The sixth president of the United States, John Quincy Adams (1825-1829), warned: "The central bank is an institution of the most deadly hostility existing against the principles and form of our Constitution."

And also “There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by the sword. The other is by debt."

Benjamin Franklin told us, "We have given you a republic—if you can keep it."

The price of freedom is eternal vigilance” said Thomas Jefferson. He also warned us when he said,

"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."
