He was the first and only president to pay off the national debt completely.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">One biographer says the former president viewed debt as a &quot;moral failing,&quot; a sort of &quot;black magic.&quot;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">When he became president, Jackson was determined to rid the US of its national debt. <strong>After all, debt enslaves you to your creditors.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">Jackson knew that <strong>being debt-free was essential to independence.<\/strong> This outlook resonated with many Americans back then.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">With that in mind, Jackson attacked the institutions and powerful people who promoted and enabled the federal debt. This included the banking elites and the Second Bank of the United States, the country&#39;s central bank at the time and precursor to today&#39;s insidious Federal Reserve system.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\"><strong>While campaigning against the evils of national debt and central banking, Jackson miraculously survived an assassination attempt when an assassin&rsquo;s two pistols both misfired<\/strong>. Shadowy interests tied to the central bank were almost certainly behind the effort.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">However, Jackson survived and went on to &quot;End the Fed&quot; of his days. He successfully bested the central bank&mdash;and the powerful interests behind it&mdash;and shut down the Second Bank of the United States.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">He also repaid the federal debt in full, which was no easy task.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">Jackson couldn&#39;t squeeze the American people with a federal income tax to repay the debt. It didn&rsquo;t exist at the time and would have been unconstitutional.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">He also couldn&rsquo;t simply print currency to pay off the debt. Perpetuating such an insane fraud&mdash;which the Fed does on a massive scale today&mdash;likely never entered his mind.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">Instead, Jackson had to rely on tax revenue from other sources, mainly import tariffs and excise taxes, to pay down the debt. He also drastically cut federal spending and frequently vetoed spending bills.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><strong><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">Jackson&#39;s determination worked. By January 1835, the US was debt-free for the first time.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">Unfortunately, it didn&#39;t last much more than a year. After that, the US would never again be debt-free&mdash;not even close.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align:justify\"><strong><span style=\"font-size:22px\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">Revenge of the Central Bankers<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">After Jackson succeeded in ending the Second Bank of the United States, anything associated with a central bank became deeply unpopular with the American public. So, central bank advocates tried a new branding strategy.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">Rather than call their new central bank the &quot;Third Bank of the United States,&quot; they went for a vague and boring name. They called it &quot;the Federal Reserve&quot; and managed to hide it from the average person in plain sight. As a result, over 100 years since its founding, most Americans have no idea what the Federal Reserve is or what it actually does.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">Ironically, Jackson&#39;s face has been on the $20 &quot;Federal Reserve Note&quot; since 1928. So in a sense, this symbolic move is central banking advocates giving the middle finger to one of their most steadfast opponents.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">After all, the Fed is really the &quot;Third Bank of the United States.&quot; No doubt, Jackson would have been disturbed at having his face on its fake confetti money.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><strong><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">In any case, most Americans today have no idea who Jackson is, what he did, or why he did it.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">To the extent he is ever mentioned, <strong>the media, academia, and the rest of the establishment unjustly besmirch him as&mdash;you guessed it&mdash;a &quot;racist.&quot;<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">That&#39;s exactly what <strong>the Deep State<\/strong>&mdash;the permanently entrenched bureaucracy&mdash;wants. It <strong>doesn&#39;t want the average citizen to understand why Jackson shut down the central bank and (temporarily) freed Americans from national debt bondage.<\/strong> Doing the same thing today would be a mortal threat to their power.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"color:#000000\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\">This is one of the reasons the establishment will try in the coming years to replace Jackson on the $20 bill with the more politically-correct Harriet Tubman&hellip; pushing Jackson further down the memory hole.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align:center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.markethive.com\/azcats72\"><img src=\"https:\/\/markethive.com\/images\/banners\/4501.gif\" style=\"height:70px; width:700px\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:20px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\"><strong>New Opportunities Are Emerging For Citizens of The World.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:18px\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif\"><strong>Freedom and democracy<\/strong> may appear to be struggling to stay alive in America, but there may be a knock-out punch ready to be released.
