Was the American Dream Stolen?

How our economy may have gotten to where we are today.

I had my teenage children watch this, however, (warning) this video may not be suitable for young children.

  • What are your thoughts about central banks and/or the Federal Reserve?

  • Do you think the creation of the Federal Reserve helped or hurt the American dream?

  • Do you believe the Federal Reserve is part of the government or a private bank?

  • Should the Federal Reserve control the dollar?

  • How do you think moving our dollars off the gold standard in 1971 affected the American dream?

In my opinion, our dollars should never have been removed from the gold standard. The Federal Reserve, a private bank owned by other banks, was created to deceive the people. It is neither Federal nor does it have any reserves, yet it controls the price of money. I believe giving power to the Federal Reserve is a major reason for our current financial situation where many feel the American dream was stolen or lost.

But, let me know your thoughts. We are all learning together!

I feel we are all students of one another, learning from each other’s strengths and weaknesses. I am not a financial advisor, but I am continuously learning on my journey to become financially independent, and I’m passionate about teaching others how to do the same. Come learn with me so we can live our best lives and then spread our wings to help others do the same
