This is a 2 hour documentary by Bill Still about the creation of debt recommended by a friend (Tracy). It is, by far, the best documentary on the subject - basically the biggest con trick ever perpetrated on mankind - I have seen and I regard it as essential viewing for those who wish to know and understand our world today.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.

I've extracted some of the more notable quotes from the foregoing documentary as they strike me as telling the deeper story quite clearly.
Anyway, enjoy.
Quote:
"We must go forward cautiously and consolidate each acquired position, because already the inferior social stratum of society [you and me] is giving unceasing signs of agitation.
"Let us make use of the courts… When through the law's intervention, the common people will have lost their homes, they will be more easy to control and more easy to govern, and they shall not be able to resist the strong hand of the Government acting in accordance with… the control of the leaders of finance."
"[We] must keep the people busy with political antagonisms.
"We'll therefore speed up the question of reform (of tariffs within) the Democratic Party; and we'll put the spotlight on the question of protection [for] the Republican Party.
"By dividing the electorate this way, we'll be able to have them spend their energies at struggling amongst themselves on questions that, for us, have no importance whatsoever."
United States bankers magazine, 1892.

"On Sept, 1, 1894 [3 years hence] we will not renew our loans under any consideration. On Sept. 1st we will demand our money. We will foreclose and become mortgagees in possession.
"We can take two-thirds of the farms west of the Mississippi, and thousands of them east of the Mississippi as well, at our own price."
"Then the farmers will become tenants as in England…"
1891, American Bankers Association
***
"Silver, silver certificates, and Treasury bonds (that is to say, all the Government's money) must be retired and (interest bearing) National Bank Notes made the only money.
You will at once retire one-third of your circulation (your paper money) and call in one-half of your loans. Be careful to make a monetary (emergency) among your patrons, especially among influential businessmen.
The future (of our debt-based money system) depends upon immediate action, as there is an increasing sentiment in favour of legal-tender notes and silver coinage."
Congressman Charles A Lindbergh, 1913 in his book Banking and Currency and the Money Trust
***
"Whoever controls the volume of money in any country is absolute master of all industry and commerce… and when you realise that the entire system is very easily controlled, one way or another, by a few powerful men at the top, you will not have to be told how periods of inflation and depression originate."
1881, President James Garfield
***
"It is advisable to do all in your power to sustain such prominent daily and weekly newspapers, especially the Agricultural and Religious Press, as will oppose the greenback issuance of money…
To repeal the Act creating notes, or to restore to circulation the government circulation of money will be to provide the people with money and will therefore seriously affect our individual profits and bankers and lenders…
See your Congressman at once and engage him to support our interests that we may control legislation."
1877 letter by James Buel, Secretary American bankers Association
***
I know of absolute certainty that the division of the United States into two federations of equal force was decided long before the Civil War by the high financial powers of Europe. These bankers were afraid that the United States, if they remained as one block and were to develop as one nation, would attain economic and financial independence, which would upset the… domination of Europe over the world."
1876. Otto von Bismarck, Chancellor of Germany.
***
"Someone has to borrow every dollar we have in circulation… if the Banks create ample… money we are prosperous; if not we starve.
"When one gets a complete grasp of the picture the tragic absurdity of our hopeless position is… incredible.
"It is the most important subject intelligence persons can investigate and reflect upon"
1934. Robert H Hemphill
Credit manager of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta
***
"It is well that the people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning"
Henry Ford.
