The Fox News arm of the Rupert Murdoch syndicate has been busily demeaning the brave people with Occupy Wall Street who are risking their safety to tell the corporate overlords and their criminal banking enterprise that we've had enough of paying for their excesses. Apparently, before the story ran, they missed the fact that one of our "founding fathers" who are so quoted and misquoted on Fox actually agrees with the protesters.
And I sincerely believe, with you, that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies; and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity, under the name of funding, is but swindling futurity on a large scale. -Thomas Jefferson, in a letter to to John Taylor, Monticello, 28 May 1816.
