These actions not only produced vast profits but frequently toppled regimes whose banking systems were not under their control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \"scam\" of the money-lenders is the ability to literally create money from nothing, lend it, and accumulate interest on \"credit\". They then re-lend that interest for further interest, in perpetuity, creating pervasive, worldwide debt — from the individual, to the family, to the entire state.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe ability to operate a fraudulent credit and loan system has long been known. With all the slickness of a snake-oil salesman, the money-lenders — the same types Jesus whipped from the Temple — have persuaded governments that banking is best left to their private interests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe cultural and material progress of a civilization often relates to the degree by which it is free from the influence of debt, and the degradation resulting from the money-lenders' abuse of power. Goodson shows that both World Wars, the Napoleonic Wars, the American Revolution, the rise and fall of Julius Caesar, the regicide of Charles I of England, the overthrow of Gaddafi in Libya, and the revolution against Tsar Nicholas, among much else in history, relate to this \"Hidden Hand\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you wish to have a real understanding of history, look for the influence of the bankers. This is the key to understanding the past, the present, and the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e4th Edition - March 2019.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47397690540268,"sku":"9781912759200","price":79.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/0a7e2d66884d2454a66d3067903739f4.jpg?v=1773721154"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/stephen-mitford-goodson.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
