Understanding THIS is ESSENTIAL!

Understanding the Federal Reserve is the foundation essential for understanding virtually EVERYTHING ELSE. Once it is understood that the people who own the Federal Reserve (the same ones who own the international Monetary Fund and World Bank) own and control about three-quarters of the wealth of the planet, then it is easier to understand that ALL POWER - - economic, political and military - - is owned and controlled directly or indirectly by the same people.

It's also easier to understand that they "select" and "anoint" ALL our presidents and heads of state worldwide - - and "eliminate" those who don't follow instructions - - in advance, and persuade us that WE dum bassed "useless eaters" (that's what they call us) "elected" them. People this wealthy wouldn't dream of permitting their financial futures to be adversely influenced by independent heads of state (who might, Heaven forbid, be tempted to look out for the people from whom the Fed is committed to eventually draining all the property and fruits of their labor). Ninety-five percent of the 545 people who appear to run the United States Government (President, Congress, and nine Supreme Court Justices) are tightly controlled by the owners of the Federal Reserve.

Those who mistakenly believe the propaganda that the BANKS are failing, simply have no clue what is taking place. Here at the beginning of 2009, we stand on the threshold of the greatest mass transfer of property and wealth since this system was put into place in 1913, greater than that which transpired during the period from 1929 to 1939 (Great Depression) when banks took title to homes, farms and businesses all across the country, and sucked massive amounts of money right out of the public's pocketbooks. We're about to witness the final stages of the move to centralized one-world RULE (they'll call it "governance") under their absolute control.

Some have heard this delivery before, but it never hurts to hear it again. I've listened to it at least half a dozen times. It's probably the most awesome (fear-filled) and best-documented presentation you'll likely hear this year for a long time to come.

Reading the Signs Worse Than Expected

by Fred Marshall Jr.
November 21, 2008

It's a good bet that 30% of the articles I've written over the past 10-12 years are lost for all time because I haven't been diligent in archiving them or even always keeping master copies. I write when something prompts me to write, or I feel a need to inform others of something I suspect the majority doesn't know, or I get an idea I think's worth sharing. So, when I refer to something I've said earlier, I do it from memory, not from going back and finding when and where I previously stated something.

That said, I recall that several months back the signs led me to suggest the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) would likely fall as low as 7,000. Many laughed. The term "conspiracy theorist" was bandied about. The signs now lead me to project the DJIA may well drop to 6,000 before spring, maybe even before Christmas. Things are going to hell in a battered hand basket faster than I had expected, frankly faster than even most of the so-called experts have predicted. But I don't see any way to prevent such a fall. So many aspects of the economy are so intricately interwoven that when one thing falls it knocks down three or four or more other nearby or related things. It's almost like an elephant in a china store.

When new housing starts slow significantly, no one can expect carpet or paint sales to pick up. When a national chain closes 50 stores and scrubs 5,000 jobs, the unemployment rate doesn't go down, it goes up. So, what happens when a large number of the national brands that are household words go belly-up....when the leading auto makers are losing their hineys....when banks long thought to be rock-solid are dropping like flies.... when the companies which are staying afloat have their phones answered in New Delhi, India, because they aren't employing many Americans....when stocks worth $100,000 a year ago are worth $5,000 today....when defaults on auto loans are up 40%....when twice as many home mortgages are 90 days past due as at this time a year ago....when the public learns the $700 billion in bailout money isn't going to be used for the purposes its promoters promised it would....when consumer and investor confidence is in the toilet....when word spreads that a new presumed president-elect may not even be a natural-born citizen (and thus not ELIGIBLE to run, let alone serve)....when that same presumed president-elect has promised sweeping changes, yet is progressively announcing appointments of some of the very people who were up to their ears participating heavily in creating the financial crisis we face....when people can hardly find anything positive to talk about? I'll tell you what happens, the stock market TANKS. Start getting used to seeing numbers beginning with sevens and then sixes.

If you don't already have your money out of banking institutions now, you don't have many days left to get it out, and may not even be able to get it out Monday. U.S. minted gold coin (purity known) is hard to come by now, though some quantities can still be purchased directly from the mint. The urgent thing right now is to have access to your MONEY. The dollar shouldn't totally collapse for a while yet.

Eighteen months ago I advised a lady my age to get completely out of the stock market, but she insisted she was in for the long haul, her retirement security was spread in "diversified" stocks she said. Today, her million dollars are worth less than two hundred grand, and she's still holding on. She'll be lucky to cash in $50,000 when she musters the courage to cut her losses. At her age, she may end up on welfare.

