 uh...duh...is "Treasury Bonds" the same as "U.S. Savings Bonds"? The ones that folks used to buy from the Post Office?

In the "Nineteen Forties" my Wife used to buy "U.S. War Bonds" in her elementary school in Jacksonville, Florida. She says that the kids would pay a quarter, or more, a week for a stamp to glue into a "book" to earn the bond. The plan was for these bonds to pay for future education or whatever. This program was helping the war effort (II) effort and to help the kids get money for college. Pretty neat, as one way,  for getting the populace involved in meanigful exchange with Our Government.

I was thinking, wondering, if U.S. Savings Bonds are still being offered? And further, if it wouldn't be better for We The People to buy U.S. Savings Bonds, rather than feeding the new world order through the Federal Reserve Bank? The proceeds from the "U.S. Savings Bonds" would go directly into Our Treasury instead of the bankster's coffers.

I know. Duh. Probably a stupid idea. But, I still wonder if the Treasury Bonds are the same as the U.S. Savings Bonds?
