Since the creation of the Federal Reserve, middle and working-class Americans have been victimized by a boom-and-bust monetary policy. In addition, most Americans have suffered a steadily eroding purchasing power because of the Federal Reserve's inflationary policies. This represents a real, if hidden, tax imposed on the American people. From the Great Depression, to the stagflation of the seventies, to the current economic crisis caused by the housing bubble, every economic downturn suffered by this country over the past century can be traced to Federal Reserve policy. The Fed has followed a consistent policy of flooding the economy with easy money, leading to a misallocation of resources and an artificial "boom" followed by a recession or depression when the Fed-created bubble bursts. With a stable currency, American exporters will no longer be held hostage to an erratic monetary policy. Stabilizing the currency will also give Americans new incentives to save as they will no longer have to fear inflation eroding their savings. Those members concerned about increasing America's exports or the low rate of savings should be enthusiastic supporters of this legislation. Though the Federal Reserve policy harms the average American, it benefits those in a position to take advantage of the cycles in monetary policy. The main beneficiaries are those who receive access to artificially inflated money and/or credit before the inflationary effects of the policy impact the entire economy. Federal Reserve policies also benefit big spending politicians who use the inflated currency created by the Fed to hide the true costs of the welfare-warfare state. It is time for Congress to put the interests of the American people ahead of special interests and their own appetite for big government. Abolishing the Federal Reserve will allow Congress to reassert its constitutional authority over monetary policy. The United States Constitution grants to Congress the authority to coin money and regulate the value of the currency. The Constitution does not give Congress the authority to delegate control over monetary policy to a central bank. Furthermore, the Constitution certainly does not empower the federal government to erode the American standard of living via an inflationary monetary policy. In fact, Congress' constitutional mandate regarding monetary policy should only permit currency backed by stable commodities such as silver and gold to be used as legal tender. Therefore, abolishing the Federal Reserve and returning t

Federal Reserve's inflationary policies
The Fed just like other central banks reacts to situations not cause situations. Example : People want to earn more from their employment, this puts strain on the employer who must raise their prices through to the retailer who increases his prices accordingly. The employees wages are eaten up with increased prices. So more money has to be created to service these requirements. We go around this circle time and time again. This can be a vicious circle. So the Feds need to set limits that impact that circle by moderation.

Economic downturns are caused by people's greed who then cannot service the debt they were only too willing to enter into. And when I say people, include companies as well, their policies do not always take into account the proper concept of RISK. The policies of the Fed are to reduce/restrict the effect of any downturn as well as to take to heat off an over-boiling economy.

Since the creation of the Federal Reserve, middle and working-class Americans have been victimized by a boom-and-bust monetary policy. Wrong. There have been booms and busts in all economies, and in the USA prior to the Fed. In addition, most Americans have suffered a steadily eroding purchasing power because of the Federal Reserve's inflationary policies. This represents a real, if hidden, tax imposed on the American people. This is also crap. How does the Fed force inflation onto us ? Inflation is what most people rely on for their retirement, or to move to a bigger home. From the Great Depression, to the stagflation of the seventies, to the current economic crisis caused by the housing bubble, every economic downturn suffered by this country over the past century can be traced to Federal Reserve policy. The Fed has followed a consistent policy of flooding the economy with easy money, leading to a misallocation of resources and an artificial "boom" followed by a recession or depression when the Fed-created bubble bursts. All banks do this. The core issue really, is that people borrow money they cannot pay back. With a stable currency, American exporters will no longer be held hostage to an erratic monetary policy. Stabilizing the currency will also give Americans new incentives to save as they will no longer have to fear inflation eroding their savings. Those members concerned about increasing America's exports or the low rate of savings should be enthusiastic supporters of this legislation. What you're asking for is government intervention, and control of the currencies worth. This would make you more of an international pariah, if nothing else. It sure would kill your ability to live high on the hog on cheap imports. I know you copied and pasted this, and I know you'll not really discuss it with me, so I'll stop there.

My god, you are extremely ignorant. I'm not going to waste my time with a bunch of idiot un-American pieces of crap who literally have no comprehension of morality or principles. I think a long time of extreme suffering is what you need, perhaps then you would change your views that have contributed to more harm and suffering then the black plague.

you did what? history actually has the revolution as a side show (yes it turned out differently) the brits were fighting the french the troops sent to surpress the rebelion were those that could be spared - ie 3rd line - the dregs, those that had performed badly and performed acts unbecoming - so dont get on your high horse. oh yes the famous us policy on europe, bleed us dry and then swan in as saviours in a war partly of your own creation, i perfer the civil war least you knew that even blue on blue was not completely wrong

Well, that didn't take long. I responded to your copy and paste crap with facts, and you respond with insults. It must occur to you somewhere inside that tiny mind of yours, that the reason you have to result to these defensive tactics is that your beliefs are so shaky, and so poorly understood by you, that you're incapable of discussing them, or even understanding them. I thought if we talked about the Fed, you were going to 'own' me ? I guess not. How pathetic it must be, to be you. Tell me again why you've not shot yourself ?

This is the crux of it. Conspiracy theories allow him to blame other people for the mess he's made of his life. As you can see, despite telling me over and over he'd 'own' me on any discussion of the Fed, the moment I discuss, he insults and runs away. How pathetic.

I am reading up on it now. I wonder if CSS realises that the money supply was entirely in the hands of private individuals in the US before the Fed was created ?

Having people join in, and having EVERYONE on the thread know more about it than he did, after months of his boasting, well, let's just say I'm good for Christmas presents

Well, back in those days, what did people need money for? Small potatoes. There's no Fed. How does Congress fund, say, WWII? And why this great belief that Congress is somehow more accountable? TARP, for example. The American people really had a say in that program.

It is kinda funny how he reacts to these things. All he knows is what he listens to on YouTube, and he doesn't understand any of it. Hell, most of my knowledge on the Fed comes from Wikipedia, and I'm practically an expert compared to him.
