The banks didn't need to be reformed. Some bankers wanted to gain control over the money creation process. Kind of like a strangler: he doesn't want your air, he only wants to control your breathing.

Please remember that everything you ever hear on news or in schools is from the big banker's point of view. You can get a lot of historical insight from this fellow: http://gold-eagle.com/research/katzn...
