The deeper truth it is quiet simple, so simple that, at first glance, the mind will refuse it. The truth is that we are controlled by a group of people, but because they can and they do create the money, and that's it. Money it is created and landed by private corporations, that we call Banks. If this simple fact changes, everything will be very different. Lincoln printed the money and boom, assassinated. Napoleon also printed the money, Gadaffi too, etc..they became public enemy #1
Banks land money that they don't have (money lenders), because money it is an idea (in our case, money is debt). Any government ask to a private bank X quantity of money, for example, to the Federal Reserve (which is not Federal, and has no reserve), and then the government has a debt of X plus interest to the Bank, this debt is the money we use.
Ohh please sir rich banker, can you give me money please!! we are theirs slaves, only because we do not understands the greatest paradigm of all: how money is created.
Why is like that? some history lessons are necessary, Youtube Money Masters, Money as Debt, good to begin :)
Important, can be different, yes! we, as citizens are "represented" by the State, which can and should create and print the money for the benefit of humanity, how it was with Lincoln for example.
