Imperialism in America, Protocols

The following book from 1892 gives a good explanation on how the “imperialists” enslave us.
It’s focus is on the USA from roughly 1860-1891.

By controlling money, land and transportation it´s easy to control the labour of a population.
After gaining control of the money - with the power to inflate or contract it at pleasure - all other sources of wealth are at the command of the money monger.

In 1866 money contraction was commenced that resulted in the crash of 1873, and caused the American people to suffer for the next five years. They made bonded debt, established their national banks and destroyed two-thirds of the people's money.
In 1866, the total money supply was $1,803,702,726 – $50.76 per capita.
By 1877, the total money supply was $696,443,394 – only $14.60 per capita.

1864—This year the government sold bonds valued at $381,292,250, for which it received only—as gold was worth $2.01—$139,697,636, or less than one-half of their face value. The money speculators made a profit of $191,594,613. Add to this interest for ten years, $114,956,768, and they took from us that year $306,551,382.

1865—During that year the Government sold bonds to the value of $279,746,150, for which it received, however, only $208,213,090. The robbers retained for themselves $71,532,060. Adding the interest for nine years, $38,627,307, and they stole in 1865 $110,159,367.

1866—This year bonds were sold to the value of $124,914,400, for which we received only $88,591,773, giving the money sharks a net profit of $36,332,627. Add to this the interest for eight years, $17,434,556, and they made out of the people a total of $53,757,183.

1867 —This year bonds were sold to the value of $421,469,550, for which the purchasers paid the government only $303,s05,503, giving them a profit of$118,254,047. Add to this interest paid them for seven years, $48,671,494, and that year they stole a grand total of $167,915,741.

1868—This year the government sold bonds valued at $425,443,800, for which it received, however, only $312,626,326, leaving a profit to the speculators of $112,617,497. Add the interest for six years, $40,542,288, and we find the government gave to the speculators this year $153,159,765 more of the people's property.

According to the United States Treasurer's report of 1892 the total paid interest on bonds from 1862 to 1891 is $2,481,454,408. This is interest on the people's money which was destroyed.
This resulted in a total of $12,940,015,890 profits made on an original debt of $2,680,000,000! And the debt continues to grow every year.

The New York Times of 12 August 1877, proposed as the “solution” for the suffering farmer to become tenants of “their” land:

There seems to be but one remedy... It is a change of ownership of the soil, and the creation of a class of land-owners on one side, and of tenant farmers on the other, something similar in both cases to what has long existed, and now exists, in the older countries of Europe.

The following from the pen of Senator Sharon, published in the Nevada Chronicle, shows the determination of the money power to rob and enslave the toiling masses:

We need a stronger Government. The wealth of the country demands it. Without capital and the capitalists our government would not be worth a fig. The capital of the country demands protection ; its rights are as sacred as the rights of the paupers who are continually prating about the encroachment of capital and against centralization. We have tried Grant and tee know him to be the man for the place above all others. He has nerve.

As president he would be commander-in-chief of the army and navy, and when the communistic tramps of the country raised mobs to tear up railroad tracks and to sack cities on the sham cry of 'bread or blood,' he would not hesitate to turn loose upon them canister and grape. The wealth of the country has to bear the burdens of the Government, and it shall controlit. The people are becoming educated up to this theory rapidly, and the sooner this theory is recognized in the constitution and laws the better it will be for the people.

On 21 March 1892, the Chicago Daily Press published a dispatch from Wall Street, in which the capitalists instruct their henchmen:

We must proceed with caution and guard well every move made, for the lower orders of the people are already showing signs of restless commotion. Prudence will therefore dictate a policy of apparent yielding to the popular will—until all of our plans are so far consummated that we can declare our designs with out fear of any organized resistance. The Farmers' Alliance and Knights of Labor organizations in the United States should be carefully watched by our trusted men, and we must take immediate steps to either control these organizations in our interests, or to disrupt them. At the coming Omaha convention, to be held July 4, our men must attend and direct its movements, else there will be set on foot such antagonism to our designs as may require force to overcome. This, at the present time, would be premature; we are not yet ready for such a crisis.

Capital must protect itself in every possible manner, through combination and legislation. The courts must be called to our aid, debts must be collected, bonds and mortgages foreclosed as rapidly as possible. When, through process of law, the common people have lost their homes, they will be more tractable and easily governed—through the influence of the strong arm of government—applied by a central power of imperial wealth under the control of leading financiers. A people without homes will not quarrel with their rulers. History repeats itself in regular circles; this truth is well known among our principal men now engaged in forming an imperialism of capital to govern the world. While they are doing this, the people must be kept in a condition of political antagonism. The question of tariff reform must be urged through the organization known as the Democratic party. And the question of protection, with reciprocity, must be forced to public view through the Republican party. By thus dividing the voters we can get them to expend their energies in fighting each other over questions of no importance to us, except as tethers to lead the common herd.
Thus, by discreet action, we can secure all that has been so generously planned, and thus far successfully accomplished.

