Yes. The Fed is a disaster.

Bawney and “Wolfman” Chris Dodd love the chaos ... and the side payments from the banks.

I’m in favor of a few keel-haulings followed by a draw and quarter.

The old ‘money trust’ morphed itself into the Fed by creating so much dislike for the money trust that the country begged for a solution. The money trust offered up the Fed Reserve in disguise in 1913, and started over with the new entity.

Maybe now the Fed is deliberately angling to be ‘fired’ again. The ‘new’ solution this time may be the financial director of the NAUnion, adding Canada and Mexico to their control...after all, the NAU is on fast track again as reported by Lou Dobbs.

Wow, I just noticed something that I consider to be a positive sign: we’ve gone to a total of FIVE posts & there has yet to be one single “trash Pat” comment as of yet.

Uh-oh...here come the NeoCon Pat Trashers right now, I can hear them cursing in the distance.

The Bush Republicans and Barney Frank Democrats who bullied banks into making mortgages to minorities who could not afford the houses they were moving into.

What 'Bush Republicans' is Buchanan talking about here? Or is he just lying to push his own agenda?

I’m not sure what a “Pat Trasher” is, but I do know that you are a n00b without a reason to whine about a thread.

Welcome to FR!

Can you name me one or two of these ‘Bush Republicans’ Buchanan is trashing? Or are we supposed to have faith in Pat without knowledge?

It’s not a matter of faith, it’s a matter of understanding monetary history.

Trashing ‘Bush Republicans’ without specifics or names seriously weakens Buchanan’s arguments and damages his credibility. I’m calling BS on Buchanan’s fingerpointing here until I hear better than that.

Hmmm. It seems that Ron Paul isn’t so much of a crackpot after all.

WWII did not end the Depression. It happened DURING the Depression. As PJB accurately says, the Depression ended when the war ended.

Krugman’s idiocy is easily demonstrated: How can anyone but a lunatic say that there is “prosperity” when no one is building cars, radios, washing machines, houses, etc.?

I am baffled by this massive loss of wealth and the response of American citizens. My Brothers each lost half of their net worth in the past 18 months and they behave as if nothing has happened and there is zero outrage. They were stolen from by their own investment funds, banks and their government and they utter not a peep.

Strange times.

Since when has PJB become an advocate of free trade? His analysis is sound, though hardly original; many others have said and written the same thing for years.
