Why Thomas Jefferson Opposed The Creation of a Central Bank
A Founding Father’s Opinion Concerning the Constitutionality of a Federal Bank, 1791
Though it is common to discuss Andrew Jackson’s opinion about a national bank, it is far less common to hear Thomas Jefferson’s version of things. Here, Jefferson lays out, systematically, his views on finance and the nature of a bank. The existence of the Federal Reserve in contemporary times simply shows how far the present regime is from the mind of the Founding Fathers.
 
By Thomas Jefferson
 
The bill for establishing a national bank undertakes among other things: 1.) To form the subscribers into a corporation; 2.) To enable them in their corporate capacities to receive grants of land; and so far is against the laws of mortmain;1 3.) To make alien subscribers capable of holding lands, and so far is against the laws of alienage; 4.) To transmit these lands, on the death of a proprietor, to a certain line of successors; and so far changes the course of descents; 5.) To put the lands out of the reach of forfeiture or escheat, and so far is against the laws of forfeiture and escheat; 6.) To transmit personal chattels to successors in a certain line and so far is against the laws of distribution; 7.) To give them the sole and exclusive right of banking under the national authority; and so far is against the laws of monopoly; 8.) To communicate to them a power to make laws paramount to the laws of the States; for so they must be construed, to protect the institution from the control of the State legislatures, and so, probably, they will be construed. 
I consider the foundation of the Constitution as laid on this ground: That “all powers not delegated to the United States, by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States or to the people.” [12th Amendment] To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress, is to take possession of a boundless field of power, no longer susceptible of any definition.
The incorporation of a bank, and the powers assumed by this bill, have not, in my opinion, been delegated to the United States, by the Constitution.
 
BANKING POWERS NOT ENUMERATED BY THE CONSTITUTION
 
They are not among the powers specially enumerated: for these are:
1.) A power to lay taxes for the purpose of paying the debts of the United States; but no debt is paid by this bill, nor any tax laid. Were it a bill to raise money, its origination in the Senate would condemn it by the Constitution.
2.) “To borrow money.” But this bill neither borrows money nor ensures the borrowing of it. The proprietors of the bank will be just as free as any other money holders, to lend or not to lend their money to the public. The operation proposed in the bill first, to lend them $2 million, and then to borrow it back again, cannot change the nature of the latter act, which will still be a payment, and not a loan, call it by what name you please.
3.) To “regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the States, and with the Indian tribes.” To erect a bank, and to regulate commerce, are very different acts. He who erects a bank creates a subject of commerce in its bills, so does he who makes a bushel of wheat, or digs a dollar out of the mines; yet neither of these persons regulates commerce thereby. To make a thing which may be bought and sold, is not to prescribe regulations for buying and selling. Besides, if this was an exercise of the power of regulating commerce, it would be void, as extending as much to the internal commerce of every State, as to its external. For the power given to Congress by the Constitution does not extend to the internal regulation of the commerce of a State (that is to say of the commerce between citizen and citizen), which remain exclusively with its own legislature; but to its external commerce only, that is to say, its commerce with another State, or with foreign nations, or with the Indian tribes. Accordingly the bill does not propose the measure as a regulation of trace, but as “productive of considerable advantages to trade.” Still less are these powers covered by any other of the special enumerations.
 
NOT COVERED IN ANY SPECIAL PHRASES
 
Nor are they within either of the general phrases, which are the two following:
1. To lay taxes to provide for the general welfare of the United States, that is to say, “to lay taxes for the purpose of providing for the general welfare.” For the laying of taxes is the power, and the general welfare the purpose, for which the power is to be exercised. They are not to lay taxes ad libitum for any purpose they please; but only to pay the debts or provide for the welfare of the union. In like manner, they are not to do anything they please to provide for the general welfare, but only to lay taxes for that purpose. To consider the latter phrase,

According to Zogby, most New Yorkers reject the official9/11 story. The blues carried New York by over one million votes and NYCby 81%. Do the math. Truth matters. Truth matters more when the country'sin crisis. Truth matters most when thousands are dying without a clue.This is the challenge facing our independent media.

Hit Exxon where it hurts and help save Muggle forests
while you're at it!


Dear activists:

Today Greenpeace needs your help with two things:

1. Tell Exxon's CEO to get out of the Stone Age and embrace clean
energy technology.

Yesterday, Greenpeace helped launch a new nationwide campaign to create a
force so strong that even the world's largest oil corporation can't ignore
our voices. It's time to hit this fossil fuel dinosaur where it hurts most:
its bottom line.

Send Exxon's CEO the only message he can understand: You will NOT buy Exxon
or Mobil gasoline, you will NOT invest in Exxon stocks and you will NEVER
take a job with Exxon. Visit:
http://usactions.greenpeace.org/action/start.php?action_id=59&ref_source=exxoncampaignlistserv&usa_source_template=thin_ice
to hit Exxon where it hurts most.

 AND


2. Save ancient Muggle forests - tell everyone you know to buy the new Harry
Potter book from Canada.

This is the week that Harry Potter fans have been waiting for, Harry Potter
and the Half-Blood Prince is being released. While the book's Canadian
publisher, Raincoast books, is printing on 100 percent recycled paper,
Scholastic, its American publisher, has refused to use any recycled content.
Scholastic is one of the
largest Harry Potter publishers globally. If it had printed the book on 100
percent recycled paper, its 10.8 million print run could have saved 217,475
trees.

Let Scholastic know that you hold them accountable for destroying our
ancient forests:

BUY HARRY POTTER FROM CANADA! (A good place to look is amazon.ca)

It only costs a couple of dollars extra and what's a couple of dollars
compared with saving ancient Muggle forests?

Thanks for your help,

Anne and Hallie
Greenpeace

Here is an excerpt from an article that gives the detais:

The 17th Amendment was never properly ratified. I have seen the proof with
my own eyes at the National Archives and from the documents obtained by
Bill Benson from all 48 state legislatures in his work, "Proof the 17th
Amendment Was Not Ratified." I also collected court certified documents on
this from the bowels of the California State Archives. They are
incontrovertible and prove without question that Secretary of State
William Jennings Bryan, on May 31, 1913, knowingly and willfully issued a
memo declaring the 17th Amendment ratified even though he knew the
required number of states did not ratify it.
