"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."

Im glad banks are private just look what the government has done to the fedral reserve. I would trust Thomas Jefferson with my finances he died in debt even after he sold all of his slaves and lived way out of his means. The problem is people like to Thomas Jefferson not the bank if you were constantly in debt would you like banks ?

I don't believe in the American dream anymore. This country just hates all immigrants except for illegals.

The federal reserve board is appointed by the president this it is part of the executive branch much like department of labor ect.  Look at government investments in the last  few years for the most part they are doing poorly or went bankrupt. If they ran a bank we would be trillions more debt because the bank would be less efficient and would be more careless with money because they would not be accountable to shareholders (profits) and could not go bankrupt.  Just look at the USPS billions in debt and has a monopoly on delivering letters.  Fed ex and ups only can deliver packages, they do it faster, more efficiently and post a profit. The government is not the answer.

Roor I'm with you, Jimmy Carter was an incredible president. The video delves into the fact that Reagan really screwed the pooch, he was a puppet.

I finally got the video to work. So this is what i got from the video Reagan fired all those people because of the carter depression.  Reagan is responsible for companies making a profit. Reagan is responsible for everything bad that happened after his presidency even though the democrats the "working mans" party controlled congress and the presidency numerous times.  Reagan employed some one from the private sector he is evil.....People in the private sector have more experience than career politicians. Reagan got us out of the carter depression with his evil "policies".  Both democrats and rulbilcans have changed his policies and control the country yet it's Reagan's fault. That's like me blaming fdr for social security going bankrupt even though politicians have raided it's funds, distorted it and failed to modernize it. No its the dead guys fault read some books and stop watching Moore propaganda
