 A LIFE CHANGING BOOK August 24, 2009
J. Dickey (Chicago, IL)
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I went to a state college and studied Finance, I was indoctrinated with Keynesian economics and many false realities in regards to the Federal Reserve central bank. I bought this book once the credit crisis became more apparent in early 2008 curious to acquire a different perspective on this secretive institution that was glorified by many of my "all knowing" finance professors. I read this book and something changed in me, this book without a doubt has changed my entire understanding of how the world works. Not only does this text present the truth about the federal reserve, but it will offer you a whole new understanding of history as well. This is the most shocking, all encompassing analysis written about the root cause of all societies problems, the federal reserve. These central bankers are behind every major war throughout history and as Mr. Griffin proves with overwhelming evidence, these men profit handsomely from these tragic events by funding both sides. With the fed in existence, the USA is no longer a country of the people, for the people, and by the people, it is a country of the institutions, for the institutions, and by the institutions. The largest and more powerful of which is the private Federal Reserve. Everyone on the planet should read this book.

I found the subject of the book quite amazing actually. I find it interesting if that is the way the federal reserve was really started. I also agree with the thesis that the government cannot keep printing money like it is doing currently. We have a severe problem in this country because our government on both sides Democrat and Republican are blowing through our resources like a kid in a candy shop. I think that our elected officials could learn a great deal from reading this book, and I may start a fund to send a copy to everyone in Congress, and the President. Lord knows we need a little bit of common sense in government right now...

I think that this book should be required to graduate high school. The American people would benefit greatly from it.
Enlightening, fluid read. Highly recommended. July 28, 2009

Griffin's exposition of the Federal Reserve is an accurate portrayal, based on loads of evidence, of the wealth-destroying mission of central banks. I found the book as readable as a novel with all the drama and excitement of a mystery, but with the dispassionate citations of a careful researcher. My only concern, and it's a minor one, is that Griffin takes some liberties with the paucity of information about an inherently secretive organization (hard to blame him...it's a secret society). While this is excusable for an account of historical fiction, I think it tends to cast a shadow over scholar's consideration of this brilliant book as a pure, historical account...too bad. I don't think his assumptions are beyond the pale. I would highly recommend the book to anyone interested in the history and effect of centrally planned monetary policy making bodies and the real motives of those in them who claim to have our best interests at heart.
Scarier than any thriller July 17, 2009

Most people believe that the Federal Reserve System is part of our government. Once you read this book you will understand that most of your education has been to support this sytem so that Americans would buy into this concept of a central bank and fiat money (the American dollar). I could only read a few pages a day because the information inside would make me angry about what we have been led to believe is for the good of America, and of course, it is not. It is for the good of the bankers who run the Federal Reserve System. Read this book and tell others.
