Best Federal Reserve Poems


Premium Member Turning To Cicero

"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work instead of living on public assistance."  Cicero , 55 BC
 

controversy over government nothing new

Civil War? oxymoron

in a country divided, there is no civility

protestors fume on Wall Street

Tea Partiers toss their caffeine into the mix

Federal Reserve makes unauthorized loans

but to whom we do not know

states debate seceding from the union

families learn to live on budgets

countries spend what they don’t have

why don’t we learn from history?

“Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s”

is there anything left for us?

look to Cicero and sages of the past

Plato and Socrates will set the disenfranchised straight too



*Entry for Brian’s “Anywhichway” contest

The God of Money

MANIPULATED MONEY.

WALL STREET.

FEDERAL RESERVE NOTE.

THE ONE DOLLAR BILL.

THE EYE OF PROVIDENCE.

NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM.

IN GOD WE TRUST.

ANNUIT COEPTIS.

THE GREAT SEAL.

THE BROTHERHOOD OF THE SNAKE.

THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.


IS THIS OUR MONEY?

DO WE LIVE IN DEBT?

$21 TRILLION DOLLARS IN DEBT.

WHERE IS THE ABUNDANCE?

HOW FAIR IS THIS SYSTEM OF MONEY?

OVER TAXED AND UNDER PAID.

DO NOT QUESTION THE AUTHORITY MADE,

OF A MANIPULATED TAX SYSTEM,

AND OF MANIPULATED MONEY.

IT IS THE GOD OF MONEY.

Premium Member Pope Francis

Pope Francis's belief in the Almighty
has been brought to serious question,
when, on his speech on Origins, 
the Bible received nary a mention -
save for a passing glance at Genesis.
His credibility has dwindled rather perilous
it seems - considering, of course, Catholicism's 
typical rep of condemning holy writ to ostracism.
The acolytes "explode" with his
acceptance of Naturalism,
Evolution and Bigbangerism.
In a pinch he waved his magician's wand
and pronounced all prior blasphemies - gone!
God - he stated - has no such pointy stick
of which to create all, with a simple flick
of his wrist. The Almighty has limits
and shall conform to Francis's rigid
interpretation, thereof. He tips his hat
in one last show of priestly decorum:
I wish you all a most bless-ed
novus ordo seclorum.



NOTE: The term "novus ordo seclorum" is Latin for "New World Order". If you ever forget how to say it, or spell it, just pick up any American federal reserve note - it'll be right under the pyramid with the all-seeing eye.

Premium Member Silence Is Deadly

 Silence is Deadly 

Stand up
if the masses did
Trump would be a gravestone


Notes:

Some will tell you never to be silenced, yet will not mention what exactly is the issue. This is  typical of people purporting propaganda, hoping to win people to their side without really saying what they believe. Let me tell you very clearly. We should never be silenced by those propagating fear and division and stating literally false facts. Hitler did this successfully. Please don't fall for this again. All those close to Trump not involved with him, have clearly stated his lack of knowledge on issues, never mind his prejudicial views and that's being kind. If one or two agencies or departments was critical well ok, almost every agency, The CIA, the FBI, The Federal Reserve, local politicians all along the border, and the list goes into the hundreds, have stated he is wrong. Listen to experts not a con artist. 

Longer before becoming President he has money laundered for Russia, all verifiable facts. 

By the way, the wall is not 5.7 billion, that's an installment, the actual cost depending on who you listen too is between 30 to 60 billion dollars, and that's not were  most of the migrants are even entering the USA.

Do not let McCarthy exist twice!

