Silver had to be removed so the Federal Reserve could exist. The Coinage Act of 1873 ended U.S. bimetallism by dropping the silver dollar without a roll-call vote, centralizing credit power. With silver sidelined, it paved the way for the Federal Reserve in 1913. #SilverSqueeze
@NoConfias2000@chrismartenson There's no shame in earning a living from work that improves the lives of others. His record of accuracy has helped many of us replace anxiety with action and fear with preparation. Fear asks questions. Preparation answers them. Chris helps us answer. Find another battlefield.
@rushicrypto The worst of it is that they are putting many of these data centers on farmland. Because we aren't going to need to eat. This is what a death cult looks likes.
#ThisDayInHistory May 10, 1869, the Transcontinental Railroad was completed, linking the U.S. from coast to coast by rail and forever changing travel and trade. Before the railroad, crossing the country by wagon took 4-6 months. Afterward, it took about 7 days by train.
@RicheyBroo71235@GloJean1776@MatrixMysteries@storms_quiet She can buy potatoes & make her own chips. She can also buy flour, sugar, eggs, chocolate chips and make "snacks". The problem isn't WHAT isn't allowed. She is bitching about "convenience" while not working and getting food for free. Get in that kitchen & work for those snacks.
#ThisDayInHistory April 19, 1775, British troops march to seize colonial weapons to crush unrest, but riders like Paul Revere spread the alarm, militia rise, & by nightfall the Battles of Lexington & Concord turned protest into open war. #AmericanRevolution#History
#ThisDayInHistory March 25, 1958 America stopped spending money it had & started spending money it wanted. The 1st mass credit card was offered by banks who wanted more than interest on savings. They wanted interest on everything in your life. #HappyBirthdayToYourDebt#Banking
#ThisDayInHistory January 22, 1935, the Federal Reserve Board acquired the site on Constitution Ave. that would become the Marriner S. Eccles Federal Reserve headquarters in Washington, D.C. It solidified the central bank’s physical and symbolic takeover of the nation. #EndTheFed
Our Town Council keeps raising taxes.
So I showed up with an English Lord’s wig to speak in *favor* of taxes.
“If you can’t pay your taxes…don’t be poor.”
@ProudSocialist@CommunityNotes Propoganda with no context. A revolution can't be started until the people who call for it are the example we want to follow. This is exactly what our government does: brainwash the people with deception. Instead of Karl Marx read The Republic by Plato.
When banks collapsed in the Great Depression, Washington revived silver. The 1934 Silver Purchase Act forced Treasury buying, raised prices by decree, and expanded money without relying on failed banks. Silver was the emergency valve. #SilverSqueeze#HistoryIsOurMap
Venezuela’s "real sin" isn't Maduro or socialism but oil law. In 1943 it pioneered 50/50 profit sharing. In 1976 it nationalized. In 1999 Chávez seized control of PDVSA. That broke an unwritten rule for the US. This is a warning to every resource-rich state watching. #Venezuela
Meet Karl Marx. He never ran a business. Never worked in a factory or managed labor. He lived off family money & stipends from Friedrich Engels, an industrialist, bringing in £10k in the 1860s($1.5 million today). His doctrine was built in comfort not consequence. #Collectivism
