Read what Paul Warburg, architect of the Fedl Reserve & the New Deal says about FDR.

As Thomas Paine wrote in The Rights of Man (1792):

Great part of that order which reigns among mankind is not the effect of government. It has its origin in the principles of society and the natural constitution of man. It existed prior to government, and would exist if the formality of government was abolished. The mutual dependence and reciprocal interest which man has upon man, and all the parts of civilised community upon each other, create that great chain of connection which holds it together. The landholder, the farmer, the manufacturer, the merchant, the tradesman, and every occupation, prospers by the aid which each receives from the other, and from the whole. Common interest regulates their concerns, and forms their law; and the laws which common usage ordains, have a greater influence than the laws of government. In fine, society performs for itself almost everything which is ascribed to government.

Why do you defend what the Founders were against lock, stock and barrel?

Your handle speaks volumes

Perhaps you need to understand who the "Founders" were. They were those who wrote the Constitution. Tom Paine was NOT one of them being in France fomenting that Revolution at the time. He was only saved from execution by Washington's intervention.

The Founders were not advocates of the nutty radicalism you seem to believe in. The greatest of them were Washington and his favorite, Hamilton, whom I am sure you hate.

That is not a quote from Warburg either but someone else's summation of his book apparently. But Warburg was one of the minions of Rothschield you were condemning on another thread so why would you care if he didn't like FDR?
Any competent analysis of that quotation would show it to be at best mysticism without a clue as to how the financial world works. Thomas Paine was a fine rhetoritician but, like Jefferson, not really a man with a practical understanding of economics.
