    It’s kinda funny (in a sad way) that all the things the founding fathers explicitly warned against (two party system, fractional reserve banking, partisan courts) have ALL come to pass and with the exact consequences originally predicted. I guess people just refuse to learn from history.

      Too bad they did nothing to prevent those things they were afraid of.

      The only one who didn’t like a central bank was Jefferson but that was because he was a fucking moron with money and constantly owed money to banks.
