A big mistake

Woodrow Wilson signed the 1913 Federal Reserve Act. A few years later he wrote:

"I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the civilized world no longer a Government by free opinion, no longer a Government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a Government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men."


We’ve been slaves ever since.

So.... Make America Great Again wants to take us back to before the great depression?


You know, when women and poc couldn't vote? How is that better than 1920s through the 2010s?


I'm not going to disagree with his retrospective, but you're clearly pointing out that "The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men". Yea, that's bad.



But what is better? What is greater? What is the good future that MAGA wants to pull back from the past?


Make America Great Again implies that America is NOT currently great, and that it was great some time in the past. When was this?

Sure, but that doesn't answer the question.



If all the boomers who are in office want to roll back this country to how it was when their grandparents were alive in the 1890s, then my only response to that is fuck off, old fucks.



I've yet to see anyone provide a list of what greatness they want to restore this country to. Because they don't know. It's all talk.



Unless people genuinely believe that living in a country with hardly any infrastructure (highways, running water, electricity, central heat/air), fewer rights (woe be you if you aren't a white male land owner), less availability of goods outside your immediate area, worse sanitation and healthcare, is GREATER than what we have now... it's just big babies going goo-goo gaa-gaa maga!


Yea, things were shitty in the 1990s, 80s, etc, all the way back to the 1890s, 1880s.. Progress is not linear, but it is almost always an improvement on what we had a few generations ago.



Things in the 2020s aren't great. But they are better than they were in the 1920s, and 1820s. It's just funny how people want to 'roll back' to the past when all they can see behind them is through rose colored glasses.


However it is rare for there to be people able to look back on the intimidate past and say "oh geez, that was a mistake that we are going to pay for next decade", such as with Wilson.


Ironically enough, I can't think of any politician within the last ten years to outright say 'Yea the thing we did 4-5 years ago was a mistake, and if we don't try to rectify it, then people in the future are going to have to pay for it dearly'..... Nobody from either party. Well, nobody new to saying it. There are a few who have been preaching the same thing for decades and they are turning out to be more or less true.

Hmmm....

Woodrow Wilson isn't really the former POTUS who's making headlines this week. If I didn’t know any better, I'd suggest this is just yet another distraction.

Currency with a foundation on real things is strong currency, because you don't need to have a degree in magic numbers to explain how it works to the layman.


Instead... 'just trust us bro! your money is worth whatever we want it to be worth!'
Yea right. How many times do we need to see history repeat itself?

If you can post something germane to the topic, step up.

There appears to be some question over the quote's authenticity. Or at least whether the first 2 sentences were part of the rest of it.

Questions for the OP: 1) How "concentrated" was our system of credit before the Federal Reserve was created in 1913? How did a single banker - J.P. Morgan - play such a big role in stopping the Financial Panic of 1907?

2) If the Fed is so dangerously powerful, dominant, and able to control the "growth of the nation", why did it let the Great Depression drag on for a decade?
