Ron Paul "This Belief Is A Dream! That Will Become A Nightmare! For All Americans!

[ieatdeadbabies101]

mr spincter? ahahahaha your time has ended YES BROWNEYE!! hahahahaha

[mexxxking]

the only fair banking system are safety deposit boxes, and every citizen can use and offer that service, everything else is just a scam, with friends like you I dont need any enemies

[artemizzy]

i appreciate him doing something with what he have where he is...... now if only all people (in different part of society) do something with what they have where they are....in the name of freedom....... little things matter and can make a big difference....

[cyberneticsurferboy]

Audit the fed and shit will hit the fan. People are not ready for the truth. Besides that the fed res will probably create a massive distraction to smoke screen any results of an audit.

[oa515oa515]

How much longer is Ron Paul going to bang his head against the wall?

[waterse]

We want real change!!! Ron Paul 2012!!!

[shoexy]

lol, he speaks so clear. i bet americans dont understand english. lol

[XXXoXXoXXXX]

I love this guy! Ron Paul is the man. I just wish he had more power to fix this mess.

[PoliticsAddict]

fucking awesome speech. ron paul really targets bernanke in this one and makes it known that it's a bullshit arguement for the "independence of the fed". think, secrecy! ron paul real patriot of america!

[Akillesblood]

Central Banks make many people wealthy, however, that is no reason to justify there existence. History will tell you that the share holders of those

Central Banks fill their pockets with the loot stolen from the middle class and poor. If an organization's philosophy is where the end always justifies the means then that organization's philosophy is fallacious.

[MegaFreedomlover]

dslcobra you obviously have no idea how americans think.. ron paul is a savior to the people if they'd wake up and listen. and he says up front it will hurt for awhile but the market will take over and things get better. this is what i know. whats being done now and done in the past hasn't worked. lets give ron a chance.. if you do live in am erican mabe you should move elsewhere. your negativity is not needed here.

[daconqueror101]

I agree 100%

[Graham6762]

Why would any country agree to have international bankers to run their country?

[daconqueror101]

because people are not very intelligent, you see, politicians promise prosperity but they don't say how. If they explained how, people who realize that something fishy was going on, they would put 2 and 2 together. But since politicians don't, then people just smile and cheer

[littlebuddy149722]

To those who are unsure of RP, or who don't know much about him, I offer this. I have been following him since Aug. 2007. I have come to the conclusion that he is a rare politician who has no hypocrisy, and is truly interested in seeing our Govt function the way it was intended to. He is on our side. Many of the negative posts on his videos are deliberate smear jobs against him by people who want a corrupted system.

[Akillesblood]

History will tell you its the Central BAnks

[ikbenmaxwell]

Your right, with that attitude going around it might never happen. But what are you trying to say are we screwed already or are you just pesemistic?

Cause you seem to know whats happening yet you don't seem to support auditting goverments nr 1 source of dirty money the FED.

[ikbenmaxwell]

You do realise Ron Paul is planning to audit one of those corporations to stop bullshit interpretations from companies like the FED who (seeing the state of USA) have not served its countries intrests but the intersts of its banks. Who have been loosing its intrests (A.K.A money) again by the way.

And pls never say never cause it willput you in a place of ignorance.

[shocktreatmenthead]

sure he wants our enocomy to fail (srsasm) while our president spening like a nut helps it ,right?

[willisweede1]

Audit the damn fed already! It's been near 100 yrs and no one knows where the money goes and to who? C'mon man!

[littlebuddy149722]

I agree with willisweede1. Auditing the Fed is a no brainer. A full and thourough audit.

[Buckman82]

4years

[Boatflix]

"More regulations will never compensate for all the distortion and excesses caused by monetary inflation and artificially low interest rates. Regulation distracts from the real cause while further interfering with the market forces, thus guaranteeing that the recession will become much deeper and prolonged."

That's exactly right.

[enemyartistkristofeR]

Support HR1207 $ S604 - Audit the FED - Shed light on the Secrets of the FED - That will more than likely end up with Bernanke locked away for TREASON, thats what he is really afraid of! Then when the people know the TRUTH - we can END The FED!

Ron Paul for President 2012!

