I don't know WHY it worked (will work), though. I'm not an economist, and consider the fact that it worked not too bad simply one of the mysteries of life.
But there is more than trust at work -- there is active, purposeful manipulation of resources, which are invented out of thin air and extended to the masses, and then withdrawn, creating "not enuf" in circulation to attend to obligations.

I'm describing a system that was put in place precisely for its manipulatability to the benefit of the bankers. I'm not talking "money" on the level of LoA or public confidence.

This system is a very big deal. Kennedy was endeavoring to dismantle it prior to his assassination, so it's not something to take lightly. It's there for a purpose, and is being worked very diligently, and not for the benefit of the masses.
