00:00:33,899 --> 00:00:36,416
The American dream
3
00:00:37,083 --> 00:00:39,961
There's a reason that they called it a dream
4
00:00:39,961 --> 00:00:40,791
Ah!
5
00:00:40,791 --> 00:00:41,771
Who's there?
6
00:00:42,122 --> 00:00:43,927
Cock-a-doddle-do Pile.
7
00:00:43,927 --> 00:00:45,006
knocking
8
00:00:48,900 --> 00:00:50,709
No no no no no
9
00:00:50,709 --> 00:00:52,649
I don't have any more money.
10
00:00:52,810 --> 00:00:55,215
My job sucks right now, please!
11
00:00:55,215 --> 00:00:57,218
I'll have more money next month.
12
00:00:58,951 --> 00:01:00,601
You can't take my house!
13
00:01:00,601 --> 00:01:02,141
Is that your signature?
14
00:01:04,121 --> 00:01:07,211
Oookay well just help me work something out, okay?
15
00:01:07,211 --> 00:01:08,580
I mean you said I'm a good credit guy right?
16
00:01:08,580 --> 00:01:10,140
I mean...hey, wait!
17
00:01:10,630 --> 00:01:11,940
My dog is in there!
18
00:01:11,940 --> 00:01:14,700
Nooo, don't take my Dream!
19
00:01:14,700 --> 00:01:17,330
sobbing
20
00:01:18,378 --> 00:01:20,448
Oh, how did this happen?
21
00:01:20,955 --> 00:01:24,955
BOOM
22
00:01:24,955 --> 00:01:25,635
Huh?
23
00:01:27,875 --> 00:01:30,035
Hartman? Is that you?
24
00:01:30,243 --> 00:01:32,555
Been a long time since the fourth grade.
25
00:01:41,900 --> 00:01:43,280
Is that a time machine?
26
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,110
There's no need to concern yourself
27
00:01:45,110 --> 00:01:46,550
with my stand accomplishments.
28
00:01:46,550 --> 00:01:47,505
Best get in.
29
00:01:48,019 --> 00:01:49,149
There's not much time.
30
00:01:49,434 --> 00:01:50,974
crying I gotta go down to the bank
31
00:01:50,974 --> 00:01:52,146
to get my life back.
32
00:01:52,146 --> 00:01:53,956
They took everything!
33
00:01:53,956 --> 00:01:56,683
Ooh! Bank ain't gonna help you now.
34
00:01:56,904 --> 00:01:58,194
Towel in the trunk.
35
00:01:58,414 --> 00:01:59,394
Extra set of balls.
36
00:01:59,394 --> 00:02:00,515
Put 'em on, you're gonna need 'em.
37
00:02:00,595 --> 00:02:02,275
crying you're gonna get my Dream back?
38
00:02:02,275 --> 00:02:05,165
No, Pile. You are. I'm here to show you how.
39
00:02:05,165 --> 00:02:07,673
ZOOM
40
00:02:08,507 --> 00:02:10,917
"The Twilight Zone" theme music
41
00:02:12,933 --> 00:02:14,403
Submitted for your approval,
42
00:02:14,403 --> 00:02:16,173
one First National Bank.
43
00:02:16,353 --> 00:02:17,812
What is a bank, you ask?
44
00:02:18,090 --> 00:02:18,920
A curious place
45
00:02:18,920 --> 00:02:21,502
where both space, time, and irony exist.
46
00:02:22,023 --> 00:02:22,623
And yet...
47
00:02:23,221 --> 00:02:23,521
don't.
48
00:02:23,676 --> 00:02:25,186
Uh, are you gonna be doin' that the
49
00:02:25,186 --> 00:02:25,956
whole time?
50
00:02:25,956 --> 00:02:27,328
Pay attention, Pile.
51
00:02:27,582 --> 00:02:28,312
Exhibit A:
52
00:02:28,312 --> 00:02:30,912
Those who have come to deposit and safely
53
00:02:30,912 --> 00:02:31,990
store their earned monies.
54
00:02:32,654 --> 00:02:33,374
Exhibit B:
55
00:02:33,714 --> 00:02:35,914
Those who need to borrow said money
56
00:02:35,914 --> 00:02:37,524
for purposes...unknown.
57
00:02:37,991 --> 00:02:38,611
Hey!
58
00:02:38,812 --> 00:02:39,672
That's me!
59
00:02:39,672 --> 00:02:41,672
Ergo, exhibit C.
60
00:02:41,956 --> 00:02:43,666
The bank only has so much money
61
00:02:43,666 --> 00:02:44,837
in the vault to lend out.
62
00:02:45,282 --> 00:02:45,792
To people
63
00:02:46,157 --> 00:02:46,937
such as you.
64
00:02:47,667 --> 00:02:48,227
Hey!
65
00:02:48,274 --> 00:02:49,144
Hey that's the guy!
66
00:02:49,283 --> 00:02:50,400
He took my house!
67
00:02:50,424 --> 00:02:52,439
Really screwin' my vibe here, Pile.
68
00:02:52,582 --> 00:02:54,762
Space-time continuum, he can't hear you.
69
00:02:54,762 --> 00:02:56,467
Just let me narrate.
70
00:02:56,467 --> 00:02:57,837
Now, where was I? clears throat
71
00:02:58,100 --> 00:02:58,960
So you see,
72
00:02:59,131 --> 00:03:00,801
by the time he got to you, Pile,
73
00:03:01,036 --> 00:03:02,766
His bank was out of money
74
00:03:03,625 --> 00:03:03,995
But
75
00:03:04,371 --> 00:03:05,532
he gave me lots of money
76
00:03:05,532 --> 00:03:07,150
and charged me a lot of interest.
77
00:03:07,544 --> 00:03:08,044
Yes.
78
00:03:08,237 --> 00:03:10,167
That's the only way banks make money.
79
00:03:10,290 --> 00:03:11,599
By making debt loans.
80
00:03:11,599 --> 00:03:13,301
Debt equals money, pal.
81
00:03:13,770 --> 00:03:14,470
Remember that.
82
00:03:14,773 --> 00:03:16,195
Debt equals money.
83
00:03:16,278 --> 00:03:18,958
The more loans they make, the more money they make.
84
00:03:19,188 --> 00:03:20,610
But if they don't have any money,
85
00:03:20,610 --> 00:03:22,260
then where did my money come from?
86
00:03:22,570 --> 00:03:24,569
beeping You're gonna wanna take a step back, Pile.
87
00:03:27,673 --> 00:03:28,273
Woah!
88
00:03:29,147 --> 00:03:30,167
No way!
89
00:03:30,423 --> 00:03:31,073
Yes way.
90
00:03:31,295 --> 00:03:32,145
And that's nothing.
91
00:03:32,749 --> 00:03:35,157
Hey buddy, need some money?
92
00:03:37,456 --> 00:03:39,306
They didn't do that!
93
00:03:39,688 --> 00:03:41,798
Aw, they did exactly that, Pile.
94
00:03:41,931 --> 00:03:44,311
Remember, banks make money by making loans,
95
00:03:44,311 --> 00:03:46,473
by selling debt, even to
96
00:03:47,165 --> 00:03:49,197
...bad credit risks.