People don't look, they don't observe, they think "it can't happen here," and even when they see they don't comprehend. It's really disheartening to see the stubbornness in people who are really smart enough to know better. Everything that doesn't fit the molds they've had created in their minds by our miserably-failed education system, they quickly label as "conspiracy theories" and dismiss conspicuous truth out of hand.

The Germans kept meticulously-detailed records of everything way back in the 1930s, and yet today technology permits, even encourages, the permanent keeping of even the minutest of seemingly unimportant information. Everything that moves, besides us, has a radio-frequency identification chip in it, everything from shavers to riding lawn mowers and everything in between. Everything we buy at WalMart, and most other places, has the tracking chip embedded in it. It won't be long before we'll have them in our bodies. The mechanisms to track and control everything are all in place, and soon there will be no privacy at all in this country.

What people fail to realize is that when all the foreclosures on homes, farms and businesses occurred during the Great Depression, the titles to all that property ended up in the hands of the bankers. They had financed them all with "money" they created out of thin air, with NOTHING, and then in exchange for nothing, they suddenly owned millions of acres of land and countless homes, buildings, equipment, etc., which they eventually sold again. The same thing is going on now. Despite pressure from the government upon lenders to give borrowers maximum leeway, foreclosures continue to mount, quietly shifting into the hands of banks. And who is being "bailed out" (read enriched) by the government with the people's money? You've got it, the BANKERS. The plan worked to perfection in the 1930's and it's working again, only this time it's on a far grander scale. It's called a "transfer of wealth." What it really is, is "serfdom."

Government's law enforcement agencies have equipment and technology most people would call "futuristic" or "science-fiction" because they cannot imagine that such stuff actually exists and might be used on the people. Take a look at some of these samples.

It's just so frustrating to see all the things I see and to know how few Americans even have a clue what goes on in the world they inhabit. It's really frustrating. But, at my age, about all I can do is yell at the top of my lungs and hope for the best.

Obama's attorneys seek protection from citizenship challenge

Press release on Philip Berg's lawsuit challenging Obama's citizenship. Berg claims Obama was borne in Kenya and has asked the court to order the production of documents. Instead of producing the documents that, if they exist, would end the lawsuit, Obama's defense (joined by the DNC) filed a motion to dismiss and then has asked the court to issue a protective order protecting them from having to comply with any production order. That tells its own story...the documents do not exist. Obama is not a United States Citizen. The media are doing their damnedest to suppress this story.

The media successfully helped John Kerry hide his bad conduct discharge from the Navy, the one he later had upgraded to honorable under Jimmy Carter's Amnesty program for the Vietnam era, and now they're trying to get a non-citizen fraudulently elected President. How many conspirators do you suppose it takes to pull these shenanigans off? What's next in this screwed-up world of confusion?

The Silver Lining

by Fred Marshall
Oct 9, 2008

There's One in Every Cloud

As parents, teachers, professionals, advisors, mentors, role models, or laymen, most of us take great pride in being right when we advise others. Being wrong can be embarrassing.

Over the past few days I have devoted about three hours daily to sorting out and organizing articles I have written since 2004 so I can eventually archive the pieces on a website. I've reviewed a bunch of them already this week and am frankly quite surprised at how many things have come to pass pretty much as I described in advance.

No one knows better than I how much I hope and pray I am wrong, that things will work out much better than available evidence suggests they will. I pray that every day. My country, its future and the future of my family are far more important than my pride or reputation. I sincerely hope things will work out far better than I have projected.

Most of what I see and discuss is available to anyone willing to look. I spend very little time reading the opinions of others, and instead focus attention to looking at events, evidence and indicators. When I see an auto parked in a driveway with its hood just inside the open garage door, I can be reasonably confident that the next time it moves it will be backing up. Then when I subsequently see a vandal place a pile of broken glass and nails under the right rear tire, it's a good bet the driver will not notice. Therefore, predicting a flat tire within the next 24 hours is not a feat of clairvoyance...it's a matter of finding and interpreting the evidence.

I realize that most readers don't have the time I have to research and examine things. For too long now, such people have unfortunately relied upon the mainstream media to do the scouring and digging and reporting the important news to them. The media have realized this awesome power to influence people and mold opinions, and have methodically betrayed listeners and viewers by using their ability to indoctrinate, propagandize, and gradually brainwash their audiences. I, and countless other truth-seekers, try to be just one offset that sheds light into the darkness of misinformation and disinformation that bombards the general population every day.

