The Federal Reserve

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 ?

Oh no, don't start this up again... CSS doesn't care about facts... He's just trying to convince people that the Fed is evil and trying to take over the world. This is a guy that takes "Loose Change" and "Zeitgeist" as indisputable facts just because they're on YouTube. I tried to educate him, remember?

And they still had recessions even then.
The problem is that since 1864, we've had a debt-based banking system. All our money is based on government debt. We can not extinguish government debt without extinguishing our money supply. That's why talk of paying of the national debt, without reforming our banking system, is an impossibility. That's why the solution does not lay in discussing the size of national debt. Rather it lays in reforming out banking system. We have in this country one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board. This evil institution has impoverished the people of the US and has practically bankrupted our Government. It has done this through the corrupt practices of the moneyed vultures who control it. The Federal Reserve really, even though it is not part of the federal government, it is more powerful than the federal government. It's more powerful than the president, the congress and the courts. And a lot of people challenge me on that, but, let me prove my case. The Federal Reserve determines what the average persons car payment is going to be, what their house payment is going to be, and whether they have a job or not. And I submit to you that that's total control. And the Federal Reserve is the largest single creditor of the US government. What does proverbs tell us? That the borrower is servant to the lender.

That's arguable as being a version of the truth, I guess.

I doubt you've ever read proverbs, where did you copy and paste this from ? The fact is, the Federal Reserve was created because it was better than what was before, as you say. So, the issue is mostly the US obsession with small government. Which is ironic.

I never said that, and that is simply your ignorant opinion. Do you really want to get into this again? I have enough information to completely overpower you.

Is this like when you threatened to overpower me with info on GM and ran like a little girl ? Let me finish my book. I just wanted to comment that I happen to be reading one. If I will bother trying to get you to engage long enough to have an actual discussion, remains to be seen. You also ignored my main comment - the banking system in the US is the result of the obsession with 'small government', thus allowing big business to take control of the country. Aren't you one of the people who complains about big government ?

That is total bullshit. The constitution says congress has the authority to coin money, which means congress is supposed to create and control the currency of the US. The Fed was mainly to blame for the Great Depression. This is well documented and known. The Federal Reserve claims to manage our money; instead it makes our money worth less and less every day. It has generated continuous and worsening business cycles and lowered our living standards. Money is supposed to serve as a reliable standard of economic value, not a source of instability. Until we restore sound money and take away the private corporation's (Fed) ability to debase it, we have little hope of restoring the freedom and prosperity that made America great. That is why the power that they have belongs in the hands of congress. Again, your not getting the big picture. The right to "coin" money belongs in the hands of the congress answerable to the people and regulated and restricted by law. Not this debt-based currency where a private corporation with its own interests has total power over the economy. The claim that the Fed is accountable to the government is false. The reports to Congress mean little unless what the Chairman reports can be verified by complete records. From its inception, the Fed has never undergone a complete independent audit. Congress time after time has requested that the Fed voluntarily submit to a complete audit, and every time, it refuses. As you can clearly see with these two congressional interviews with the Ben Benarke, the Fed is clearly being secretive about how it is handling all of American's wealth. CSPAN 1[^] CSPAN 2[^] Monetary policy should be the responsibility of publicly accountable officials, not delegated to an independent, self-perpetuating board that is not accountable to anyone. All history shows that no society has been able to endure usury, as we can clearly see today. Banking establis

What a pile of ignorant crap. The main issues were a massive bubble, a young system that was not geared to deal with it, and the dust bowl at the same time, which killed the growth of food at a time when there was also no money.

This is also ignorant BS.

I'm sorry yours is lowering. Mine gets better every year.

So, big government ?

The spelling errors are the only reason I think you may have written some of this yourself.

Wow, this was there when my post came up. I've never posted exactly the same moment as someone else before. Yeah, to blame the Fed for the depression is a pretty amazing assertion.

youtube videos are still not research. This is what you do. 'I am so smart, I've done the research'. BS. Explain how the Fed created the depression. Explain how it's lowered living standards. All you do, is say what you believe, and expect us to buy it. You're not even remotely that credible.

Booms and busts are created by the fed, to extract real wealth from the economy. Its kind of like a big wave washing inland and as it goes back into the ocean it pulls out a lot of material with it.

How on earth does controlling a currency create a bubble ? Do you even know what a bubble is ?

Are you truly that ignorant or are you just trolling? The fed can create new money out of thin air with the push of a button, then loan that out to other banks and corporations with interest attached.
