The Supreme Court was no longer supreme.

  • The Fed controlled our money supply and regulated its value.

  • An unconstitutional income tax on the wages of American workers was established.

  • Senators were elected to office by popular vote.
In Conclusion, in 1910 a group of conspirators met on Jekyll Island to plan an across-the-board takeover of our Government. The nature of this takeover was complex and far reaching. It changed Americans from being a free and independent people into being the economic slaves of the Banksters. There may be many of us still reluctant to acknowledge the validity of these astounding conclusions. Fortunately, we have a high-level government official who will help us surmount this hurdle. President Woodrow Wilson was our president in 1913 and he championed passage of the Federal Reserve Act. However, President Wilson was a man with a conscience. In his waning years he came to realize the terrible mistake he had made and the horrible consequences of his mistake. To salve his conscience he issued the following statement:

“I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is now controlled by its system of credit. We are no longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men.”

President Wilson was not an ignorant man, nor was he delusional when he wrote the above words. He knew exactly what he was talking about. Passage of the Federal Reserve Act in 1913 meant the American people were no longer masters of their own fate. Instead, a group of super-rich bankers would call the shots and pull the strings that made us dance. The great irony in this is that the wealth we are talking about came from us. The Banksters did nothing to earn this money and had no justification for keeping it. However, keep it they did, because Congress foolishly and wrongfully voted to allow them to do so.

[LW1]If you plan to capitalize Constitution in reference to the American constitution, ensure that it is consistent throughout. I have caught it where I’ve been able to, but please ensure that I’ve caught all instances of this reference.
 
Wilson never wrote or spoke the first two sentences.

The quote is twisted from a campaign speech to make him look like he had responsible for the Act and regretted it.

The poster above does not vet his sources.

He can be disregarded.
 
I question what you say because the quote is all over the internet. However, even if you are correct, this does little to reduce the cogency of the post's main contention. From my perspective, you can discard yourself for focusing on an insignificance in order to discredit a major premise which has been adequately and clearly established.
 
Your major premise is lie: WW did not take credit for the act and consider it a bad thing. There is no cogency of integrity to your comment. You are a liar to defend the premise.

Your argument is nothing but a dried turd inside a thin shell of chocolate.
 
Wow, you sure like to grab at straws to make your point. Are you an American or one of those guys in Asia that our government hires to destroy political discourse in this Nation and throughout the world?

The best suggestion I can offer you is to go out and find a real job so will be able to look people in the eye without feeling guilty. Even the picture you use says it best; some kind of worm or insect intent upon eating the substance of a proper political discussion. Why don't you address the major points made in my post? You won't because you can't, so you attack the messenger instead.
 
The best suggestion I can offer you is to check your quotes. The earliest your full quote appears is about 2006.

Woodrow Wilson may have been unhappy with the amendment and law, but he did not say the first two sentences as if he were taking responsibility. You need to take responsibility for that error.

Once you do that, then you can talk about how he felt about it.

The far right has a history of citing false quotes to American leaders, then when found out, they want to talk about what he or she supposedly said, instead of admitting, 'well, I got that wrong, I admit it."
 
You just can't seem to get off the Wilson thing can you? Our government was overthrown irrespective of what Woodrow Wilson said or didn't say and this point is well established by all the other arguments offered. The quote, to me, was only cream on the pudding, but the pudding is just as good without the cream. My question to you is why are focusing on what is not important in light of everything that was offered that is important? From my perspective, you are playing the role of spoiler for being a spoiler's sake. Again you are not able to address the real important issues, so you focus on one that has nothing to do with price of tea in China.

Our Government was overthrown by those who have declared themselves a New World Order. A New World Order is incompatible with the government bequeathed us by the Founders and as a result, they had to overthrow our government in order to implement their nefarious plans for a world dictatorship. This is the truth we all live with today and a truth which you deny as a reflex because it is abhorrent to you.

If all you have to offer is that I misquoted Woodrow Wilson, then please do not waste my time or the time of other who follow this thread because Woodrow Wilson has nothing to do with the truth that has been established.

One more time with feeling; if you understand anything about our Constitution, you should understand that it is written such that nothing is superior to it. If there is a New World order, which there is, then this New World Order is repugnant to our Constitution. Q.E.D. If you truly are a responsible human being, then tell us why this is not the case.......please!
 
The New Freedom

Read page 185 and page 201.

They have been taken out of context and it was campaign speeches he made in 1911.
No where in any history papers or reports has ever had Wilson say "I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country".
It is conspiracy sites that are making these false statements.

I do agree with you that the Progressives changed this nation from individuals to collective and changed how our Government was run.
Yes there will be a one World Government that has been set up by Progressives in Europe and America.
 
I introduced Wilson only to reinforce my point. His significance pales in comparison to the thrust of my post.

NOW, if you persist in this line of stupidity, it is a reflection of your irresponsibility and lack of concern to learning the truth. As any true American knows and understands, anyone who stands in opposition to the truth is not an American. You sir, side with the enemy. Your focus upon what may or not be an error on my part, instead of what is important. This is evidence of a life gone astray and one that we should say a prayer for.

I apologize for subjecting the rest of you to this stupidity, but the price of freedom is high. One of the prices we have to pay is indulging a human being who professes Americanism but has no idea of what Americanism is.
 
YOU are the one who made the misquote and then tried to say in effect "Oh, that's OK, let's go on."

Nope, it is not OK.

You correct me for pointing out you fucked up a quote, and until you admit that and that it was serious, I am not go let go of you.
 
It was the framers of our Constitution that met agreeing not to say one word about their work on the new Constitution, it was done in secrecy.
The delegates were sent to Philadelphia to revise the Articles of Confederation not to create a new Constitution, but they violated the mission and created a new government.
The United States is both a republic and a democracy, and in fact over the years has grown more democratic.
The opening words of the Constitution, "We the people...."

So what's your point? That the Founders overthrew the government we had and the Banksters did the same thing, which makes it okay. However, there is a huge difference! The Founders overthrew our government so Americans would be a free people. The Banksters overthrew our government to enslave us. Kapish?

That is wise. Fakey is full of it most days.

He thinks there is a mystical far right cabal controlling all things, yet he can't name one person or organization making up this figment of his imagination.

It is clear to most thinking Americans, that the Constitution is no longer the law of the land. It has been bastardized and 1913 certainly holds much of the responsibility. We have a government of the elites, by elites, for elites...which is the common form of government throughout human history.
