Reviewing the past 100 years, do you become concerned about our well being, our general welfare as a society? Do you wonder how we got to where we are? Are you bewildered by the recent credit crisis in the financial markets, and wonder how and why it happened? Are you informed about the trade deficit and concerned about its impact on the value of the US dollar and on society? Are you being taxed to the point that you have less spending money, which makes you mad? Is health care becoming too complicated to afford and understand? Are you finding it harder just to get by?

In Plucking The Eagle, the author has chosen these four areas of our society where the "Globalists" are destroying our way of life by steering our country to socialism. He defines "Globalists" as an international group of unelected men who secretly scheme to create "chaos" at various times in our history, so as to make governmental dependency more palatable to the masses.

Read how the "Globalists" use the Federal Reserve Bank, trade policy, taxes, and health care to attain their socialistic goals. Are we half-way to socialism? Will the "Globalists" win? James Conroy has the answers.

Introduction

Reading the newspaper or listening to the news about the economy, do you ever wonder about how and why the living and working environment in the United States has eroded from what it used to be; a vibrant exciting prosperous society to what it is today, a downtrodden society with diminishing promise? Concerning the economy, does the thought that the Federal Reserve should not let the recent financial meltdown of the economy from ever happening ever cross your mind? Did you ever wonder how the federal debt appeared, why is it getting worse? Why did taxation happen, why do we have all these forms of taxes and why do they keep going up? Do you ever wonder about the trade barriers, treaties, pacts, deficits and how it affects your wages, jobs strength of the dollar and general welfare? Do you wonder why Health Care costs so much and think of ways the health care industry can cut costs…if only the politicians listened to me you think!! After reading the exasperating news about the Federal Reserve’s policies, rate increases, taxes, trade deficits and affordable health care, do you often find yourself saying it “used to be better back in the old days?” Are we, the United States, becoming a “Nanny” state, where more burden is being placed on workers in the form of taxes to care for the increasing number of people dependent on the government for subsistence? If you do, read this book about the how we got to where we are! This book will provide an historical perspective as to the origination of these government run operations and how their true intent is being abused to foster Socialism in America!

Preamble

Socialism- any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and the distribution of goods.

If one were to socialize the world, how would one go about it? Would one do it alone? Impossible! One would need a group. When a group becomes established, what means and actions does this group use to accomplish its socialistic goals? Where does this group get its origin and how does it perpetuate itself? How does one get invited into this group? Once invited in, how does one expand this group to where it can actually change the world? How would a group of individuals together form some sort of means to socialize the world; to create a world void of individual nations? How would they create a world where the masses are subjected to the machinations of the few? How would this group gain control of all nations? How would this group eliminate boundaries, dismantle sovereign nations, control the economies, subjugate the citizens to their wishes and forge many small independent nations into a mass of hemispheric entities? How would this group take this world made up of 250 nations, and through their diabolical and disastrous international economic schemes and political policies, reshape the sovereignty of nations into a socialistic world where many will be ruled by the few?

Many people have seen this happening for a hundred or so years. Most have not. It is my intention to show how this sinister group is socializing the world where we as private citizens, who make our own decisions, manage our own money, elect our own officials to run our government, are losing control to the point of us becoming subjects of the imperial few. I intend to illustrate how these individuals have banded together into a group I will refer to as “Globalists” who have used their influence in their respective careers, be it politics, business, or industry and have manipulated events in their favor to achieve their ultimate goal of one world socialism. Part of their objective is to accumulate for themselves into the hands of the few, the world’s wealth and natural resources to perpetuate their goals and to achieve their desired result; a one world socialistic government.

Socialism is defined by Webster as: “Any and various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods.” If you don’t think this is happening today and has been happening for years, in what beach is your head buried? Try to buy a car, or a house, pay your taxes, wonder about the trade and federal deficits, the actions of the Federal Reserve, its effect on the dollar, economy and its’ impact on workers, and figure out the right health care for your family without some sort of government intervention. With diminishing disposable income to buy homes, cars, and health care, and increasing taxes, how has the government controlled your financial means through misleading economic theories? Why has government spending required the need to increase tax rates on existing taxes, and to originate new taxes on new items?

Of the many methods this group is applying to socialize this country and the world, the four on which I want to concentrate are the Federal Reserve, Trade, Taxes, and Health Care. Why? For two reasons: Because these four sectors have had the most impact financially on the US and the world, and because these four subjects represent the four stages along a work in progress time line in which each are located.

In order for the Globalists to achieve their goal of creating a socialist world, they have to dismantle the financial, economic, cultural and social boundaries of individual nations and rebuild them back up into a collective one world cohesive body politic. It means individuals in each nation will have to surrender former lifestyles and accept the Globalists’ devised bigger and overall “improved” method of a socialistic government.

The first of four stages and the preferred method consistent throughout these four sectors that are used to dismantle the aforementioned boundaries is to introduce some form of chaos in the respective sector that will necessitate the creation of an organization, an organization designed by the Globalists, and operated by them for the benefit of their ideals. The second stage is to convene a meeting of these so-called “experts” to devise their remedy. The third step is to allow the “experts” to introduce their socialistic solution to the public. Accompanying the introduction, positive reinforcement of their plan to lend some credence to it is implemented. The fourth stage and completion of the plan is to perpetuate the system by creating organizations out of which come these experts that maintain their plan, manage continued progress towards their goal while simultaneously keeping their ploy hidden from public.

