UFOs Captured On Local News In Milwaukee?

If you've ever seen a morning newscast, you know how when they cut to commercial or come back from a break they show a live shot of the city. Well the Fox affiliate in Milwaukee did just that, but they captured something more than just the skyline - strange lights.

The confused anchors wondered out loud what they were looking at and there still is no official answer. Some people think it was fireworks, others meteors and still others believe it was something not from this planet.

The leading explanation for skeptics though is that it was a flock of seagulls and a lag in the video feed caused trails of light.

"Pay The F*ck Up": Hackers Threaten To Dump Secret 9/11 Attack Files If Bitcoin Ransom Not Met

"…we're going to bury you with this."

A hacking collective known as The Dark Overlord announced on New Year's Eve that it had broken into the computer systems of a law firm and obtained files related to the September 11 attacks - threatening to publicly release a large cache of internal files unless a hefty ransom is paid, according to Motherboard.

Found a MOTHER LOAD…Digg on this anons..

The Network of Global Corporate Control

The structure of the control network of transnational corporations affects global market competition and financial stability. So far, only small national samples were studied and there was no appropriate methodology to assess control globally. We present the first investigation of the architecture of the international ownership network, along with the computation of the control held by each global player. We find that transnational corporations form a giant bow-tie structure and that a large portion of control flows to a small tightly-knit core of financial institutions. This core can be seen as an economic “super-entity” that raises new important issues both for researchers and policy makers.

It is NOT the United States’ Dollar. It is the Federal Reserve’s Dollar. The Private Bank known as the FED is responsible for repayment of the Dollar Debt Notes.

The US only borrowed notes from the Fed. The US took loans from A Private Bank.

What did they pledge as collateral?

>>4563877

A US Dollar is a Coin NOT a Promissory Bill or Debt Note!

The Coinage Act of 1792 created the United States dollar as the country's standard unit of money.

This act established the silver dollar as the unit of money in the United States, declared it to be lawful tender.

>>4563881

>>4563877

The Coinage Act of 1792 established:

$10 Eagle as 247.5 grains of Gold.

$5 Half-Eagle as 123.75 grains of Gold

$2.50 Qtr Eagle as 61.875 grains of Gold

The US Dollar as 371.25 grains of Silver

Half Dollar as 185.625 grains of Silver

And so on…

https://constitution.org/uslaw/coinage1792.txt …

>>4563877

>>4563881

>>4563891

The Legal Tender Act of 1862 authorized the creation of paper money not redeemable in gold or silver.

These were called “greenbacks”.

n Hepburn v. Griswold (1870), the Court ruled by a four-to-three majority that Congress lacked the power to make the notes legal tender.

In Knox v. Lee and Parker v. Davis (1871), the Court reversed its Hepburn v. Griswold decision by a five-to-four majority, asserting that the Legal Tender Act of 1862 represented a justifiable use of federal power at a time of national emergency.

The Coinage Act of 1834 raised the silver-to-gold weight ratio from its 1792 level of 15:1 to 16:1.

The silver content of the silver dollar was left unchanged at 371.25 grains and the fine content of gold coins was reduced from 24.75 grains to 23.2 grains.

The Coinage Act of 1853 lowered the silver content of the half dime, dime, quarter dollar, and half dollar by 7%.

It authorized the U.S. Mint to purchase bullion for new coins intending to stabilize the country's silver shortage by increasing the circulation of small coinage.

The Coinage Act of 1873 ended the right Miners & Farmers to have their silver bullion struck into legal tender coins.

Silver mining was on the rise and bankers (who owned most of the gold) feared the gold standard would end and pressured politicians for 3 years to pass the act.

FREE SILVER MOVEMENT

In an attempt to return silver to a monetary metal, Congress passed the The Bland–Allison Act of 1878.

It required the Treasury to buy a certain amount of silver and put it into circulation as silver dollars.

The bill was vetoed but Congress overrode it.

==Free silver became increasingly associated with populism, unions, and the fight of ordinary Americans against the bankers, railroad monopolists, and the robber barons and was referred to as the "People's Money"=

Gold was portrayed as the money of "exploitation" and "oppression".

The Panic of 1893 was a serious economic depression in the US that began in 1893 and ended in 1897.

A combination of overextended Railroads, bankruptcy of National Cordage and wheat crop failures, concerned European investors who started a Gold Run on the US Treasury.

The presidential election of 1896 was between Silver advocate William Jennings Bryan & Gold Standard supporter William McKinley.

According to Milton Friedman, the populist rhetoric of Bryan made sense because a gold standard in a world with a gold shortage is bad monetary policy

The Gold Standard Act (1900) established gold as the only standard for redeeming paper money, ending Silver as a monetary metal.

The act established the US Dollar as 23.22 grains of Gold.

