Something big happened to this country in the 1930s, though it is
rarely covered in standard so-called history. Your grandfather
had to turn in $20 of gold to Uncle Sam and got back $20 of paper
currency. Decades later, you were allowed to buy back that gold,
but at a cost of about $450 in paper currency. So what happened
between the $20 your grandfather turned in and the $450 you paid
to get it back? $450 minus $20 equals $430. Where did that $430
go? It went *somewhere*. Who got it? Somebody did.

i havent seen the original.....but i would like to.

the graphics are really excellent in this one

maybe lil ole me should right a letter to my congressman or to my president....and ask them my question.

i got such great faith in my government ya know

1933: President Roosevelt outlawed private ownership of all gold bullion and all gold coins with the exception of rare coins.

Either turn in your gold and be paid the official price for it of, $20-66 an ounce, or you will be liable for a $10,000 fine and a ten year prison sentence. This confiscation order was so unpopular, it's author has never been discovered.
No Congressman ever claimed having written it, President Roosevelt stated he had not written it, nor had he even read it. Roosevelt's Secretary of the Treasury, William H. Woodin, claimed he'd never read it either, but that it was, he stated, "What the experts wanted."

1935: All the gold held by American citizens had finally been turned in. Without explanation the official price of gold was then raised to $35 per ounce. The only catch was that only foreigners could sell their gold at the new higher price.
Where is the world price of gold set? Since 1919, in the same room of private bank N. M. Rothschild & Sons in London, at 11:00 a.m., on a daily basis. (This stopped in 2004)

Therefore Warburg and his banking friends who put their money into gold at $20-66 before the stock market crash and shipped it to London, could now ship it back and sell it to the United States Government for the new higher price. The money changers have a golden rule,

"He who has the gold, makes the rules."
President Roosevelt orders the building of a new gold bullion depository to hold the vast amount of gold the United States government had illegally confiscated. That depository was Fort Knox.

1953 President Eisenhower orders the last audit of Fort Knox ever held.
Fort Knox is found to contain over 700 million ounces of gold, 70% of all the gold in the world. Although Federal Law requires an annual physical audit of Fort Knox's gold.

1971: All the pure gold had been secretly moved from Fort Knox, sold to international money changers for the $35 per ounce price, and is believed to now be kept in London. This is also when President Nixon repeals Roosevelt's Gold Reserve Act of 1934, allowing Americans to once again buy gold. As a result of this gold prices began to soar. In fact,
9 years later, in 1980, gold sold for $880 per ounce, a staggering 25 times what the gold in Fort Knox was sold to the international bankers for…

1974: A New York periodical publishes an article claiming that the Rockefeller family were manipulating the Federal Reserve for the purpose of selling off Fort Knox gold at bargain basement prices to anonymous European speculators.

The US government still did not undertake an audit of the gold in Fort Knox to quell this speculation.

1981: When President Ronald Reagan took office, his conservative friends suggested to him that he return to a gold standard. President Reagan appointed a group of men called the, "Gold Commission," to undertake a feasibility study. 1982 President Reagan's, "Gold Commission," reports back to Congress "The U. S. Treasury owned no gold at all. All the gold that was left in Fort Knox was now owned by the Federal Reserve, a group of private bankers, as collateral against the National Debt."
