What is this non-sense? Legal tender today is almost completely fiat money (paper). The Fed Reserve can bail out anyone and everyone they want to and have (The partial audit we got revealed 16 Trillion in loans / bailouts to foreign banks and Governments & Private interests like JP Morgan / Goldman Sachs / Citi / McDonalds / etc. etc.). Paper money is only limited by the amount of numbers you can print on a piece of paper (which using font .2 could probably end up being 10^60 which means paper is always and everywhere become worthless).

It seems you have no idea how the monetary system works in todays world. It won't last long -- you are living in the age of Fiat Collapse. All the paper money is racing towards zero.

Besides, Governments have always been under the influence of the most wealthy. The ones who need to be outed are those who receive Government immunities, graft, and privilege.

Also, the second richest person in the world if I remember is the Queen of England. She still controls a vast majority of the world.

I'm pretty sure I know what GDP is, I was making a comparison just to put things into perspective.

And FYI, the total amount of farmland in the US is 2.5 trillion. Now farmland isn't land, its land with revenue, idle land is worth almost nothing. Farmland now is probably selling at something like 15 times land value.

Total amount of gold in the world is estimate 7 trillion.

According to The Economist, "developed economies'" assets at the end of 2002 were the following:
Residential property: $48 trillion;
Commercial property: $14 trillion;
Equities: $20 trillion;
Government bonds: $20 trillion;
Corporate bonds: $13 trillion;
Total: $115 trillion.

Developed economies include all Europe, North and some of South America, Australia, and parts of Asia/Africa.

So technically, OP is claiming that Rothschild's own TOTAL DEVELOPED ECONOMIES ASSETS + 5 TIMES TOTAL WORLD GDP, so.. yeah.

I mean, this is all just throwing figures around, I can't be bothered to verify them all, but seriously just.. just consider the statements before talking.

This is not a conspiracy and thats not how you should approach the subject.

i dont think the rothschilds are evil
i dont think they rule the world
i dont think they have much direct infuence over my life

im just brining this up because i personaly find it to be a very interesting gem of history.

Dont you find it fascinating that one Man, Mayer Amschel Rothschild, born as a poor jew in an antisemitic society, managed to lay the foundation stone to what would be the biggest fortune in modern history. and this happened over just 3 generations.

Wikipedia has a source index. The most reliable source you could find would be nial fergussons books wich were approved by the rothschild family itself.

You dispel his contention with even more preposterous conspiracy theorist garbage? I'm going to guess you like Ron Paul. No, money is worth something because we agree it is and because people keep working and making things. Gold is no more inherently valuable (as a conductor, it's great. But there's no mythical reason pegging currency to it will save the world).

The committee of detail, which drew up the initial draft of the Constitution, explicitly gave the federal government the power "to emit bills on the credit of the United States." They presented their work to the full convention for consideration on 6 August 1787. The debate was soon joined. Although some delegates spoke in favor of granting the power (including James Madison), the majority were resolutely opposed.

Oliver Ellsworth of Connecticut remarked that since "the mischiefs of the various experiments which had been made were now fresh in the public mind, and had excited the disgust of all the respectable part of America, [it was] "a favorable moment to shut and bar the door against paper money. … The power may do harm, never good." George Read of Delaware warned that the power "if not struck out, would be as alarming as the mark of the beast in Revelation." John Langdon of New Hampshire said that he would "rather reject the whole plan than retain the three words 'and emit bills.'" The vote was then taken. Nine states voted for striking out the phrase "and emit bills on the credit of the United States." Only two states (New Jersey and Maryland) voted to retain it.

The heroic Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts was so alarmed by the prospect of the federal government having this power that he wanted an explicit prohibition, but the other delegates thought it unnecessary. Experience soon vindicated Gerry's apprehension and desire for additional safeguards.

Marcus Crassus was possibly the most wealthy single human being who has ever lived. He was a Real Estate baron, who later shared control of Rome with Julius Caesar and Pompey. He reportedly owned a large swathe of the empire. He wanted to be recognised for his military prowess however, and this led to an ill fated attack on Parthia. He was defeated in battle, and was executed by having molten gold poured down his throat. A nasty end.

Nial Fergusson had acess to the rothschild archive, wich contains letters, bills and other historical documents signed by family members and prominent people from their time. If thats not a reliable source of history, nothing is.

Okay so go back to being under a rock, if you don't trust era documents then you probably don't trust any major historical documents, don't be silly.

Thanks to Ron Paul we know a bit more than we use to, but it was only a partial audit. We need to pass the actual Audit and Eliminate the Federal Reserve. If you like your money constantly being devalued to bail out the banks special buddies and interests, then continue the agitprop for the Fed. As far as Gold, it has always been money and still is today, the problem is it is not recognized as legal tender (even though it is and it is the only Constitutional money with Silver), because the people had no idea about money and banking, but that is changing quickly. (Gold & Silver have the best properties for being money, hence it always emerges out of the market as the recognized monies)

Also the Government consistently uses their violent powers to throw those people in jail who do not want to use the paper money:

You should really read the notes in the Constitutional Convention in regards to 'Emit Bills of Credit' (fiat paper monies) which was quickly taken out. There is no authority for paper money either Federally, or on a State level. It is in fact, illegal, but when has the Government followed their contract with the States?
