PAUL: Time to end Federal Reserve secrecy

Washington Times

Among the facts that the Federal Reserve would rather you didn’t know is that at the height of the financial turmoil in 2008, when average Americans were just beginning to suffer, the institution was passing out sweetheart deals to protect the powerful and well-connected. Among the beneficiaries were foreign banks, Wall Street giants and even the company that then owned MSNBC.

About time! Nice to see a politician who sees behind the veil of this overbearing conglomerate that pushes for wealth with the elites. If this does not pass, then we know who is on the fed's payroll!

Theives are getting to steal from us with the blessings of the legal system. Their using unlawful means to obtain legal permission to make money by printing it and loaning it to the US. How could we have allowed this stupidity if not for the control of our gov by those same theives? I agree with Paul on this and several other things. I would vote for him if he is on the ballot in November.

Oh wait though....you say its about time..but less we forget our brothers who spoke up and got ...killed!

Now we "see" and let us claim that we "knew it all along". Damn shame!

Ron Paul is against the Federal Reserve?

Since when?

Always has been. He believes we should go back to the gold standard.
He thinks the fed has too many powers and are serving the wealthy. Imagine that!

just end the fed and that will be that.

manipulation of money printing it setting the rates for every loan in this country is a power that should have never been allowed if this country truly had a free market the federal reserve would have never been created.

whats worse the same people who created the fed created another agency that picks up where the fed leaves off.

the government controls the entire financial system in america and that other agency is called the consumer protection agency.

ron paul FTW

Are you guys rich?

Just a lil question to Ron

If he manage to audit the fed and realised theres no more gold?
Since Ron Paul is an american, is he shooting himself in the foot.
The next day all the newspapers in the world could report that USA is baloney.
Can you even consider how bad it could end up for the allready fragile economy.
Did you ever thought that maybe the reason why so much military power is a failsafe in case someone want to cross the pond to have a look at Fort Knox.

Plz help me understand how thing could be better off without gold?
Because we all pretty much expect less?

What are you talking about?

Ron Paul isn't looking for ``gold``, Ron Paul already knows they have no gold.

Get rid of the Federal Reserve, then there's no reason to keep the IRS around. Go, go Dr. Paul.
