Lightbulb Audit The Fed Veto Proof....

Well, I'll be darned. Go Ron Paul! It was interesting to see who voted for it (link at the site)... Perhaps some of our Reps realize we are getting ticked and so are they? Almost too much to hope for...

I'm not sure if I should actually hold my breath or not??? Either way, KewlBeans!

Default Re: Audit The Fed Veto Proof....

As much as I loathe wiki:

Federal Reserve System - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The biggest thing about them is they are not accountable to the American people. That could possibly change w/this bill??? I'll believe it when I see it. All the signers need to stay out of small planes! hehehehehehehehehehe...... or possibly they'll all be declared potential violent homegrown terrorists?

This can only be a good thing right? IF..as you said, it actually happens.

and then if it DOES happen, you/we the people get to see the results.

If it does indeed happen, accountability will happen??? Sounds good in theory. At the very least, we are provided a list of Reps that may indeed still have our nations best interests at heart. Good to know come election time...

Default Re: Audit The Fed Veto Proof....

A couple weeks ago I fired off an email to my rep, Ciro Rodriguez, asking why he's not on that list. He's still not on it.

I welcome the audit. I wonder how many heads will roll.

I've read where the FR would crash the whole system rather than be held accountable. What does that say?

That's a darn good question.... I will be truly surprised if this actually gains any ground.... hehehehehehehe..... I notice my local Fox news is mum about this. It's all about Healthcare... Not surprised there...

I didn't think much about the FR until I read Ron Paul's book "Revolution - A Manifesto". Then I began to understand a bit more about this organziation I never gave a second thought about.

But pay no attention to what's really happening. All is fine sheep. Go back to sleep. If you're not tired, make sure you argue amonst yourselves about which side is more corrupt or Patriotic...

Default Re: Audit The Fed Veto Proof....

Imagine my complete lack of shock:

Federal Reserve rejects request for public review

"The institution which creates and oversees America's currency wants to keep a "low profile," according to a published report on Monday, and may willing to dodge the U.S. Treasury in order to do so."


The Raw Story » Federal Reserve rejects request for public review


Cuz being held accountable is UnPatriotic. Oh wait, the 'Terrorists' will get us if we hold them accountable. That's it!

i've heard in the past how the fed has a responsibility to the american people, but it's backwards nowadays, it seems like the people have a responsibility to the fed (go spend your money to make the economy better "how? I'm broke asshole!")

They've never once been audited. There is no accountability whatsoever..... What does that remind you of?

Ron Paul was on the local radio this morning. Sometimes I think he does go a bit too far even though I support most of what he is about. He said the fed is unconstitutional as was the cause for many things including the wars
