The truth, as in all things, lies somewhere in the middle.
There is a large group of people that don't answer to anyone and have a great deal of power. It's called the Federal Reserve.
I won't get into further discussion since it can become very volatile depending how you view it. |

Anytime a small group of people are given immense power, there will be corruption.
No one is sure how corrupt the military-industrial complex is, but it's usually regarded as being, at least, strongly nationalist, while woefully survivalist regarding it's fiscal policy. However, there is government oversight here implied by the constitution and practice, however inept that may be.
The federal reserve, on the other hand, can essentially do anything it wants. It can make any deals it wants, it is infinitely more corruptible because there is no oversight and far fewer members. Meetings are held behind closed doors and edited minutes released 5 years later. It's possible they meet secretly with government officials, but it's not certain.
The bottom line is, I have some uneasiness when it comes to the military, but I have outright suspicion about the Federal Reserve System.
Here is a bland outline of the federal reserve so you can make up your own minds. Don't stop there. Do your own research.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Reserve_System
The most important lesson in all of this, is look at a wide variety of sources and then choose for yourself. Don't read a paper or editorial and immediately fall in line. Challenge the thinking. Challenge my thinking. Once a month examine something about your home countries' government or society and spend some time using your mind. Ignore the television. It has nothing to tell you. |

Yes, my officer team has taken over in Kelethin, and soon Kaladim will be held within our merciless fist. Long has Akanon been under our dominion due to our strategic addition of gnomins. Now that nefra is on the team, the nation of the iksar will feel the weight of oppression within a month. |

This movie gives a history of the federal reserve and how it can and is being manipulated by the global elite. The movie provides a guide of how we Americans are being manipulated to be a stupid sheep herd that is set to follow this global elite into enslavement.
If you watch this movie you will thank me for posting it.