My successes may be few, but I take pride in a few stories that find their way back to me over time. I'd like to tell you about just one of them.

A few days ago three ladies were out campaigning for a candidate who is running to fill the seat of a retiring elected official. They knocked on my older son's door and were invited in. One of the ladies is a professional and the other two are stay-at-home-moms. When she realized my son's name is the same as mine (I'm Jr. and he's III), she told him that his father (me) had written her a letter about ten years ago that changed her life and had increased her income considerably. She said she has re-read the letter about every six months ever since then. When he told me her name and profession, I remembered, though I have not seen her since writing the letter.

Some ten years ago I had occasion to discuss some business with her. We had been total strangers before that day. She was in a threesome business partnership with two men and, before I departed her place of business, our conversation had gone beyond what I was there for and I'd learned in some detail a few of the frustrating difficulties she encountered in her uncommon partnership arrangement. So when I returned home, I wrote a letter to her proposing a strategy, and outlining some specific steps and actions I believed would improve her relationships with her partners, and suggested ways to increase her business and profit.

So now I'm quite curious. Though I don't recall the contents of my letter, I plan to call her tomorrow and ask for a copy of it. I'm now eager to know what I told her ten years ago and, more specifically, I want to know whether or not the advice I gave her then was the same I would offer today under the same or similar circumstances. I'm betting it is.

Life has many rewards whose values cannot be expressed in dollars and cents or even by any tangible measurement. A high school classmate said, as he emceed our class reunion in 1995, "If a man has a woman he loves, and who loves him, and work he enjoys, then he need ask for no more in life." I never managed any long-term success on the loving woman aspect, but I have always loved the work I have chosen throughout my life. At least I am half-lucky, huh? I wish all of you get to experience just half the happiness I have enjoyed in my lifetime; if you do, you will be lucky indeed.

For Want of a Nail

by Fred Marshall Jr.
October 8, 2008

For want of a nail rhyme
http://www.rhymes.org.uk/for_want_of_a_nail.htm

In the movie 'The Hunt For Red October,' Alec Baldwin is seen wondering out loud to himself while shaving aboard the USS Enterprise, 'What would make a crew WANT to get off a nuclear submarine?'

In similar fashion, one might wonder 'What events could destroy the economy and currency of the United States, and were such events accidental or contrived?' Many Americans have certainly given those questions some deep thought.

We know the flawed mechanism which provided the setting is the debt ponzi scheme that is our unconstitutional monetary system. The first major chink in the armor of the lending market came with Jimmy Carter's 1977 'Community Reinvestment Act (CRA)' which forced banks to make loans to borrowers who didn't meet normal minimum standards of creditworthiness, but who were classified as belonging to 'communities of color.'

The Act was structured to give enforcement authority to four bureaucracies (the Federal Reserve, the Comptroller of the Currency, the Office of Thrift Supervision, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) at least two of which are not legal agencies of the federal government. The law provided that any one of these agencies can prohibit or postpone any bank merger, bank expansion, or even opening of a new branch if the Act's "quotas" have not been met, based upon complaints from any community group. That allowed "community groups," such as ACORN, to extort banks and blackmail the government into bestowing federal grants upon them.

Chink number two provided the landscape. Despite the knowledge (gained from years of administering the destructive loan programs) that such massive, irresponsible lending to unqualified borrowers would eventually collapse the system, Bill Clinton nevertheless forced the parameters to be expanded and the lending to be stepped up. What we are seeing now could have been seen coming from a mile away way back then, by anyone willing to take even a cursory look at the numbers; and we know at least four bureaucracies and a three presidents WERE looking at those figures all along.

In late 1999, knowing full well where the program was heading, Fannie Mae (under the stewardship of "friend of Obama" Franklin Raines) moved to loosen credit rules even further than they already had been relaxed. This opened the floodgates for more bad, or I should say worse, loans to be made not only to unqualified American borrowers but to unqualified ILLEGAL ALIENS as well.

Meanwhile, Alfonso Johnson (head of HUD and "friend of Obama") joined Fannie Mae and the Congressional Black Caucus by pushing legislation that reduced, and in some cases eliminated, the requirement for down payments, and also pushed rule changes that made it much harder for enforcement to detect and pursue perpetrators of fraud in lending.

