The Fractional Reserve Pyramid Scheme


Pyramid schemes are illegal in the U.S. Yet that's how we run our country?

The top of the pyramid is where all of the money ends up, trickling down to lower levels in the scheme, but the ones at the bottom don't profit at all, they are the ones who lose money so the ones at the top can profit. Pyramid schemes always fail because as more and more people lose, they realise what's being done and retaliate.

  • This is why you should get all the way out of debt personally, have a few grand in silver coin, food storage and supplies. Alt heat source for a winter and lots of bullets. Lock your doors and ride it out.

  • Is like trying to get out a pile of dense mud when you have no money. The less money you have, earn, your a nobody. Social life is nothing, even from family members. Because they are trying to make a living to. When it comes to christmas, it is like.."Who are you?!" Have a reasonable amount, people say ok..how are you doing?! But have a lot, you have people hanging around, that you do not even know. You become a somebody. The best guy ever. Social life is at its best.

  • You can wikipedia pyramid scheme if you want, but it wont show anything about our banking structure of course... However, if you understand what a pyramid scheme is, then you understand how the current world monetary system works, you'll see it's clearly the largest pyramid ever constructed... people wonder why Egyptians thought to idolize pyramids, back then it seemed to work out great for the people in control... because they reaped the benefits from the work of the slaves... Just as it works More..

  • So, I buy a $100 US savings bond. They take my money, and do whatever with it. Eventually I decide to cash in my bond, and I get $120 for it. So, the mystery is where does that extra $20 come from? It can come from more US savings bonds sold, but doesn't the federal reserve also make money by collecting interest from bank loans? The reserve can loan money to banks that make loans to people and businesses. The people and businesses use those loans to make more money. Let's say I get a $1,0 More..

    • @nuthouse The money you get comes from interest, interest the government pays back by selling more bonds, mostly to the federal reserve... it's like a bank, you put the money into the bank's savings account and get interest on that money, but the interest payed to you comes from interest people pay back on loans, however, there is never as much money in circulation as there is owed to banks and the federal reserve... inflation is caused by the government promising the federal reserve more money More..