[czubspenx]

Way to go. Excellent. Before long, we will all be millionaires because the dollar is down 17% this year alone against other major foreign currencies. How great! The government is making us all millionaires and pretty soon, we will all be billionaires. Life is good!

[czubspenx]

Both parties belong to the same special interests. You know that. There has been no change. Bush started the bailouts, Obama continued the bailouts. Bush ramped up Iraq, Obama ramps up Afghanistan. Bush lies, Obamam lies. I hope things go well for you. Good luck.

[MrTussock]

I  S O WANT A L L USA folks to back this guy. He needs all the support he can get cause the sods with the biggest bank account will bribe and corrupt all the people they can to silence him. May we all pray that JFK wasn't the last to up-hold the view that the Fed was not operating in the best interests of the country (nor the rest of the world.) You have people outside the US who greatly admire you & support your views.

May God be ever in your presence.

[queenappa86]

As an American, it's heartbreaking to consider the fact that most of my fellow citizens fail to see or accept the truths that he presents. The fact is that people just aren't "ready" to see just how far we have fallen. I'm not saying that this is right, it's terrible. We've become passive as a nation and as a people and we need to WAKE UP. I just hope that somehow the population at large will be able to see that as well. Right now, unfortunately, I fear that won't be the case.

[82markyboy]

Ron Paul you legend! Kick out the FED, the Rothchilds and the rockerfellers. They are the scum of the world.

[rtardbox]

st. peter will let ron paul in.... the rest of 'em will go to hell

ron paul, visionary - the leader we needed

[MendingMedia]

To dslcobra: Then America will never be more than what you see right now.

[czubspenx]

Did you vote for Obama because he promised change, openess, troops out of the mid east, fiscal responsibility, no lobbyists, no earmarks, etc. Why did you vote for him? That's all I want to know.

[czubspenx]

Whatever Ron Paul is, he is so much more than Bush Sr., Clinton, Bush Jr or Obama.

[ManufacturedThoughts]

US Federal Reserve Bank & US Military Industrial Complex = The largest Corporate Terrorist Organization in the World.

[CarryANationIII]

How is that "Obama Change" working out for you?

Obama just reappointed Ben Bernkae, the Jew banker about to be reamed by Congress.

It was Geroge W. Bush that first appointed Bernake, and not Obama has reappointed him.

How is that "change" working out for you? LOL

[rtardbox]

amen! great comment!

[garimaheath]

I believe and trust Ron Paul.

[czubspenx]

Ron Paul is the only person I trust in Washington.

[zdwade]

ron rules

[datpiffny]

@ lemon... no one is listening? wtf are u talking about that's why he has over 300 CO sponsors on his bill to audit the fed... the people are waking up and know wuts going on and do not want the FED anymore!

[LemonAndYoghurt]

Ron Paul save your breath! Nobody is listening. As if we were in the Twilight=zone or something.

[monicapttrsn]

Dear Dave777blaster, what happened in Britian on December 1st?

[trainbike47]

Paul killed it in the last 1 minute. Wow.

[Taors]

Still going strong...Ron's like a bull.

[dave777blaster]

On Dec 1 Britain died and not a single American noticed, but what has happened to Britain is scheduled to happen to America.

The days are numbered for freedom in America

and there is going to be one hell of an uprising the likes of which no Americans alive have ever seen.

for the cat is out of the bag and the agenda will still move forward .

[1st300bp]

he still continues to try and make a different--he still spreads his message--i think that is all that is important to him--not to get the presidency

[abbesieyes]

the FED - The Roman Money Cartel in the US.

Rome..the mother of all centralization of power.

One leg of Inquisition and Counter Reformation, writ Global.

[MrMrbobblehead]

I cant believe you people think ron paul can do anything differnt

[researchin]

Now I understand why your name is "bobblehead"

[Shaunt1]

Damn Bernanke, stealing from us all!

[audiohi]

Pauls problem is his lack of ignorance lol.

[omitsura]

I'm not aware of a single gold currency that remained either. So perhaps there are other factors in determining whether a country and it's currency are relevant other than the composition/backing of the currency.

[Firebirrd85]

If he runs again he gets my vote.

[jstubbles]

I always liked Ron Paul. But I knew he didn't have a chance, sadly. :(

[spyletu]

@jstubbles not if there's a turnaround in american's level of ignorance. either way that would be american's fault, not his.

