The Source of Federal Reserve System Reserves

Wall Street has been seriously flip-flopping in the last few days in a major way. This, in turn, has affected markets around the world. For the first time since 9/11/01, central banks all over the world are working together to "inject cash" to try and calm things things down.

The Federal Reserve injected $24 billion dollars Thursday and announced today they would inject $19 billion more. ECB (European Commerce Bank) injected 61 billion euros ($83.8 billion USD), and Japan's central bank injected 1 trillion yen ($8.4 billion USD).

I created the poll associated with this thread as a sort of consciousness raising experiment. Select what you think is the source of the reserves the Federal Reserve injects into US money markets.

Sell offs of gold and silver from the U.S. Mint

The USA has given the peoples money off to private backs so the people really have no control over what they use the peoples money for.
Same as income tax...........which there is really no law to enforce because there is no law, its unconsitutional because you can tax labor pay off.
You get paid to work for a company that profits from your hard earned work.............so how can they then take your money from the work you got paid to do.

The income tax law was created for large comanies that make huge profits and can for others to do the hard work for them. but as we all know today that the large corparations get tax cuts while the common people a forced to work their lives away and give up large percentages of "their" income to the government in place of the money that should come from the Wal-marts, and Homedepots.

I can go on forever about how wrong this system is but we all should know the truth by now...................it's up to you to wake up and see whats going on.

I'm glad you gave us a choice because I don't think anyone actually knows exactly what they get up to.

I would have thought they would print more notes, as I don't think they have that amount in gold to sell off, plus the speed at which they would have to sell it.

They would most likely print more notes and give a loan to the US Treasury at interest to the government, then the government would have to raise taxes etc in order to repay the Fed.

What is amazing is that the Federal Reserve is a privately owned corporation with 70% of its major shareholders being foreigners (non-Americans), located in foreign countries. Makes you wonder.

Yes, it does. Especially when you consider that this privately owned organization:
  • Is the only entity in the world allowed to print USD. Technically, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing prints USD, but that is a red herring since the BEP only prints up mo' money when the Fed instructs them to do so.
  • Is the only bank in the US that is not audited. The Fed Res board is composed of bankers who do all their business in secret, behind locked doors and armed guards. Their decisions affect the wealth of the entire world. Yet, they are not required by any law, domestic or international, to inform anyone of what they do - not even POTUS, the Senate, or the Secretary of the Treasury.
  • Deliberately and knowingly creates and maintains inflation.

That is why I think it doesn't matter who is the president of the usa. These reserve bankers appear to have the true power.

I have a question though, when Greenspan quit, who determines who takes his position?

Mucho thanks for this topic. Maybe after we've learned more about its inner beginnings, its history and present manipulations by not only "America's" Federal Reserve System and by all Central Banks in this trick bagged world.

Gold? What gold? Where is it? What's the function, if any, of America's Fort Knox, today? Gold dealers still market gold coins, etc; but where is it? Could this be a three card moley slight of hand magical trick?

Didn't he left the Fed last year? Oh, and Bush nominated his top adviser Bernanke for the position, tells you a lot doesn't it?

Interestingly enough, Greenspan has been hired to advise the securities unit of Deutsche Bank AG, Germany's biggest bank today.

They may have what it takes to buy many if not most faces of power; don't know if they have "the true power;" to follow that line of logic, then all others might as well give up their battles for self liberations. Doncha think?

Its rumored that the CFR members have much to say about who's to be prez and to fill other positions of power.Ever peep its website's roster of names, etc.?

And listed responsibilities? And for a long time, I wondered how in hell did Vernon Jordan bcome such a biggie. Lo & behold his an Andy Young's names have been listed for a very long time. Remember now Vernon Jordan was shot in Indiana (he too was on the balcony of a motel) supposedly by some kkk types for messing with white women around the time Black folk were working to form a Black Political Party. Then almost as if by magic he appears as one who stayed in Bill Clinton's ears, as an advisor.

Oh Baba, I remember getting a list at one of Steve Cokelys lectures. You know Brother Cokely is all about naming names. He gave a list of the CFR and all members of the Boule in the different cities.

Hey Baba, missed you around here, If you hadn't showned up in another day I was callng you and sending a search party out for ya.

Sounds like someone here buys into Steve Cokely's theory that the Fed Res is influenced by the CFR [Council of Foreign Relations] --- which, in turn, influences the Boule' [Sigma Pi Phi -- black greeks] --- with the Trilateral Commission pulling all of their strings.
