“ 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. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.”
Thomas Jefferson.
To all the so-called, right-wing fanatics out there that support the right and are ready to dismiss the president and the so-called left: Ever wonder what the King of England called this radical thinker, one of the founding fathers of this country known as the “United States of America”? Most likely…a radical, a revolutionary, a nut, a whack-job, a putz. Of course, they could not have called him a communist or a socialist. So for all the right-wing supporters out there, if I were to go out there and speak in the same manner as Thomas Jefferson, would you view me as insane or merely ill-informed? I have been accused of being off my nut for my political leanings. Yet I see no difference in some of my statements then I have from those such as Thomas Jefferson or other of the sacred founding fathers. Ahem…for the record, all were revolutionary. But that was so long ago. Revolutionary thought these days is dismissed into the category of socialism or communist. Such a nice, neat and tidy label for those who are not about changing a single goddamned thing.
