We stand on the shoulders of great men who sacrificed their lives for the freedoms we enjoy today. Let not these sacrifices go in vain.
Who have been the victims of executive assassination in America? Without exception the guns of Wall Street have been aimed at the chief exponents of what is called The American System of Political Economy.
The American System is not Democrat or Republican; Keynesianism or socialism; not libertarianism or anarchism; but a system that restrains Wall Street speculators while supporting manufacturing, great infrastructure projects, agriculture and the general welfare.
Among its greatest exponents are:
Alexander Hamilton
The architect of America’s first national bank, monetary, infrastructure and industrial policies. Hamilton was murdered in a duel with Aaron Burr, the founder of what is now JP Morgan Chase Bank. Burr’s dueling pistols are still on display in the lobby of the JP Morgan Chase headquarters in NYC. Alexander Hamilton’s dueling pistols went on display at the Postal Museum in Washington D.C. Get the point?
Abraham Lincoln
Lincoln was not only the Great Emancipator but the founder of America’s rail and steel industries, its land grant Universities, the Homestead act, and enactor of its highest protective tariff against foreign-made goods. Some historians have linked assassin John Wilkes Booth to a wide-ranging conspiracy in service of London Banks.
James Garfield, William McKinley and Warren Harding
These three Lincoln Republicans were all champions of high protective tariffs and opponents of British imperialism. Garfield and McKinley were both shot by “lone nuts” and Harding, also a target of the teapot dome scandal, is suspected to have been poisoned.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Of Wall Street speculators, war profiteers and monopolists, FDR declared, “They are unanimous in their hatred for me, and I welcome their hatred!” Architect of the New Deal and champion of the American working man. FDR showed us how to keep our government free and representative of the common good with a strong economy based on physical PRODUCTION of infrastructure, industrial and agricultural goods. He survived several early assasination attempts.
John F. Kennedy
Kennedy’s Moon Shot mentality, his caution on the Vietnam War and firing of his warmonger cabinet, his hostility to Wall Street interest and cartels, and his introduction of US Treasury money (1964 silver quarters) were among the reason he became intolerable to The City of London and Wall Street. If you believe in the myth of “lone nuts” you owe yourself a listen to JFK’s haunting Secret Societies Speech:
