"Senators disturb us by reminding us of the possibility of large numbers swarming from China; but the answer to all this is obvious and very simple. If the Chinese come here, they will come for citizenship or merely for labor. If they come for citizenship, then in this desire do they give a pledge of loyalty to our institutions; and where is the peril in such vows? They are peaceful and industrious; how can their citizenship be the occasion of solicitude?"
Senator Charles Sumner, 1870
"But, once again, I'll get on my soapbox and shout from the top of my lungs that buying U.S. Treasuries is a Ponzi scheme that will all come crashing down on you when the Fed removes their stimulus. Sure it won't be now, or in the next 6 months, but this Treasury Bubble will pop one day, and when it does, the mass exodus to the exit door will be so jammed, that everyone will get hurt."
Chuck Butler, Everbank
