This is a quote from a U.S. President. Does this disturb anyone else?

Question

In 1913, Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Reserve
Act. A few years later he wrote: "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."

Answer 1

The Federal Reserve Act


by John DiNardo


On the night of November 22, 1910, a small group of surrogates of the most powerful bankers of the World met, under the veil of utmost secrecy, at specific little-used tracks of the railway station in Hoboken, New Jersey. Each of these secret banking agents had his own private railway car with new servants who would not recognize the identity of these men. The men traveled in silence to their secret destination, the elitist resort island off the coast of Georgia named Jekyll Island. Over the next few weeks these men would perpetrate, under the orders of their masters (men such as the Rothschild, Rockefeller and Morgan bankers) perhaps the most colossal and devastating fraud ever inflicted upon the American People.

This ultra-secret fraud is known as the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. The Federal Reserve Act responded to the Public's outcry for an end to concocted monetary crises that had robbed the entire American citizenry of much of their life's earnings. Ironically, their response was like a physician responding to a poisoned patient by injecting massive doses of poison into the patient (of course, no physician would ever commit just such a heinous crime, known as chemotherapy).

The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 concocted legislation, to be foisted upon the People's Congress of the United States, that empowered and commissioned this secret cabal of World-dominant bankers to PRINT UNITED STATES CURRENCY, a usurpation of our Constitution's explicit edict empowering ONLY THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT to print and coin currency. This world banking empire used their stolen power to print, out of thin air, paper currency which, in no way represents the gold and silver reserves that authentic currency is supposed to represent. Thus, the Rothschilds, the Morgans and the Rockefellers connived the power to pick the pocket of *EVERY* American, from the small child buying a loaf of bread to bring home, to the father of a household, working his life away to feed, clothe and shelter his family.

This monumental, yet secret fraud had swindled untold billions of REAL dollars from the hands of the American citizenry, from the moment of the birth of the Federal Reserve Act (sneaked through Congress on Christmas Eve, 1913) until the day when one courageous President of the United States, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, determined that he shall return the United States Treasury to its rightful task of printing UNITED STATES SILVER CERTIFICATES, notes that represent REAL money, silver held in reserve by the United States Government -- silver which the U.S. Government promises to pay, upon demand, to the bearer of that certificate.

This sterling deed of rescue of America's financial self-determination so angered the supremely powerful Rothschild, Rockefeller, Morgan, and other ensconced banking families, that they ordered the execution of this courageous President John Kennedy who dared serve the interests of his people, the People of the United States of America.

So virulent was the bankers' anger, that they ordained that he shall have his brains blown out in the most public of settings -- on the streets of a major American city, in an open and highly heralded motorcade, amidst throngs of his admiring people.

And, yes, these banker assassins wanted to communicate to the world, in some cloaked manner, that they, the world's banking emporers, were the true rulers over the American People, not this renegade president, whose job it was to take orders from his masters lurking behind the curtain of the world's stage. So these banker assassins DELIBERATELY left their calling card, not at the scene of their atrocity, but at the TIME of their atrocity: that time was their calling card: NOVEMBER 22nd, the anniversary of the conception of their evil Federal Reserve Act -- November 22nd, 1910, the night when their emissaries began their secret journey from that lonely railway station in Hoboken, New Jersey to Jekyll Island, Georgia, the womb which was to hatch a most ghastly, fearsome and ravenous monster, THE CREATURE FROM JEKYLL ISLAND, the Federal Reserve Act.

I have just discovered this calling card, and I wanted to tell everyone who might listen, that here is a substantial clue to the identity of the murderers of President John F. Kennedy. The secret societies comprising the world's ruling elite are deeply into numerology. With this understanding, it certainly seems too much of a random coincidence that the murder of President Kennedy occurred only a few months after he struck a blow at the Federal Reserve banking cabal by issuing United States currency notes, and, compounding the coincidence to a highly dubious degree is the symbolic fact that the Federal Reserve's day of conception is the same as the day of destruction of the president who attempted to destroy the Federal Reserve: November 22nd.