97
00:03:49,197 --> 00:03:51,817
hip hop music
98
00:03:51,817 --> 00:03:54,282
Yo, have some money, dude.
99
00:03:54,282 --> 00:03:55,677
Just sign here.
100
00:03:55,927 --> 00:03:57,220
Oh my gosh!
101
00:03:57,220 --> 00:03:59,313
Mm-hm, they called it "free money".
102
00:03:59,382 --> 00:04:02,060
Yeah, that's exactly what my loan guy told me,
103
00:04:02,060 --> 00:04:03,142
free money!
104
00:04:03,317 --> 00:04:04,597
But it ain't free,
105
00:04:04,723 --> 00:04:06,172
The worst part was offering money
106
00:04:06,172 --> 00:04:07,755
to people who don't even need it.
107
00:04:07,755 --> 00:04:09,743
People, Pile, like you.
108
00:04:10,491 --> 00:04:11,771
horn honking
109
00:04:12,152 --> 00:04:12,912
You were right,
110
00:04:13,031 --> 00:04:14,431
I didn't need him
111
00:04:14,431 --> 00:04:15,841
I was happy here,
112
00:04:15,841 --> 00:04:17,031
I didn't need it!
113
00:04:24,307 --> 00:04:26,632
Why's he sad? He's makin' all that money.
114
00:04:26,987 --> 00:04:29,087
Shhhhh...he's thinkin'.
115
00:04:31,670 --> 00:04:33,080
Now wait fo it...
116
00:04:33,853 --> 00:04:35,733
Now wait for it...
117
00:04:36,509 --> 00:04:37,409
Bingo.
118
00:04:37,994 --> 00:04:40,354
See the bank has loaned to everyone in town,
119
00:04:40,437 --> 00:04:42,091
but to make more money they have
120
00:04:42,091 --> 00:04:43,424
to loan even more.
121
00:04:43,977 --> 00:04:44,607
More?
122
00:04:44,895 --> 00:04:46,425
How much money do they need?
123
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,020
More.
124
00:04:48,824 --> 00:04:50,374
ominous music Waah? What's that?
125
00:04:50,374 --> 00:04:52,574
Oh ho, a black horse ridin'...
126
00:04:53,404 --> 00:04:59,204
credit cards.
127
00:05:12,298 --> 00:05:13,293
Wow! Look,
128
00:05:13,553 --> 00:05:15,040
I mean it's gonna be okay.
129
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:16,690
Everything's gonna be okay.
130
00:05:16,978 --> 00:05:17,738
What now?
131
00:05:17,897 --> 00:05:18,637
Now?
132
00:05:19,107 --> 00:05:20,677
We're powered with all this money,
133
00:05:21,071 --> 00:05:23,430
we might as well...party.
134
00:05:29,024 --> 00:05:31,665
Oh ho, this is awesome.
135
00:05:31,665 --> 00:05:33,379
I needed to get my head clear
136
00:05:33,379 --> 00:05:35,201
When I get back, I'm gonna straighten
137
00:05:35,201 --> 00:05:36,372
all this out
138
00:05:36,372 --> 00:05:38,265
I just hope Dream is doin' okay.
139
00:05:38,265 --> 00:05:40,589
wolves howling
140
00:05:40,589 --> 00:05:42,955
Dog barking
141
00:05:42,955 --> 00:05:45,162
I'm going to get you, my pretty
142
00:05:47,796 --> 00:05:48,406
Yup,
143
00:05:48,406 --> 00:05:49,126
he is,
144
00:05:49,126 --> 00:05:50,236
I'm sure he is.
145
00:05:50,236 --> 00:05:50,886
belches
146
00:05:50,886 --> 00:05:53,306
Thank you, you can put it on his tab.
147
00:05:53,306 --> 00:05:55,773
Little somethin' for yourself. Mhm.
148
00:05:56,207 --> 00:05:56,987
Sweet.
149
00:05:58,022 --> 00:05:58,852
You know...
150
00:05:59,048 --> 00:06:00,163
Wait a second, Hartman,
151
00:06:00,163 --> 00:06:01,684
I just thought of something.
152
00:06:01,684 --> 00:06:03,691
If I got this money from the bank...
153
00:06:03,691 --> 00:06:05,441
and the bank got it from the federal reserve
154
00:06:05,441 --> 00:06:06,440
dump trucks....
155
00:06:06,987 --> 00:06:08,167
Go on...
156
00:06:08,577 --> 00:06:10,457
Then...where does the federal reserve
157
00:06:10,457 --> 00:06:11,627
get their money?
158
00:06:12,102 --> 00:06:13,653
Real nice time, ladies.
159
00:06:13,706 --> 00:06:14,596
Real nice.
160
00:06:14,737 --> 00:06:16,530
Excuse me while I borrow these.
161
00:06:16,530 --> 00:06:18,013
women scream
162
00:06:18,187 --> 00:06:19,357
Say, Hartman...
163
00:06:19,357 --> 00:06:21,636
why am I wearing a burglar bikini top?
164
00:06:22,119 --> 00:06:23,379
because no one is allowed
165
00:06:23,379 --> 00:06:24,429
inside the Fed.
166
00:06:24,621 --> 00:06:26,051
Not you, not me
167
00:06:26,051 --> 00:06:27,141
no American citizen
168
00:06:27,141 --> 00:06:28,791
no duly elected member
169
00:06:28,791 --> 00:06:29,810
of our Congress.
170
00:06:29,810 --> 00:06:31,110
Not the Supreme Court.
171
00:06:31,110 --> 00:06:32,550
Not the Supreme Court?
172
00:06:32,550 --> 00:06:33,961
Not the Supreme Court.
173
00:06:33,961 --> 00:06:36,371
Not the Justice Department, not the CIA
174
00:06:36,371 --> 00:06:40,294
DIA, FBI, ATF, ATE, NBC
175
00:06:40,294 --> 00:06:43,463
Not even G-O-D
176
00:06:43,463 --> 00:06:45,113
knocks
177
00:06:45,606 --> 00:06:47,336
Well. how come the government isn't
178
00:06:47,336 --> 00:06:48,896
allowed inside its own building?
179
00:06:48,896 --> 00:06:49,636
Government?
180
00:06:49,636 --> 00:06:51,424
Pile, the Fed is a private bank,
181
00:06:51,424 --> 00:06:52,944
owned by private stockholders.
182
00:06:52,944 --> 00:06:55,194
Do not let the name "Federal" fool you,
183
00:06:55,194 --> 00:06:56,984
this place about as federal as
184
00:06:56,984 --> 00:06:58,124
"Federal Express"
185
00:06:58,317 --> 00:07:00,177
A-a private bank?
186
00:07:00,247 --> 00:07:01,717
But...private?!
187
00:07:02,070 --> 00:07:03,490
Ssh!
188
00:07:05,597 --> 00:07:07,557
Best to keep your voice down, Pile.
189
00:07:07,604 --> 00:07:09,564
phone rings
190
00:07:09,731 --> 00:07:11,131
This is Ethan Federal Reserve
191
00:07:11,209 --> 00:07:13,129
Hey Ethan! Bill here, First National.
