What if The Fed deliberately lost control to avoid flogging a dead horse any further and to usher in CBDCs and The Great Reset after an Even Greater Crash?!

Tirion's avatar

Yes, agreed. They don't really have any alternative, do they?

2nd Smartest Guy in the World's avatar

The alternative was always policy, since 1913.

I concur.

It was always the plan, they had to just wait on the electrons.

of course it was all by design ... this is an extermination plan - details:

Committee of 300, Society of Cincinatti, Club of Rome. Did the Fed ever 'have' control? Maybe its those other beyond-rich members who have lost control?

Rob Polans's avatar

No, it never did have control. The others could pool their money, but I really don't see that happening.

jacquelyn sauriol's avatar

i think they do actually pool their money, effectively, by being 'black rock' etc...but I apprec your comment, as trying to gauge their ability to cooperate in a traditional fashion is not something I had even considered....seems they just call it investments, and the financial advisors do the rest? happy cinqo de meow

If we see the end of the Fed during Ron Paul's lifetime it will be worth it. Unfortunately I think we will see Fedcoin.

The entire system is built on smoke and mirrors and soon everybody will know it.

"I care not what puppet is placed on the throne of England to rule the Empire, ... The man that controls Britain's money supply controls the British Empire. And I control the money supply." Nathan Rothschild https://twitter.com/KirbySommers/status/1567945974537936897

“Once a nation parts with the control of its currency and credit, it matters not who makes the nation’s laws. … Until the control of the issue of currency and credit is restored to government and recognized as its most sacred responsibility, all talk of the sovereignty of parliament and of democracy is idle and futile.” — Mackenzie King, Canadian Prime Minister 1935-1948.

"I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the civilized world no longer a Government by free opinion, no longer a Government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a Government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men." - Woodrow Wilson, after signing the Federal Reserve into existence

“Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.” ― Woodrow Wilson

“The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. …We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of.” – Edward Bernays – Propaganda

Fed has never been in control. It's an economic Mack truck with no brakes accelerating downhill and each increase in speed equates to more debt. Bottom of the hill is the great chaos, sorry, the great reset.

Rob Polans's avatar

The FED lost control Jan 21, 2021 when DC went bankrupt. Like good soldiers they continued printing money with no backing. Becerra and Stevens call it a hoax. So you are right 2SG it is by design! And this is a forerunner to the banks and any other financial crashes.

If you want the big picture

SEE PAGE 59 - THE PERFECTSTORM : The economy is a surplus energy equation, not a monetary one, and growth in output (and in the global population) since the Industrial Revolution has resulted from the harnessing of ever-greater quantities of energy. Butt he critical relationship between energy production and the energy cost of extraction is now deteriorating so rapidly that the economy as we have known it for more than two centuries is beginning to unravel https://ftalphaville-cdn.ft.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Perfect-Storm-LR.pdf

I am in no way an expert in financial areas, but the fact that "emergency" low interest rates introduced in 2008 never got raised implied to me that we never actually fixed anything.

2nd Smartest Guy in the World's avatar

the suppression and distortion of the price of money (interest rate) was critical in extracting real wealth and value from the system.

it was a manufactured "emergency" in order for the central banksters and their owners to loot that much harder.

Fast Eddy's avatar

But they did -- they offset the impact of the increasing price of oil (which reaching $147 per barrel). Lower interest rates make stuff more affordable.

OR, maybe, just maybe, the Federal Reserve, which sits underneath the Bank for International Settlements, along with its also privately incorporporated peers in numerous other nations, was originally designed and installed in 1913 precisely to bring us to this point.

CBDCs might be the goal. I mean how bad can it possibly get once cash is gone and all of our transactions must go thru and will be entirely controlled by the Central Banking Cartel, just a few families that own all of the entities that sit underneath the BIS.

Call me nuts.

Thanks 2nd. Like a train coming down the tracks. Next crash. BANG! CBDC stated as the ONLY solution.

People have been talking around the problem, not really getting to how the hell any of this is solved for decades. I've been around long enough to start down the same paths you are and see that truly being free isn't going to be sitting marginally adjacent to the game. Ruby Ridge or Waco or any number of similar stories should prove to me you won't just be left alone.

