The Fed probably should be audited and I don’t think their hands are 100% clean, but basically I have to say you’re correct.

Getting rid of the Fed won’t be some magical solution, nor would ridiculous ideas like banning fractional reserve banking.

Too many people are willing to throw the baby out with the bathwater in these situations.

Wikileaks can get our military/intelligence secrets, but nothing that really makes Obama look bad.

Liberal Socialists stick together. :(

Thanks for the vote of support.

I think a lot of people don't realize the FED is actually already highly audited. It's just their policy decisons that aren't really audited. And most of those we know about as soon as they implement them.

The ones we don't know about, are typically loan arrangements with other central banks for currency exchange rate stabilization, or emergency lending like we've seen the last couple of years, and those would have an adverse effect to make public at the time they are done.

How the FED is audited
What would a Fed Audit show

Our country is broke - and the fed’s acting like a pimp at a nightclub filled with 18 year old girls. I’m sickened.

Factual reinforcement for the school of thought that the Obama administration has set out, deliberately, to destroy the economy of our country and bring us to our knees so they can impose their socialist replacement.

More like factual reinforcement for the school of thought that the Obama administration is made up of hooligans with really bad judgment.
