The Federal Reserve is a necessary evil.
It's a great way keep our interest rates low but at a cost.
I still approve of an audit.

I really think all that space under DIA serves as a protective bunker for the elites, politicians, call them whatever, during times of suspected world anihilation. That's it. It's probably just one of many "Continuation of Government" sites. I could be wrong but remember when that comet passed in September (?), all of Washington was in Denver for suppossed FEMA training drills or something.Right ....they were all hiding under DIA just in case something got too close. Just my thoughts

Fort Collins
Billions are tucked away at this bank, stored in row upon row of white bags inside the 12-inch-thick, tornado-proof walls of the triple-locked vault.
Billions of seeds.
Maize, tomatoes, chickpeas, hops, beets, cotton, lettuce, squash, rice. If it grows anywhere in the world, its seeds are likely here, safeguarded like gold in a federal stronghold often referred to as the Fort Knox of seeds.

Luis Jimenez, pictured here with a mockup of the "Mustang" sculpture he was working on, died when parts of the sculpture fell on him.
"Mr. Jimenez's untimely death is a tragic loss for the nation's art community," said Erin Trapp, director of the Denver office of cultural affairs. "He will be remembered for his artistic vision, compassion and generosity through a rich legacy of work."
The airport and the cultural affairs office will work with the local community to determine how the piece can be finished, the office said in a news release.
Earlier this year, the airport threatened to sue Jimenez again because he had not finished his piece on time. He had been working on the sculpture for more than 10 years and had been given several deadlines. His last deadline was May 31 but it passed with no sign of the horse. He was to be paid $300,000 for the piece.
The city sued Jimenez to get back an upfront payment of $165,000 and finished parts of the sculpture. Jimenez filed a counter suit after the airport considered putting the sculpture inside the terminal instead of on a street median outside as originally agreed. Both lawsuits were dismissed.

Jimenez's widow, Susan Jimenez, said the original proposal was for a sculpture of a buffalo stampede. That was rejected because buffalo were hunted to near extinction in the West.
Jimenez then proposed the mustang — wild horses that symbolize the West and provided long distance travel, like airplanes today.

This writer, while art critic for The Denver Post, visited Jimenez at his studio - an old adobe schoolhouse - in 1994 as he was beginning work on Mustang. “I like to work with images that are hackneyed and stereotyped that I believe to be icons of the West - and, for that matter, of the United States,” Jimenez said then. “The mustang already has entered the realm of myth.”
