The world's private-for-profit-monopoly-central-debt banks, like our "Federal Reserve" and the UN banks, are fronts for the real plutocrats in the world today.

Owners of your nations bank can be citizens of your country or of any other, but they are always anonymous, and always the ULTRA super rich (Usr), and always above all law, and immune to all taxation. They rake in massive profits directly from the country's national debt, which their bank creates by "buying" government securities with nothing but a bookkeeping entry. The Usr reap the nation's wealth as payments of income taxes and as payments on the massive loans made by their member banks to individuals an to nations.

The "super rich" are simply puppets of the Usr, as are all governments of any form. All "revolutionaries" and all wars are financed by these banks. Wars create the most debt & so are highly favored by these vampires.

The first of their kind began prior to any banks and were goldsmiths who kept people's gold for safety and issued receipts for it - the first paper money.

The borrower is servant to the lender..
Goldsmiths, were an early plutocracy, who soon found they could issue more gold receipts than they held gold in safe-keeping. And abracadabra the magic of fraudulent fractional reserve banking - which we are taught is just fine, when it is a root of the ulra-obscene wealth of all ULTRA plutocrats and of all corruption.

A gold based currency is a darling of the Usr because only they can truly hoard it, then have it confiscated, then finally have a paper fiat currency based on debt nationalized. This debt-fiat is the direct opposite of a paper fiat money based on the good-faith-and-CREDIT of a nation's commerce. Such a debt-free fiat currency is as much a boon to a nation as debt-based currency is a disaster.

And so the dog (Pluto) walks the owner or "the tail wags the dog".

Any administration, or ruling body,
that is so out of touch, or coloured by money,
that they might as well be on Pluto.
The Plutocracy in our Land
was seemingly separated from its
living, working people
by vast, galactic distances.

Plutocracy is the rule by the super-rich international capitalists and their retainers; the press, office holders, spies and thugs. In a plutocracy the middle class is controlled though taxation, low-cost imports (free trade) and corrupt politicians and in a communist system the middle class is exterminated. The perfect plutocracy consists of two classes only—the plutocrats and their overseers and the subsistence-level poor. The degree of economic inequality is staggering as is the low level of social mobility.
Although the word plutocracy has disappeared from some modern dictionaries, as if it no longer exists, it is in fact the only name to correctly describe many modern governments.

Government controlled by the wealthiest members of a society, usually through stealth. Money buys legislators and bureaucrats and is used to dupe voters through movements asserted to be conservative.
Conservative movements using concepts of "retaining our liberties" and "taking back the government" are usually funded by the plutocracy.
