    Very Interesting Quote
    In light of the present financial crisis, it's interesting to read what
    Thomas Jefferson said in 1802:
    '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.
