WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT
TAXLESS OLD AGE PENSION PLAN
(Robert E. Gregg. Mineral Welt* bu-:E»e>'- roan. t> the author
of “Gregg's Taxle-v* Pen don Plan h" Thk new plan hs> rrv-t with
Mich unanimous approval wherever it i> dir*~us>ed that »e feel it
is worth reprinting in full for it* new- value. The text of Mr
Gregg’s plan follow * >:
It's purpose is to further the XaDocai adopt:or. of t
which provides a way :: pension every citizen in the
States. 65 years of age cr Tier w.thc a: the necessity . f i
other than taxes already in existence. The method of
tlishing this is described in the following which was omgt
by the founder of this plan
An uneasiness exist among the people of t
there is a political unrest. Something is wrong. I: is an ideal-con-
dition to permit false agitators to foster discontent and a proper
time to make plain to the people the cause so that by the truth
this discontent is not fanned into a flame of resentment tc burst
out to everyone's rum but is used to react to the security of the
citizens of our country
Cause of Inrest.
This unrest is caused by the impover.siDr.em :: the people
through financing methods imposed by the w:l. of a tuny group
who. through this method, sap a continuous stream of money
from the pockets of the people. The unrest echos in the minds
of the aged and infirm who seek old age security thr ugh the
medium of an Old Age Pension. Humanity surges m the breasts
of Americans in a willingness to furnish the security and this
sought for pension would be provided if a way could be found
to finance the same without the additional burden of more
taxes for tire. p-upccc on am. already tcc heavily tar: our:, mod
peoplx O r generous people are mystified and resentfu. at the
thought of the most wealthy and propse?*ous Nation on earth
being unable to privde for its aged and infirm. This cloud of
mystery becomes more contusing when it is considered that now
when we are sorely in need of relief and means are not available,
our banks are overflowing with money. Our rich are growing
richer while credits grow tighter and living becomes more dif-
ficult for the masses.
Gregg Offers Remedy.
WHAT 15 WRONG’ There must be a remedv and there is.
It is the GREGG TAXLESS PENSION PLAN. Our forefather,
oppressed, signned a Declaration of Independence and gave us
a new Government which by the constitution gams its powers
by consent of the governed.
Congress was authorized to create money-to borrow monev-
to use the resources of the United States to establish a value for
its money and its credit.
Congress was not 'directed to borrow money from any one
source. Congress is supposed to borrow from the source offering
the greatest benefit to the people of the United States.
Congress was authorized to take a piece of paper, print there-
on am. oh-ligation of the United States and designate this piece
of paper money or it could be called a bond.
To maintain a value for the money or the bond. Congress was
authorized to make the obligation a lien against taxable property
in the United States. The obligation was to be paid from money
secured by taxation. If the taxes were not paid the property was
confiscated.
Under these conditions it would have been practical to print
money: place it immediately into circulation without other cost
to the people.
Financiers saw that if this was done there w . ui i be no profit
for the financier.
In order to inject themselves into the scheme of things and
make a profit on every dollar issued, financiers advocated that
the proper way to do things would be to issue bonds, secured by
property: arrange to pay interest on these bonds and then have
the Government sell the bonds to the financiers. This plan was
put into operation and has been in operation every since. It is
the device through which 95 per cent of the wealth of the coun-
try continually finds its way into the hands of 5 per cent of the
people.
Public Debt.
The needs of our country has grown until we find a public debt
in excess of Forty Billions of Dallam. This includes the debt of
the Government: of all State of ail counties, cities and of school
districts.
This debt is represented by the bonds outstanding on which
nterest is paid at the rate of 4c per year per dollar on an aver-
ege, on each dollar of indebtness.
This interest obligation amounts to approximately one billion
r;x hundred million dollars per year. v
