Publisher's summary

This classic expose of the Fed has become one of the best-selling books in its category of all time. Where does money come from? Where does it go? Who makes it? The money magician's secrets are unveiled. Here is a close look at their mirrors and smoke machines, the pulleys, cogs, and wheels that create the grand illusion called money. A boring subject? Just wait. You'll be hooked in five minutes. It reads like a detective story - which it really is, but it's all true.

This book is about the most blatant scam of history. It's all here: the cause of wars, boom-bust cycles, inflation, depression, prosperity. Your world view will definitely change. Putting it quite simply, this may be the most important book on world affairs you will ever read.

The 5th Edition includes a no-holds barred analysis of bank bailouts under the Bush and Obama Administrations that are shown to be nothing less than legalized plunder of the American people. Many other updates have been added, including a revision to the list of those who attended the historic meeting at Jekyll Island, where the Federal Reserve was created.

Naked truth about world's monetary system

Loved the book. Must read for every patriot and every parent. It should be mandated as a lecture for all high-schoolers.
Highly recommended. I am going to buy a hard copy.

Amazing, Scary, Absolute Truth

This book should be a required reading assignment at every high school, university, & college. Previously, I instinctively felt like the current economic banking structure possessed a misunderstood brand of evil and concealed sinister undercurrents, but I had no idea how broad and insidiously vile the world banking system had truly become or how it came to be. At various points, this text stirred in me a myriad of emotions such as fear, optimism, resentment, frustration, hope, anger, confusion, sadness, purpose, hopelessness, but ultimately left me feeling educated and somewhat more prepared for several possible economic and political eventualities. Knowledge is power, and I truly believe this text possesses a degree of information rarely seen in the nonfiction literary world. I have, and will continue, to recommend this book to everyone I know. If you care about your future, the future of your children, and the future of freedom itself, legitimately try to understand the principles, history, and guidance outlined in this text and share it with as many people as you possibly can as quickly as you can!

Pretty Excellent

A very detailed and excellent investigation of the financial system and also just what could happen and going through the history itself to bring to us just what would be the probable solutions that we would have.

Very well done! Applies to current events!

Eye-opening! Very applicable to current global events, reinforcing the accuracy of this book. The author makes clear what are his opinions and what are facts with specific references and citations. Things seem more clear than ever now. Be prepared to see the world powers in a different light.

Only for those who would choose the red pill...

This is the primer for those willing to take the RED pill. It will likely take multiple times going through this book to even begin to truly understand, but once you do you do there is no going back. If this isn’t what you want, save your money, choose the blue pill and maybe everything will be ok...or not.
