In the spirit of 1776
End the Fed.
Restore Honest Money.
Our dollar has lost 95% of its purchasing power since 1913. Every year, more than one trillion dollars of your taxes goes to interest on the national debt. It is time to take money back from the central bankers — peacefully, honestly, and together.

The Record
The numbers they hoped you'd never add up.
Since a private banking cartel was handed control of American money in 1913, the dollar has been quietly devalued year after year. This is not an accident. It is a system working exactly as designed.
95%
of the dollar's purchasing power destroyed since 1913
$1 trillion+
of taxpayer money spent every year just to pay interest on the national debt
1/3
of every income-tax dollar goes to interest — not to schools, roads, or defense
1913
no income tax, national debt near zero — the year our money was taken
The Mission
Money belongs to the people — not to a cartel.
The Federal Reserve System is an unconstitutional, monopolistic banking cartel. It encourages war, destabilizes the economy, and generates inflation — a hidden tax on every American who works, saves, and lives on a fixed budget.
Fiat money is anti-American. It transfers wealth from those with the least to those with the most, enriching Wall Street insiders and their too-big-to-fail clients at the expense of ordinary citizens. The boom-and-bust cycles it manufactures are driving us toward collapse and misery.
The public was tricked into adopting a version of the dishonest monetary system that The Communist Manifesto demanded a century ago. It will take advocacy, honesty, and education to undo the harm of our current inflationary monetary system and to unlock the benefits of an honest monetary system — and that work belongs to all of us.
“Inflation is a hidden tax — it steals from the poor to give to the rich, and the Federal Reserve is the machine that prints it.”
We support economic democracy: a society that peacefully agrees on the best monetary system through honest competition. Sound money wins that competition every time it is allowed on the ballot.
Learn the Truth
The education the bankers never taught you.
Honest articles, videos, and events that explain money the way a founding-era printer would have — plainly, and without permission from the cartel.

It's time to free our money.