192
00:07:13,408 --> 00:07:14,778
Hi there Bill, how are ya?
193
00:07:14,952 --> 00:07:17,502
Good, good. We're running a little low on money.
194
00:07:17,594 --> 00:07:19,014
No problem, how much you need?
195
00:07:19,054 --> 00:07:20,834
Oh, how does 20 million sound?
196
00:07:21,029 --> 00:07:21,729
What?
197
00:07:21,729 --> 00:07:22,429
slaps
198
00:07:22,457 --> 00:07:24,417
Excellent, we'll ship it over first thing
199
00:07:24,417 --> 00:07:25,127
tomorrow
200
00:07:25,127 --> 00:07:26,987
We-he can just call up the Fed
201
00:07:26,987 --> 00:07:28,557
and ask for more money
202
00:07:28,557 --> 00:07:30,167
and they give them whatever they want?
203
00:07:30,167 --> 00:07:30,917
No, Pile.
204
00:07:31,104 --> 00:07:33,224
The Fed don't give the banks money
205
00:07:33,224 --> 00:07:35,697
the Fed loans the banks money.
206
00:07:37,787 --> 00:07:39,387
The banks have to pay it back
207
00:07:39,387 --> 00:07:40,672
with interest. Now come on,
208
00:07:40,672 --> 00:07:41,412
time to go.
209
00:07:41,412 --> 00:07:43,896
Wait, wait, wait, I still don't understand
210
00:07:43,896 --> 00:07:45,727
Where does the Fed get their money?
211
00:07:45,727 --> 00:07:47,367
I mean, if they're a private bank.
212
00:07:47,367 --> 00:07:48,747
You said they're a private bank, right?
213
00:07:48,747 --> 00:07:50,797
Okay, so who puts money into the Fed bank?
214
00:07:52,058 --> 00:07:53,830
phone rings
215
00:07:54,187 --> 00:07:55,747
This is Mal, United States Mint.
216
00:07:55,885 --> 00:07:57,315
Hiya Mal, First National needs
217
00:07:57,315 --> 00:07:58,305
another 20 millies.
218
00:07:58,457 --> 00:08:00,317
We're already running the presses full
219
00:08:00,317 --> 00:08:01,417
steam here, Ethan.
220
00:08:01,417 --> 00:08:02,657
Gotta keep makin' loans
221
00:08:02,657 --> 00:08:04,047
gotta keep the money flowin'.
222
00:08:04,047 --> 00:08:05,997
Ahhh, alright, you're the Fed.
223
00:08:05,997 --> 00:08:07,527
Whatever you guys say.
224
00:08:07,527 --> 00:08:09,251
20 million more, by mornin'.
225
00:08:09,398 --> 00:08:10,998
fog horn blows
226
00:08:10,998 --> 00:08:12,518
But I don't get it...
227
00:08:12,518 --> 00:08:14,146
...what's so wrong about the Fed
228
00:08:14,146 --> 00:08:15,106
printing money?
229
00:08:15,413 --> 00:08:17,833
Because it's unconstitutional, Pile.
230
00:08:18,286 --> 00:08:20,696
Our treasury is supposed to create
231
00:08:20,696 --> 00:08:21,396
our money
232
00:08:21,396 --> 00:08:23,106
But now the Fed controls the printing
233
00:08:23,106 --> 00:08:23,915
of America's money.
234
00:08:24,121 --> 00:08:26,371
Nobody gets a friggin' dollar
235
00:08:26,371 --> 00:08:28,451
that the Fed didn't print.
236
00:08:28,598 --> 00:08:29,458
So?
237
00:08:29,543 --> 00:08:30,533
They print the money,
238
00:08:30,533 --> 00:08:31,983
then they loan it to the government,
239
00:08:31,983 --> 00:08:33,943
then they charge the government interest
240
00:08:33,943 --> 00:08:36,093
then the government taxes you to pay for it.
241
00:08:36,183 --> 00:08:37,323
Wake up, Pile!
242
00:08:37,436 --> 00:08:39,956
Gah, I don't see what the big deal is.
243
00:08:40,346 --> 00:08:41,866
You know, you're right, Pile.
244
00:08:41,866 --> 00:08:43,360
Wait, wait...I am?
245
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:44,060
Yeah.
246
00:08:44,060 --> 00:08:46,060
I forget how effective they are at keeping
247
00:08:46,060 --> 00:08:47,094
you ignorant.
248
00:08:47,094 --> 00:08:48,694
Well, that's okay...hey!
249
00:08:48,694 --> 00:08:49,804
I'm not ignorant!
250
00:08:49,804 --> 00:08:51,864
Do you even know what money is, Pile?
251
00:08:51,864 --> 00:08:52,604
claps
252
00:08:57,420 --> 00:09:00,240
In the long, long ago, when people bartered
253
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:01,801
they traded things they had
254
00:09:01,801 --> 00:09:02,951
for things they wanted
255
00:09:02,951 --> 00:09:04,781
I'll trade you my raspberries
256
00:09:04,781 --> 00:09:06,374
for that there pot pie
257
00:09:06,512 --> 00:09:07,902
I-I don't want your berries.
258
00:09:08,090 --> 00:09:09,240
Come on, Pile
259
00:09:09,633 --> 00:09:10,743
They're sweet berries.
260
00:09:10,743 --> 00:09:12,263
They're not sweet, they're old,
261
00:09:12,263 --> 00:09:13,399
and I don't like berries.
262
00:09:13,399 --> 00:09:14,574
Gimme that pot pie!
263
00:09:14,574 --> 00:09:15,004
No!
264
00:09:15,152 --> 00:09:17,574
As you can see, this bartering situation
265
00:09:17,574 --> 00:09:19,114
created some problems.
266
00:09:19,114 --> 00:09:21,597
Then one day, a goldsmith walked up and said
267
00:09:22,427 --> 00:09:24,611
Now, everybody thinks gold is valuable
268
00:09:24,611 --> 00:09:26,299
so why doesn't everybody trade gold
269
00:09:26,299 --> 00:09:27,591
for things they need.
270
00:09:27,591 --> 00:09:29,341
cheering
271
00:09:29,341 --> 00:09:30,913
The price was set for gold
272
00:09:30,913 --> 00:09:33,253
and now it was very easy to conduct commerce
273
00:09:33,253 --> 00:09:35,149
because people could trade gold for all
274
00:09:35,149 --> 00:09:37,216
the things they needed.
275
00:09:38,495 --> 00:09:41,625
Hartman, wow, look at all my gold!
276
00:09:41,625 --> 00:09:42,495
chuckling
277
00:09:42,495 --> 00:09:45,335
Hey, stop them! That's my gold!
278
00:09:45,335 --> 00:09:46,588
Damn thieves.
279
00:09:47,076 --> 00:09:47,896
Say there, Pile.
280
00:09:47,896 --> 00:09:49,847
Look, I've got a vault and some guards.
281
00:09:49,847 --> 00:09:51,751
I can keep your gold safe for you.
282
00:09:51,751 --> 00:09:53,264
For a small fee.
283
00:09:53,526 --> 00:09:55,106
Yeah, sure, that'd be awesome!
284
00:09:55,106 --> 00:09:56,009
You see, Pile.