The US Dollar was previously set as 371.25 grains of Silver.

Those who own gold, want a gold standard.

Those who own silver, want a silver standard.

Metal prices will vary based on supply and demand fluctuations. Modern economies have great difficulty with these kinds of swings.

The current ratio of gold to silver prices is 83 to 1.

The Panic of 1907

Also known as the 1907 Bankers' Panic or Knickerbocker Crisis, was a United States financial crisis that took place over a three-week period starting in mid-October, when the New York Stock Exchange fell almost 50% from its peak the previous year.

The Panic of 1907 was triggered by the failed attempt to corner the market on stock of the United Copper Company.

Banks that had lent money to the scheme suffered runs that later spread, leading to the downfall of the Knickerbocker Trust Company, NYC’s 3rd largest trust.

The Panic of 1907 extended across the nation as vast numbers of people withdrew deposits from their regional banks.

Thats when financier J. P. Morganpledged large sums of his own money, and convinced other New York bankers to do the same, to shore up the banking system.

ollapse was imminent due to heavy borrowing of a large brokerage firm that used the stock of Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company as collateral.

Until an emergency takeover of TC&I by Morgan's U.S. Steel Corporation; a move approved by anti-monopolist president Roosevelt.

After the Panic of 1907 was averted by essentially a private takeover by JP Morgan and friends, Senator Nelson W. Aldrich, father-in-law of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., established and chaired a commission to investigate the crisis and propose future solutions to avoid disasters.

The Aldrich–Vreeland Act (1908) established the National Monetary Commission to investigate and propose legislation to regulate banking.

Senator Nelson Aldrich, te chairman of the National Monetary Commission, went to Europe for 2 years to study banking systems.

Aldrich and A. P. Andrew (Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Department) convened a secret conference with a number of the nation's leading financiers at the Jekyll Island Club, off the coast of Georgia, to discuss monetary policy and the banking system in November 1910.

The final report of the National Monetary Commission was published in 1911.

On Dec. 23rd 1913, while 1/3 of Congress was on Christmas break, they passed the Federal Reserve Act.

President Woodrow Wilson signed the legislation the same day, creating the Federal Reserve System.

Underwood Tariff Act of 1913, reduced average rates of imported goods from 40 percent to 25 percent and greatly enlarged the list of items that could be imported tax free.

This reduced the Government’s overall income substantially. It had to be sustained by other means.

The Sixteenth Amendment (1913)

It direct contrast to the original Constitution, Congress removed the rule that forbid applying taxes directly onto the people.

Until 1913, customs duties (tariffs) and excise taxes were the primary sources of federal revenue.

Year 1913

Now that:

Import Taxes were drastically reduced through the Underwood Traiif Act (1913).

A Federal Income Tax was levied directly on the people via The Sixteenth Amendment (1913).

A Federal Reserve Act approved (1913).

What else did Woodrow Wilson want?

==Owen-Glass Federal Reserve Act (1913)

All major European powers had developed centralized controls over their banking systems, but the U.S. remained alone in failing to do so.

Full centralization of banking was now possible.

=Federal Reserve Act==

Aldrich championed for a Single Central Bank, but instead Congress formed 12 regional Reserve Banks that were to act as a group of central banks for all national banks.

The Banks would not be federal bodies, but private ones owned by the member banks..

Extending Credit

The newly formed Federal Reserve System created Federal Reserve Notes backed by gold at 40% the amount of the notes.

This essentially created a Fractional Gold Standard allowing Bank Credit and Loans to Businesses and Consumers to be greatly extended.

FED Rates

The greatest power given to the Federal Reserve System was the ability to control the interest rate charged when lending to banks.

Changes to the Discount Rate allows the FED to slow down the economic activity or stimulate the economic activity in the United States..

FED Operations Begin (1915)

Wilson named Paul Warburg and other prominent experts to direct the new system.

Many regarded him as the chief driving force behind the establishment of America's central bank.

The Senate had concerns with his ties to Wall Street and Money Trusts.

WWI

European Nations spent large sums during the war and had to suspend their Gold Standard.

Gold was sent to the US to pay for supplies. The newly created Federal Reserve sold bonds to “sterilize” the effects of the gold imports which would have raised the US money supply.

Expanding Credit

From 1915, when the Federal Reserve began operations, until the Stock Market crashed of 1929, the US Money Supply tripled!

This was due to the Fractional Reserve Policy created by the Federal Reserve Act (1913)

This expanded bank credit and increased loans.

Black Tuesday

The rapid expanding of credit caused by Fractional Lending Of the FED allowed borrowers to spend like never before.

During the 1920s, the U.S. stock market underwent rapid expansion, reaching its peak in August 1929, after a period of wild speculation.

