Career
Norman Dodd had an his unusual career, which started in banking, until after investigating the circumstances surrounding the great financial crash of 1929, he reported to his bank's directors that banking would never be stable until the money system was radically reformed.

He then proceeded to show that this applied to the Ford Foundation, Rockefeller Foundation, and Carnegie Endowment.[2]
He stated in his findings[3] that many foundations were intentionally campaigning to involve the United States in such wars as World War I and that they also sought ways to warp American teaching of history through explicit control of the education system in the United States.
