Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Primal Root-Causes of the Decline of the British Empire: 1876-1911, an Appeal to His Majesty King George V In my last "Manifesto" published early in the present year, I stated that it was not my intention to issue any more publications as to the primal root-causes which I have been prognosticating during the past 30 years would be answerable for Britain´s National, Individual, and Economic Ruin. However, at the urgent request of certain men interested in the special subjects with which I have dealt, I publish this pamphlet in the shape of a summary of "Financial Facts" abstracted from my previous publications. I do so without any further arguments or fresh proofs of the Truth of my views. I merely state certain Facts which I challenge any Englishman to disprove in writing. I am further prepared to substantiate those Facts on oath versus oath before any tribunal composed of fair-minded and honourable English gentlemen, whose views are unbiased and whose credentials are unimpeachable. I sincerely trust, in the interests of the Empire, that my challenge will be at once accepted. I maintain that the bulk of Britain´s Financial Ruin, as represented by the estimated sum of £9,770,000,000 hereafter enumerated, has been primarily due to the widespread ramifications of the stupendous losses and depreciations collectively in its Agriculture, Trade, and Finance since 1876; that these depreciations and losses (which have naturally affected Labour and wages as well as Employers) have been caused, directly or indirectly, by the combined disastrous results arising out of the manifold financial panics and agricultural and trade crises since that year; that ninety percent. Of these results have been due to International Financial and Commercial Gambling Operations conjointly with the Price-Conspiracies on behalf of the "Bulls" or the "Bears" under the international option, future, and warrant gambling systems in fictitious or non-existing stocks and shares, raw materials, and the products of the soil; and that these conspiracies have only been made feasible since the re-introduction into Great Britain in 1876 of the said international gambling systems and operations. It will be noticed that not only has it been British and Irish Stock Exchange Securities which have so enormously depreciated, but likewise British and Irish Agricultural land, certain traders´, and all agricultural landlords´ and farmers´ capital, while most of our important National industries, as well as the Church and Clergy, the higher, middle, and labouring classes, country towns and villages, buildings, house property, &c., &c., have been most disastrously financially affected.
