"My Administration is the only thing between you and the Pitchforks" This is the most disturbing comment made by a President in U.S. History. It shows the gross disregard Obama has for institutions that have built America's Industrial Strength. It is a cavalier attempt at broadening his powers over the banking community. It reveals a machiavelian tendency of Obama to characterize his self importance in threatening terms.

Our nation's independence movement was inspired by the Patrick Henry assertion that "taxation without representation constituted tyranny". We had no vote or say in King George's England on tax policy, trade policy, or tariffs.
Today, we face a different threat - one in our nations capital and leadership. Many believe that recent economic events have forced US citizens into accepting government oversight and control which we never agreed to.
Which begs the question: What Would Our Founding Fathers Do?
