 mises.org: The American Tradition of Abolishing Central Banks -- https://tinyurl.com/2akofrdn -- The United States abolished its first three central banks, and this was followed by a period of immense economic growth. End the Fed? We did it before and can do it again. #liberty #news

 "Abolish" (v.):  To do away with wholly; to annul; to make void; -- said of laws, customs, institutions, governments, etc..

In the 21st century, this word is only ever used ironically.  "Wholly" has come to mean "transitorily, to create a new but essentially similar thing"

Central banking...still exists but differently
Slavery...still exists but differently
😔