Do you believe that any soundly-managed bank would, absent government interference, make mortgage loans to borrowers they know going in cannot possibly repay them? Of course not.

Well, that's precisely what the privately-owned, non-government Federal Reserve and the United States Government have conspired, for more than 20 years, to do and they have done it. More than ONE TRILLION DOLLARS in bad loans, backed by Mac and Mae, have been made, including 5ive million loans to illegal aliens. If one believes government figures on the number of illegal aliens in the U.S. (12 to 20 million), then not only has the government encouraged illegals to flock here, it has looked the other way as they were coming in but, once they are here and established, the government has sought them out and given one in four of them government-backed loans (government-backed means the government promises that you and I will pay for the defaults). That's like Archie lending Bill's lawn mower to Charles.

If you were a woman who had gone to a beauty shop which put the wrong chemicals on your hair, chemicals so strong they burned the roots so badly that your hair fell out and could never grow back, would you then send your 16-year-old daughter to the same beauty shop the following week?

Well, that's precisely what the American people will be doing if they elect Barack Obama in November. Electing John McCain doesn't hold much promise either.

Why do we send people to Congress in the first place? Isn't a little oversight one of the things we expect of them? Don't we expect a little oversight from the mainstream media? Are they telling us that it's likely Obama isn't even a U.S. Citizen? No. Are they telling us of his close connections with many of the key players who helped create the conditions which brought this crisis about? Are they telling us of McCain's Keating 5ive swindles?

No, they're telling us that everything bad happened under the current president's "watch" when it is clear that the pot was put on the stove during Jimmy Carter's watch and has been boiling steadily through the presidencies of Ronald Reagan, Bush the Elder, Bill Clinton and, now, Bush Junior. We need to start seeing reality and calling spades spades. We don't have a qualified candidate for President in either the Democratic or Republican Parties.

Politicians and government officials, parroted by the media, changed "bailout" to "rescue." Now they are carefully shifting from "depression" to "recession." Every time Bush, Bernanke or Paulson speaks, the stock market drops. Today it dropped 200 points within 15 minutes after Paulson stammered and fumbled with questions he was asked.

Unemployment is rising like baking dough. Home burglaries and robberies of small businesses are already on the upswing. The government is promising to bail everybody out, everybody but us, the poor working stiffs they're robbing. Thousands of us have been predicting this for years. Millions haven't heard a word we've said.

For want of a little conscientious oversight by the people, a nation is lost. I hope at least some of you are ready. I, for one, am not thrilled at the possibility of going down the tubes with the lazy, apathetic masses who've laid on their fat azzes and stuffed their faces while our nation has been burning.

To all who may be interested - Berg's Obama suit

From: Fred Marshall: (fredmarshall dot csm dot ret at gmail dot com)


To all who may be interested:

There has been a flury of internet reports that a judge in ED PA ordered Obama to produce his birth certificate. This is not true. I checked the docket sheet and the current status of the case is that Berg filed an opposition to the DNC Motion to Dismiss and also filed a motion to admend his complaint. Neither the motion to dismiss nor the motion to amend has been ruled upon as of today. Thus, there is no order.

But today, 10/7/2008, an intervenor filed a motion to intervene and petition for a mandamus. The intervenor has a concurrent case in DC. I have downloaded the intervenor's filing and attached it here for your purusal. If any of the allegations contained in the intervenor's filing is true, we are heading towards a major constitutional problem with Obama.

The Unraveling - Close up!

A Little Salt for Georgia
Associated Press - September 30, 2008
Tuscaloosa, AL - Authorities arrested University of Alabama head coach Nick Saban in the predawn hours Monday at his home in Tuscaloosa on animal cruelty charges. Saban, 56, was charged with 85 counts of animal cruelty in an alleged attack which occurred Saturday night in Athens, Georgia. Police said that as many as 92,138 witnesses saw Saban and a large group of violent young men under his control hit, kick, crush and destroy a large pack of mostly-docile bulldogs. One officer was quoted as saying, "I haven't seen dogs treated this badly since the Michael Vick case."

The Unraveling
by Fred Marshall Jr.
October 6, 2008

Nobody would be happier than I should my assessments of the economy, the dollar, the government, and the future prove to be wrong. Nobody. I'm not gleefully reveling at the prospect of a macabre unraveling of my beloved country. Despite nursing a sluggish mind in my old age, even I am smart enough to know that if you pour water into a container long enough, the container will overflow. Moreover, when you pour 850 billion metric tons of water into an already-overflowing container, lots of things that aren't supposed to will get wet.

