THE REAL CAUSE OF THE REVOLUTION (THE COLONIAL SCRIP)
ITS TIME FOR AMERICANS TO LEARN THE TRUTH
LISTEN TO THE FOUNDING FATHERS
Benjamin Franklin:
"In the Colonies, we issue our own paper money. It is called 'Colonial Scrip.' We issue it in proper proportion to make the goods pass easily from the producers to the consumers. In this manner, creating ourselves our own paper money, we control its purchasing power and we have no interest to pay to no one."
When asked about the prosperity of the colonies in contrast to the poverty in England (with its debtors’ prisons), the widely accepted English account—which contrasts the sovereign model with the bankers’ debt model—is as follows:
"That is simple. In the colonies, we issue our own paper money. It is called 'Colonial Scrip.' We issue it in proper proportion to make the goods pass easily from the producers to the consumers... You see, a legitimate government can both spend and lend money into circulation, while banks can only lend significant amounts of their promissory bank notes... Thus, when your bankers here in England place money in circulation, there is always a debt principal to be returned and usury to be paid. The result is that you have always too little credit in circulation to give the workers full employment. You do not have too many workers, you have too little money in circulation, and that which circulates, all bears the endless burden of un-payable debt and usury."
The Fairy Tale Version: Taxes on Tea
"The Colonies would gladly have borne the little tax on tea and other matters had it not been the poverty caused by the bad influence of the English bankers on the Parliament, which has caused in the Colonies hatred of England and the Revolutionary War."
THE REAL CAUSE OF THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR:
"The refusal of King George to allow the colonies to operate an honest money system, which freed the ordinary man from clutches of the money manipulators was probably the prime cause of the revolution"
