Abraham Lincoln -IRS- April 15

It’s Moonday once again and it’s a beautiful day! Today we honor the day President
Abraham Lincoln was killed and we pay homage to the Internal Revenue Service. Do you think these two events may be connected? Mr. Lincoln was opposed to the idea of a central bank and didn’t trust banking institutions. At one time he printed money for the country and call them “Greenbacks” and this did not make the banking industry very happy, shall we say they were angry? President John F. Kennedy attempted to put the power of the purse back in the government and had an untimely demise. Who did he make angry?

When the (federal) reserve bank was created in 1913 by the powerful bankers, the IRS was created at the same time. The reserve bank required the government to operate with a deficient (debt) and the IRS was created to help pay off that debt with money taken from the wages of labor. They had succeeded in finally getting a central bank in America and a way to pay the owners of the debt interest payments every year.  You see why Mr. Lincoln didn’t trust banking institutions. They are slicker than a greased pig and will devise many ways to get money from the people. The illusion worked and it’s still working today. Many Americans believe that this private reserve bank is a creature of the Federal Government! Not! President Woodrow Wilson signed this legislation to satisfy a promise he made to the banking industry to get elected President. Later, he admitted that it was a serious mistake and that he had sold the future of Americans and their financial welfare down the tube. He was remorseful and disappointed in himself.

So what’s the connection between April 15 being designated as the date to collect money from the people or give some back where they have taken too much during the year? Maybe it’s the celebration of the banking institutions win over Mr. Lincoln and his bothersome “Greenbacks” and their war with him to have a central bank. It’s a real cruel joke to desecrate the date of Mr. Lincoln’s death. The fight for a central private bank never stopped after Mr. Lincoln’s death. 50 years later, they were successful! The rest is history.

Mr. Lincoln’s declaration that America was a government by the people and for the people that would not perish from the earth was well intended but if the government has no control over the purse it is powerless to be an instrument of the people.  The reserve bank, the IRS (power of the purse) and major corporations are the power behind the throne of government and the people have become mere cannon fodder. The federal employees in the Treasury Department have not held a real job since 1913.

Mr. Lincoln, I honor the day of your death today and I am grateful for the ideas you shared with us about human freedom. You said, “No man is good enough to govern another man without his consent…there can be no moral right of one man making a slave of the other.”  It is sad but true, the degrees of enslavement are many and that includes the human mind, and that man will always find ways to exploit the labor of another man through various schemes and subterfuge if it’s about making more money.

The struggle for human freedom is unending and ruthless as long as the true nature of man is to exploit, take, and control the destiny of others.  It’s like watching a beautiful woman in shorts, long hair flowing in the wind, walking  down the side walk oblivious to all, it brings a pleasurable smile to our face, the struggle for human freedom will always be a feeling of awesomeness, a thing of beauty, leaving sighs of wow in our heads. The human soul always longs to be free.

Is there a connection? In my opinion there is a connection but can’t be proven. Who cares anyway! Enjoy the beautiful day!

Peace!
