MORAL ARMOR'S Economic Warning for Americans
Copyright 2005 Ronald E Springer
For years we’ve suffered under recession, prompting us to
ask, When will it end? My answer is, “It’s only the
beginning.”
Historically, recessions are the result of high interest
rates, pushed up as the result of loose money policies.
Recovery comes when citizens begin to spend more wisely,
save money and pay off their debts, but not this time.
Never before have credit policies been so loose for so
long, and there has been no decrease in consumer debt. It’s
still on the rise, but Americans are NOT fundamentally to
blame; immoral monetary policy is.
Banks used to consider a safe loan applicant to have a 36%
or less Debt to Income Ratio (debt divided by gross
income). This percentage is a time-proven figure indicating
the financial health of an individual. Now, during the
worst economy in twenty years and with no signs of
recovery, our banks gladly loan to applicants with a 56%
Debt to Income. What has changed? Are banks suddenly more
generous? I don’t think so. One good question to ask is,
Why are banks willing to accept the additional risk? But
the real question to ask is, Where is this money coming
from?
Not one in a thousand Americans knows the true nature of
our banking system, so they have no idea that what happened
in 1929 is about to happen again. Nor do they know that it
was done deliberately then, and is being done deliberately
now.
We have in this country one of the most corrupt
institutions known to Man, and I refer to the Federal
Reserve. Since it’s inception in 1913, every dollar created
has interest being paid on it as if it were borrowed. This
debt cannot be extinguished without destroying the currency
itself, and has spawned a nightmare of debt that presently
amounts to over $360 Billion in interest paid per year,
accounting for half the personal income tax of the nation.
Due to this, America is forced to create $7 Billion daily
to cover the $1 Billion it pays in interest daily due to
the Federal Reserve System. This is where the public comes
in.
Federal Reserve bankers have to find a way to spend
$6 Billion every day while masking the inflation it causes.
Throughout the nineties it was done through real estate and
the stock market. Now it is almost exclusively being put
into real estate. How on Earth could so many mortgage
companies be offering interest only, no money down,
multi-hundred thousand or million dollar loans with high
applicant debt ratios?
Here is a hypothetical example of what.s going to happen:
Your mortgage banker tells you that with a 56% debt ratio,
you can afford a $300,000 home, no money down. You secure
the loan at 4%, costing $1432 per month. A few years later,
you.re thrown out of work for three months. Back payments
amount to $4296 plus late fees, legal fees, etc., and
another $5k on cars, credit cards and everything else.
Unable to catch up, you.ll try to refinance, but interest
rates have moved up to 7%. A $310,000 loan now costs $2062
per month.more than you can afford, but banks will have
tightened lending policies back to 36% and you no longer
qualify for the home you own anyway. Accounting for all
other debt, you now qualify for a shocking $360 per month.
You are trapped, and the new bankruptcy laws they pushed
for will never let you walk away.
You owned this home in a perfect numbers scenario, but any
complications—unemployment, salary reduction, interest rate
increase, debt ratio change, bruised credit rating,
depressed home values--and you’re cooked. One mishap and
every financial measure works against you. Your financial
angel has suddenly become your greatest enemy. Welcome to
the Federal Reserve System and their freshly engineered
worldwide depression.
If you were to approach the housing market fresh, you would
find that you only qualify for a $55k house now, along with
the market of buyers you were hoping to unload your
balloon-house on. The bank forecloses, auctions it off and
you’re personally responsible for the difference, which
could be massive. Bankruptcy is right around the corner,
and deplorably, you are the only one who will be held
accountable. You will then be a debt slave as the Federal
Reserve intends, and game over.
My advice is to get as financially stable as you can.
Mathematically, our situation is much worse than that of
the Great Depression. No matter how generous these bankers
appear, pare down monthly outlays to 36% D/I or less. Set
aside three to six months of mortgage payments in case you
become unemployed. Make sure you can ride out the storm.
We are coming to a point in American society to where it’s
either them or us, and mass awareness is the key to our
survival. Most believe the Federal Reserve is a part of the
government, but it’s just a name. The Fed is a private
corporation set up for private gain, with a dark history of
stock market crashes, financial panics, political
manipulation and ultimately, mass poverty and hunger riots.
Our struggle is not new: currency control has switched from
public to private hands EIGHT times since our country’s
inception, and needs to be reclaimed by the people, one
last time.
Don’t think you can play helpless and expect our political
leaders to protect you from financial calamity; they never
have. You must become Morally Armed on your own. Don’t be
coaxed into believing the system is optimized for the good
of all. The Federal Reserve System is not an equitable
institution, and it was never intended to be. They believe
if they have us strung out on debt, we are no threat to
them. Let us prove otherwise.
Currency reform is the most important issue facing
Americans today. How it plays out will determine whether
you and your children eat or not, whether you have a place
to live or even a future to look forward to. The major
media will ridicule anyone speaking against the Fed, so to
validate history’s greatest moral dilemma for yourself,
just google “Jackson bank veto.”
America must abolish the Federal Reserve System to regain
control over the economy and our government. For a concise
history of world monetary policy and how it shapes world
events, see Moral Armor. Then share this knowledge with
your friends. Email this article to everyone in your
address book and stay tuned for further developments. We’ll
change the system together and bring a brighter dawn to
Mankind.