Fractional Lending in the Stock Market

A new method for buying stocks, called Margin, allowed investors to buy huge amounts of stocks with only 10 percent or 20 percent down.

When stock prices fell, the brokers called in the loans.

Many lost their entire life savings!

What caused the Crash of 1929?

“The Federal Reserve is a tool to consolidate and control wealth.”

Between 1923 and 1929, the Federal Reserve expanded the money supply by 62%.

This new money was used to bid the stock market up to dizzying heights with tales of instant riches.

The Pefect Storm (1929)

Huge increases in money supply because of the FED’s Fractional Reserve Lending.

Lack of Rising Interest Rates to counter the rapid Economic Expansion.

Over-Priced Stocks due to massive buying made possible by Margin Lending.

After the Stock Market Crash of 1929, many who bought on Margin, lost their entire life savings.

People rushed to withdraw their deposits from the banks, but because of the FED’s Fractional Reserve Lending, many banks lacked the funds and 1/3 of US banks were forced to close.

The Great Depression was a severe worldwide economic event that took place during the 1930s.

It started in 1929 after major US bank foreclosures caused by the Stock Market Crash of 1929.

It was the longest, deepest, and most widespread depression of the 20th century.

World Trade (1930s)

The decline in the U.S. economy was the factor that pulled down most other countries at first; then, internal weaknesses or strengths in each country made conditions worse.

By 1933, the economic decline had pushed world trade to 1/3 of its previous level.

Lack of FED Action

By not lowering interest rates, not increasing the monetary base and not injecting liquidity into the banking system, the Federal Reserve passively watched the crisis grow.

The Great Depression could of been avoided if the FED had taken aggressive action.

Declining Investment 1930s

The Federal Reserve allowed large public bank failures which produced panic and widespread runs on local banks.

With significantly less money, businesses could not get new loans or get their old loans renewed, private investment dropped by 80%.

Dold Standard 1930s

One reason why the Federal Reserve did not limit the decline of the money supply was the Gold Standard.

The amount of credit the Federal Reserve could issue was limited by the Federal Reserve Act, which required 40% gold backing of Federal Reserve Notes.

FED Maxed Out

By the late 1920s, the Federal Reserve had almost hit the limit of allowable credit that could be backed by the gold in its possession.

For every Reserve Note issued, the Federal Reserve had to have 40% of it’s value in Gold in it’s vaults.

The FED needed Gold!

The Gold Standard

During the bank panics a portion of Federal Reserve Notes were redeemed for Federal Reserve gold.

Since the Federal Reserve had hit its limit on allowable credit, any reduction in Gold in its vaults had to be accompanied by a greater reduction in credit.

No More Dollars!

Although the Federal Reserve Fractional Lending had caused the Great Depression, they felt that extending it further was only way to out of decline.

But the FED had already exceeded the allowable number of Dollars.

They argued the link to Gold had to go!

Gold Confiscation 1933

In an effort to “Expand Federal Reserve credit”, Roosevelt signed Executive Order 6102.

The order “forbade the Hoarding of gold coin, bullion, and gold certificates within the United States, under penalty of $10,000 and/or up to 5-10 years imprisonment”.

Gold Reserve Act (1934)

Congress nationalized all Gold and ordered the Banks to turn it over to the U.S. Treasury.

The act also authorized the president to revalue the gold from $20.67 to $35, devaluing the dollar by over 40%.

This allowed more Reserve Notes to be created.

Economic Stabilization Fund

The Gold Reserve Act also created the ESF using $2 billion of the $2.8 billion paper profit the government realized from raising the price of gold to $35 an ounce from $20.67.

ESF deals in gold & foreign exchange to stabilize the value of the dollar.

Banking Act of 1933

Created a (FDIC) federal system of bank deposit insurance championed by Representative Steagall'''

Prohibits “Savings & Loans” banks from making “speculative investments” championed by Senator Glass

Often called the Glass-Steagall Act-Repealed in 1999..

Banking Act of 1935

The Act concentrated the power of the Federal Reserve System from 12 Regional Banks to a Single Federal Reserve Board and also set the term of the Chairman to 14 years.

This greatly changed how the FED operated and gave it enormous control over the economy

Federal Open Market Committee

Created by the Banking Act of 1935, The FOMC controls how and when Reserve Banks participate in open market operations.

The Federal Reserve committee makes key decisions about interest rates and the growth of the United States money supply.

Economic Recovery 1933-1937

Gold Confiscation and the Gold Reserve Act along with more international gold inflows (due to the revalued Gold price), increased the US money supply, aided the recovery of the United States economy, and slowed the poor management of money by the FED.

1937 Downturn

Roosevelt’s effort to curb government spending and balance the budget, stifled the recovery in 1937.

Roosevelt blamed big business and sought to break up monopolies.

