Exodus from Europe

Contrary to what you are taught in the government schools today, those that came here from Europe didn’t come because of religious prosecution.  The Pilgrims did came here because they were being abused for praying kneeling down instead of standing up but that was an exception.  The reason for the exodus from Europe was socialism.  It wasn’t called socialism yet, but that is what it was just the same.  It didn’t matter how hard you worked there, unless you were attached to the ruling class, you could not get ahead.
In ROOTS OF CAPITALISM, historian John Chamberlin writes that in France:
“It took more than two thousand pages to print the rules established for textile industry between 1666 and 1730.  Weavers had to negotiate with the government for four years in order to obtain permission to introduce “blackwarp” into their fabrics.  The effect of the regulations was to freeze French textile production at a certain level, though smuggling and evasion of manufacturing regulations did elleviate the situation somewhat.  The violation of the rules often brought terrible penalties:  for breaking regulations governing printed calicoes, some 16,000 people were either executed or killed in armed brushes with government agents.”

Do you think for even one minute that we wanted to paint our blank canvas with the broad stroke of sicialism or any other form of regulations but the rule of Common Law?
We wanted to, number one, protect ourselves from a government, any government.  The best way to ensure that was to limit the amount of money it could take into its coffers. This is what was meant by our fore fathers when they said “money is the root of all evil,” IN THE HANDS OF A GOVERNMENT THAT IS.  We are being taken down financially.

If you want to track our demise, follow the coins.  We started out with gold and silver coins, then we went to just silver and in 1965 we no longer held coins.  Coins have to have some amount of precious metal in them to be called coins.  What we have left is tokens.  We have just become like any other civilization that has ever existed here on planet Earth.
