Will Grigg's Liberty Minute

July 19, 2011

The Federal Reserve ? a criminal syndicate engaged in government-licensed counterfeiting and fraud -- profits from government profligacy: For a fee, it prints the money spent by the government, and its member banks charge interest on the money they lend to the government.

The monetary inflation thus created steals the value of everything Americans earn and save. This has created the world-historic crisis of debt and insolvency that is literally tearing nations apart ? and threatening our own society as well. In terms of the damage already done, and the ruin that lies before us, the Fed is a far greater engine of destruction than radical Islam.

Republican President aspirant Herman Cain is a former official of the Federal Reserve System. He insists that he is proud of his supposed service, and that the Fed is an institution worth preserving ? even as it destroys what remains of the American middle class. At the same time, Cain is making opposition to Islam ? not merely to Islamic terrorism, but of the constitutionally protected freedom of Muslims to gather for peaceful worship ? a centerpiece of his campaign. How can this be anything other than cynical, opportunistic scapegoating?

Let us take back the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free.
