1861: President Abraham Lincoln (16th President of the United States from 1860 till his assassination in 1865) approaches the big banks in New York to try to obtain loans to support the ongoing American civil war. As these large banks were heavily under the influence of the Rothschilds, they offer him a deal they know he cannot accept, 24% to 36% interest on all monies loaned. Lincoln is very angry about this high level of interest and so he prints his own debt free money and informs the public that this is now legal tender for both public and private debts. 1862: By April $449,338,902 worth of Lincoln's debt free money has been printed and distributed. He states of this, "We gave the people of this republic the greatest blessing they ever had, their own paper money to pay their own debts." That same year The Times of London publishes a story containing the following statement, "If that mischievous financial policy, which had its origin in the North American Republic, should become indurated down to a fixture, then that government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off debts and be without a debt. It will have all the money necessary to carry on its commerce.It will become prosperous beyond precedent in the history of civilized governments of the world. The brains and the wealth of all countries will go to North America. That government must be destroyed or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe."

The people from the south did not like him. They liked to have slaves. Lincoln did not allow slavery in America.

I think the government had some input to some degree at that time and other reason too.

Abraham Lincoln ( 1809-1865 ) was shot by a man named John Wilkes Booth. John liked slavery and did not want President Lincoln to stop it everywhere. He shot him on April 14, 1865, but Lincoln didn't die instantly. He still had time to live. But he couldn't be cured. So he died on April 15, 1865, at 7:22 AM.
