ChatGPT: The quote you're thinking of is often attributed to Henry David Thoreau, who said:
"There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root."
This means that many people focus on addressing the surface-level symptoms of a problem (the branches) rather than tackling the underlying cause (the root). Thoreau’s point is that true change or resolution comes only when we address the core issues rather than just the visible effects.

I am convinced that USURY is the ROOT of ALL EVIL.
USURY is the mechanism of our enslavement.
USURY is why we are TAX SLAVES
USURY is why we are DEBT SLAVES
USURY is the mechanism by which “the wealth” is “transferred” from the working poor, and into the hands of “the rich” or “the wealthy”
“All wealth is derived from labor”
~ Adam Smith, paraphrased
ChatGPT: The quote you're referencing is close to Adam Smith’s ideas in The Wealth of Nations, though it may not be a direct quote. Smith argued that labor is a primary source of value, stating:
"Labour was the first price, the original purchase-money that was paid for all things."
This means that labor is foundational to creating wealth, as it’s through human work that resources are transformed into valuable goods and services. Smith emphasized that the value of any commodity largely depends on the amount of labor invested in producing it.
Our entire money system is built on USURY.
So let me give you my own two personal definitions of USURY…
-
Usury is the charging of money, for the use of money.
-
Usury is the charging of any interest at all.
And until USURY is addressed, we will never be “free”
The Federal Reserve Note is in the final stages of life,
And the reason it failed, is the same reason EVERY usury scheme fails
Trump is just one man.
We don’t have much time to enact the monetary reforms we should make
I nominate Ron Paul for the job
That's antisemitic
Follow the money