[har818]

you are aware some half the people in the states dont even know the name of the vice president let alone Ron Paul. He doesn't have the slightest chance of even coming remotely close to winning a presidency. PERIOD. If you vote for paul and take a vote from the democrats, you might as well vote republican.

[researchin]

The corrupt politicians have done a good job of keeping the most honest man in Congress a secret.

[jpcl21]

Why would voting for paul take a vote from a democrat?

[bret14jb]

That is a very poor argument that one should not vote for Ron Paul. Voting for the "lesser of two evils" is the biggest thing stoping real political change from happening, and the people who vote that way are the biggest part of the problem. And besides that, we're looking for Ron Paul to win the Republican nomination in 2012 anyway. Take no offense, please. I'm just very passionate about this topic.

[czubspenx]

This country really only has a one party system. Both parties subscribe to the same special interests. Where Bush left off, Obama has taken over. No change. No nothing. Just the same old, same old. What this country needs is a viable third party candidate that will keep his campaign promises, unlike the lying Bush and Obama.

[stonenotes]

in my opinion Dr. Ron Paul reminds me of Thomas Jefferson seeing as how Ron Paul shares very similar ideals on the banking systems as Jefferson did. Jefferson distrusted banks and for good reason! historically speaking Jefferson has been noted to be one of the greatest presidents of the US and Ron Paul is our modern day Jefferson.

[mjs1231]

lol

[mjs1231]

Long live the Republic

and

Death to the new world order.

[warman58]

Who does this Paul guy think he is? We have nothing to worry about. We have a cool black president who plays basket ball. All the world must be jealous of our mocha messiah.

[blackraider777]

lol

[shiddy67]

You rock,Dr.Paul...

I wish I worked for you.

[tuktukktotam]

that statement proves they knew long time ago that their time is over

[tuktukktotam]

Federal Reserve outlived itself Alan Greenspan , former Fed chairman

[TheForwardGaze]

Gee, Uncle Wingnut, tell us what the American economy was like when it was on the gold standard in the 19th Century. The economy was much more stable back then, wasn't it?

[leafwatch]

We've had more and worse bubbles and busts since the dollar was entirely cut from gold backing. Is it so hard for you to understand that unrestricted inflation and contrived interest rates devalue the dollar? Enjoy your faith-based paper currency while it lasts. Never has a fiat currency lasted the long haul. Empires fall because they overspend, over-reach and debase the money and wreck the economy Gold has been money from ancient Egypt right up until today, still valuable. Paper? Not so.

[lemoore77]

Faggot?...Far from it.

...and this coming from someone tha calls themselves "smegmafairy"???

Calling him names only proves that you want to keep your head in the comfortable and incremental sand of militarism and corporatism....wake up and get some balls or stfu!...What have you got against the Constitution as it is written and in full?

[Zile77]

Don't worry, Oblama is gonna take care of it even if he has to destroy the world, which is his real plan anyway.

[BaseballGod31]

omg ur so fucking funny you spelt obama with an 'l' to make fun of him and yea he wants to blow up the world!

[louis12346]

As the Kyoto Protocols Clean Development Mechanism pollutes water, destroys farmland, poisons people, and displaces entire populations, the money interests behind the possibly soon $10 Trillion emission market are lauding themselves for saving the planet and preventing global warming. In fact, what they are actually doing is destroying lives and immorally disregarding the human rights of millions of people, people whose carbon footprint isnt 1/1,000 of Al GoresGoldman executives

[scaryhobo]

i wonder if anyone else in congress understands what he is saying

[Traveler2112]

Very few. Maybe Kucinich, Grayson, Nader but not many others.

[Traveler2112]

I sure there are other but they don't have the umm testicular fortitude to do what Ron Paul does. Simply He speaks HIS mind.

[GRIMTICK]

Barr, Root too

[Traveler2112]

Its a shame the guys that have a clue are not really given a chance to really lead. Although they are from different parties it would be nice if ppl like Paul, Kucinich, Grayson, Barr, and Nader, Schiff and the others who still believe in some sound basic principles could form their own party. Even if they don't agree with each other on it all, these guys seem to have a willingness to try to work together. I think the average person would back them. I'd back a new party to break the biopoloy.

