"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 them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered.... I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.... The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs." Thomas Jefferson

People diss guys like Thomas Jefferson and other founders/early leaders of America all the time for any fault they may or may not have had, but the fact remains that they were more intelligent and wiser than most anyone we have at this point in history (and most of them were *much* younger than any so-called "leader" in today's America). *They were right*

before it gets wrapped around a tree limb and put to better use.
