a paycheck should remember as the beginning of the attack on their
personal wealth.

First of all, the Federal Reserve Bank of the United States is not a
government entity. That’s a myth. Neither is it a U.S. entity. It is a bank
owned by some of the richest people in the world.
When the Federal Reserve Bank was formed, the richest people in the

world took control of the monetary system of the richest country in the
world . . . and then changed the rules of money.
Today, I hear Americans demanding that the government protect
American jobs and American interests. Occasionally, I hear people say,

“Buy American,” or “Support American businesses.” Well, it’s too late for
that. Those are feeble cries from a desperate people. In 1913, the richest
people in the world took control of the world’s money supply by taking
control of the world’s richest economy, the U.S. economy. They changed

the rules, and did not tell anyone.
Today, the U.S. is technically a bankrupt economy, a treasury stuffed full
with its own IOUs, known as bonds or T-bills, bills that the children of
future generations will have to pay. This stealing of wealth goes on as

billions of people go to work in the businesses of the rich, save money in
the banks of the rich, and invest in the assets of the rich (i.e., stocks, bonds,
and mutual funds) via the investment bankers to the rich. The system is
intentionally designed to take and control as much of your money as

possible—legally.

Giants. The word “GRUNCH” is an acronym for Gross Universal Cash
Heist. The book was written by Dr. R. Buckminster Fuller, considered one

of the greatest geniuses of our time. I had the good fortune to personally
study with Dr. Fuller three times, just before he died in 1983. He has had a
tremendous impact upon my life, as he has on many other people who have
read his works or studied with him. Harvard University considers him one

of their most significant alumni, and the American Institute of Architects
recognizes him as one of the greatest designers of our time.
If you can find Dr. Fuller’s book, Grunch of Giants, I believe it will
make a little clearer how the game of money was stolen from the people,

and shielded from discovery by our educational system. I believe you will