In about the middle of the 19th century, Sir John Lubbock declared that "the money power of the world was making an effort by means of reduced wages to fasten a rule upon the masses and place them upon a footing more degrading and dependent than have ever been known in history".
With computer technology this aim appears to be fully achieved...

According to the mainstream media the “Protocols of the Elders of Zion” is an anti-Semitic forgery. I believe that it’s a “real” document as in more than 100 years they haven’t been able to invent a single convincing argument that it is indeed fake...
The previous account reminds me of the “Protocols”, see the following excerpts.

PROTOCOL No. 6
7. To complete the ruin of the industry of the GOYIM we shall bring to the assistance of speculation the luxury which we have developed among the GOYIM, that greedy demand for luxury which is swallowing up everything. WE SHALL RAISE THE RATE OF WAGES WHICH, HOWEVER, WILL NOT BRING ANY ADVANTAGE TO THE WORKERS, FOR, AT THE SAME TIME, WE SHALL PRODUCE A RISE IN PRICES OF THE FIRST NECESSARIES OF LIFE, ALLEGING THAT IT ARISES FROM THE DECLINE OF AGRICULTURE AND CATTLE-BREEDING: WE SHALL FURTHER UNDERMINE ARTFULLY AND DEEPLY SOURCES OF PRODUCTION, BY ACCUSTOMING THE WORKERS TO ANARCHY AND TO DRUNKENNESS AND SIDE BY SIDE THEREWITH TAKING ALL MEASURE TO EXTIRPATE FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH ALL THE EDUCATED FORCES OF THE "GOYIM."


PROTOCOL No. 20
20. Economic crises have been producer by us for the GOYIM by no other means than the withdrawal of money from circulation. Huge capitals have stagnated, withdrawing money from States, which were constantly obliged to apply to those same stagnant capitals for loans. These loans burdened the finances of the State with the payment of interest and made them the bond slaves of these capitals .... The concentration of industry in the hands of capitalists out of the hands of small masters has drained away all the juices of the peoples and with them also the States ....

27. The reforms projected by us in the financial institutions and principles of the GOYIM will be clothed by us in such forms as will alarm nobody. We shall point out the necessity of reforms in consequence of the disorderly darkness into which the GOYIM by their irregularities have plunged the finances. The first irregularity, as we shall point out, consists in their beginning with drawing up a single budget which year after year grows owing to the following cause: this budget is dragged out to half the year, then they demand a budget to put things right, and this they expend in three months, after which they ask for a supplementary budget, and all this ends with a liquidation budget. But, as the budget of the following year is drawn up in accordance with the sum of the total addition, the annual departure from the normal reaches as much as 50 per cent in a year, and so the annual budget is trebled in ten years. Thanks to such methods, allowed by the carelessness of the GOY States, their treasuries are empty. The period of loans supervenes, and that has swallowed up remainders and brought all the GOY States to bankruptcy.

28. You understand perfectly that economic arrangements of this kind, which have been suggested to the GOYIM by us, cannot be carried on by us.
29. Every kind of loan proves infirmity in the State and a want of understanding of the rights of the State. Loans hang like a sword of Damocles over the heads of rulers, who, instead of taking from their subjects by a temporary tax, come begging with outstretched palm of our bankers. Foreign loans are leeches which there is no possibility of removing from the body of the State until they fall off of themselves or the State flings them off. But the GOY States do not tear them off; they go on in persisting in putting more on to themselves so that they must inevitably perish, drained by voluntary blood-letting.

30. What also indeed is, in substance, a loan, especially a foreign loan? A loan is - an issue of government bills of exchange containing a percentage obligation commensurate to the sum of the loan capital. If the loan bears a charge of 5 per cent, then in twenty years the State vainly pays away in interest a sum equal to the loan borrowed, in forty years it is paying a double sum, in sixty - treble, and all the while the debt remains an unpaid debt.
31. From this calculation it is obvious that with any form of taxation per head the State is baling out the last coppers of the poor taxpayers in order to settle accounts with wealth foreigners, from whom it has borrowed money instead of collecting these coppers for its own needs without the additional interest.

32. So long as loans were internal the GOYIM only shuffled their money from the pockets of the poor to those of the rich, but when we bought up the necessary person in order to transfer loans into the external sphere, all the wealth of States flowed into our cash- boxes and all the GOYIM began to pay us the tribute of subjects.
33. If the superficiality of GOY kings on their thrones in regard to State affairs and the venality of ministers or the want of understanding of financial matters on the part of other ruling persons have made their countries debtors to our treasuries to amounts quite impossible to pay it has not been accomplished without, on our part, heavy expenditure of trouble and money.

34. Stagnation of money will not be allowed by us and therefore there will be no State interestbearing paper, except a one per- cent series, so that there will be no payment of interest to leeches that suck all the strength out of the State. The right to issue interest-bearing paper will be given exclusively to industrial companies who will find no difficulty in paying interest out of profits, whereas the State does not make interest on borrowed money like these companies, for the State borrows to spend and not to use in operations.
