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?
