I would like to think that the present catastrophic imbalance of wealth and influence will soon force drastic reform and revision that can only lead to the implementation of the NEED act or something similar. I can’t imagine how this country can ever thrive again unless the artificially imposed debt of the central bank is somehow abolished. It’s long past time to recognize that the bank was a horrible mistake that must be corrected---i.e. ABOLISHED
That all sounds very convincing, unless you're the one making that decision, to go against the "money system" for as stated in Our Country Then and Now page 136 "James A. Garfield as President "was able to put his financial expertise, which was acquired through his congressional committee experience, to work by recalling government bonds that were paying 6% interest. The Treasury was able to refinance them at 3.5% which save $10 million annually-about 4% of the overall budget at the time"and then on On July 2, 1881, at 9:20 a.m., James A. Garfield was shot in the back!
I agree that LaRouche and his group was totally right about the evils of the British system up to and including the conspiracy against Trump. Even until today it's London at the center of the globalist imperial cabal that has been trying to take down Trump since 2016. LaRouche made a tremendous contribution to our awareness of Britain's machinations which helped me in writing my book Our Country, Then and Now.
I can’t understand why Hamilton got away with this so soon after the Northern colonies had successfully issued paper currencies (disguised as “scrip”) which had enabled great prosperity.
Great piece Richard! Hamilton was such an amazing liar, who made speeches that the "nation", and not the citizens of states had "full power of sovereignty" and always arguing for "Constitutional" expansion of enumerated powers - and the "doctrine" of implied powers - vs a set of limitations (Jefferson, et al). With this mythical reasoning they were able to make the Constitution say & authorize about anything! Like the gaffe comment that George Will once said, We honor Jefferson but live in Hamilton's country."
If Jefferson were alive he would be singing the praises of Globalism and British "free trade" policies while Hamilton would be under attack by the city/state of London and Wall Street.
Trump stands for Real Estate as in FIRE and neither he nor his buddies want manufacturing competing with them for money. His tariffs are not meant to up-end the deep state but to pay for tax breaks for his 13 billionaire FIRE buds he appointed to the deep state and his other oligarch allies.
Hamilton versus Wall Street: The Core Principles of the American System of Economics
by Nancy Bradeen Spannaus
If you are concerned about getting our economy out of its current crisis, this is the book for you. Spannaus argues that if Alexander Hamilton were alive today, he would be Wall Street's biggest critic, and she proceeds to show how his principles for economic growth, later known as the American System of Economics, were the exact opposite of those speculative practices of today, how they were applied in our history, and how we might apply them now.
While Ron Chernow's biography provided an exhaustive review of Hamilton's life, Spannaus hones in on his core ideas, starting from his Report on Manufactures. There are no romantic flourishes, as in the Musical, but the reader will find many shockers about Hamilton's attacks on plutocratic practices, and the astonishing spread of his ideas after his death. The periods of our history where Hamilton's ideas were implemented were the most productive for our prosperity, notably those of Presidents John Quincy Adams, Abraham Lincoln, and Franklin Roosevelt. This is not a dry academic book. The content of the American System is delivered in 11 concise chapters which clearly delineate Hamiltonian principles, and the actions of those who implemented them. Numerous readers have commented on how approachable the content is for a book on economics. They have also shown surprise at the importance of the manufacturing perspective from the early days of our republic, and the connection between the nation's political economy and our prospects for political unity, up until today.
If you understand the principle of the commonwealth, you then understand the coherence of the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, and the undeniable fact that the fledgling American republic was a rejection of John Locke and British free-trade policies, and an embrace of republican values. If you know the real history of the commonwealth tradition, you then understand where the concept of the “general welfare” in the U.S. Constitution comes from, and how it commits the United States to rejecting the Confederate Constitution and its modern-day imitators. You are able to resolve the allegedly irreconcilable conflict between the interest and freedom of the individual and of states, through the concept of a republican nation state based on God’s natural law.
I am a Larouchie as well and I think you're totally wrong on Hamilton. I started following Larouche while taking a communications course at Centennial College in 1972. He was going by the pen name, Lynn Marcus, at the time. I did media research for the Executive Intelligence Review in the 70's.
"The Treasury Department is the guardian of America's wealth and a symbol of America's prestige," said Trump, noting that Hamilton "understood that the government must protect the jobs of our citizens and the wealth of our nation." I guess we will know soon enough whether the British Globalist "free trade" system or the Hmiltonian system being employed by Trump will win out.
Jim, I totally agree. I just don't call it "Hamiltonian." Hamilton's "On Manufactures" was a copy of 17th century French mercantilism and Hamilton's financial system built on perpetual government debt was a clone of the Bank of England with the same purpose--allow the rich bankers to get richer by funding the imperial army and navy. The First and Second Banks were mercantile banks, not infrastructure. American infrastructure was built mainly by joint stock companies and state bonds, like the Erie Canal. However, the "American System" of protective tariffs was key, especially after the Civil War. But after McKinley was removed, the British took over with the Federal Reserve. So instead of calling it the "Hamiltonian" system, let's just call it "MAGA" and agree to be friends on the basis or our common understanding of what is needed right now.
I am in total agreement. What is needed now more than ever is, as Gavin Nascimento states, the recognition that "It's not left vs right, black vs white or even rich vs poor; it's elitism vs Humanity..." and coming together around common interests is the key to defeating them.

Right. Lincoln and McKinley too.
A Police Dossier: It is the British who murder our Presidents

Ah, the folks form Leesburg, VA.
Meuller jailed Larouche and allied with British Senior Crown Prosecutor Arvinder Sambei to go after Trump.
Origins of the Coup
British Senior Crown Prosecutor Arvinder Sambei conspired Trump coup d’tat with Robert Mueller
Sambei and Mueller have left a path of destruction whenever they have teamed up (U.S. Embassy bombings, 9/11, Trump-Russia Hoax)
Sambei’s partner Martin Polaine was disbarred for fabricating warrant evidence in the Cayman Islands
Used a different name for every project with Mueller—forgetful or deceptive?

Hamilton was a British Agent
He also shot a few in the war.
I can’t understand why Hamilton got away with this so soon after the Northern colonies had successfully issued paper currencies (disguised as “scrip”) which had enabled great prosperity.
It's a long story.

Spannous is a LaRouchie. I believe they are totally wrong on Hamilton.
I am a Larouchie as well and I think you're totally wrong on Hamilton. I started following Larouche while taking a communications course at Centennial College in 1972. He was going by the pen name, Lynn Marcus, at the time. I did media research for the Executive Intelligence Review in the 70's.
Also, I delete profanity.
I think LaRouche was right about a lot but not about Hamilton.
Thanks Jim. I'm right on Hamilton btw. LaRouche was wrong.