Perhaps I should begin by quoting from a piece I wrote a dozen years ago:

"Politicians and governments pursue strategies and policies they believe will keep them in power, and they adopt techniques designed to perpetually increase their power over the people. By definition, then, they must continually work against the best interests of the people, to weaken the voice of the people and to reduce the people's influence. Should they do anything that could possibly strengthen the voice of the people, it would necessarily diminish their own power. In plain words, we mistakenly believe we 'elect' people to represent us and look out for our best interests when, in fact, we willingly send people to legislatures to deliberately screw us." - Fred Marshall Jr.

Let's begin with the presidential campaigns and the rapidly-approaching election. Qualifications and ideologies notwithstanding, third party candidates haven't a prayer of being elected. The lamestream media won't allow them any significant public exposure and, in what little exposure they do permit, they subtly disparage them in every way possible.

That leaves us with the Democratic and Republican Parties' nominees. Both of them were selected by "the men behind the curtain" (Rothschilds, Rockefellers and the stockholders of the privately-owned Federal Reserve) and they will control the "winner" as their puppet. Considering what we know about the vulnerability of the no-paper-trail electronic voting machines, it's a good bet the "winner" is already known by the insiders.

The media have all the dirt they need to destroy McCain at will. Obama operatives and media whores have descended upon Alaska (the "frozen chosen") and have left no stone unturned trying to dig up dirt on Sarah Palin. The public thus knows far more about her than they know about the media-created Messiah, Barack Hussein Obama (not sure that's his official name).

Make-Believe Maverick - A long read, but very insightful - and scary
http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/23316912/makebelieve_maverick/print

Pennsylvania attorney Philip J. Berg, in his own behalf as a registered Democrat voter, has filed suit in federal court challenging the citizenship of Barack Obama, aka Barry Soetero, aka Barry Obama, aka Barack Dunham, aka Barry Dunham (so if he is elected, maybe we can call him "President What's-his-name"?). Berg has named the Democratic National Committee and the National Elections Commission as co-defendants.

The case is very interesting, and I must set the record straight regarding some incorrect information I dispatched earlier, not knowing it was flawed. The suit WAS filed, and Attorney Berg prepared his proposed order for the signature of the judge. So far as I can tell, the judge did not sign the proposed order. Instead, the defense filed a lengthy Motion to Dismiss, and Mr. Berg filed his 35-page reply and brief in opposition to the Motion to Dismiss. If anything has happened subsequent to that, I am not aware of it.

There seems to be a significant body of evidence which puts Obama's citizenship in question, which makes us wonder why this matter wasn't cleared up in advance by the DNC and the FEC. Exceptionally telling is the basis for their Motion to Dismiss; instead of producing the documents requested, they challenge the court's jurisdiction. Does that suggest the documents don't exist? You bet it does.

Documents pertaining to the case are attached (courtesy of well-known Huntsville, Alabama attorney Larry Becraft), as membership to PACER is needed to access them online. Some of the exhibits Berg filed appear to buttress the claim that Obama is a Muslim.

The bottom line is that it won't really make any difference which one is "elected."

Now for today's events, the economy, and the dollar.

Rather than discuss and evaluate today's record plunge in the stock market, the increased demand for gold, and take a stab at what these events portend, it's more productive to understand that what we saw today was carefully PLANNED, and it's just the beginning....the beginning of the end for many Americans.

To properly condition the readers' minds for what WILL occur, not later than March 15, 2009, imagine what would happen if the Supreme Court were to rule tomorrow that all mortgage instruments (promissory notes, security deed notes, etc.) are NULL and VOID, for some obscure legal reason. Suddenly, without warning, every lending institution which holds mortgages on real property would be left holding the proverbial "bag." Everyone who owes "money" on their homes, commercial properties, and rental properties would instantly own them free and clear, and their accounts would be marked "paid in full." Millions of people would have thus "stolen" tens of billions from banks, would they not?