285
00:09:56,009 --> 00:09:58,799
This is how the first bank made money.
286
00:09:59,157 --> 00:10:00,207
There you go, Pile.
287
00:10:00,207 --> 00:10:02,429
I.O.U 100 gold coins.
288
00:10:02,893 --> 00:10:04,343
Okay, great!
289
00:10:04,488 --> 00:10:06,508
Come back any time and redeem your gold
290
00:10:06,508 --> 00:10:07,418
when you want it.
291
00:10:07,418 --> 00:10:08,610
It'll be right here.
292
00:10:08,961 --> 00:10:10,171
In my vault.
293
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,350
Now you're holding the very first paper
294
00:10:13,350 --> 00:10:14,050
money, Pile.
295
00:10:14,705 --> 00:10:15,955
Wow, this is
296
00:10:15,955 --> 00:10:17,859
great, it all makes sense.
297
00:10:17,859 --> 00:10:19,789
Oh, that's right, it was good.
298
00:10:19,789 --> 00:10:22,249
And everybody started using I.O.Us
299
00:10:22,249 --> 00:10:24,639
because everybody knew the I.O.U was
300
00:10:24,639 --> 00:10:26,954
as good as gold.
301
00:10:27,504 --> 00:10:28,214
Wow,
302
00:10:28,214 --> 00:10:31,304
this candy is really a good price, one I.O.U
303
00:10:31,304 --> 00:10:33,346
I'm getting some more for later.
304
00:10:33,650 --> 00:10:34,410
Hey!
305
00:10:34,410 --> 00:10:36,540
Wait a minute, it was just one I.O.U
306
00:10:36,540 --> 00:10:38,699
10 I.O.Us for chocolate?!
307
00:10:38,699 --> 00:10:41,109
He can't just raise prices like that.
308
00:10:41,109 --> 00:10:43,165
Oh, the candy man can!
309
00:10:43,165 --> 00:10:47,015
sings Oh the candy man can!
310
00:10:47,015 --> 00:10:49,527
Wait, that is just freakin' wrong!
311
00:10:49,598 --> 00:10:51,378
It's called inflation, Pile.
312
00:10:51,378 --> 00:10:54,147
It makes your I.O.Us worth less and less
313
00:10:54,147 --> 00:10:56,050
until they are worth nothin'.
314
00:10:56,050 --> 00:10:57,780
Less bang for the buck,
315
00:10:57,780 --> 00:10:59,770
dollar ain't what it used to be.
316
00:11:00,488 --> 00:11:01,948
But I worked hard and I baked
317
00:11:01,948 --> 00:11:02,888
all those pot pies.
318
00:11:03,133 --> 00:11:05,063
Now I have to work harder to make less?
319
00:11:05,063 --> 00:11:06,013
That's not fair.
320
00:11:06,319 --> 00:11:08,049
Oh, if you think that's not fair...
321
00:11:08,049 --> 00:11:09,886
you're gonna love the next part.
322
00:11:11,773 --> 00:11:13,203
W-what's he doin'?
323
00:11:13,555 --> 00:11:15,355
How do banks make money, Pile?
324
00:11:15,533 --> 00:11:17,863
Uh, by making more loans?
325
00:11:17,897 --> 00:11:19,757
Oh, that's right. He's good.
326
00:11:19,952 --> 00:11:21,912
See, he prints more I.O.U.s without
327
00:11:21,912 --> 00:11:24,052
any more gold, loans 'em out for interest
328
00:11:24,052 --> 00:11:26,394
makes a pretty penny and nobody is the wiser
329
00:11:26,716 --> 00:11:27,566
Unless...
330
00:11:27,958 --> 00:11:30,648
Everybody wanted their gold back at the same time.
331
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:32,610
N-n-n-no, that's my gold.
332
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,000
Not anymore.
333
00:11:35,443 --> 00:11:37,743
What are you talking about?
334
00:11:37,808 --> 00:11:39,878
I'd like to redeem my I.O.U.s please.
335
00:11:40,588 --> 00:11:41,778
Thank ya very much.
336
00:11:42,235 --> 00:11:43,025
Hey!
337
00:11:43,025 --> 00:11:45,931
crowd yelling
338
00:11:45,931 --> 00:11:47,944
I want my gold back now!
339
00:11:48,370 --> 00:11:50,130
Thief! Thief!
340
00:11:50,238 --> 00:11:51,698
Gotta love the bank run
341
00:11:51,698 --> 00:11:53,208
Bringin' people together
342
00:11:53,208 --> 00:11:54,840
See they all found out he was stealin'
343
00:11:55,067 --> 00:11:57,977
made a run of the bank and as you can see
344
00:11:59,976 --> 00:12:01,446
There ain't no gold to get.
345
00:12:01,778 --> 00:12:02,688
Hartman!
346
00:12:02,766 --> 00:12:04,866
Don't worry, Pile. Back in these times
347
00:12:04,866 --> 00:12:06,995
vengeance will be yours.
348
00:12:07,136 --> 00:12:09,419
Three things in this world you don't do:
349
00:12:09,504 --> 00:12:11,524
Never mess with another man's woman,
350
00:12:11,524 --> 00:12:13,657
never mess with another man's ego, and
351
00:12:13,657 --> 00:12:15,079
most importantly,
352
00:12:15,079 --> 00:12:19,079
you never mess with another man's money.
353
00:12:21,402 --> 00:12:24,010
Else, the man will mess with you.
354
00:12:24,302 --> 00:12:25,472
My god!
355
00:12:25,472 --> 00:12:26,427
You hung him?
356
00:12:26,663 --> 00:12:27,793
Yes, Pile!
357
00:12:27,846 --> 00:12:30,556
Oh, we hung him. We hung him high.
358
00:12:30,630 --> 00:12:32,490
And do you know why?
359
00:12:32,824 --> 00:12:35,104
Well, because he was a thief?
360
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,380
Because, Pile,
361
00:12:36,593 --> 00:12:38,733
An evil invention was born
362
00:12:38,918 --> 00:12:41,758
Man discovered how to turn worthless paper...
363
00:12:42,405 --> 00:12:43,425
...into gold
364
00:12:44,230 --> 00:12:46,530
Thus was invented the ultimate machine
365
00:12:46,530 --> 00:12:48,280
to steal real money and enslave
366
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:49,961
all the nations on Earth.
367
00:12:54,980 --> 00:12:56,310
It's alive!
368
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:57,870
Oh now come on,
369
00:12:57,870 --> 00:12:59,106
you're just being dramatic
370
00:12:59,106 --> 00:13:00,661
I-I mean, I lost my house, but
371
00:13:00,661 --> 00:13:01,688
What is that?
372
00:13:01,688 --> 00:13:02,448
Explain.
373
00:13:02,448 --> 00:13:03,889
A nuclear power plant?
374
00:13:04,099 --> 00:13:06,659
Mhm, produces lots of electricity and
375
00:13:06,659 --> 00:13:08,879
little pollution. An invention for the good
376
00:13:08,879 --> 00:13:09,589
of humanity.
377
00:13:09,730 --> 00:13:12,020
Okay, but what's this have to do with...
