When it comes to the Federal Reserve, there's an awful lot of books out there; in my library, I bet I've got 200 books if I've got any on the Federal Reserve.

The second reason, it's an immoral institution, because we have delivered to a secretive body the privilege of creating money out of thin air; if you or I did it, we'd be called counterfeiters, so why have we legalized counterfeiting? But the economic reasons are overwhelming: the Federal Reserve is the creature that destroys value.

The United States is the most indebted country in the world. It has almost 17 billion dollars of debt with the rest of the world while living off the world's savings.

We as young men need just one of our peers to stand up and trust his God completely and without reserve.
