He discouraged speculation that the plan would include the nationalization of some banks.

All your banks are belong to us.

Exactly, nationalization. We’re going to be a tin pot dictatorship like those in South America by the time this is over.

“You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by

legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person

receives without working for, another person must work for

without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody

anything that the government does not first take from

somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that

they do not have to work because the other half is going to

take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea

that it does no good to work because somebody else is going

to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the

end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.”

~~~ The late Dr. Adrian Rogers , 1931 to 2005 ~~~

“…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. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs. “

Letter to the Secretary of the Treasury Albert Gallatin (1802)

So much for “moral authority”.
