Follow the example of Abe Lincoln (and similar ideas of William Jennings Bryan and others) and replace the privately-owned Federal Reserve Banks with a truly publicly owned, Federal Banking System which could issue the currency and fiat money for all PUBLIC needs, thus not creating any further debt - and also enable us to pay off our present debt! This banking system could issue all funds needed for public housing, elder care, universal healthcare, education, and green energy development!

Break up the powerful banking cartel by nationalizing the Federal Reserve and ending the federal debt by restoring to government the power to create money.
