Britain Regains America
Give me control of a nation’s money supply, and I care not who makes its laws.
Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), one of the Founding Fathers and third president of the United States of America, gave the following warning to the young nation:
“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.”1
This warning was soon ignored, and with the establishment of the First Bank of the United States in 1791, the money lenders of the Old World were able to avenge Britains defeat on the battlefield. It took only 8 years from the conclusion of the American Revolutionary War in 1783 for England to regain control of America’s money supply.
