Q:if they think it might fail?

No. But our financial system has had corrupt bankers determining the winners and losers in the economy for about a century now. Before this power was limited, because they could only do this with special favors like subsidies and bailouts. Now they have the power to just shut down business at their whim, instead of indirectly via monopolization.

Q:If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] 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. Did you know Thomas Jefferson said this? Did you know the Federal Reserve is a private bank?

Yeah, OK. Jefferson was talking about a national bank, which we have not had since the Jackson administration. So, yeah, Jefferson said it 220 years ago. So what? Give him a talk radio show. The federal reserve is a private bank? OK. Who owns it? Private property in the U.S. has an owner. Who is it?

Q:a. the economy finally flourished and expanded. b. was repaired and the state banking system created a new level of prosperity. c. quickly collapsed into depression. d. went through all of the above.

D. went through all of the above When Martin Van Buren took over the Presidency from his successor, Andrew Jackson, the nation's financial situation seemed to be going fairly well. Jackson had successfully lowered the national debt to its lowest point since 1791 (a trifle $33,733.05), and the economy seemed to be growing rapidly. Probably the most blame for the panic is placed most often on President Andrew Jackson and his attitude toward the Bank of the United States. Jackson is famous for having opposed the bank, which he not only refused to recharter, but from which he withdrew funds (an act which earned him a congressional censure) in order to promote private banking and a more free economy. Jackson viewed soft money (that is, paper currency which holds no value on its own, but represents some sort of accepted value) in a highly negative light, much preferring banks doing business in hard money (gold or silver currency). As a result of the new power wielded by state banks, and the lack of regulation from a national banking system, the economy did flourish for a time - bank loans skyrocketed, the economy flourished, and foreign nations began investing heavily in the financial opportunities of America. The boom was short lived, however, as inflation increased dramatically as banks printed exorbitant amounts of paper money. This was exacerbated considerably by one of the most controversial aspects of Jackson's economic policy - the issuance of a Specie Circular (or Coinage Act) which was an attempt to protect land speculators in the west from being left with devalued currency in the event of inflation. As a result of this policy, however, the value of paper money began to deflate rapidly, providing the opposite of the intended effect, leaving many holding nearly worthless money.

Q:I bought a brand new looking Dodge Power Wagon 318 for $1500, what a steal. I am wanting to make it a project truck to show up all the mexicans with their fancy little cars that show off a lot. Any ideas on how to upgrade this truck. No lie, this truck looks brand new. Everything is great condition, and the engine has 52,000 miles on it. The man that sold it to me, is a great family friend but thats a different story. But any ideas? Please I wanna make this a beast, even though it already is. I wanna make it stronger. Has 2 gas tanks, new shocks, I need new tires though. running i think 16.5s on there right now. Rare tires and wheels I know. :(

I am talking about their Corporate Headquarters, etc. Please dont offer the 800# that is beyond uselessI need a big wigs inside number, email, anything/?? I appreciate your help.

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE ON ABOUT

Q:I keep trying but it makes no sense!

To power mine you mine the ore and then drop them all. That way you don't have to waste time going to a bank. So: Mine Ore. Drop Ore. Done. ;P Be sure to mine and drop whole packs.

Q:I'm 18 years old now, and I need to learn about the fundamentals of banking. Is there a site that can easily explain all aspects of banking there I need to know?My family seems to enjoy having power over my money and bank savings, and I want to know how I can shift these things.

I would really just either go into a local bank and start asking questions, or if you can't go in person, call. There are always representatives available to help you learn about checkings, savings, and loans. Go into several banks and ask lots of questions. Don't be afraid of sounding stupid. You're only 18, you're not supposed to know.

Q:besides an accout how can i get him a new i.d. and he can't leave the hospital.

Maybe a manager at the bank could help you or perhaps speak to his doctor.

Q:I am working on a device to be powered at a remote village in Africa where power is scarce and the power grid shuts on and off all the time everyday. The device works fine but now I need to consider how to power it. My device doesn't consume a lot of power. It is a microcontroller that operates at 5V and maybe draw around 1A of current. We are going to install a solar array with a battery bank for backup power for the village. If I want to go simple, I can just plug in an ac adapter to the wall, but I don't want to consume any of the precious solar power if a 220V-5V ac/dc power adapter is not efficient. The adapter gets very hot and I believe it is consuming a lot of unnecessary power. Or I can use my 20W/16.5V/1.2A penal with a battery, which should be more than enough to power my device day and night. I have done a lot of googling but I still can't find a proper way to charge a battery with a 20W panel.Any input regarding the best way to supply power to the device will be greatly appreciated!

I suggest you contact manufacturers of these products, explaining your problem. Many of them have postings at the link.

Q:I have this wild idea of powering a window unit from a battery bank. not 100% about how i would charge the batteries but just a crazy idea. Any suggestions on how i might be able to do it?

One issue you are facing is that anything with a motor is going to have induction power needs, which need a lot of extra amps to get them going, so you will need extra energy and amps to kick the unit on. For that, I wouldn't let the unit cycle because the kick-on's would really eat battery faster. Second issue is that converting electricity to chemical battery energy is a loss of energy, not to mention the conversion from DC to AC. The conversion rate is around 85%, so you lose about 15% unless you spend top dollar on the equipment to get you closer to 95%. All batteries also suffer from some sort of degradation effect so you have to keep them constantly charged to keep them ready, which if for frequent power outages would be a good idea, if for fun kind of expensive.
