“I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. Already they have raised up a moneyed aristocracy that has set the government at defiance. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.” — Thomas Jefferson
“If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of 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.” — Thomas Jefferson
Conventional invasions and usurpations of rights are easy to fight simply because they are completely visible. That is why today’s enemies of the Constitution do not use those methods. They prefer to skulk about, camouflaged in their nice suits and educated accents - writing multi-thousand page laws that are passed before anyone has a chance to seriously discuss the premise of the law, much less the hidden content - throwing the word “comprehensive” around as if it were a substitute for the Philosopher’s Stone - charging anyone that disagrees with racism, thus cheapening true violations, much like the word “rape” was used a few years ago to describe everything except actual rape.
Out with them all.