Even if you avoid the paramilitary govt, when thing break down what exactly do you think all those desperate people are going to do? Have you considered surviving this supposed epic collapse isn't going to be some perfectly distinct timeline like the movies. There's a reason TPTB are trying to herd people into cities and put them in cars that can be shut down remotely. But are you ever truly far enough and isolated?

Trying to avoid FedCoin isn't something you can do if you're not already 100% independent of everything. Everything. You won't get seeds, you won't get ammo, you won't get fuel and parts to fix farm equipment, solar systems, tires. Barter only works if the whole system doesn't need anything like the factories, the mines, the grid. If your lifestyle requires more than growing your own food to feed to your own livestock using the tools you have in your own shed. If you find yourself at a Shell or Big R or True Value even just once a week or once a month you're exposed and ultimately screwed. You're one broken bolt from missing a planting window and potential crop failure. One leaking roof from losing a harvest.

The only people who are ready for the unknown are people who have been doing this for generations and have the infrastructure and communities to not need anyone or anything else. The Amish, for example. Or all the generational family farmers, who have been systematically run out of business and their farmlands bought up.

Very few have the means and they are going to be the first in the cross hairs for govt and the Walking Dead. During the post-2008 bubble reinflation we finally decided to pivot, sold our small farm, liquidated and decided freedom is a state of mind and not a chunk of dirt. We're either all in this together, which means actually helping each other to solve it, or we're small bands of fighting to survive.

It seems that there's no real desire to be a regional, national or global community. I appreciate this blog but the arrogance is palpable. People are dumb, people who can't see deserve their fate. Well, yeah, but the huddled masses are the ones still working and dying making the world go around. The 8 billion people on this rock are collectively Atlas and when enough shrug or are allowed to die the engine stops.

All I've seen post Dr. Paul's R3volution is more and more corruption in the prepper circles of people preying on the unsuspecting with promises of guns, gold and gardens. It's just as bad as any mainstream corporate shill. It's all about finding naive suckers and taking their money. It's a race to get yours before the music stops.

It's seems better floating untethered, almost gypsies in a way, where being in a specific location or relying on accessing specific accounts or currencies isn't important. Which I think enough people were doing and thus the need to put a stop to this with a fake disease and public quarantine, lockdown. Covid-19 made making getting around very difficult and had all the earmarks that soviet-style checkpoints were now in play globally. It's eased but I think the framework has been put firmly in place.

To survive in this future unless you're part of the inner circle you're going to have to disconnect and become an noncitizen. No papers, leaving no traces, migrate from here to there to somewhere else without leaving a wake of foot steps. Legally and practically vanish. Live unnoticed in plain sight.

Your post presumes 2 extremes 1)total societal & economic collapse, 2)for [practically] indefinite duration. That'd obviously make all prepping pointless and you'd be right.

But many of us have lived through collapses in fairly hard but not total circumstances eg 3rd world revolutions, hyperinflation etc. Yes, in such cases it does make sense to have land and food production. The money issue is really out of your hands for the most part, but if you hold a stable currency (the us dollar typically), it far improves your chances of either emigration or buying up more assets. It's never all or none. A few elites usually have it all and can employ some, a few unlucky ones die or end up on the street, but most are on a gradual continuum of misery.

The main struggles are usually paying for healthcare, education, transport & housing. The other big struggle is increase ín demoralization, depression, alcohol use, family discord, violent crime, suicide etc. In all these cases being financially prepped makes all the practical difference.

I suppose what's coming may be unprecedented, but what if it's as prophesied ie 7 years of the antichrist reign? Just as in Genesis Joseph used his dream to prep for 7 years of famine and saved countless lives in Egypt, can we not use Substack info to prep for 7 years of chaos by avoiding psyops like depopulation, currency collapse and mark of the beast, and focusing on rebuilding and preaching the soul saving Gospel?

Rob Polans's avatar

Prepping is never pointless. It may seem silly to some, but have they faced living with just the clothes on your back for weeks, whatever food you can find, water you can distill, etc.? I lived that way for over a year. Nothing pretty, but I survived.
