HOW DID JEFFERSON KNOW?
(Especially read the last quote from 1802.)
"When we get piled upon one another
in large cities, as in Europe , we shall
become as corrupt as Europe ." Thomas Jefferson "The democracy will cease to exist when you
take away from those who are willing to work
and give to those who would not." Thomas Jefferson "It is incumbent on every generation to
pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world." Thomas Jefferson "I predict future happiness for Americans if
they can prevent the government from
wasting the labors of the people under
the pretense of taking care of them." Thomas Jefferson "My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results
from too much government." Thomas Jefferson "No free man shall ever be
debarred the use of arms." Thomas Jefferson
"The strongest reason for the people
to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." Thomas Jefferson "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the
blood of patriots and tyrants." Thomas Jefferson "To compel a man to subsidize with his
taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical." Thomas Jefferson Thomas Jefferson also said this in 1802!:
"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."
