Quote by Ly Tran

“I began to look at them in a new light and finally understood that they had always wanted what was best for me, had always wished for my success, but lacked the tools and knowledge to help me. They did what they could, escaping poverty and persecution to bring my brothers and me to what they saw as this promised land. They could not have anticipated all the hardships we would face here. Faith was all they had.”

“The most profound injustice a government can perpetrate against its people is not the theft of their wealth but the systematic destruction of their education and healthcare systems. A populace deprived of knowledge and burdened by poor health becomes vulnerable, malleable, and susceptible to manipulation, conditioned like Pavlov’s dogs to respond predictably to external stimuli.”

“We are still relatively free in our purchasing decisions. However, the biggest infringement is caused by our monetary system and the taxes and other charges being forced upon us. Taking our money away via taxes, other charges and inflation highly limits our freedom because we are no longer able to enjoy the fruits of our labor. The stronger members of society, ¨the rich¨, have their ways of getting around the compulsory purchase of taxes. Inflation is even beneficial to them because they can use the non-backed currency to buy real assets which will make them even richer.”

“If we still had gold as our currency, we would now all be filthy rich. Instead, we only have a few really rich people, It is no coincidence that this small group consists of the same families behind the American central banking system. The truth is that the founding of the American Federal Reserve Bank is the greatest systematic looting of wealth the world has ever seen. (...) The likelihood that this crime against humanity happened by chance is close to zero.”

“...government needs to destroy our self-confidence and stop us from thinking logically. They can only do this by redefining words or creating new ones. Before government can reign over our bodies, it must rule over our minds. This explains the real reason for mandatory public education. (...) The earlier government education begins, the better it is for the slaveholders because it's easiest to influence children. The belief that government is there to take care of us is at the beginning of all brainwashing.”
