If real citizenship is defined as being able to use the fiat of one's Nation in all its forms, then the US has only 7000 or so real citizens since that's how many private sector accounts there are at the Federal Reserve.
In other words, only the banks and other depository institutions with accounts at the Fed are real citizens.
Anyone who buys a Treasury security has a savings account at the Fed.
You admitted this before. Konrad
That's what you say; please don't implicate me in your false assertions. It's the US Treasury that has an account at the Fed while Treasury security buyers have accounts with the US Treasury.
Now you've done an about-face.
Again. ibid
Not at all; I said "If real citizenship is defined as being able to use the fiat of one's Nation ..." aa [bold added]
A Treasury security allows one to SAVE fiat but not USE fiat. Otoh, a checking/debit account at the Fed allows one to both SAVE AND USE fiat.
In order to be free of the usury cartel, citizens need to be able to both save and use their Nation's fiat in account form just like depository institutions do.

In order to have an account, you need a bank.
The US Treasury is not a bank.
Try again.
