[size="4"][color="#008080"]Part XIII[size="2"] (of XIII)[/size][/color][/size][size="4"] [/size]ââ¬â [size="2"]adapted transcript of The Capitalist Conspiracy (by G. Edward Griffin), a 1969 documentary[/size]
In the limited time available we have attempted to demonstrate that the conspiratorial view of history ââ¬â particularly of recent history ââ¬â is the correct view. Let us summarize, now, eight major conclusions:
[indent]1. There is and has been for some time a conspiracy among some of the richest people in the world, a conspiracy that virtually owns the money systems of the major non-Communist nations. This monopoly is protected by the power of the respective governments, and is used to perpetuate the conspiracyââ¬â¢s vast wealth by the creation of money out of nothing.
2. In the United States, this monetary fraud is perpetuated through the Federal Reserve System. Although the executive branch theoretically has some control over this system through occasional appointments, in reality, it is the system and those behind it who control the executive branch.
3. The Capitalist conspiracy in this country surfaces to public view in the form of the semi-secret Council on Foreign Relations. Its members exercise their control over the nation through government, tax-exempt foundations, centers of education, and the mass communications media.
4. On the surface, the Capitalist conspiracy appears to oppose Communism. It spends billions of dollars in spectacular military displays of anti-Communism all around the world, but never to the extent of seriously harming the enemy, and certainly not to the extent of defeating him. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, the conspiracy always has nourished and aided Communism, both at home and abroad. It does this, not because it is pro-Communist, but because it needs the appearance of a formidable foe and the chaos by-product of a managed conflict to advance its own goals of totalitarian world government.
5. There is much evidence indicating that the Capitalistic and Communist conspiracies both are directed by a single master conspiracy which may have continuity with the Order of the Illuminati which are founded 200 years ago. But this historical question is not nearly as important as the immediate question of what can be done about it today.
6. As for our response, we must begin to dismantle the conspiracyââ¬â¢s machine of big government. We must restore American independence. We must return our schools to local control. We must protect our police forces from federal air which is the certain path to a national police force controlled from Washington. We must denounce revenue sharing as a transparent device leading to the control over local government. We must raise up men for political office who not only talk about reducing government, but who will do it once they are elected ââ¬â and that means men who are totally independent of Establishment politics.
7. We must reduce the Federal Reserve System to a service function of clearing checks between banks only. Merely turning the System as it stands over to the federal government, as some have suggested, will not solve the problem. The same people would control it either way. The root of the evil is that money is created out of nothing, and the Insiders could do that today just as easily directly through government as they do through the Federal Reserve System. The ultimate solution is to prevent anyone ââ¬â in or our of government ââ¬â from manipulating the money supply. And the only way to do that is to return our money to the gold and silver standards.
8. We must expose the conspiracy to public view. If, somehow, every American could be made aware of the facts contained in this presentation, if it were possible to circumvent the Establishmentââ¬â¢s channels of mass communication and carry this message person-to-person to our friends, and neighbors, and fellow club members, the conspiracy will collapse like a house of cards.
[/indent]
Yes, the hour is late, but it is not too late if we are realistic in our efforts. As Americans, we can still speak out without fear of imprisonment. We can still join together into patriotic groups to multiply our effectiveness. We can still challenge the Establishmentââ¬â¢s candidates. We still retain that remnant of power to regain control of our own government. With Divine guidance and with your help, it can be done.
