I haven't posted much since becoming a member. However I have spent a considerable amount of time in the last 4 years studying the history of the Federal Reserve, the Rothschilds, fractional banking, and the US government and its status as a corporation. For those who are skeptical, there are many reliable references and a good place to start is the book "The Creature From Jekyll Island". Many people believe, as I did at one time, that our taxes(Federal income tax) pay for infrastructure, schools, etc. However, research will show that all our Federal taxes go to pay the interest on the US debt to the Federal Reserve. The government simply borrows what it needs to run from the Federal Reserve. The IRS is the "collection arm" of the Fed. It is simply illusion, like our fiat money.
Bash away or do the research. I didn't believe it either until I read the facts on the subject.