Then imagine what will happen if the reverse occurs....if the dollar is suddenly declared worthless (that's precisely what is planned). Instantly, every financial holding that is in dollar denomination will be worth NOTHING. Whether it is in the form of dollar currency, bank cashier's checks, traveler's cheques, money orders, pension plans, 401k plans, checking and savings accounts, certificates of deposit, money market accounts, and so on, it will be gone. They will all evaporate in the blink of an eye. The value of what people holding any of these will have will be essentially the same as holding a package of notebook paper in their hands....NOTHING. The banks that owe you money (your deposits), and those previously obligated to redeem your dollar instruments, will have their "accounts" marked "paid in full." The banks will have thus "stolen" tens of billions of dollars from the people, will they not?

The way FDR explained to Americans that the government had stolen $140 billion from them in 1933 following the historical "bank holiday." In buying power, that was more than a trillion of today's dollars. Correction, last month's dollars (they're worth much less now). We've been hearing other versions of the same BS for more than a week. Before you "gobble it up," count your money.

Why is this important, why has it been planned this way, and who benefits?

The Federal Reserve, a privately-owned (non government) cartel of international bankers, has profited tens of TRILLIONS of dollars from indoctrinated (and thus unsuspecting) Americans since the illegal, unconstitutional Federal Reserve Act was clandestinely passed in the late-night hours on the eve of Christmas Eve, 1913. They have defrauded an entire nation for nearly a century. They have gradually inflated the currency until the 100-cent 1913 dollar has been systematically debased to the current 2-cent 2008 dollar. With this plan (collapse the dollar and issue the Amero), all their obligations will be miraculously "paid in full." They can issue the Amero and start over, debt-free. That's why it was planned, and that's why it will happen. Obviously, the banking cartel and the very rich will benefit.

For the time being, average folks are temporarily safe IF they have withdrawn their money from banks. Dollars will stand up for a while, though the $850 billion being pumped into the world economy will result in our paying more for what we buy than we have been accustomed to paying. When the runs on the banks occur - - and I'm confident they will occur within this week - - people who have their dollars secured elsewhere will be spared for the moment. But time is short. That currency should be used to pay off debts, or toward debts, and convert to gold and/or silver, or to buy "things" which can later be sold for Ameros.

Gold has gotten scarce these past two-three weeks. European gold is being retained in Europe just in case the dollar's collapse dominoes to the Euro. If anyone knows where certified gold and silver are available, please let me know so I can share the info with my lists. Obviously, not everyone will be able to find and acquire gold and silver. The next best thing is to put your dollars into valuable assets that cannot be erased by erasing the dollar. Pay your house and car off, and buy "things."

Keep in mind that when a bank run starts, the bank doors will close within half a day. Banks only have enough cash on hand to handle their normal day-to-day transactions. If a typical small bank's daily transactions run, say, $40,000 to $50,000, then it would be able to handle your withdrawing $60,000 in cash from your savings account. They could give you a cashier's check, but where would you cash it, considering that other banks operate the same way?

What will be the impact on the economy where you live? Businesses which cannot get loans to keep their operations afloat will have to close or at least lay off some employees and cut back production and services. People laid off will still have bills to pay but won't have incomes. Look for businesses to stop accepting credit cards and even debit cards (fearing the bank might fail before they get their money). Crime will go through the roof. Many people who need (or want) but do not "have," will resort to stealing. That means muggings, home burglaries, robbing small businesses, etc. If you have anything outside at home that people can steal and sell, please secure it.

I'll write more later. I get sick every time I start writing about this and considering the chaos that will result. Three things in particular make me deathly ill. First, the 100-year plundering and pillaging of the American people the U.S. Government has helped the ruthless, godless money vultures steal from us makes me sick. Secondly, watching the steady stream of lies I see coming from straight faces in the media, and the politicians they broadcast, makes me sick. And thirdly, just knowing how uninformed, brainwashed and gullible the vast majority of the American people are makes me sick. See you next time.

Once upon a time in a village, a man appeared and announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys for $10 each. The villagers seeing that there were many monkeys around, went out to the forest, and started catching them.

The man bought thousands at $10 and as supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their effort. He further announced that he would now buy at $20. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again.

Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms. The offer increased to $25 each and the supply of monkeys became so little that it was an effort to even see a monkey, let alone catch one!

The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at $50 ! However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would now buy on his behalf.

In the man's absence, the assistant told the villagers 'Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has collected. I will sell them to you at $35 and when the man returns from the city, you can sell them to him for $50 each.'

The villagers rounded up all their savings and bought all the monkeys for $35 each. Then they never saw the man nor his assistant again. They had the monkeys, and the man had their money.

Now you have a better understanding of how the stock market and the government work.
