JmP6889928 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 TRUTH IN THIS QUOTE: 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.

She went from being the art editor for Seventeen Magazine in NYC to a town of 50 people in Vermont after her fiancee died (at 27 from an allergic reaction). Sent her wombats. She now teaches yoga and restores old barns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
