Because the people have to pay interest on Three Hundred Billion
Dollars of Indebtedness is the reason they have to pay exorbitant
taxes; why the purchasing power of their earnings is cut down; why
they have to pay three or four times the price of everything they
buy as it is worth. You blame the politician for all of those increasing taxes but he has nothing to do with it. The politician is made the goat to collect taxes to pay interest to the financiers. You blame the politician for your taxes just as you blame the manufacturer for the low wages paid and the high price of the product you buy when he has nothing to do with it. Both the manufacturer and the politician are made goats by the financier. You curse the Industrialist and the Politician but never say boo against the fellow who is actually robbing you. The financier has the people sewed up. He makes the people fight among themselves over his TOUTS. He teaches the people over his various avenues of publicity that his Touts are their heroes. The people don’t know that. You get mad if someone tells you that one of your mental heroes is a tout who betrays you. You must shake yourself loose from such a credulous condition and find out the facts for yourself. Another thing you must do. You must weigh and consider everything I tell you and reason it out for yourself whether I am telling you the truth or not. There is an easy way to find out whether your leaders are the Touts of the financiers or not. Just ask them whether they stand for INTEREST or NO |
INTEREST. That should tell the tale. The financier gave to me every opportunity that I could wish, to become a partner with him, and if I had been as unscrupulous as he is I could have been a Billionaire today. He wanted me as a partner because I had a greater insight and knowledge and practical experience of the Aircraft Industry and Airline Service than anyone else, and as he knew nothing about it, he was anxious to put money and credit which he controlled, back of my ability. At different times the financier sent me blank contracts to fill out with my own figures to be inserted as I might choose. As far as I am concerned personally, I have no complaint to make against the financier. He treated me all right, according to the game. But I knew too much about the financier aad his crooked ways to, tie up with him. I knew of all of the dirty work he had done during the past, and what was more, I knew of the dirty work he was going to do in the future. What he had done was bad enough, but what he was going to do was worse. So, I decided to have nothing to do with him as a partner. The financier has put out of business more than three million merchants during the past eight years and he will put all merchants out of business within a few years unless they join the Direct Credits Society for mutual protection. In fact, unless Direct Credits wins soon there won’t be a manufacturer in the United States that will own his own factory. There won't be a farmer that will own his own farm. There won’t be a working man that will own |