In 1938, Roosevelt launched a $5 billion spending program to increase mass purchasing power.

1937 FED Actions

Roosevelt was blamed for the 1937 Recession when he curbed Government Spending and Balanced the Federal Budget, but Economist felt it was the FED’s Contraction of the Money Supply that tanked Roosevelt’s effort to be fiscallly responsible.

Shaking off the Great Depression (1933-1939)

The US economy continued to grow throughout the 1930s thanks to FDRs New Deal relief programs, but unemployment was still over 12%.

Until The War Economy began!

War broke out in Europe (1939)

With war ramping up in Europe, the US began supplying its allies. This kickstarted the receding US economy.

In 1940, US unemployment was still high, but was falling slowly. The economy grew 8% that year and FDR raised the top income tax to 81%.

War is good for the economy, if you’re not in it!

In the year 1941, the US economy grew 17.7% and unemployment plummeted to 9.9%.

The US was on track for a very prosperous decade and a fast recovering economy,

Then war came to us…

Pearl Harbor (1941)

On December 7th, 1941 Japanese aircraft (353) attacked the US military base in Pearl Harbor Hawaii.

2,335 were killed & 4 of 8 battleships were destroyed.

On Dec. 8th, the US declared war on Japan. On Dec. 11th, Germany and Italy declared war on the US.

War Is Expensive!

Before joining World War II US gov. spending in 1941 was 30% of GDP, $408 billion.

In 1944, the peak of World War II, government spending had risen to over $1.6 trillion about 79% of the GDP.

During this 3 year period, total gov. debt rose to 120% of GDP!

Bretton Woods 1944

Preparing to rebuild the international economic system, while WW II was still raging, 730 delegates from all 44 Allied nations gathered at the Mount Washington Hotel in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, US for the United Nations Monetary and Financial Conference.

The US vs. Britain

44 nations attended the conference, but the two major plans were from the United States and Britain.

The chief international economist at the U.S. Treasury, Harry Dexter White, competed with the plan drafted by John Maynard Keynes for the British Treasury.

International Monetary Fund

The big question was the institution that would emerge as the IMF and the issue of future access to international liquidity.

Should it be a World Central Bank able to create new reserves at will, or a more limited borrowing mechanism?

US Plan wins Bretton Woods

Because of the overwhelming economic and military power of the US, the participants at Bretton Woods largely agreed on the US plan.

A system of subscriptions and quotas embedded in the IMF, instead of a World Central Bank capable of creating money.

The IMF is provided with a fund composed of contributions from member countries in gold and their own currencies.

When joining the IMF, members pay 25% in gold and 75% in their own currency.

The original quotas were to total $8.8 billion.

IMF Leadership

Never before had international monetary cooperation been attempted on a permanent institutional basis.

Since the US was contributing the most, U.S. leadership was the key.

The US held 1/3 of all IMF quotas, enough to veto all changes to the IMF Charter.

IMF and the US Treasury

The IMF was based in Washington DC and staffed mainly by US economists

It regularly exchanged personnel with the US Treasury

When the IMF began in 1946, President Truman named Treasury Secretary & Suspected Communist White as its 1st Executive Director

US Trade Deficit

Even though all nations wanted to buy superior US products, dollars had to leave the US for international use as a reserve currency.

The US would have to reverse global trade and create a trade deficit to increase the outflow of US reserves to other nations.

IMF Failure

Because of the lack of exports from European countries, only the US contribution of $570 million was actually available for lending from the IMF.

By 1947 the IMF admitted it was NOT equipped to deal with the international monetary system's economic problems.

European Recovery

With the IMF unable to help Europe and a lack of international dollars to be used as reserve currency, the US had to set up a Recovery Program to provide large-scale financial and economic aid for rebuilding Europe, using grants and direct loans.

Marshall Plan 1947

Officially, The Plan was an American initiative to aid Western Europe, to rebuild economies after the end of World War II.

But The real US goal was to expand the use of the dollar and influence of the US gov. all while preventing the spread of Communism.

The FED vs US Treasury

During WWII the FED agreed to keep interest rates at 0.375% to help finance the war effort.

After the war, industrial production fell and inflation was rising. The FED wanted to raise rates.

The Treasury did not agree & by 1948 the US was in recession.

1951 Accord

The FED wanted to raise rates but Truman fought it and even replaced the FED director twice in 3 years.

In 1951 the US entered the Korean War and inflation grew 21%. The FED and Truman came to a compromise.

The 1951 Accord restored some independence to the Fed.

Bank Holding Company Act of 1956

The law curbed bank influence by prohibiting a holding company from engaging in non-banking activities or acquiring voting securities of companies that are not banks. It also restricted multi-state bank ownership.

It was later repealed in 1999.
