How the US used to fund wars

For any readers out there (Bueller? Bueller?) take everything I write as pretty much nothing.  Verify all information via google before broadcasting it as the truth.

The United States is required to declare war through Congress.  In fact, ONLY congress has the power to declare war in the US.

Here is a funny fact for all to LOL at.   The last official declared war of the United States was against Germany during WWII.

Seriously, last official US war was against Hitler, likely before any of us on the internet were even born!

So the reasonable American philosopher would ask...... why doesn't the US declare war??

I will tell you all exactly why.   Because a public declaration of war also brings up a public discussion on how the war is paid for.   It is essentially a spending bill for destruction.

WW2 (the last declared war) was partially funded through additional income tax, and the sales of war bonds.   The first federal income tax was a result of WW1 (since they had to at least try and pay for it).   The first government with-held income tax was a result of WW2.

The general population did not revolt because the tax basis during WW2 was much lower than it was today.  The "victory tax" was suppose to be a temporary tax, but surprise!... it stayed.   The population of the US also bought 180 billion in war bonds, because they had money to save, and somewhat believed in the war with Japan.

Do not take this as fact.  This is my opinion.    The US involvement in ALL wars since WWII allows them to ask the federal reserve to print money, to debase the debt of the prior wars.  We have a perpetual war machine leading this country.   They are running from their debt avalanche by starting war after war.

Prediction - The current situation in Syria will escalate to the scale of a minor world war.   I bet .5% of US citizens know anything about it, why we are there, or what Obama even says is at states.

The Presidents start wars without discussion on funding because they know the federal reserve will back them up.

Here is a great extra long article on war and inflation here

So how does this relate to Bitcoin?   I believe that gold, silver, and bitcoin are the only assets safe from Big Ben Bernake.  The use of bitcoin also says "We dont want your dollars anyways" to the war machines that lead this country.