The Federal Reserve came into being in 1913, so entrenched in the minds of public acceptance that removal or revision of operations seems impossible. To the Globalists, controlling the money supply was the surest method of controlling the economy, and because of its impact on the economy, the most reliable way of garnering control over the citizens. Directing citizens to accept the idea of a Central Bank in the form of the Federal Reserve was the second goal. Once accomplished, this allowed the Globalist to lead the citizens on a socialist path accepting the direction they, the Globalists, devised. By manipulating domestic economic activity, Globalists could introduce their socialistic remedies. With the ability to direct business activity in a certain country, they could influence government leaders to follow along. With the leaders of each country compliant, Globalist’s monetary system would remain unchallenged as it continued strengthening as each country capitulated to the Globalists ideals of socialistic objectives. A foreign leader desperate for money or economic prosperity will accept the “Conditions” of the loan Globalists make. These are surely agreements to accept the Globalists influence and direction for socialist goals. Once the money supply is controlled, socialistic means can be introduced into other areas of society. In this book, I will offer a brief history outlining the organizations and people who devised this one world agenda, describe the history of money in the US and the birth of the Federal Reserve Board, how it operates, manipulates the financial markets positively or negatively to suit its plan and reveal the secret agenda how the plotters who formed this “cartel” plan to control the economies of every nation on earth.

Trade and taxes are intricately intertwined beginning the trend towards socialism in 1913. In actuality, the income tax was part of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, so the Globalist passed legislation providing simultaneously for: 1) The Federal Reserve to control and spend the money supply they create, and 2) The means to pay, (Income Tax) for the expenditures!! Through ongoing trade wars and dismantling of sovereign nations through free trade measures, the trade issue is in the work-in-progress mode. Returning to trade policies which enabled previous generations to enjoy the prosperous lifestyles of the 1890’s and 1920’s is unlikely, possible but unlikely. For one, the protective tariffs that provided for the nascent industrial base to flourish allowing for increased employment generating financial wealth for the public to afford the amenities of the times; the lavish lifestyles of the “Roaring 20’s” and with the advent of automobiles and ocean liners, travel and expansion, are considered by many as implausible; implausible to the Globalists who do not want the public to know how well protectionism worked. However, with recent economic events protective measures and discussions are resurfacing. A decision to revive protective measures will remain with the reader after reading the credibility of them in Trade.

Fostering socialism through progressive taxes thereby redistributing wealth also began in 1913. The continuing confiscation of wealth through higher and more taxes stymies production and increases societal dependency on the government, in other words, the advent of a nanny state or socialism! The tax system is flawed. An additional means of generating government revenues, besides over taxation, is needed and while this subject is in the work-in-progress mode as well, debate and restructuring tax policy is constantly in debate. See the definition of socialism. To overhaul the tax system, one needs the assistance of new trade policies and a new business attitude.

The Health Care system and the ongoing debate began after World War II is beyond the nascent stage. If the public blindly accepts the Government’s recommendations without information and warnings to the potential outcomes, then the true objective could develop into socialized medicine. In the fifty plus years when health care cost showed up on the radar screen as a hot topic, the public has witnessed and experienced first hand the speed of governmental interference and eventual control of the vast accumulation of expenditures for the health care crisis.

From time to time, relevant and smaller examples found in Connecticut to illustrate the broader but similar problems facing the nation will be used.

HISTORY OF EUROPEAN BANKING/ THE BIRTH OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE

Creation of Central Banks

Because of its influence to shape geo-political and economic events, Globalist’s efforts to establish The Federal Reserve, thus gaining control of our money supply, was the first area of influence they sought. Once control of the money supply is established, then the Globalists can shape fiscal and monetary policy to direct the citizenry to accept the gradual tilt towards socialism. As Baron Rothschild once said: “If you want to get control of people, first get control of their money.” It is the first and most important also because once accomplished, the other areas in which to gain control and thereby introduce socialism become easier to attain.

What is the Federal Reserve? How did it arrive in the United States? How did the US operate financial markets before its inception? What exactly does the Federal Reserve do? How does it decide what it does? Has the Federal Reserve been good or bad for the United States? What are some of the consequences of its decisions? How many member banks are there in the Federal Reserve System? How many members on its committee, how many Chairmen? With the power the Federal Reserve welds, can anyone recite the names of all the Chairmen of each Federal Reserve Bank, as law students do when recalling the names of the Supreme Court Justices?

The evolution of the Federal Reserve System in the United States has been a long tedious process. During the early years of the United States, many attempts were made by European influences to establish a central bank and were repulsed. So, over time, with failed attempts, drastic measures had to be brought upon the US to overcome the detractors of the Central Bank. The following is a brief history of the attempts and the severe measures used and the organizations founded to perpetuate the system.

The original purpose of the Federal Reserve System, established in 1913, is to give the country an elastic currency, provide facilities for discounting commercial paper and to improve the supervision of banking. (1) However, over the years and through the Globalists sinister plots, added responsibilities include balancing the flow of money to stabilize the economy by infusing money to foster growth when necessary and to slow the economy down to prevent inflation by removing money from the economy; in short, to provide steady growth in the economy and to prevent boom and bust cycles. Additionally, to maintain a high level of employment, to stabilize the purchasing power of the dollar and to maintain reasonable balances in transactions with other countries, have come to be other responsibilities placed upon the Federal Reserve.

As is generally accepted, different cultures and countries came into contact with one another through exploration, trade commerce, and wars. For survival of a country or prevention from becoming extinct and literally being wiped off the face of the earth, countries needed money and natural resources for weaponry. It was through trade where transactions for goods, spices, etc, generated wealth for nations. It was duri...
