Central banks are a scam. The American Revolution was fought largely because of the dislike/distrist of the Bank of England.
Jefferson hated banks.
“I sincerely believe that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies, and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity under the name of funding is but swindling futurity on a large scale.” –Thomas Jefferson to John Taylor, 1816. ME 15:23
Beautiful quote and timeless.
