Btw...of those opposed to the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 that were still alive had convened for the holidays on dec.19, 1913 thinking the bill was a working document to be discussed further. Guess again!!! Please tell me how today's politicians can compare with the deceptive politics of over 100 years ago. Those politicians were playing chess at a very high level...meanwhile biden and trump are playing checkers imo.

"Passage of the Federal Reserve Act (1913)
The Glass Bill (the House version of the final Federal Reserve Act) had passed the House on September 18, 1913 by 287 to 85. On December 19, 1913, the Senate passed their version by a vote of 54-34. More than forty important differences in the House and Senate versions remained to be settled, and the opponents of the bill in both houses of Congress were led to believe that many weeks would yet elapse before the Conference bill would be ready for consideration.

The Congressmen prepared to leave Washington for the annual Christmas recess, assured that the Conference bill would not be brought up until the following year. Now the money creators prepared and executed the most brilliant stroke of their plan. In a single day, they ironed out all forty of the disputed passages in the bill and quickly brought it to a vote. On Monday, December 22, 1913, the bill was passed by the House 282-60 and the Senate 43-23."

You know, those keys--the keys to the Titanic's binocular box--are pretty primitive. The lock could have been picked with a hairpin.

Women should always play a greater role than they do.
