Societe Generale Signs Liquidity Contract With Rothschild

Now is it time to worry?

Of course not...

Because 'families' who are the shareholders of the large banks that comprise the CB cartels don't have anything to do with anything...

To prove it... Here's a list of fellows to explain how they have nothing to do with anything...

---

"The bank hath benefit of interest on all moneys which it creates out of nothing."

--William Paterson, founder of the Bank of England in 1694, then a privately owned bank.

"The few who understand the system will either be so interested in its profits or be so
dependent upon its favours that there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other
hand, the great body of people, mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantage that capital derives from the system, will bear its burdens without complaint, and perhaps without even suspecting that the system is inimical to their interests."


--The Rothschild brothers of London writing to associates in New York, 1863.

"Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The Bankers own the Earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create deposits, and with the flick of a pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take it away from them, and all the fortunes like mine will disappear, and they ought to disappear, for this world would be a happier and better world to live in. But if you wish to remain slaves of the Bankers and pay
for the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create deposits."


--Sir Josiah Stamp, President of the Bank of England in the 1920s, the second richest man in Britain.

"I am afraid the ordinary citizen will not like to be told that the banks can and do create
money. And they who control the credit of the nation direct the policy of Governments and hold in the hollow of their hand the destiny of the people."


--Reginald McKenna, as Chairman of the Midland Bank, addressing stockholders in 1924.

"The banks do create money. They have been doing it for a long time, but they didn't realise it, and they did not admit it. Very few did. You will find it in all sorts of documents,
financial textbooks, etc. But in the intervening years, and we must be perfectly frank about
these things, there has been a development of thought, until today I doubt very much whether
you would get many prominent bankers to attempt to deny that banks create it."


--H W White, Chairman of the Associated Banks of New Zealand, to the New Zealand Monetary Commission, 1955.

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies."

--Thomas Jefferson, US President 1801-9.

"When a government is dependent upon bankers for money, they and not the leaders of the government control the situation, since the hand that gives is above the hand that takes. Money has no motherland; financiers are without patriotism and without decency; their sole object is gain."

--Napoleon Bonaparte, Emperor of France.

'Permit me to issue and control the money of the nation and I care not who makes its laws.'

— Mayer Amschel Rothchild
