Is America really the land of the free?
Ever since we were children we have been molded by society. At the store with our parents we wanted them to get us that “cool” toy that lights up and makes generic noises. When they said “no”, we were furious. The frustration of these incidents created a false hate for our own loving parents. Now we know of coarse that our parents didn’t hate us, they just couldn’t afford to buy the toy. Even though they worked every day for us, they still couldn’t afford it.

This is like how the government borrows money from the Federal Reserve. Accept the government hasn’t been out of debt since 1835. They just keep going further and further under. But that’s a different story. My point in the subject of money is that money is what everyone is working for. Everyone is out spending their day doing something they would probably not like to be doing just so they can get more money! Where does money come from and how do some people have so much more than others? The Federal Reserve is the central bank that the United States government refers to for its money. For example if the government needs 20 million dollars it contacts the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve will print the money for the