[imtc88]

Who is Ron Paul? What is inflation? What is a Fiat currency?  What is the defination of dollar, what defines it's value? What is a central bank, and who owns it.? Why can't I print money?

[corneliusgoldlover]

watermark=retard

Ron Paul wouldn't automatically and all at once get off our current system. To say we need it changed doesn't mean this second! He is very intelligent and knows it would require a lot of time.

[sarahsgift1]

Ron Paul is one of the few politicians that has any common sense and works to protect the best interests of the Taxpayer. Time to end the Fed!

[ausscyn]

WHY isn't Ron Paul our President?

Here, we have one of the most brilliant men in Congress, who does not get the bully pulpit he deserves. Thank God for the internet. At least all of us out here who know what is really going on have a way to disseminate the truth!

[iiguns]

Because of this man I bought gold when it was a tad under $400.00 now its over $1100.00

and silver when it was under $6.00 now its at over $20.00. Is he telling the truth? Look at the numbers they do not lie.  Thanks Doc.

[mrgrackle]

Due to him I got in at the $700s. I dont think $2000 is crazy.

[Dethreid]

@iiguns just like real estate, silver and gold are subject to bubbles, the demand for gold is what is driving the price up to the point where you are better off with fed notes that depreciate at 5% instead of losing half your money when people figure out the demand for gold is people looking to resell it....then it pops =D.

Only thing that has guaranteed value in this world is food and a roof over your head.

[namehoela]

another great speech!

[z3ro66]

go ron paul...

the money masters WILL have their day...

people need to stand up.. and stand together..

love from scotland

[Watermark0n]

If we switched away from a central bank to the gold standard it would mean that the economy would adjust to the money supply - and not the other way around. Paul is an economic illiterate.

[OctoBox]

Watermark: Your understanding of Ron Paul and free-markets shows your illiteracy.

RP has said he wants "competition" in currency -- not GOING BACK to Gov't Regulated Gold-Backed Currency; it was never in the free-market (in other words).

[fortsmith1]

The Central bank is causing most of our problems. Let Congress issue the money not a bunch of money grubbing bankers.

[TheEbonicslover]

it weed out the parasites like you :)

[dashxdr]

Interesting. 96 years have passed, and 96% of the dollar's value is gone. Coincidence? I think not!

[fortsmith1]

Go Ron Paul. End The Fed!!!

Ben Bernanke can eat sh*t

[snowtrot]

go go paul!

[feeknocks]

Is it me or does Ron Paul seem a little younger and healthier than usual in that video

[iamscoops]

Note that we don't see the other 2008 Presidential candidates appearing on mainstream media today... Ron Paul is the only 2008 candidate with regular appearances on news and financial networks, and the message is reaching people.

[healyourself]

Please, please, please can you guys clone him and send us a copy in Sweden?!!

We are sooo screwed here!

:(

Ron Paul is the man!

[TheGaryNOVA]

Ron Paul is the man.

[Firebirrd85]

The only man left who can save America.

RON PAUL 2012

[iamscoops]

He can only help to save America; he can't do it alone.

[LiveFreeOrDieNow]

Thanks for being on the peoples' side Ron Paul. You are one of the less than 1% of our representatives who actually do their job.

If only we could wake up the sheep and show them the light you are shining on these criminals in our government...

[MerlinHawk007]

"Unfair & Biased"?

...geez, that inadvertently lies about Ron Paul and his messages?!

(upset with "MOX News" slogan, not with Dr. Paul)

[jetsettosocal]

Are you serious or do you not get the joke?

Fox News... Fair and Unbiased

[MerlinHawk007]

There is more than 1 joke here...

...one is played against FOX News (which they deserve for being unfair and biased, though the other 4 also are),

whereas the other joke is (inadvertently?) against Ron Paul and his messages :(

[midwestcharm]

If you have $100,000 in the stock market and the market loses %30 you have $70,000. If the market regains %30 you only have $91,000. It's a fixed scam to steal money.

