Why Is Money Important?

"The drive for power knows no limits; its rationale is to be as god, and hence it is itself law in its every wish. Total warfare, in and out of war, and total conspiracy have as their goal total control. This means the control of men through their minds, which is achieved by controlling news media, schools, and churches, and also the control of men economically, in particular through the control of money." R. J. Rushdoony, The Nature of the American System (Vallecito: Ross House Books, 2001), 164-165.