Powers of heaven
Shaken. 		Gates brought down

Federal reserve
Printing our cage
Turning the page of peraphecy
Illusory trick

Consecrate history
Set the stage

For our hostile reality
To seize control
Take violent action

The end-times arrive
Prophetic signs
Humanity defiled
By our sons of Belial

Gods disdain
focus the iniquitous
Divine in malice
perfect unprejudiced
Expostulate vile villains

Nefarious hearts
No wealth of moral
Only moral is wealth
Engage the knave

Treat the sick
Combating against spiritual health
Can't run from sin
Cannot run from yourself

Dimensional Transcendence
Apocalypse
Accelerates the end.
This blood will rinse

Premium Member Banking

When government spends more than it collects in taxes,
it borrows money from a central bank, and must pay it back with interest.
Government never has the money when the loan is due,
so the burden of this debt falls on the taxpayer, me and you.
When local banks need money, they also borrow from a central bank.
A $100.00 bond gets loaned out to its clients at 10 times the amount.
The central bank and local banks create money out of thin air.
There is nothing backing it, nothing substantial is there,
but when incompetent government defaults and local banks fail,
we the taxpayers must bail them all out, or face some time in jail.
The federal withholding from every blue collar worker's paycheck,
is not taxes, it is our weekly loan payment for this perpetual debt,
a debt we did not create nor do we deserve,
yet we keep feeding those parasites at The Federal Reserve, 
a privately owned bank, governed by a handful of businessmen,
who have a stronghold on not just my country, but many worldwide nations.
These men hire untold numbers of lobbyists to put pressure on Washington,
to establish laws to protect their corrupt monetary system.
There are more laws on the books protecting their banks and corporations,
than there are laws protecting the human rights of our citizens.
Banking is in the business of manufacturing risk.
I say the risk is too great to allow banks and banking to continue to exist.
It is time for a new global emergent society,
governed by a Resource Based Economy.

Capitalizing On Capitalism

Capitalism has been blamed by worthless people rich in power and other peoples' money.

True capitalism earns money.  
Jobs are created by capitalists. 
Workers earn a living from them. 
Bankers gather together workers savings and use this money to create more by usury. This is not capitalism, 
although they do capitalize on other peoples earnings
(and greed)
They also are "The Federal Reserve" 
(They run the money!!) Not congress (They passed it off)
Politicians have capitalized on their positions to such an extent that anyone elected to congress is set for life 
even if he is never re-elected.  
They made these rules.
They decided their salaries and benefits. 
They decided how much to tax us.
They created offices and positions of power, departments of "Government" 
At incredible costs to us all.
To the point that other governments in less free countries use their peoples' money to lend to us.

 We have been sold out.
The blame is being put on "Big Business" "Wall Street" and all those rich Capitalists

Our representatives, Your representatives have no alternative than to turn to Socialism in order to keep lining 
their pockets and living beyond their means.

It is too late to seek and elect real representatives.
They own (have bought) the majority of voters.
America has been stolen.

Me? just another sucker! But at least now you(the reader) know what you've lost
(Or stolen)

Premium Member Thinking

When I was young, seems everything intrigued
From the morning sun, to the evening breeze
Whether, working the farm, till I was fatigued
or learning the secrets of earth, like genetic disease

My journey in life, took many turns and twists
forming my opinions, of how life is best lived
preserve the earth, so children know what exists
Free to walk, see and learn concepts, yet derived

I see children as the wealth, to guard and preserve
Think of others not oneself, a better man will emerge
False idols say, follow the path to the federal reserve
If silver or gold is wealth, this curse you can't purge

Teach all our children, to learn from their elders advice,
before, deciding their path or worth, know the price

Justice Gone Rogue

WHERE IS THE JUSTICE

OF A SOCIETY GONE ROGUE?

INFLATED PRICES, ECONOMIC BUBBLES,

AND UNSUSTAINABLE ECONOMIES

ALL LEAD TO GREED.

I'M TALKING ABOUT YOU,

THE GREEDY POLITICIAN,

SAYING ONE THING AND DOING ANOTHER.

SELLING AMERICA OUT TO THE TOP BIDDER.

YES, IT ALL STARTED MANY DECADES AGO,

WITH THE CREATION OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE IN 1913 AND

NAFTA IN THE 1990's.

DOES ANYONE HAVE A CONSCIOUS MIND ANYMORE?

