Banking Reform - a Democratic Position for Years

"I have never yet had anyone who could, through the use of logic and reason justify the Federal Government borrowing the use of its own money...

"I believe that the time will come when people will demand that this be changed.

"I believe that the time will come when they will actually blame you, me and everyone else connected with the Congress for sitting idly by and permitting such an idiotic system to continue"

Wright Patman
Democratic Congressman 1928-1976
Chairman Committee on Banking and Currency, 1963-1975

Please explain to this Brit why Republicans exist?
