To gather support for the league of nations

We intend to begin on the first of February unrestricted submarine warfare. We shall endeavor in spite of this to keep the United States of America neutral. In the event of this not succeeding, we make Mexico a proposal of alliance on the following basis: make war together, make peace together, generous financial support and an understanding on our part that Mexico is to reconquer the lost territory in Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona. The settlement in detail is left to you. You will inform the President of the above most secretly as soon as the outbreak of war with the United States of America is certain and add the suggestion that he should, on his own initiative, invite Japan to immediate adherence and at the same time mediate between Japan and ourselves. Please call the President's attention to the fact that the ruthless employment of our submarines now offers the prospect of compelling England in a few months to make peace.
Signed, ZIMMERMANN

Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Wilson was a plant who governed exactly opposite of how he campaigned. Brought in both central banking and the income tax which created the fallen monster America has become today.

to make sure England and France survived as nation states and paid off all their debts to the US banks.

>The founding fathers were all non-interventionist

When will this meme die? Thomas Jefferson explicitly said that he thought the US should promote revolution abroad until all oppressive governments were destroyed and freedom reined over all people. Does that sound like non-interventionism to you?

>income tax is bad

>The government taking people's money is a good thing

tax it as you earn it. tax it as you spend it. tax it as you invest it. tax it when you die. tax the land you bought with your income, regularly.

It's for public programs that benefit everyone you dunce

if only.

most of the US tax revenue is wasted on unnecessary defense spending and paying money to the banks.

In theory. In practice, many of those programs are tremendous wastes of money. At worst, they are a ponzi scheme where each generation cannibalizes the next.

>his forefathers wanted the US to have a non interventionist foreign policy?
I love this meme. Wilson didn't invent foreign interventionism but he did start the trend of "making the world safe for democracy" by force. Which generally translates to giving politicians moral ammunition to convince the American public to support invasions or "humanitarian interventions" or some nonsense like that.

Wasn't Jefferson's "Empire of Liberty" explicitly built on peaceful commerce instead of military invasions? It's a short step to humanitarian justifications for war but I think there's a distinction. Commerce with all etc.

>Collecting more taxes than is absolutely necessary is robbery
>US is literally operating at a deficit

if they didn't america wouldn't have been able to
1. pressure britain to relinquish the colonies

2. chain europe in servitude for the during of the marshall plan repayments

3. extend that servitude through nato

Exactly we need to spend more on healthcare and education
And that's why we need to fight corruption and capitalists who take advantage of the system

>income tax doesn't hurt jew
Why would you implement something that hurts you
>be all high and mighty about non interventionist policy
>it's just so you can have good trade ties with everybody and not be drawn into war

Balfour Declaration

>Central Powers were winning
>Ottomon Empire had control over Palestine at the time
>Ottomon Empire and Central Powers had to be defeated
>International Jewry from all over (including German Jews) Europe get together
>They propose that in order to gain Palestine, the Allies had to win. Allies were on the verge of losing.
>Jews promise Britain that they will drag America into the war as long as Palestine is given to the Jews
>America enters war through false flag attack on supply ship. Germany is blamed
>Allies win
>Ottomon Empire collapsed.
>Palestine is now occupied by Britain
>Jewry intensifies

And this is the great stab in the back Hitler was referring to.

He signed over the management of our currency to private entities. You tell me.

>Central Powers were winning

Literally when?

But the Allies were winning long before the US entered the war.

The Federal Reserve is a government agency. The chairmen is appointed by the President, and approved by congress. All "profits" generated are deposited directly into the US Treasury.

Not only that, the German government itself made it clear that they didn't care about US involvement at all. The US had a very large navy, but a small army at the time, and the Germans believed that they could stop American troops from ever reaching Europe by using u-boats to sink them. America's big impact on WW1 was economic, not military. By continuing to trade with Britain throughout the war, despite the risks posed by u-boats, the US allowed the British economy to survive when it would have otherwise imploded.

Not really. Germany was untouched during the war, prior to America entering.

Staying out of the war as long as we did was pretty amazing in retrospect. We weren't "dragged in," it was a pretty sound and reasonable political decision.

The forefathers made pleeeeeenty of "mistakes." Trying to use a late 18th century mindset in the early 20th century would have (and still is) clown shit.

>The Federal Reserve is a government agency.

No it's not. It's an independent agency.

Pro-tip, if your "CEO" must be appointed by the President, and approved by the Senate, you're not "independent."

>it was a pretty sound and reasonable political decision.
Why?

The Federal Reserve System considers itself "an independent central bank because its monetary policy decisions do not have to be approved by the President or anyone else in the executive or legislative branches of government, it does not receive funding appropriated by the Congress, and the terms of the members of the Board of Governors span multiple presidential and congressional terms."

You say that like its a bad thing. Could you imagine if people voted on interest rates? Or even just the government? It has been, and would be, a fucking disaster.

Income tax, defense spending, and big government are neither inherently good nor bad, merely ways of marshalling and organizing a society's resources into purposes deemed worthwhile by the polity.

>implied I said that

It's literally on their website and on Wikipedia

Okay, you are correct in that the Federal Reserve is intentionally designed in such a way that it is difficult for other parts of government to interfere. But it is still a government agency. They don't get to keep majority of their "profits." They get dumped directly into the US treasury. A privately-owned bank gets to keep all its profits (with the except of those taken through taxation).

Why didn't he get involved sooner? Could have saved millions of lives in Europe, possibly have killed Hitler on the battlefield, prevented the signing of Brest-Litovisk and Versailles, America could have turned the tides so fucking fast, Wilson is a pussy for not getting involved in the great war sooner.

WWII isn't WWI. Even into 1918 there was still a very real possibility of German victory.
US loaned massive amounts of money to France and Britain, if they lost they wouldn't be in a position to pay debts.

>Even into 1918 there was still a very real possibility of German victory.

Really? Even with their own navy starting to mutiny?

French Army mutinied in 1917, and they won the war.

You mean 1917. Germany fucked it up when they wanted a real victory over Russia with forcing Brest Litovsk. Less occupied areas mean more than a million soldiers on the western front, while they still get their POWs back and the promised grain supplies from Ukraine.

I guess you have a point there. The Germans probably saw the French Army mutiny as a sign that victory was close.

Because he was a fascist who loved tyranny and unnecessary death. It's why he basically set the stage for Hitler, who took a lot of notes from Wilson's fascist, tyrannical policies.

One of the most outright evil and malicious global rulers alongside Stalin tbhfamalam
