Title: THE HISTORY OF MONEY Abraham Lincoln's Greenback Dollar
Headings: 

Content: In numerous years following    the war, the Federal Government ran a heavy surplus. It could not     (however) pay off its debt, retire its securities, because to do    so meant there would be no bonds to back the national bank notes. To pay off the debt was to destroy the money supply." John Kenneth Galbrath The American    economy has been based on government debt since 1864 and it is    locked into this system. Talk of paying off the debt without first    reforming the banking system is just talk and a complete    impossibility. That same year Lincoln had a pleasant surprise. Turns out the Tsar of Russia, Alexander II, was well aware of the    money changers scam. The Tsar was refusing to allow them to set up    a central bank in Russia. If Lincoln could limit the power of the    money changers and win the war, the bankers would not be able to    split America and hand it back to Britain and France as planned. The Tsar knew that this handing back would come at a cost which    would eventually need to be paid back by attacking Russia, it    being clearly in the money changers sights.
