  Ambrose Bierce

 There is something to be said for government by a great aristocracy which has furnished leaders to the nation in peace and war for generations; even a democrat like myself must admit this. But there is absolutely nothing to be said for government by a plutocracy, for government by men very powerful in certain lines and gifted with the ''money touch',' but with ideals which in their essence are merely those of so many glorified pawnbrokers.
  Theodore Roosevelt

 They actually wear black shirts with red hats.

  John McCain

 I completely deny it, ... This is another of the slanders and lies of the government which has spied on the bank accounts and businesses of private individuals.

 Remember to wear your Hawaiian shirts, straw hats, coconut bikinis and other tropical gear, because there will be lots of sun to catch.

 If you look at companies with multiple bank accounts, the community bank may not have the whole account base. The bank can win that base by offering remote deposit capture. Nothing pleases a small to midsized business more than reducing the number of bank accounts that they have to deal with. It simplifies things. There's one bank bill and one balance sheet to keep track of.

 Government has laid its hand on health, housing, farming, industry, commerce, education, and to an ever-increasing degree interferes with the people's right to know. Government tends to grow, government programs take on weight and momentum as public servants say, always with the best of intentions. But the truth is that outside of its legitimate function, government does nothing as well or economically as the private sector of the economy.
  Ronald Reagan
