“It has often been found that profuse expenditures, heavy taxation, absurd commercial restrictions, corrupt tribunals, disastrous wars, seditions, persecutions, conflagrations, inundation, have not been able to destroy capital so fast as the exertions of private citizens have been able to create it.” Thomas Babington Macaulay, (1800-1859) [Lord Macaulay] 1st Baron Macaulay, British historian.
