Thanks Graham. That article on Harvard is amazing... you couldn't make this stuff up! Dear oh dear...

There are a couple of quotes I'd like to contribute, myself:

"We are all Keynesians now," - Richard Nixon

"The central bank is an institution of the most deadly hostility existing against the Principles and form of our Constitution. I am an Enemy to all banks discounting bills or notes for anything but Coin. If the American People allow private banks to control the issuance of their currency, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the People of all their Property until their Children will wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered." attributed to Thomas Jefferson

Yep, that's pretty much it. Fraudsters and financial terrorists, the lot of them.

Max is always good value.

Very few people want to hear this and even fewer are facing up to it.

Well, like he said, if serfdom is what the people want, then that is what they shall get!

I'm a huge fan of On The Edge, particularly as Max has Stacy to reel him in a little

If you're puzzled as to why US foreclosures on homes are so alarmingly high, it's because mortgagees in negative equity can hand the keys in to the bank and just walk away, and rent a trailer/apartment/motel room etc instead. I find that to be a very interesting difference in law.

Apparently, he died so penniless he couldn't even afford to free his own slaves. He should have gone into fortune telling instead of politics.
