re: #204 Sharmuta
I’m not a great fan of auditing the Fed. And I doubt it will happen - Barney Frank is making noises but I’m sure it will be something of a charade.

But whatever. My point is just that most people don’t have much familiarity with the institutions and the numbers. If Ron Paul makes people ask themselves something as basic as “what is the Fed, anyway?” and leads people to investigate threats to the soundness of the dollar, then it’s not all bad.

I’m figuring that wider appreciation for the fiscal situation will result in less eagerness for more spending.
