national banks

I think it was Bijo who once posted these videos in the Backroom, couldn't find the thread, but the videos.

Part 1

Part 2

They contain a lot of info about the founding of the banks, who they funded and why and how, etc.
It's a bit long but should contain most of the info you're asking for.

I only watched the first hour of part 1, but I gotta say he has surprisingly poffy hair for a guy who wears a tinfoil hat.