DOES IT REALLY MATTER HOW AWARE WE ARE?

ONE CAN KEEP UP WITH THE KARDASHIANS OR

WATCH, DANCING WITH THE STARS.

WE ARE PLENTY ENTERTAINED, BUT NOT REALLY INFORMED!

WE ARE LOSING THE BATTLE OF CONSCIOUSNESS.

WE ARE LOSING THE BATTLE FOR THIS REPUBLIC,

CALLED THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

LET'S WAKE UP AND PROTEST THE INJUSTICE OF THIS SOCIETY TODAY!

IT IS A CALL TO ACTION AND A CALL TO REALLY BE AWARE.

THERE ARE NUMEROUS PROBLEMS OCCURRING IN THIS WORLD RIGHT NOW,

CHEM-TRAILS OR GEO-ENGINEERING IS ONE OF MANY PROBLEMS.

TURN OFF THE TV AND READ SOMETHING IMPORTANT TODAY.

A SIDE NOTE, MY RENT ROSE $100.00 DOLLARS TODAY, FOR NO GOOD REASON.

WHERE IS THE JUSTICE? 

KEEP PUSHING FOR A MORE JUST SOCIETY, A FREE SOCIETY!

LET'S COME TOGETHER AND CREATE A BETTER CIVILIZATION.

Thoreau's Question

On this Eid, as your sumum bonum 
Is consumerism and as your soul is 
Mortgaged to the Federal Reserve Bank
And hedonism, your mental wish-list has been
Inked on ‘things-to-dos’. The catalogue is
Quite impressive. Apart from the toddler,
On your lap, often you place your lap-top.
This time before Eid, to go smarter, you have
A must-gadget purchase: Palm-top.
To outshine others, and to add some
Extra gloss to your gadget-profile
You actively consider getting a tablet.
Even though, it is not the diminutive of table
And has nothing to do with the quadruped rectangle
And it is not to be swallowed with water,
It still has some therapeutic attributes.

Your schedule has accrued extra adipose tissue
With a cluster of meetings looming large on the corporate horizon,
You order designer cloths for yourself. Those fancy textile Marco Polos
Globe-trot and come to your door-step riding their
‘You shop, we drop’ policy.
You give blank cheque to your greater-half
To travel to Metropolitan Centres or Peripheral megacities
To epicurianize herself and her cohorts.

From the other side of the horizon,
Thoreau watches you thoroughly and asks,
This time you’ve parted with
From your obesity-ridden bank account.
All this, I know, is cosmetic purpose-driven.
You, proud buddy, spent this much to decorate your body.
Have you spent a single farthing to adorn your soul?

Pain As a Hobby Vi

You’re too selfish you think I’m talking about you!
Hoping the next girl I meet is much richer
So she don’t have the mentality her p**** is as good as cash
Call me genuine 
It has to be more than that that you’re offering me
But definitely it is a weakness and you use it to exploit me
Make it drip and here comes the money tree
But only if it includes all of the Victoria Secret models in my bedroom
Yes, every single one if not - Hasta La Vista!
I’m stingy
But I can take care of me
I don’t believe in dipping in my federal reserve
And blowing it at a strip club and for what
Just to leave and go back into reality
Pain as a hobby
I’m outside in the big van asking for blood
But I will reserve you a plane ticket to get the f*** outta here
An artist unsigned and unheard of 
But all of that has changed now
I started my own companies
Named it after my daughter and my future son King so
The whole family is making a killing
I can’t wait to see her pick up the mic
And pick up the pad and write
Hell, she can be an astronaut if she likes because her
Dad is in her life
I am robbing Peter and Paul
To make sure she has everything she needs
To be successful
If you get too close to the words I speak
You may see the yellow caution tape
I have you figured out outlined in chalk
Beware, I don’t offer hazard pay.
Kind of the way Yulli and I collaborate 
It’s an incinerator 
Your eyes ripping through the words
And causing a fire storm
Now you’re like superman can’t control 
The heat rays
Don’t burn up yet
That’s the same thing that happened to Freddie Krueger
Once the flames engulf you
We coming for you in your dreams
Don’t go to sleep 
Pain as a hobby
I mean what I say

