I was recently asked by the END THE FED movement to take a shot at creating a flyer that could be used at the opening of the new movie, The International starring Clive Owen and Naomi Watts due to open on February 13, 2009.  (Movie trailer below)  It is available in MSWord or PDF by email request but I am sure it will either be edited or discarded.  I would like to take a little credit for the opening slogan, which came from a conversation I had recently with a close friend. 

A Close Friend: “I voted for Obama in the election.”

Me: “WHAT?  I told you all about him!  You agreed with me he was up to no good!”

Friend: “I thought you said Obama was ‘Change I Could Believe In’!”

Me:  “WHAT?  NO! I said “CHAINS YOU CAN BELIEVE IN“!!!”

Any thoughts on this draft? Particularly looking for any cool honest money jingles!

Here’s the draft:

“CHAINS” We Can Believe In

1.  The FED is a quasi-private banking corporation created by Congress in 1913. Congress has never audited the FED. Barack Obama and Congress have no control over the FED!

• “Monetary policy is exempt from audit by the Government Accountability Office.” – [link edited for length] (page 15/146)

• “The Federal Reserve is an independent agency, and that means, basically, that there is no other agency of government which can overrule actions that we take.”  -  Alan Greenspan when asked by Jim Lehrer about the FED’s relationship with the President.

2.  Stockholders in the FED own shares with a guaranteed 6% dividend, and the identity of these private member bank stockholders has never been shared with the public. (ibid, page 21/146)
3.  The FED is responsible for the Great Depression and 11 recessions, including RIGHT NOW

• “Regarding the Great Depression. You’re right, we did it. We’re very sorry.” Ben Bernanke, FED Chairman, November 8, 2002 [link edited for length]
• Read Murray Rothbard’s The Case Against the FED for free! (mises.org/books/fed.pdf)
• See “The FED’s Grade Card” at [link edited for length]

4.  The FED’s monetary policy is dishonest. “Inject liquidity” = Create money out of thin air!

• If you deposit $100 in any bank, the bank only keeps $10 and then loans out the other $90 and creates another $900 in new money! ([link edited for length])

• Newly created money from the FED is the CAUSE of inflation, not the prices of goods! Inflation steals your purchasing power from your wallet! Inflation kills savers and those on fixed incomes, and makes you work harder! Read “What Has the Government Done to Our Money?” ([link edited for length])

5.  FDIC Insurance is a Fraud! Only $0.66 out of every $100 you deposit is insured! The entire banking system is insolvent and will collapse! ([link edited for length])
6.  Silver and Gold are the only forms of lawful money in America as enshrined by Article 1, Section 10 of the Constitution. The FED helped destroy our last link to gold by Nixon in 1971, and the last commonly circulated coins that were 90% silver were last stamped in 1964.

The FED is causing our Financial Crisis and ruining our great country!

Are you going to just let it happen? And watch as we will lose our Jobs and our Wealth without a fight?

Take a stand for yourself, your family, and all Americans!!
