Wow, quite the broad sweeping generalizations and unfounded assumptions there. I suppose allowing an exclusive, secretive, central planning bank with virtually unlimited authority to have their way- and not dare ask what they’re doing or who they’re doing it with. Pretty terrible position to take.

Besides, giving them the ultimate authority to manipulate interest rates for years, in spite of market conditions, to create the gigantic housing boom really went well for us, now didn’t it?

ROFLcopter… not even going into this too deep anymore srsly. Ron Paul, Peter Schiff, and that whole crowd of Gold Standard kooks have made their objective crystal clear. It has been discussed here ad nauseam. They want to dismantle the Federal Reserve system and put us on the Gold Standard and everything they do is meant as a step in that direction. They have a couple of legitimate criticism about the Federal Reserve System and I agree some reform should be in order but… there couple of “good points” are hidden in a mountain of conspiracy theory garbage. They have to offer up anything remotely close to a working idea for a replacement, no less an actual good one.