Crazy World

Crazy World

It’s funny how
The universities are still in business
Of producing graduates
That speak funny English
And hardly make invention
And the stock market falls
Down street tumbles
That lets people buy
And make profit
Like grandpa used to say,
True intellectualism died
In the year 1929
With the rise in acumen inflation
It was then that
This Federal Reserve of Ignorance
The true villain of this quandary
Traces its genesis
Hope that explains succinct
This universal impotence

Zeitgeist ( Part One )

Zeitgeist

“ It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society ”
   J. Krishnamurti

1% of the world’s population owns 40% of the planets wealth

34000 children die everyday from poverty and preventable diseases

50% of the world’s population lives on less than $2.00 a day

Only 3% of the U.S.A’s wealth actually exists as money the other 97% is digital

$1.00 in 1913 required $21.60 in 2007 to match its value; that is a 96% devaluation in 94
years since the Federal reserve came into existence

“ If there were no debts in our money system there wouldn’t be any money ”
   Marriner Eccles Governor of The Federal Reserve 1941

Perpetual debt is guaranteed by the Federal Bank

Money was created in the Banking system and ultimately returns to the Banking system with
interest. Who are you working for, none other than The Banks. This is Economic slavery.
What life is there without money, when everyone must feed and house and care for
themselves we become wage slaves. Money is the most ingenious scam for social manipulation
ever created.  

The majority of people in the United States have no idea that they are living off the
benefits of a clandestine empire; that today there is more slavery in the world than ever
before. The un-elected leaders of this empire are the giant corporations, the invisible
powers behind the controlling force of money. Their goal is to maximise profits regardless
of the social and environmental cost. The two largest of these corporations are, The
International Monetary Fund and The World Bank. Poor countries who’s governments have
initially welcomed the help of these corporations are now paying back debts that exceed
50% of their countries wealth. Leading to mass poverty in these countries.

There are 51 giant corporations in the world 47 of which are American.


Something is very wrong here

Land of the Brave and Free

In the land of the brave and the free, and the eagle,
there exists a new breed of man,
who makes corruption and theft legal,
and they do it simply because they can!

They pay billions to the party politicians,
to allow them to operate sans regulation,
they have made it their sole mission,
to control the central power of the nation.

The president has given them the keys,
so they run the federal reserve,
and he's done this because he's,
wanting a second term so he can serve,

not the people whose votes put him in power,
but this new breed of snake oil sellers,
who, even though they should hide and cower,
still appear on tv where they tell us,

that they never did anything wrong,
that their type of stealing's ok,
and that if we all want the economy strong,
then the only way to have it is their way!

I have one question for the Great Democracy,
'why did your people, the brave and the free,
allow the unbridled growth of such a kleptocracy? '
It has blighted the lives of billions, and me!

Playing the Trump Card

Ready to WIN,
Very very RICH,
Yet not owned by special interests,
He loves his money more than you,
Yet not as much as he loves his country,
He has the politicians numbers, 
And their lobbyists too,
Has an EGO large enough to crush our enemies,
Understands the BIG SCAM of the Federal Reserve,
Keeping us down through fear and propaganda,
He is the Howard Cosell of 2016 Presidential Race,
Telling it like it is, not how Big Brother dictates,
Has Washington D.C. establishment shaking in their boots,
He knows the PEOPLE are ready to take their country back,
And the more the empty suits attack him the higher his polls rise,
The winning hand is within his grasp and he is ready to use it,
He is turning the tables on the government scare mongers,
A billionaire who wants to raise the Middle Class to glory again,
Ready to really stop illegal aliens from breaking our laws,
I, for one, am ready to cast my vote for Donald Trump,
The next President Of The United States!
