"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Government's Perennial Enemy
"That's why we ultimately outlawed real money in favor of political paper, so government could be unrestrained financially in dealing with any problem anywhere. Funding government through taxation is never enough because the victims might retaliate. What's needed is what we have: the arcane subterfuge of a cloistered cartel. What's needed is a central bank quietly mulcting the masses while it feeds the world's power-holders. That way nobody revolts." Column by George F. Smith.
