@riprandy318 I just read your comment ; I sincerely appreciate you sharing your wisdom here on YouTube. Seems to be a total summary of whats wrong here in the US.

With selective choice of quotes from any of our founders it is not particularly difficult to paint a positive view of one's personal political leanings with a biased brush. Perhaps not each & every precept from society lived 235 years ago holds the exact context today from which it sprung. Consider Jefferson's quote, which due to character limitations I'll post but a snippet "As that (human mind) becomes more developed, more enlightened..institutions must advance to keep pace with the times."

A lot of that is way out of context, and one of those quotes even removed about 10 words from the middle of it, and ended the last sentence early, which made it appear as though it means the opposite of what he said.

Damnable propaganda.

ok 1st of all, he says that every generation needs to pay its debt which is how the bankers make their money and a large part of why they make the wars, wasting the labors - i think this is regarding the socialistic workless world they are creating, then he promotes the depopulation, we need weapons to kill each other, don't pay the church (good, but it's also talking about staying away from stuff you don't believe, and the anti-conspiracy attitude of the english is strongly ingrained)

[KellyStarks]

Jefferson was one of best of the founding fathers, one of the most critical to defining what the nation is - its liberties, freedom, opportunity.

..naturally hes often hated now.
