The Federal Reserve has been at the top of the news for a long time and it’s getting a lot of attention now as it appears the next down cycle in the depression may be upon us.

 

So what’s the real reason the world listens so intently to an Ivy League bureaucrat like Bernanke? Of course, it has nothing to do with him.

 

It’s who he is accountable to the international banking cartel:
 

US
Bank of America Securities LLC
Cantor Fitzgerald & Co.
Citigroup Global Markets Inc.
Goldman, Sachs & Co.
Jefferies & Company, Inc.
J. P. Morgan Securities Inc.
Morgan Stanley & Co. Inc.

Britain
Barclays Capital Inc.
HSBC Securities (USA) Inc.

Switzerland
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC
UBS Securities LLC.

Japan
Daiwa Capital Markets America Inc.
Mizuho Securities USA Inc.
Nomura Securities International, Inc.

Germany
Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.

France
BNP Paribas Securities Corp.

Canada
RBC Capital Markets Corp.

Scotland
RBS Securities Inc.

These institutions are the current primary dealers of the Federal Reserve System.

 

They have power over the entire economy, everything in “the market,” very much a non-free market. They sit at the top of the world’s monetary system, currently the FED’s debt-dollar pyramid, with a governmental license to what has been the most secure capital in the world - US Treasury debt - for a monopoly price that nobody else can get.

 

And when it comes to global finance, the difference between the strongest banks vs. dying banks is just a few basis points in price (cost of capital).

These banks get first dibs on buying the servitude of the US population through the FED/Treasury auction process. They distribute some of it to subordinate capital for a guaranteed premium, and they park a large amount of it on their own balance sheets as assets upon which they can speculate, trade, and fractionalize to create the rest of the money in the economy and put other countries, companies, and people in even more debt.

 

So these institutions hold a monopoly position that even leviathan Standard Oil never dreamed of:

a government-enforced usury license that generates trillions for their premium capital holders and senior employees and allows them to act as imperial armies sucking in more territory around the world as neoliberalism breaks down sovereignty.

This is why the country list above doesn’t mean what some may think. The institutions aren’t national.

 

The list only indicates that the banking establishment has a permanent parasitic stake in those countries to churn their populations under the FED’s debt system. All of the listed institutions are global in nature.

 

Together with hedge funds and their other buy-side buddies, they have power over nations. Like any corporate institution, banks drive earnings per share (EPS) by expanding and leveraging their balance sheets, which for banks means putting everything else in more debt. So these cartel banks work to expand their territorial control beyond their national borders to put other populations in debt.

 

This is a mathematical requirement of exponential growth enforced by the private capital system.

 

The eventual end state of this dynamic is one integrated, global banking empire. It’s only a matter of time before their collective balance sheets (plus the large Chinese banks now that the cartel is colluding with them) control the rest of the world if people don’t awaken and choose to put a stop to it.

Will they succeed? The FED system is in transition.

 

The crash of 2008 was the first phase of global capital holders shifting their private capital out of the system so the FED was forced to add public capital, i.e. your debt, into the system. More of this is likely coming.

 

But does this mean the international banks behind the FED are dying? No. They’ve simply transferred their bad assets to the public through the FED and prepared to ramp up operations in Asia, which will be a primary churn center for the 21st century global banking system.

 

Capital assets have been transferred, production assets have been transferred, and the capital holders can transfer much more capital in a short period of time if they so choose.

All the specifics of this coming transition may not be clear, but it is coming unless the global population says no. The banks have set up the ultimate voluntary test.

 

If we continue to say yes by playing along with the banks and the multinational corporations they control, then they will have proven that a global empire ruled by an integrated banking system is preferred and possibly superior to independent countries. But they appear to be failing their own test.

 

Ivy League neoliberalism has been exposed for what it is.

 

The people are now indeed saying no.
