Indeed, according to one estimate, Wall Street and corporate executives explain as much as 60 percent of the increasing share of income going to the top 1 percent the past 30 years.

Allies Against Empire Robert La Follette and Albert Jay Nock opposed war from left and right.
Government regulation of business in the progressive manner would end by augmenting the power of the master class, who always control any state system.

Thomas Jefferson on Politics & Government: Money & Banking
"The bank mania... is raising up a moneyed aristocracy in our country which has already set the government at defiance, and although forced at length to yield a little on this first essay of their strength, their principles are unyielded and unyielding. These have taken deep root in the hearts of that class from which our legislators are drawn, and the sop to Cerberus from fable has become history. Their principles lay hold of the good, their pelf of the bad, and thus those whom the Constitution had placed as guards to its portals, are sophisticated or suborned from their duties." --Thomas Jefferson to Josephus B. Stuart, 1817. ME 15:112
"Put down all banks, admit none but a metallic circulation that will take its proper level with the like circulation in other countries, and then our manufacturers may work in fair competition with those of other countries, and the import duties which the government may lay for the purposes of revenue will so far place them above equal competition." --Thomas Jefferson to Charles Pinckney, 1820. ME 15:280
"But it will be asked, are we to have no banks? Are merchants and others to be deprived of the resource of short accommodations, found so convenient? I answer, let us have banks; but let them be such as are alone to be found in any country on earth, except Great Britain. There is not a bank of discount on the continent of Europe (at least there was not one when I was there) which offers anything but cash in exchange for discounted bills." --Thomas Jefferson to John W. Eppes, 1813. ME 13:277
"No one has a natural right to the trade of a money lender, but he who has the money to lend. Let those then among us who have a moneyed capital and who prefer employing it in loans rather than otherwise, set up banks and give cash or national bills for the notes they discount. Perhaps, to encourage them, a larger interest than is legal in the other cases might be allowed them, on the condition of their lending for short periods only." --Thomas Jefferson to John W. Eppes, 1813. ME 13:277
"If the debt which the banking companies owe [i.e. own] be a blessing to anybody, it is to themselves alone, who are realizing a solid interest of eight or ten per cent on it. As to the public, these companies have banished all our gold and silver medium, which, before their institution, we had without interest, which never could have perished in our hands, and would have been our salvation now in the hour of war; instead of which they have given us two hundred million of froth and bubble, on which we are to pay them heavy interest, until it shall vanish into air... We are warranted, then, in affirming that this parody on the principle of 'a public debt being a public blessing,' and its mutation into the blessing of private instead of public debts, is as ridiculous as the original principle itself. In both cases, the truth is, that capital may be produced by industry, and accumulated by economy; but jugglers only will propose to create it by legerdemain tricks with paper." --Thomas Jefferson to John W. Eppes, 1813. ME 13:423

How Stephanopolous Tried to Save Hillary in 2008
“You are absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith,” said Obama carelessly. Stephanopoulos quickly corrected him with a sotto voce “Christian faith,” and Obama affirmed the correction. The rest is history.

Reflections on a Rotten Apple
In principle, prosperity might be very great, even if trade were very
bad. If a village were so fortunately situated that, for some reason, it
was easy for every family to keep its own chickens, to grow its own
vegetables, to milk its own cow and (I will add) to brew its own beer,
the standard of life and property might be very high indeed, even though
the long memory of the Oldest Inhabitant only recorded two or three
pure transactions of trade; if he could only recall the one far-off
event of his neighbour buying a new hat from a Gypsy’s barrow; or the
singular incident of Farmer Billings purchasing an umbrella.

Has Immigration Caused the Income Gaps Since 1774?
For example, immigration of Mexicans increased dramatically after 1965. According to a study by the Pew Research Center, they formed “the largest wave of immigration in history from a single country to the United States.” More than 52% were illegal immigrants. “Some 30% of all current U.S. immigrants were born in Mexico.” Read more: http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2015/05/has_immigration_caused_the_income_gaps_since_1774.html#ixzz3ZE9qnu36 Follow us: @AmericanThinker on Twitter | AmericanThinker on Facebook
