Is Thomas Jefferson's prediction coming ever so more clear?

“I sincerely believe that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies, and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity, under the name of funding, is but swindling futurity on a large scale.”
Testicles, there are different variations that are missattributed, but this variation is in a letter from him to John Taylor in 1816

Ever since the liberal congress of 1913, and Woodrow Wilson, we've been beholden to banking interests in this country. Ever since we went off the Gold Standard, it's just gotten even worse. How can a country back its currency by printing MORE of it? That's insane.

As John McCain called it, generational theft.
Insurance is different. Insurance is legalized gambling. You place a bet that something bad will happen to you. The insurance provider bets that you will be ok. They only lose if you suffer horribly. You win if very bad things happen to you. Insurance that is mandated by law is like being forced to wager a large sum of your pay check on a game of russian roulette. Only in this game you only win if the gun goes off. But forcing insurer to cover pre-existing conditions is like forcing them to sell flood insurance after the levees have broken. No one makes bet when they know they have already lost.

Your grammar needs some help, but you are correct in what I think you are saying. The banks own the government, the government does favors for the banks and round and round it goes. They both get rich; we all get screwed.