378
00:13:12,020 --> 00:13:14,620
3...2... BOOM
379
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:16,020
Holy
380
00:13:16,020 --> 00:13:19,438
Atomic energy. A discover more powerful
381
00:13:19,438 --> 00:13:21,683
than anything man had yet conceived.
382
00:13:22,072 --> 00:13:23,332
It can be used for good...
383
00:13:23,888 --> 00:13:24,658
or
384
00:13:24,738 --> 00:13:25,488
evil.
385
00:13:26,075 --> 00:13:26,735
Now
386
00:13:26,895 --> 00:13:28,445
Unlike Einstien
387
00:13:28,445 --> 00:13:30,627
The goldsmith's discovery has been kept
388
00:13:30,627 --> 00:13:32,473
a closely guarded secret.
389
00:13:32,473 --> 00:13:34,389
It was never intended for you to see.
390
00:13:34,635 --> 00:13:35,846
This discovery is called
391
00:13:35,846 --> 00:13:37,940
fractional reserve banking
392
00:13:38,666 --> 00:13:41,026
In the wrong hands, it's more powerful
393
00:13:41,026 --> 00:13:42,296
than the nuclear bomb
394
00:13:42,296 --> 00:13:44,324
in its ability to completely and utterly
395
00:13:44,324 --> 00:13:47,674
destroy a nation who is subjected to its perversion.
396
00:13:48,746 --> 00:13:51,426
No, no, no, no, no, no.
397
00:13:51,426 --> 00:13:54,056
It is time we stop this evil secret
398
00:13:54,056 --> 00:13:55,395
and the men behind it.
399
00:13:55,395 --> 00:13:56,595
You're being ridiculous.
400
00:13:56,595 --> 00:13:59,059
Before America is destroyed forever.
401
00:13:59,059 --> 00:14:00,664
Believe it, Pile.
402
00:14:00,664 --> 00:14:03,550
No, no, no, I just want my dog back.
403
00:14:03,550 --> 00:14:05,980
Damn it, that's it, I give up.
404
00:14:06,278 --> 00:14:07,748
Let them live in chains.
405
00:14:09,272 --> 00:14:10,602
No, Hartman.
406
00:14:10,983 --> 00:14:13,383
The tree of liberty must be refreshed
407
00:14:13,383 --> 00:14:15,123
from time to time with the blood
408
00:14:15,123 --> 00:14:16,646
of patriots and tyrants.
409
00:14:17,054 --> 00:14:18,914
Thomas Jefferson?
410
00:14:19,146 --> 00:14:21,916
Mr. President, how do I get him to understand?
411
00:14:22,278 --> 00:14:25,428
As we did, son. Remain vigilant.
412
00:14:25,836 --> 00:14:27,586
Too many have hidden the truth
413
00:14:27,586 --> 00:14:29,689
and the light of our liberty dims
414
00:14:29,689 --> 00:14:30,707
with every passing day.
415
00:14:31,781 --> 00:14:32,491
Quickly,
416
00:14:32,491 --> 00:14:33,621
Take my horse.
417
00:14:33,621 --> 00:14:34,381
Show him
418
00:14:35,442 --> 00:14:36,682
Wait, show me what?
419
00:14:36,748 --> 00:14:37,688
Where are we going?
420
00:14:37,784 --> 00:14:38,814
horse neighs
421
00:14:38,814 --> 00:14:40,697
Hey, stallion of liber-tie
422
00:14:40,697 --> 00:14:43,930
Ride hard the hoary wind.
423
00:14:44,834 --> 00:14:46,504
Oh, where are we?
424
00:14:47,019 --> 00:14:48,139
Battle of Waterloo
425
00:14:48,139 --> 00:14:49,944
Hold on, we gotta get through.
426
00:14:51,053 --> 00:14:53,462
A money machine! There it is!
427
00:14:54,579 --> 00:14:56,109
Hey, is that the same people?
428
00:14:56,148 --> 00:14:58,040
Rich banker men from Germany flying
429
00:14:58,040 --> 00:14:59,879
under the banner of the red shield.
430
00:14:59,879 --> 00:15:01,789
They financed both sides of the war.
431
00:15:01,870 --> 00:15:02,940
We must hurry!
432
00:15:04,566 --> 00:15:06,507
That's him! The red shield courier.
433
00:15:06,507 --> 00:15:07,225
Shoot him!
434
00:15:07,225 --> 00:15:09,274
No! I'm not shootin' anyone.
435
00:15:09,274 --> 00:15:10,471
Damn it, Pile!
436
00:15:10,471 --> 00:15:11,290
What?
437
00:15:11,290 --> 00:15:12,566
He beat everyone back
438
00:15:12,566 --> 00:15:13,874
with the news of the war
439
00:15:13,874 --> 00:15:16,102
and told England that Napoleon won.
440
00:15:16,102 --> 00:15:17,985
The red shield bankers in London
441
00:15:17,985 --> 00:15:19,747
pretended that England was doomed
442
00:15:19,747 --> 00:15:22,443
and started selling their English stocks.
443
00:15:22,587 --> 00:15:24,407
The English went into a selling frenzy
444
00:15:24,407 --> 00:15:26,352
to get rid of worthless English money.
445
00:15:26,465 --> 00:15:28,806
But, the English won? Right?
446
00:15:28,903 --> 00:15:30,133
Of course they won,
447
00:15:30,388 --> 00:15:32,538
but it was a trick by red shield
448
00:15:32,538 --> 00:15:34,425
they waited until the stocks plummeted
449
00:15:34,425 --> 00:15:35,885
to pennies and then bought
450
00:15:35,885 --> 00:15:37,596
England back for nearly nothing.
451
00:15:37,596 --> 00:15:38,346
What?!
452
00:15:38,346 --> 00:15:40,419
They did that? How?
453
00:15:40,511 --> 00:15:42,441
When the English leaders found out they
454
00:15:42,441 --> 00:15:44,461
had no choice but to give themselves over
455
00:15:44,461 --> 00:15:45,616
to the red shield.
456
00:15:45,665 --> 00:15:47,649
Their money was gone, and they were slaves
457
00:15:47,649 --> 00:15:49,448
to the red shield war debt.
458
00:15:50,125 --> 00:15:51,745
Since that time, the English have
459
00:15:51,745 --> 00:15:53,345
been payin' their national taxes
460
00:15:53,345 --> 00:15:55,670
directly to the red shield private bankers
461
00:15:55,670 --> 00:15:58,256
and people have no idea.
462
00:15:58,585 --> 00:16:00,465
But the bankers bragged about what they did
463
00:16:00,465 --> 00:16:03,851
to us, laughing at us all the way to the bank.
464
00:16:04,453 --> 00:16:06,873
Why, it's the best business I've ever done.
465
00:16:06,976 --> 00:16:08,676
If I can control a nation's wealth,
466
00:16:08,676 --> 00:16:10,895
I care not who makes its laws.
467
00:16:13,391 --> 00:16:16,244
Oh, is this what Jefferson wanted to show me?
468
00:16:16,345 --> 00:16:17,355
No, Pile,
469
00:16:17,950 --> 00:16:19,033
Look....
470
00:16:20,415 --> 00:16:22,753
They're in America, too?!
471
00:16:23,003 --> 00:16:25,233
The red shield banks are here, Pile.
