In Fed We Trust: Wrong On Every Level
Only those ignorant of the Fed as destroyer would believe such a thing
The 2008-2009 financial “panic,” is the backdrop for the book, In Fed We Trust.
In ways that the public and politicians had never before appreciated, that weekend, and the months that followed, would reveal that the Federal Reserve had become a fourth branch of government…

Even the title is blasphemy. And, those of the civil religion actually believe this bullshit.
Civil religion, also referred to as a civic religion, is the implicit religious values of a nation, as expressed through public rituals, symbols (such as the national flag), and ceremonies on sacred days and at sacred places (such as monuments, battlefields, or national cemeteries). It is distinct from churches, although church officials and ceremonies are sometimes incorporated into the practice of civil religion.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau coined the term in chapter 8, book 4 of The Social Contract (1762), to describe what he regarded as the moral and spiritual foundation essential for any modern society. For Rousseau, civil religion was intended simply as a form of social cement, helping to unify the state by providing it with sacred authority.
There is nothing “sacred” about the state. The civil religion is what brings some to build temples of worship to former presidents, as exemplified by the Lincoln Memorial.
Inflation is created by the Fed. Period. Then, as now. The real estate bubble leading to the 2008-2009 collapse was blown up by the Fed. Then, after creating the problem, the Fed is praised for rescuing the People, from the actions of the Fed itself (though of course they don’t say that).
You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it's an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.
Unfortunately my friends, this is how government works; create crises, like the Covid 19 virus, then use the excuse created to expand the government’s reach and power. In the case of the 2008-2009 crisis, it led to the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers, which proved a test case for laws that had been put in place to allow for what is now referred to as a “bail-in.”
A bail-in provides relief to a financial institution on the brink of failure by requiring the cancellation of debts owed to creditors and depositors. A bail-in is the opposite of a bailout, which involves the rescue of a financial institution by external parties, typically governments, using taxpayers’ money for funding.
Depositor, that’s you. That’s your money in the bank. Or was. In other words, what’s yours…isn’t. This is how, in the end, which is in our future, the banks will take everything.
Let me issue and control a nation's money and I care not who writes the laws.

Further to that, I recommend that you watch a video by David Webb, The Great Taking:
Then, I found an interview of Webb to also be very informative:
As to the creation of the Fed itself, again a “solution” to a crisis manufactured by the powers that be, you need go no further than The Creature From Jekyll Island. And to the insidious effects of inflation:
Inflation; Anything but Benign
Inflation is a rise in prices, which can be translated as the decline of purchasing power over time. The rate at which purchasing power drops can be reflected in the average price increase of a basket of selected goods and services over some period of time. The rise in prices, which is often expressed as a percentage, means that
Yes, a must watch for all if you want to make it.
Read the book that John highlighted as well.
The book helps you understand the federal reserve.
