‘I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.’
Thomas Jefferson 1802
good quote, but I still don’t have respect for a man who raped slaves.

Slaves were seen as property, not that that makes up for his behavior, BUT those were the beliefs of the day… You wouldn’t think twice about putting your schlong into a blow up doll, IT was the same idea for slaves and slave masters. You know, you can be really smart in some areas and down right stupid in others, I think this qualifies for Jefferson.
I was wondering how long it would be before someone was going to bring up Jefferson’s despise of the banking system…He rallied against Banks (if I remember correctly) for much of his later years in life!
Late,

too bad the government does not even own the federal bank…
you now that banks can lend out 10x what they have in money in credit? so it’s like you give me a dollar… then i can lend out 10 to somebody else with interest… and this is how banks come to accumulate wealth. The move numbers on a page and lend out imaginary money and take in real things of value (your house, car, land, etc)
The Rothschilds…look them up. Once you see everything for what it is, it will make life much easier for all.

Hah… My economics teacher in high school was named Rothschild. Most devious, twisted, and shamelessly capitalistic motherfucker in the universe. It all makes sense now.