472
00:16:25,616 --> 00:16:28,262
Seeking a way to conquer our American dream.
473
00:16:28,262 --> 00:16:29,697
A dream you have, Pile.
474
00:16:29,697 --> 00:16:32,391
A dream...of free men.
475
00:16:32,958 --> 00:16:34,745
They tried to take over our country
476
00:16:34,745 --> 00:16:36,485
many times and failed because
477
00:16:36,485 --> 00:16:38,550
Jefferson and the patriots vowed to stop
478
00:16:38,550 --> 00:16:40,610
the evil tyrants at all costs.
479
00:16:44,023 --> 00:16:46,057
By authority of eternal God,
480
00:16:46,057 --> 00:16:48,621
he would not let the bankers win here.
481
00:16:49,050 --> 00:16:51,051
To preserve our independance,
482
00:16:51,051 --> 00:16:52,670
we must not let our rulers
483
00:16:52,670 --> 00:16:54,510
load us with perpetual debt.
484
00:16:54,771 --> 00:16:56,291
We must make our choice between
485
00:16:56,291 --> 00:16:59,690
economy and liberty, or perfusion and servitude
486
00:17:00,096 --> 00:17:01,016
Wow!
487
00:17:01,230 --> 00:17:03,461
I place economy among the first
488
00:17:03,461 --> 00:17:06,021
and most important of Republican virtues.
489
00:17:06,021 --> 00:17:08,231
and public debt is the greatest of the
490
00:17:08,231 --> 00:17:09,581
dangers to be feared.
491
00:17:09,813 --> 00:17:11,653
It is incumbent upon every generation
492
00:17:11,653 --> 00:17:14,533
to pay its own debts as it goes.
493
00:17:14,902 --> 00:17:17,089
We must have a central bank to secure
494
00:17:17,089 --> 00:17:18,815
this country's finances!
495
00:17:19,106 --> 00:17:21,686
If the American people ever allow
496
00:17:21,686 --> 00:17:24,040
private banks to control the issue
497
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,684
of their money, first by inflation
498
00:17:26,684 --> 00:17:28,418
and then by deflation,
499
00:17:28,418 --> 00:17:31,378
the banks and corporations that will grow
500
00:17:31,378 --> 00:17:33,258
up around them will deprive the people
501
00:17:33,258 --> 00:17:35,718
of their property, until, their children
502
00:17:35,718 --> 00:17:38,287
will wake up homeless on the very continent
503
00:17:38,287 --> 00:17:39,947
their fathers conquered.
504
00:17:40,237 --> 00:17:41,927
Jefferson, you're mad!
505
00:17:42,103 --> 00:17:44,293
This country will have a central bank!
506
00:17:44,293 --> 00:17:45,190
crowd arguing
507
00:17:45,190 --> 00:17:46,035
Who's that?
508
00:17:46,035 --> 00:17:48,488
America's first secretary of treasury.
509
00:17:48,488 --> 00:17:50,522
Alexander Hamilton?
510
00:17:50,522 --> 00:17:51,672
Not for long.
511
00:17:51,672 --> 00:17:52,948
Aaron Burr
512
00:17:52,948 --> 00:17:54,971
Thomas Jefferson's vice president,
513
00:17:55,059 --> 00:17:56,799
They didn't take too kindly to our
514
00:17:56,799 --> 00:17:58,122
first sec treasury.
515
00:17:58,276 --> 00:17:59,506
gunshot
516
00:17:59,897 --> 00:18:01,387
Sweet shot, Burr.
517
00:18:02,398 --> 00:18:04,194
The first attempt of the central bank
518
00:18:04,194 --> 00:18:06,804
only lasted twenty years and we shut it down.
519
00:18:06,890 --> 00:18:08,454
But the bankers tried again
520
00:18:08,454 --> 00:18:09,703
against Ol' Hickory.
521
00:18:09,737 --> 00:18:11,712
President Andrew Jackson.
522
00:18:11,949 --> 00:18:15,149
You are a den of vipers and thieves.
523
00:18:15,428 --> 00:18:17,438
I intend to route you out,
524
00:18:17,611 --> 00:18:21,611
and by the eternal God, I will route you out.
525
00:18:21,939 --> 00:18:24,606
After surviving an assassination attempt,
526
00:18:24,606 --> 00:18:28,330
Jackson finally defeated the bank in 1836.
527
00:18:28,481 --> 00:18:30,071
When asked what was the greatest
528
00:18:30,071 --> 00:18:32,600
accomplishment in his life, Ol' Hickory replied
529
00:18:32,865 --> 00:18:34,970
I killed the banks.
530
00:18:36,780 --> 00:18:39,480
And those were his last words
531
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,098
I killed the bank.
532
00:18:42,347 --> 00:18:45,222
And, with real money backed with real gold,
533
00:18:45,351 --> 00:18:47,271
Our country experienced the greatest
534
00:18:47,271 --> 00:18:48,891
boom in any nation's history.
535
00:18:48,891 --> 00:18:51,411
Aw, it was beautiful, Pile.
536
00:18:51,449 --> 00:18:52,781
But the bankers, greedy for
537
00:18:52,781 --> 00:18:53,931
more power and wealth
538
00:18:53,931 --> 00:18:56,919
were concocting their most ambitious plan yet
539
00:18:56,919 --> 00:18:58,849
to once and for all take control
540
00:18:58,849 --> 00:19:01,497
of the finances of the United States.
541
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,520
In 1910, a secret meeting was held
542
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:05,860
at a J.P. Morgan estate
543
00:19:05,860 --> 00:19:08,237
on Jekyll Island off the coast of Georgia
544
00:19:08,593 --> 00:19:10,433
This meeting was so secretive,
545
00:19:10,433 --> 00:19:12,313
so concealed from government
546
00:19:12,313 --> 00:19:13,313
and public knowledge,
547
00:19:13,469 --> 00:19:16,689
that the ten attendees used code names.
548
00:19:17,357 --> 00:19:19,117
clears throat noisily
549
00:19:19,507 --> 00:19:21,877
I am clearly the richest man, so
550
00:19:21,877 --> 00:19:23,587
I should be the one to run the
551
00:19:23,587 --> 00:19:25,474
super secret central bank.
552
00:19:25,537 --> 00:19:27,907
I own all the oil in America, I'm clearly
553
00:19:27,907 --> 00:19:30,284
richer than you'll ever be, Hula Girl.
554
00:19:30,432 --> 00:19:32,462
I should run the super secret central bank.
555
00:19:32,519 --> 00:19:35,789
You're nothing compared to me, Lube Job.
556
00:19:35,917 --> 00:19:37,850
I shall run the secret bank.
557
00:19:38,110 --> 00:19:39,950
deep, booming voice Silence!
558
00:19:40,735 --> 00:19:42,085
Supreme Master Leader,
559
00:19:42,403 --> 00:19:44,163
I didn't know you were gonna be here.
560
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:45,150
I'm not,
561
00:19:45,222 --> 00:19:46,462
neither are you.
562
00:19:46,662 --> 00:19:47,572
Dumbass.
563
00:19:47,644 --> 00:19:51,264
Oh yeah, right, right. He's so smart.
