                                           WHERE IS THE MONEY (GOLD) FROM FT. KNOX?



                            INVESTIGATION INTO THE ROBBERY OF FORT KNOX


                                My research uncovered the following information that was never intended
                            by the government to be revealed, ever! What you are about to discover will
                            shock and anger the average hard working, tax paying American. I know it
                            did me!
                                    The law requires that the Secretary of the  Treasury submit to
                            Congress a report on the amount and value of gold held in the vaults at Fort
                            Knox each year. Yet, the Secretary has issued no report in the last twenty-
                            five years. No person has been allowed to view the contents of the vaults at
                            Fort Knox. And no audit of the gold supplies belonging to the United States
                            Treasury can be found for at least the last twenty-five years.
                                The government is covering up the fact that Fort Knox has been systematically
                            looted.
                                In 1933, Franklin D. Roosevelt penned executive orders that confiscated
                            all privately held gold and that did so without compensation. The American
                            people were forced to exchange their gold for valueless Federal Reserve Notes.
                            The rate of exchange fixed by the government was about 40% below the
                            market price. The total loss to the American economy was approximately
                            $5 billion. All gold exchanged was added to the supply in the vaults at Fort
                            Knox, Kentucky. Records show that the total gold supply in the vaults in
                            1935 was worth about $28 billion, or $350 billion in today’s market.




                                                                        World in debt to U.S.


                                Between 1935 and 1956 most of the nations of the world became
                            indebted to the United States. Most of the indebtedness was incurred
                            when the U.S. furnished aid to its allies during World Wars I and II. Debts
                            between nations have been traditionally satisfied by payment in gold. Thus
                            our gold supplies should have escalated exponentially. A few nations did
                            make payments on their debt and one or two may have even paid the entire
                            amount. Most, however, delayed payment, and eventually the United States
                            Congress forgave their debt. In any event by 1956, our gold supplies should
                            have been far in excess of $940 billion, but even if they were not, where is the
                            $80 billion that should have been there?