[birdsarewild]

If the cost of a loaf of bread goes from 50 cents to $2 it does not hurt the person who has $1000 initially as much as does the person who only has $50. De-valuing federal reserve notes pushes more & more people into poverty. The slower it is done the less people notice it & start to accept inflation as normal. After two generations many people think this is normal. This is not normal, it is immoral & flat out theft disguised as inflation to the people who accept inflation as normal.

[truefictions]

Go Ron Paul!

Nice video 5 stars.

Peace

[ScienceArtSpirit]

END THE FED

[sx200ser]

in the end the poor will pay there bills shop etc, thus getting money back to banks and boosting the economy

[sx200ser]

not only are banks or central banks evil, they adjusted interest rates based on inflation, effecting home loans credit cards etc. what the FED should do is stop printing and recall some money as they loan it out at interest. we only have a poor and middle class recession, so recalling loaned money from the rich and other countries Congress could give it back as tax cuts for the poor/middle class or do a stimulus check say only for anyone under 100k, say 5k for under 50k and 2.5k for 100k

[soundmoneyfan]

if they "recall some money" they can only do it through the open market committee (t-bill transactions) which would spike interest rates or else they would have to sell the garbage mortgage paper they bought from the banks under the crisis created TALF program, both of these ways will bankrupt even more financial institutions (there are more than 200 banks on the FDIC list), so it would be a big loser for the banks, and the Fed is owned by the banks (and not the people), that will never happen

[sx200ser]

interest rate are already up, that is for bank loans and credit, home values fell in part do to inflation, so banks charge more interest on a home worth less then loan value and then more to cover inflation. If we increase taxes on the rich recall some not all money supply by FED interest rates, we can deflate the money supply reducing debt by an increase in value of the US dollar. problem left is GDP as it would be cheaper to buy overseas goods with a strong dollar, I admit a short term fix

[soundmoneyfan]

sorry man but you are wrong. I'm all in favor of taxing the rich to get our fiscal house in order, but monetary policy is obviously something you dont understand in reading your response. You dont reduce debt by deflation. The debt is a set number and if you pay it back with a stronger dollar it cost more in real terms. Inflation is good for debtors. The Fed only sets the Fed funds rate, the rates you and I pay are set n the market, if the Fed Fed funds rate is raised, more foreclosures

[sx200ser]

that's not totally right, our debt is a matter of inflation/spending/and owed to other creditor countries like you said earlier. treasury bills, we won't factor obligated debts in this. but making 1 dollar worth 50 cents doubles inflation/spending/and debt owed to countries buying our securities. deflation would cause at home prices to reflect real wages, so double dollar value and buying domestic at half cost, it also lowers oil barrel cost to us as it in traded in US dollars

[soundmoneyfan]

Wrong. You are acting like deflation would not cause a fall in wages. I hate inflation as much as you do, but the reason I commented at all was because you said in your first comment "what the Fed should do" and I was trying to point out that the Fed cannot shrink the money supply what so ever without bankrupting more financial institutions. since the Fed is owned by member banks and is not controlled by the people, to think it would work in the favor of the people flies in the face of reality.

[haze42082]

thanks mox

[prayfortruejustice]

So close, Mr. Paul, so close. God bless you - for your are the only one in Congress who has been consistently and diligently been pursuing the root cause of it all (The FED) for over 20 years. GOD bless you.

4:46 [America needs a secret private cartel with the tools to promote financial stability in the midst of a horrendous financial crisis and help steer our economy to recovery without inflation.]

This dream will become a nightmare for all Americans unless we come to our senses...

[Capnwabbit]

Even by Paul's standard this was hard-hitting and direct. And I'm liking it! :o)

[Fogbats]

We should have never gotten rid of Glass-Steagall... Here's hoping that we've learned from our mistakes.

People saying that it's regulation that caused this and not the DEregulation are hopelessly confused, likely from the misinformation fed to them by those in the media paid for by the bankers which are lining their pockets at American's expense. Go ahead and keep believing their lies while they pick your pockets, go ahead fighting against laws that would stop them from wringing you dry...

[soundmoneyfan]

if it wasn't for the ability of the Fed to create money (recreate the monetary value of my labor with a flip of a switch) and the ability for banks to collect interest on money that they never got from customers or the Fed, there would be no need for a Glass-Steagall because massive speculation could not be rewarded in the market one day and bailed-out by the Fed or gov't the next day. That is the point that Dr. Paul is getting at. If you want banks creating money, youdo need regs, blame Clinton

[MooseOfReason]

Fogbats, If you think that was the cause of the housing boom and subsequent bust, you are mistaken.