564
00:19:52,468 --> 00:19:54,728
None of you shall run the bank.
565
00:19:54,889 --> 00:19:56,419
We have failed in the past
566
00:19:56,429 --> 00:19:57,689
because of openness,
567
00:19:57,724 --> 00:20:00,784
This time the key to success is secrecy.
568
00:20:00,848 --> 00:20:04,598
The people must believe that they run the bank.
569
00:20:04,636 --> 00:20:06,776
Yes, brilliant!
570
00:20:06,799 --> 00:20:09,471
A sneak attack. What's the plan?
571
00:20:09,907 --> 00:20:11,282
We first create panic,
572
00:20:11,282 --> 00:20:13,532
and then we show them the solution:
573
00:20:13,654 --> 00:20:16,268
With our man in office and well-planned timing,
574
00:20:16,268 --> 00:20:18,160
we will have our central bank.
575
00:20:18,208 --> 00:20:20,641
And so the people think it is theirs,
576
00:20:20,714 --> 00:20:22,592
We shall christen it Federal.
577
00:20:22,592 --> 00:20:24,914
The Federal Reserve.
578
00:20:24,942 --> 00:20:27,441
All laugh evilly
579
00:20:31,152 --> 00:20:34,860
They struck on December 23rd, 1913.
580
00:20:35,199 --> 00:20:37,089
When most of our Congress were at home
581
00:20:37,089 --> 00:20:39,018
eating fruitcake, these bastards
582
00:20:39,018 --> 00:20:40,509
I mean, bankers,
583
00:20:40,514 --> 00:20:42,374
presented their treasonous act to their
584
00:20:42,374 --> 00:20:44,904
newly elected accomplice, Woodrow Wilson.
585
00:20:45,078 --> 00:20:47,159
Who had fortuitously already agreed
586
00:20:47,159 --> 00:20:49,783
to sign it before he was even elected.
587
00:20:50,107 --> 00:20:51,027
Wait,
588
00:20:51,267 --> 00:20:52,427
the I.R.S.?
589
00:20:52,654 --> 00:20:54,584
I thought we always had the I.R.S.?
590
00:20:54,908 --> 00:20:55,908
No, Pile.
591
00:20:56,315 --> 00:20:57,505
They did this,
592
00:20:57,621 --> 00:20:58,981
to us, too.
593
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,820
The Fed now has the exclusive power
594
00:21:01,820 --> 00:21:03,799
to print America's money.
595
00:21:03,976 --> 00:21:06,252
They loan this money to our banks
596
00:21:06,252 --> 00:21:08,219
and our government at interest,
597
00:21:08,219 --> 00:21:10,630
putting immediate debt on our own money,
598
00:21:10,630 --> 00:21:13,517
printing more and more so each dollar they
599
00:21:13,517 --> 00:21:17,517
print becomes worth less than the one before.
600
00:21:22,195 --> 00:21:24,266
ominously Merry. Christmas.
601
00:21:27,154 --> 00:21:28,602
What in the hell is that?
602
00:21:29,569 --> 00:21:32,268
That, Pile, is how our government now must
603
00:21:32,268 --> 00:21:34,137
pay back these debts to the Fed
604
00:21:34,137 --> 00:21:37,237
Your taxes do not go to your government.
605
00:21:37,237 --> 00:21:38,197
They don't?
606
00:21:38,197 --> 00:21:42,197
It's the greatest theft in human history.
607
00:21:42,197 --> 00:21:43,077
But...
608
00:21:43,077 --> 00:21:45,627
Okay, I-I mean, I sorta get what you're saying.
609
00:21:45,627 --> 00:21:48,172
but it's all so confusing, and really, Hartman,
610
00:21:48,172 --> 00:21:50,138
I don't see how it affects me at all.
611
00:21:50,138 --> 00:21:51,148
If I had more money,
612
00:21:51,148 --> 00:21:52,351
none of this would have happened.
613
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:53,660
Hartman?
614
00:21:59,010 --> 00:22:01,690
1955, wow, what're we doin' here?
615
00:22:01,690 --> 00:22:03,070
Oh, a little bit of shoppin'
616
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:06,473
Here, hold this. Gallon of gas? 23 cents.
617
00:22:07,049 --> 00:22:08,199
Postage stamp?
618
00:22:08,199 --> 00:22:08,989
3 cents.
619
00:22:09,311 --> 00:22:11,781
Ounce of gold, $35.
620
00:22:12,165 --> 00:22:14,442
Hot baby? Priceless.
621
00:22:14,822 --> 00:22:15,902
Best be gettin' back.
622
00:22:16,714 --> 00:22:19,009
Hey Hartman! I need my car, man!
623
00:22:19,837 --> 00:22:21,457
Oh, was that Michael J....
624
00:22:21,457 --> 00:22:23,377
Yeah, he'll be fine.
625
00:22:26,202 --> 00:22:27,112
Now Pile,
626
00:22:27,112 --> 00:22:28,922
Would you agree that you have the same
627
00:22:28,922 --> 00:22:31,319
exact things you had in 1955?
628
00:22:31,557 --> 00:22:32,927
Yeah. One stamp,
629
00:22:32,927 --> 00:22:35,839
one gallon of gas, one ounce of gold, and one home.
630
00:22:38,079 --> 00:22:38,912
Wow!
631
00:22:38,912 --> 00:22:40,882
We just made a lot of money.
632
00:22:40,882 --> 00:22:42,360
Grab, grab, grab, grab.
633
00:22:42,384 --> 00:22:43,094
Hey!
634
00:22:44,453 --> 00:22:45,820
Gotta pay your taxes.
635
00:22:45,820 --> 00:22:48,785
But it's nice to have made all that money.
636
00:22:48,785 --> 00:22:50,925
Wait! That isn't fair.
637
00:22:50,925 --> 00:22:52,423
Now I actually have less money,
638
00:22:52,423 --> 00:22:54,703
I can't even go buy the things I just sold.
639
00:22:55,064 --> 00:22:58,414
The IRS and the Fed's inflation work together
640
00:22:58,414 --> 00:23:00,597
Pile, they aren't just taxing gain,
641
00:23:00,597 --> 00:23:02,544
They are taxing their inflation.
642
00:23:02,544 --> 00:23:06,010
You are no richer than you were in 1955,
643
00:23:06,010 --> 00:23:08,660
Now does that sound fair or American to you?
644
00:23:08,660 --> 00:23:10,822
Yeah, but I mean, who doesn't hate taxes?
645
00:23:10,822 --> 00:23:12,428
I hate the I.R.S. anyway.
646
00:23:12,428 --> 00:23:16,038
Pile, the higher they make the inflation,
647
00:23:16,038 --> 00:23:18,264
the more of your money they take.
648
00:23:18,264 --> 00:23:19,604
It's thievery.
649
00:23:19,608 --> 00:23:21,858
You are not paying taxes on any more,
650
00:23:21,858 --> 00:23:23,871
you are paying taxes on the same.
651
00:23:23,871 --> 00:23:26,389
And now you have less.
652
00:23:26,389 --> 00:23:28,169
They take our property away
653
00:23:28,169 --> 00:23:29,799
right in front of our eyes.
