That's all inclusive in the illegal taxing and the bit about the Federal Reserve Bank. The economy is money based: whoever has the money decides what the market is. Whoever controls the
flow of money controls the economy itself.
America's treasury was originally built on the gold standard, a common term that not many people know the meaning of. Paper money ($1, $5, etc.,) was originally a coupon that was redeemable for the declared value in gold at a bank. They only printed coupons in balance with how much gold was in the treasury. Therefore the gold standard was (readers digest) the value by which the economy was required to fluctuate.
Borrowing money at interest,
from a private bank that holds no ties to any government branch and is run by private shareholders that also have no government ties, only destroys the value of those paper bills, which are now literally just pieces of paper with ink on them. They are not backed by any tangible, physical object, meaning they have no translation value.
This transition set into place the power to control the economy. There is nothing to set the value of the paper against, so they can print as much or as little as they want.
