“Gold and all “currencies” are manipulated by an elite few central controllers from ancient blood line families based out of the City of London, and the move is to make all countries and the planet centrally managed by this same elite few and their affiliates. Those in the way will face retribution, as is happening again now in the Middle East and working up through the Balkan states.” ~Z Gardner
Gold has been sought after, coveted, fought over and used as a standard of monetary exchange for millennia. The reason for its intrinsic value is a subject of its own, but nonetheless it eventually became the monetary standard that it is today. Yet the world of monetary exchange in our current world is only metaphorically based on gold and has all but fully abandoned it as its true base.
Whatever the “exchange” medium, these self-acclaimed high priests hijacking humanity use it for power and control. Ironically, they themselves are hooked on their own fascination, feeding off of its control and the suffering of others attempting to find financial safety and security in their rigged system.
Meanwhile, world bankers and plutocrats are currently amassing huge gold reserves as the world financial system approaches a major, world changing reset. Clearly something is afoot and gold is what the manipulators are fleeing to, all the while suppressing its value on the open market as they buy it up.
How we arrived here, and why, are huge subjects of research and debate. One thing we know, whether or not a currency is attached to gold, as well as the idea of personal holdings of gold, are extremely important subjects on which to get a fundamental grasp. Nevertheless, the deeper aspects regarding the value and true meaning of gold within earth’s historical context is well worth investigating as clearly the “powers that be” of every age have attached great importance to it.
Things are completely different once we turn to money production in interventionist regimes, which have prevailed in the West for the better part of the past 150 years. Here we need to mention in particular two institutional forms of monetary interventionism: (fraudulent) fractional reserve banking and fiat money. The common characteristic of both these institutions is that they violate the principle of free association. They enable the producers of paper money and of money titles to expand their production through the violation of other people’s property rights.
