Now is the time for people to become versed in these matters and to uphold the Standard of Liberty for all Humanity as respecting financial matters, the very basis of governments.

Abraham Lincoln’s prophecy of 1865 ought to awaken people today to righteous action: “As a result of war, corporations have been enthroned, and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign, by working upon the prejudices of the people, until all the wealth is aggregated in a few hands, and the Republic is destroyed.”

Ninety-six per cent of the wealth today is in the hands of four per cent of the people, with ninety-six per cent of the people controlled by the monetary power the four per cent of the people control. What are the people going to do about it? At least they can become intelligent on government money matters and add the power of their righteous thought to the support of the Principles of Righteous Government and Finance, thereby serving the all, honoring themselves, God, and the Spirit of Liberty.

—From a pamphlet issued by the Department of Righteous Economics and Government.
