And just like Thomas Jefferson said "I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies."
I wish this were true, that Thomas Jefferson said this, but a proliferation of this quote attributed to Jefferson does make it anything Jefferson actually said. Especially when everyone who cites this quote as a Jefferson quote cannot give the precise source of the quote. Did Jefferson say this in a public speech, or was it something he wrote in a letter to someone else?
Banking institutions are more dangerous to peoples freedom than standing armies. I believe this to be wholly and undeniably true. That truth should not be given an opportunity to be smeared or disregarded as a lie, or false, just because it has been falsely attributed to Jefferson. If Jefferson said this, then someone, somewhere must know when and where he said it. If Jefferson never said it, it doesn't change the truth of what has been said, only the truth of who said it. Even so, such a mis-attribution only serves as ammunition to those who vehemently oppose freedom.