Buy or borrow the book from your librarian (through your library's inter-library loan network), THE CREATURE FROM JEKYLL ISLAND, by G. Edward Griffin, and learn the whole appalling story of the Federal Reserve System which, at this moment, is bringing you and all Americans to the imminent loss of most of your life's savings through a great financial collapse, just on the horizon of the looming Twenty-First Century.

Answer 2

It is a false quote. As another poster has stated, there is no evidence that President Wilson ever said the first two sentences. However, the rest of it is taken directly from Woodrow Wilson's book, "The New Freedom". The book is compilation of various campaign speeches he gave in 1912. Since the Federal Reserve Act wasn't signed until late 1913, how can those quotes be talking about the Federal Reserve? The answer is, they can't. Those quotes were him referring to the rise of monopolies in various industries. One of them was banking. The Federal Reserve Act eliminated the countries system of credit being controlled by private individuals. The Federal Reserve is INDEPENDENT of the government, but it is NOT private. Read the law.

Here is one of the actual quotes from 1912.
[BEGIN QUOTE]
We are at the parting of the ways. We have, not one or two or three, but many, established and formidable monopolies in the United States. We have, not one or two, but many, fields of endeavor into which it is difficult, if not impossible, for the independent man to enter. We have restricted credit, we have restricted opportunity, we have controlled development, and 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 the duress of small groups of dominant men.
[END QUOTE]

Here is the other quote.
[BEGIN QUOTE]
It is the mere truth to say that the financial resources of the country are not at the command of those who do not submit to the direction and domination of small groups of capitalists who wish to keep the economic development of the country under their own eye and guidance. The great monopoly in this country is the monopoly of big credits. So long as that exists, our old variety and freedom and individual energy of development are out of the question. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is privately concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men who, even if their action be honest and intended for the public interest, are necessarily concentrated upon the great undertakings in which their own money is involved and who necessarily, by very reason of their own limitations, chill and check and destroy genuine economic freedom.

Answer 3

It's only "partly" a quote from Wilson.

The first two lines - "I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. " - are complete fabrications. The rest of the quote is a mixture of out-of-context phrases from two different writings, combined to change the meaning of the quote.

While Wilson certainly believed that the countries credit system was unfairly concentrated in the hands of a small number of wealthy bankers, he never regretted signing the Federal Reserve Act.

The fact is that the nations credit was controlled by wealthy bankers, with NO government oversight, before the Fed was founded. After the Fed was founded it was still controlled by the bankers, but the government got to appoint the board of the Fed to oversee it.

Answer 4

Pesky, yes, I knew that, but it never ceases to amaze me. Our federal reserve is owned by a tiny, elite group of International bankers...this is not good, to say the least.

Kennedy also spoke of secret societies. It's here:

He was assassinated shortly after delivering this speech. No wonder Jackie was trying to get out of the car. These are some mean-spirited people.

I don't know what's up with the war pictures, but it's cool. Maybe this person is making a statement about war for profit.

Joe, one word: Kucinich.

Answer 5

Yep! It does. We are controlled by the men a women who crave money, fame and power. The rest of us can only exercise our option too vote for lesser of two (or three) evils. Vote wisely in "08. We're going to need a strong person in the White House, one who is not afraid to stick up for the American way.

Answer 6

Well, he's saying he made a mistake. But his intellectuality is really the most disturbing thing about him. Do we understand what went wrong? do we know what to do about it? The answer to both is no. And if you add on the huge, enormous blunder of conking out at the Treaty of Versailles, when Clemenceau proceeded unchecked to demolish post-war Germany, and chain it up for complete "extermination," so that it had no choice but to re-arm under a Hitler and "get back" at the whole world which stood by uncaring and unheeding------then you reduce the great Wilson to a cipher.
AAAAAgggggghhhhhh !!!! Bah, humbug !!!

Answer 7

it does me

Answer 8

He had no clue how right he was

Answer 9

It's both disturbing and so, so true.

Answer 10

really/???

wow, he knew way back then, what would become.....very telling!!
