DESCRIPTION:How did the Banks Break our Money System Again? \nWhy doesn’t it work for 
 America?\n\nLearn more about money in 3 hours than most economists learn 
 (or will tell) in a lifetime!\n\nThe Seminar will Discuss: \n\n* America's 
 Monetary Power has been usurped and privatized, leading to collapse and 
 ultimately unemployment and warfare! \n\n* How and why the money power must 
 be restored to society where it can be used to promote the general welfare, 
 instead of corrupt private agendas. \n\n* How the money power became 
 privatized, and is kept in place by false theory. \n\n* A three step 
 program that restores it to society. \n\n* Why we should nationalize the 
 Money System (the Federal reserve) NOT the banking system. (banking isn't a 
 proper function of government, but the money supply is a government 
 prerogative) \n\n* Why inflation need not be a problem. \n\n* How the facts 
 demonstrate that counter to prevailing prejudice, governmental control of 
 money has a far superior record than private control. \n\n* Why it is 
 crucial that the power to create any part of our money supply be completely 
 removed from banks, for any reform to work. \n\nThis is a hands on do-able 
 reality based program, not a theory, with many U.S. historical precedents, 
 and more going as far back as Classical Greece and Rome. \n\nThe Money 
 system acts like a fourth branch of government, generally affecting our 
 daily lives more than the Executive, Judicial and Legislative branches 
 combined. Yet it has been privatized and is largely outside the control of 
 our democratic system of checks and balances where it has unfairly 
 concentrated wealth to obscene levels among other injustices. \n\nThe 
 American Monetary Institute is America’s leading think tank focusing on 
 monetary history, theory and reform. Each September we hold a 3 day 
 monetary reform conference at Roosevelt University, where cutting edge 
 experts speak on those subjects. Each quarter the Institute offers this 
 free introductory seminar. \n\nThis seminar is designed for people who’d 
 like a good background on how our money system works, why its not working 
 well, how to fix it, and what benefits would follow in terms of 
 infrastructure and health care and education; and how our society has the 
 power to begin creating a superior future world, instead of getting mired 
 in stupidity and warfare. \n\nAbout Stephen Zarlenga- author of The Lost 
 Science of Money- The Mythology of Money- The History of Power, founder of 
 the American Monetary Institute-\n\nStephen Zarlenga draws on 35 years of 
 experience in the world of finance, securities, insurance, mutual funds, 
 real estate, and futures trading. He has published 20 books on money, 
 banking, politics and philosophy (including The Anglo American 
 Establishment, by Prof. Carrol Quigley). While in his mid 20s he 
 incorporated the Athenian branch of an English life insurance company, 
 earlier opening several European markets for the parent firm, IOS. \n\nA 
 few years later he built the U.S. distribution network of the then leading 
 American mutual fund concentrating in gold shares. As a member of the New 
 York Futures Exchange (a subsidiary of the New York Stock Exchange) he 
 specialized in trading the complex CRB futures index for several years. 
 Thus the author is more than familiar with both the practical and 
 theoretical sides of our market economy. \nYet he calls into question and 
 challenges the basis, and Achilles’ heel, of American Capitalism: the 
 private control and resulting misdirection of the nation’s monetary 
 system. \n\nStephen Zarlenga holds a degree in Psychology from the 
 University of Chicago (and has done postgraduate work at NYU), where he was 
 in the final graduating class under the revered Hutchins’ curriculum 
 which focused on critical reading and thought. This training, combined with 
 his work experience, and years of research, enabled him to re-formulate the 
 Lost Science of Money.\n\n\nThe author began focused research on the money 
 problem in 1991, eventually drawing on over 800 monetary source books and 
 materials to formulate this thesis. In 1996, he helped establish the 
 American Monetary Institute to further the research. In 1999, Conzett 
 Verlag of Zurich, Switzerland translated and published the work in German. 
 This expanded English version released in 2002, establishes the author as a 
 leading voice in the field of monetary history, theory and reform.\n\n
