Wow... No wonder I have been lately feeling Socialism is good and the millennials are all gravitating towards it...After witnessing from close quarters of what was happening around me in NYC IN 2008. I arrived at a Firm Conclusion that USA and Europe are the most corrupt entities in the world, Maybe far more than China & India, as I had originally thought.. at least there are no Oligarchs controlling the people’s lives there... it is only the people changing their choices of which political/economic systems that they want to follow....
Was it not Henry Flagler, a co-founder of Standard Oil,who conveniently died shortly before he was to vote on the Fed in May 1913 by falling down a flight of stairs.
As I recall,he was going to vote against the Fed formation?
Amazing how those things works out. There was no federal income tax before that,I beleive.
