Andrew Jackson was a cruel, sadistic, slaver

I am personally in favor of stamping Jackon's face on some worthless piece of paper currency, as a final punishment for his disastrous opposition to the Bank of the United States.

His reasoning for his objections to the Second Bank of the United States could have merit for Jeffersonians, libertarians and today's progressives:

* Not having an insulated bank czar in Biddle
* Not wanting to have the rich get richer
* Preventing the Northeast be favored over the rest of the US
