This is a riveting must read for everyone. I’m not a numbers or financial person, but it gives you history: authors family’s lived experience of The Great Depression, the consequences and how it determined his path.

He also describes the velocity of money, and ‘collateral.’ Banksters have declared war against all domestic populations with the intent to take everything you think you own. Get your money out the bank. Owe no debt on anything. Make sure you have the physical title deeds for any property you might own outright.

Get out of the system.

In a way, it's kind of exciting watching how fast a few wicked people can take down so many countries at the behest of one man, Obama while literally billions just do nothing, and at best discreetly seem patriotic and still they, do nothing. Not sure the elites saw how lax lazy and dumb Americans and Europeans could be. We're making too easy

I think that this happened to hedge funds before and larger brokerages warn about their "products" not being guaranteed but the largest brokers say that they are simply custodians to your individual stocks and bonds. Beware the "products ": most ETFs, many mutual funds, managed portfolios possibly, etc.

Is there no country outside this system? Nicaragua perhaps? Mexico?? where you could own a property, outright, without fear of confiscation

C'mon MATTHEW... Talking about the current TRANSFER of fiat wealth and real wealth into the HANDS of the Secular Ruling Families & Billionaires without mentioning the Aliens https://voza0db.substack.com/p/morons-just-dont-get-it-01e

is just NOT FAIR!

But don't worry... Just like we herds of modern moron slaves have DONE NOTHING since Their last financial terrorist attack of 2007/8, we'll remain doing nothing while They do whatever They DESIRE.

Simple FACT & Reality that OPERATION COVIDIUS provides undeniable proof.

What's worse, any no third party risks could be in jeopardy as well. I'm a pacifist but nature's self preservation instincts tells me it's time for open season on the bankers/Kharzinians/whomever they are! Time to locate and hunt em down one by one!

Already awake to their extortion and trespassing of private property but this documentary is not for the weak @ heart! They already own your biological vessel/body with an "impossible contract." These Jacbobins wiill throw you on the street with a whim using their expendable/replaceable policey pirates/fishers of men who'll gladly and get off on shoving you head into the ground with a boot. The Christ masses just love deceit and continue to ask for more voluntarily voting and paying the vatican mob IRS collection agency!

I read The Great Taking a few months ago. I don't really buy it. But, regardless of that, the whole premise of the book is that it's the intermediaries who are the problem (banks, brokerage firms, etc.).

If that's the diagnosis, then in today's day and age, how could the book fail to mention Bitcoin, Ethereum, and any other blockchain where there are no intermediaries? It's a little early now, but it's pretty obvious that all stock and debentures will eventually migrate to some blockchain. Stocks and bonds are just representations of ownership; eventually they will be tokenized and the roles of these intermediaries will change. Webb never mentions blockchains or any of the obvious solutions to the dilemma he describes. If the problem is the intermediaries, then get rid of the intermediaries.

I've not read this book, but have done my fair share of reading on the BIS, Fed, IMF, Central banks and the Great Depression. What rings true and is timeless, no matter the era you're in is, the past/present opportunists understand that control of monetary systems and currency valuation is key, to the control of populations.

The other clarity is that when it comes to "money", those who control it, NEVER have your best interests in mind.

They will close banks, withhold assets, devalue currencies and impoverish entire nations, in order to gain more control, assets, power and influence. They have set up legacy systems and agreements, to these ends.

I've said this many times. These opportunists play the long game, and plan/operate in decades and centuries. We myopic commoners have been taught to think in the short term...weeks, months and election cycles happy to focus on a meaningless sports series, while they plan out the next 100 years of control and dominance.

Those who set up the FED, BIS and IMF, had no doubt, that their progeny and successors would sit in power, over the masses and control the wealth and assets of not just individuals, but nations.

"The Great Taking" would have worked in the environment and time it was written. Post COVID and the Fourth Turning we are in - it won't.

Fealty is gone. There are enough hard nosed men to take it on if it eventuates. I have great respect for the author and his exposure of the legal architecture that has most certainly been built brick by brick in anticipation of a muted response in a time of great crisis.

The cover story is not there. Let's watch.
