"We are infinitely better off without treaties of commerce with any nation."
--Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 1815.
"I hope we shall... crush in its birth the aristocracy of our moneyed corporations, which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength and bid defiance to the laws of our country."
--Thomas Jefferson to George Logan, 1816. FE 10:69
