What/who is this power he speaks of ?
“Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.”
It is now 100 years since his comment, don't you know now? Look at history. Wilson was likely bragging, for he knew who they were, he implement the Federal Reserve System in the USA. It is the people who control the money
production, the bankers who run the "Federal Reserve Systems" of the world. The US Federal Reserve after WWII became the main money producer. The top devil. They are the tail that wags the dog. No one thus far has been able to dislodge them. Communism, Socialism, Capitalism, Feminist Movement, ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ Movement, Indigenous Peoples Rights, Islam, Black Power, etc., ALL are
empowered by the people who control the money, THE PEOPLE WHO CONTROL THE WORLD. Their only problem is that like the devils in hell, although they are united in purpose, they are devils, so they are always fighting among themselves for power. Similar to say Mafiosi, controlling their rackets, but constantly killing each other to be at the top.
You'll have to read more if you don't know this. Don't rely on people in forums, too much except as guides to the right books, the right authoritative writers.
