Bank of England
first ever: private central bank
b. 1694
England on verge of financial collapse
after 50 years of war with France
deceptive name: Bank of England
/ a private institution
note: names of investors never disclosed
investors deposit 750k pounds gold
(in lieu of 1.25 million pounds in gold)
for purchase of shares @ 1.25 million pounds
Bank of England then began issuing interest-bearing loans 1694
/ in greater amounts than sum which ought to have been held in reserve
/ equivalent is transferring control of the military to organised crime
/ private central banks so powerful they control each country's economy
/ this leads to plutocracy
- private banks carry a hidden tax
- govt lacks political will to raise taxes
- instead, govt produces bonds & sells them to central banks
- central banks issue money for govt purposes
*but bounds are bought with theoretical money
- the more money that is circulated, the less money is worth
- people are left paying the price with inflation
Bank of England created 1694
by 1698 (ie 4 years)
govt debt ROSE:
- from 1.25 million pounds
- to 16 MILLION POUNDS
to pay that off, state taxes keep increasing
Financial capital began to take de facto control of the state

COMMENT
Looks good to explore. No time now.
Cannot understand why governments do not control their own money and their own banks, cutting out the private profiteer in control of the country's economy, whose interests are not that of the nation.
In England's case, it's because England went bankrupt (by the sound of things). Check out how much England's debt to bankers grew in the space of 4 years.
Wonder who the secret Bank of England money-lenders were?
Don't know that I'll remember all that East India info, but it was good fun checking it out.
No time to look further right now.