654
00:23:29,799 --> 00:23:31,743
Just like Thomas Jefferson said they would.
655
00:23:34,175 --> 00:23:35,695
What's that?!
656
00:23:35,695 --> 00:23:39,611
Oh, they found us! Quick, my sword.
657
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:40,750
What sword?!
658
00:23:41,868 --> 00:23:43,948
We don't need your bankin' machine!
659
00:23:43,948 --> 00:23:47,288
I condemn you to die, damn it, die!
660
00:23:47,587 --> 00:23:49,820
Pile! Throw that key bogey off my nine,
661
00:23:49,820 --> 00:23:51,343
Take 'em at his knees!
662
00:24:00,631 --> 00:24:02,631
But we are opposed around the world
663
00:24:03,313 --> 00:24:06,075
By a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy
664
00:24:06,846 --> 00:24:09,246
That relies primarily on covet means.
665
00:24:10,094 --> 00:24:12,124
For expanding its sphere of influence.
666
00:24:12,436 --> 00:24:13,356
What's happening?
667
00:24:13,532 --> 00:24:14,412
Where am I?
668
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,530
I believe, perhaps, you understand now, Pile.
669
00:24:17,820 --> 00:24:19,250
But you are...afraid.
670
00:24:19,683 --> 00:24:20,423
JFK
671
00:24:20,573 --> 00:24:21,303
Hartman!
672
00:24:21,303 --> 00:24:23,530
What does this have to do with my house and my dog?
673
00:24:23,584 --> 00:24:26,154
Okay, that's enough! I wanna go home now.
674
00:24:26,301 --> 00:24:29,751
This is the last president to stand up to the Fed.
675
00:24:29,970 --> 00:24:31,470
You must see.
676
00:24:31,631 --> 00:24:33,891
On June 4th, 1963
677
00:24:34,027 --> 00:24:38,614
President Kennedy signed executive order 11110.
678
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,932
This executive order empowered the US treasury
679
00:24:41,932 --> 00:24:44,133
to issue real money without the Fed.
680
00:24:44,361 --> 00:24:45,391
It would have worked.
681
00:24:46,236 --> 00:24:47,816
Kennedy's plan to dismantle the
682
00:24:47,816 --> 00:24:49,789
Federal Reserve machine had begun.
683
00:24:50,821 --> 00:24:51,821
Six months later...
684
00:24:52,252 --> 00:24:54,172
John F. Kennedy went to Dallas...
685
00:24:54,172 --> 00:24:55,542
...and never returned.
686
00:24:56,581 --> 00:24:57,951
No. Way.
687
00:24:57,951 --> 00:24:59,662
No way they could do that.
688
00:24:59,662 --> 00:25:01,776
The new president, Lyndon Johnson,
689
00:25:01,776 --> 00:25:03,466
threw out Kennedy's order.
690
00:25:03,678 --> 00:25:06,049
And since JFK, no president has dared
691
00:25:06,049 --> 00:25:07,720
confront the secret powers
692
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,831
behind the Federal reserve.
693
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,880
They consolidate bigger and bigger banks.
694
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:14,672
Print more and more money,
695
00:25:14,672 --> 00:25:16,187
accountable to no one.
696
00:25:16,187 --> 00:25:18,095
Decimating our nation's wealth
697
00:25:18,095 --> 00:25:19,977
for the benefit of a few.
698
00:25:20,655 --> 00:25:22,445
Why? Why do this?
699
00:25:22,445 --> 00:25:25,140
If they hurt us, it hurts the global bankers too.
700
00:25:25,140 --> 00:25:26,347
No, Pile.
701
00:25:26,347 --> 00:25:31,218
They are protected. They. Are too big to fail.
702
00:25:32,358 --> 00:25:34,918
But I'm not.
703
00:25:35,199 --> 00:25:37,399
Those sons of bitches!
704
00:25:37,812 --> 00:25:40,952
Hm. Sons of bitches all.
705
00:25:47,089 --> 00:25:48,342
The day was cold.
706
00:25:50,322 --> 00:25:52,372
The wind sharp and strong.
707
00:25:55,044 --> 00:25:56,814
But we were determined.
708
00:25:57,298 --> 00:25:58,978
The bankers and their parasites
709
00:25:58,978 --> 00:26:00,870
had us vastly outnumbered.
710
00:26:00,991 --> 00:26:03,054
But their hubris made them weak.
711
00:26:03,054 --> 00:26:04,586
cackling maniacally
712
00:26:04,903 --> 00:26:05,968
Not like us.
713
00:26:06,483 --> 00:26:07,402
dog wimpering
714
00:26:07,544 --> 00:26:09,226
Not like this band of immortals
715
00:26:09,226 --> 00:26:10,570
we have assembled.
716
00:26:11,118 --> 00:26:13,258
We have come to take back our...
717
00:26:13,681 --> 00:26:15,860
Hartman? Is that?
718
00:26:16,568 --> 00:26:18,297
My dog.
719
00:26:18,839 --> 00:26:20,492
Oh sh*t.
720
00:26:21,421 --> 00:26:23,094
whip snapsdog wimpers
721
00:26:23,094 --> 00:26:24,423
Then the inevitable.
722
00:26:24,713 --> 00:26:26,490
The money kings could ignore us
723
00:26:26,490 --> 00:26:28,113
no longer.
724
00:26:28,113 --> 00:26:29,976
They sent an emissary.
725
00:26:30,655 --> 00:26:32,435
A cog in the machine of greed
726
00:26:32,435 --> 00:26:34,232
to bring about our submission.
727
00:26:35,820 --> 00:26:37,729
Hank. Paulson.
728
00:26:37,729 --> 00:26:40,130
Hartman. This is blasphemy.
729
00:26:40,592 --> 00:26:42,562
We own the corners of the Earth.
730
00:26:42,876 --> 00:26:44,766
It is futile to challenge us.
731
00:26:45,853 --> 00:26:48,323
Oh I've seen that look before.
732
00:26:48,569 --> 00:26:51,409
That of a predator taking in the scent of its prey.
733
00:26:51,861 --> 00:26:53,361
Bold. Fearless.
734
00:26:53,708 --> 00:26:55,968
The look of a free man.
735
00:26:57,802 --> 00:26:59,452
You have come far, Hartman.
736
00:26:59,847 --> 00:27:01,217
Farther than most.
737
00:27:01,450 --> 00:27:03,540
Be smart now. Join us.
738
00:27:03,943 --> 00:27:05,333
We will bring you money.
739
00:27:05,423 --> 00:27:06,293
Power.
740
00:27:06,459 --> 00:27:07,819
Everything you want.
741
00:27:07,985 --> 00:27:11,985
You can be one of us. If you will kneel.
742
00:27:24,442 --> 00:27:26,712
choir vocalizing
743
00:27:58,930 --> 00:27:59,820
Madman.
744
00:27:59,992 --> 00:28:01,272
You're a madman.
745
00:28:02,523 --> 00:28:04,393
We're offering you everything.
746
00:28:04,690 --> 00:28:06,340
What do you think this is?
747
00:28:11,845 --> 00:28:14,875
This. Is. AMERICA.
748
00:28:18,641 --> 00:28:22,641
rock music
