"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation then by deflation, the banks and the corporations will grow up around them, will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies."

Yeah, I'm automatically Godwinning myself and can be dismissed out of hand as such, yadda, yadda. I've heard it before.

Godwin's Law (which is actually an inside joke masquerading as a logical fallacy) does not apply where there are actual, legitimate comparisons to be made.

I'm not saying this to be inflammatory, but Obama is a fascist. Look up the definition if you don't believe me. In simple terms, it's socialism with a capitalist veneer. In other words, the government doesn't directly control industry, but they have such a degree of influence and power over industry that the effect is the same. Mussolini and Hitler would have been proud.
