I rise today in opposition to secrecy, in opposition to the veil of secrecy that cloaks the money changing hands in the temple of the Federal Reserve. While the money changes hands, the monied class gets richer and the middle class gets short-changed. It is more than time to part the curtain that hides the trillions of dollars that change hands. There is a revolving door from Wall Street to the Treasury to the Fed and back again. We have former Secretaries of the Treasury going from government to Wall Street and pocketing hundreds of millions of dollars.

I have called repeatedly for transparency at the Federal Reserve so Americans can see what is being done with their money supply. Every time I’ve called for transparency, people from both sides have said that transparency would only undermine the independence of the Federal Reserve. But Congress does have a role in overseeing the Fed. Congress created the Fed and right now independence has come to mean no oversight.

Some say, Oh but the Fed is audited each year. The Inspector General responsible for auditing the Fed came before Congress in May of 2009, and here’s what she had to say to a question during a House Financial Services subcommittee hearing. A Congressman asked, “What have you done to investigate the off-balance-sheet transactions conducted by the Federal Reserve which, according to Bloomberg, now total $9 trillion in the last 8 months?”

The IG fumbled, she repeated herself. She looked silly and then she said: “You know, I think it may be important at this point to,” Yadda, yadda, yadda” and then several yaddas later this bombshell:

"We do not have jurisdiction to directly go out and audit Reserve Bank activities specifically."

Rand Paul is out to lunch as are all the Libtardarians.

Freedom on social issues, fiscal responsibility. Seems reasonable to me. But then again, I don't expect government to care for me cradle to grave.
 
Coming from a lying leftist drone like you... that is a perfect.

Voters don't give a shit about the Federal Reserve and those that do have no idea what the hell they're talking about ie they're printing money which will lead to hyperinflation.

With Christie stating yesterday that he intends on staying in NJ for the rest of his life, he's signaling that he's not running in 2016. Perhaps it's the fear of Hillary holding an event with Bruce Springsteen singing something about Christie to make him cry.


Long live the Republican Clown Car.

I don't understand this type of blatant asinine thought. You, FC (not to mention the hag that is Convertibility), reportedly support the party that is supposed to champion transparency, defend against big corporations and banking cartels, protect the little guy and stop corruption. Yet, instead of saying something like "I'm not a Rand Paul fan, but this I like." you prove yourself to be a charlatan, putting partisanship before your principles. You are leftists before being liberals. Long live the party of cronyism, right?

What gives? How can you possibly call yourself a liberal and be against auditing the Federal Reserve and the big bank cartels? This is one of the few issue where Libertarians and Democrats should be able to stand together!

Half of what the Pauls say is great and who could be against liberty and freedom?.... It's the other half that is the problem.

Libertarianism in general is un-Christian, naive, and a step backward on the path of man's social progress. It also allows too much power for corporations and too little for the worker. It trades the tyranny by govt with tyranny by big business. At least the govt represents the people. (ideally). It's a cold, selfish, insular ideology and unworkable in today's interconnected border-less world.
 
smaller govt is fewer cronies more liberty.


socialism is the exact opposite of power to the people. Just look at the examples throughout history.

now the cronies are are pushing for cheap plentiful labor (immigration reform) when the country is already dealing the largest labor non participation rate I can recall.

And who supports the big companies....

the democrats and the establishment Rs.

you brain is fricken scrambled fc.
