| The Fed Releases Crisis
Preparedness Video |
|
Published on Monday, March 03, 2008.
The
Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta this past January released a video
on crisis preparedness. The timing of such a video being released is
suspicious considering the prospect of bank failures and an
inflationary collapse of the U.S. monetary system loom large. The
U.S. Dollar is at all-time lows and many top economists are
predicting that we are entering a very deep recession if not a
depression. Although the video focuses in on a potential disaster
like a terrorist attack or a weather related event, a financial
disaster easily fits into the scope of this video. The focus of the
video is on how the Federal Reserve can immediately bring cash back
into an area affected by a disaster. During a financial calamity,
this will be a key concern because physical forms of money will
reign supreme. Runs on the banks occurred frequently at the start of
the Great Depression and they could happen here on a frequent basis
if things get worse. The Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke even
made the prediction that we could soon see bank failures, so this is
a concern not just coming from various economists and pundits but
also from the top of this criminal banking system.

release issued by the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta.

In the
aftermath of a disaster, banks play a vital role, distributing cash to
their customers and ensuring that their customers are able to meet the
financial needs of their families and their businesses.
Drawing on the
experience of bankers who have weathered crisis situations, the
Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta developed Crisis Preparedness:
Reconnecting the Financial Lifeline, a DVD designed to assist bankers
with their institutions' emergency preparedness efforts. Each section
of the DVD profiles a facet of crisis preparedness, from preparing and
testing a plan to caring for employees to providing cash to customers
to working with banks and first responders.
The DVD
features interviews with bankers and Atlanta Fed staff. The examples
featured in the DVD emphasize the need for crisis preparedness and
practical steps institutions can take to be prepared. The DVD includes
supplemental in-depth interviews with these featured bankers.
The DVD can be
downloaded or ordered at the Atlanta Fed's Web site, http://www.frbatlanta.org/bank_info/crisis_preparedness.cfm.
What’s
interesting about the video is that it focuses in on how banks will
need to be able to make cash readily available in case of a disaster.
In the event of a disaster financial or otherwise that results in a
run on the banks, banks will not have enough cash to back all the
money that people will demand to have withdrawn. There are far more
digital credits stored on computers than there are physical paper
notes. This will be a huge problem and it appears as if they are
trying to address this problem in the video under the guise of other
types of disasters. Hurricane Katrina is referenced as a real life
example that bankers were forced to deal with. They even talked about
how they needed to dry out large quantities of Federal Reserve Notes
in order to put them back into circulation.
Last
year the U.S. Treasury Department conducted a disaster drill in
preparation for a potential financial crisis.
This video release appears to go hand and hand with the concerns that
the U.S. Treasury has and this video shows that they want their
employees to be aware of what steps they can taken in a potential
crisis. Either way, it is clear that the U.S. economy is on the brink
of a collapse with gold at all-time nominal highs and assorted
commodities going through the roof in U.S. Dollar denominated terms.
It is interesting that they would release this video at a time of
great economic uncertainty. Why would the Federal Reserve release a
video like this, if they didn't have concerns about a potential
economic disaster? It is highly doubtful that they would release this
video for the fun of it. One thing is for sure, the economy is not
looking good and you do not want to trust the Federal Reserve or any
of their member banks with your money. Buy gold and silver. These
precious metals will protect you from the inflation driven depression
that might be coming down the pipe more so than any crisis
preparedness video.

ALL KNOW it was an inside job,
they're in forced denial, and they just refuse to believe that their
leaders would execute them for profit and geo political maneuvering.
It’s called cognitive disassociation, its nothing really
complicated. Its just simple denial to keep them in a safe comfortable
bubble
"If there is a decay of conscience, the pulpit is responsible for
it. If the public press lacks moral discernment, the pulpit is
responsible for it. If the church is degenerate and worldly, the
pulpit is responsible for it. If the world loses its interest in
Christianity, the pulpit is responsible for it. If Satan rules in our
halls of legislation, the pulpit is responsible for it. If our
politics become so corrupt that the very foundations of our government
are ready to fall away, the pulpit is responsible for it." famed