The Federal Reserve created this.

[byronshero]

Ron Paul getting raw on those bitches which is exactly what he needs to do!

[55ella2007k]

@SurviveWorldWarIII: this is historical revisionism at its best! And one look at your channel, betrays your agenda, which proclaims: "White Europeans where the original inhabitants of this country" - Yeah,right.

I agree, that the Fed should be audited, but the mechanism of global finance is far more complicated than just the Fed alone. It goes much, much deeper than this.

[SurviveWorldWarIII]

Historical Revisionism? Please. Do you know anything about Economics? I don't think so. Free Market economics works. The government destroys our economy through regulations.

The FED sucking money out of circulation caused the crash in the 20s

[imaginator09]

Go, Ron Paul, go! Yeah! Finally! He's PISSED!

[mexcurmudgeon]

The Fed needs to go, but I have to disagree with Dr. Paul about this: regulation isn't the enemy here - it's regulation WITHOUT ENFORCEMENT. Right now we have the foxes guarding the henhouse, and tools like Geithner and Bernanke aren't going to do jack to impede their friends' ability to rip off your average Joe!

[55ella2007k]

mexcurdmudgeon: yes, I agree - although I would go one step further: deregulation of the banking sector is part of the reason for this crisis, and the Fed itself supported this deregulation all the way. Greenspan didn't lift a finger, and neither did Congress for the most part. This was long in the making, and did not happen just within the last decade.

[Capnwabbit]

Deregulation is misleading as it leaves out the bit about government backing and bailouts, along with protectionism and legal tender laws, essentially creating a cabal of banksters without real money or real competition

[eightbitgnosis]

How delightfully vague. Kinda like asking for more laws with no regard to what you want done

[SaveOurSovereignty3]

thanks for posting man

[xwolflowx]

END THE FED!!! SAVE THE FREEDOM!!!

watch "Money Masters" and learn about the history of our nations escape from financial dictatorship imposed by England. Learn about how the FED was formed and how it works. COLONIAL SCRIPT ... F#$^ THE FED!!!

[GRIMTICK]

Crazy Ron Paul the FED is our best friend! They only have the peoples best interest in mind. They have nothing to do with the economic crisis. They just wanna hug us and give us puppy doggies that fart rainbows.

[danbowski40]

LOL!

[imaginator09]

ROFLMFAO!!!

[LouieArrighi]

realistic solution- reinstate all Glass Steagall regulations. the Great Depression was because of no regulations. Ron Paul says end the fed. like that will ever happen. I'm just wishing for regulation that kept the Fed afloat after the Great Depression until 1999 when regulations were stripped which caused the housing boom.

[SurviveWorldWarIII]

The Great Depression was lengthened by overregulating the economy and the federal government sticking its hand into the Free Market. Regulation always results in higher prices.

[Homer177]

And capitalist extremism always results in everything ending up in the hands of the few. Then again, that's what they want. They've achieved this result with more than just capitalism. They've used War, Religion and government against the people in order to get what they want: Total control, and what do we do about it? Whine and argue at each other while pointing the finger and saying "It's YOUR fault!" Everything from money to Jesus himself is a man made construct. It's time we let go.

[opsocftw]

completely unrealistic. yes money is man made, but so are the good's and services it's traded for. without a sound medium of exchange(non-fiat/money), people would be stealing and pillaging from each other left and right.

[LouieArrighi]

the Great Depression was caused by a bubble caused by Let it Be economics. regulations kept us afloat up until 1999. Let it Be was implemented in 1999by stripping regulations which caused another bubble.

[libertyplayground]

incorrect - the federal reserve was instituted 1913 and caused an Austrian business cycle due to its monetary manipulation.

Mises and Hayek predicted it using their knowledge of business cycles, while Keynes lost his money.

In short, there was no laissez-faire policy then.

[LouieArrighi]

hey DIPSHIT, EVERY MOTHER F----R ON YOUTUBE KNOWS WHEN THE FED WAS CREATED. ANSWER MY QUESTION ABOUT LAISSEZ-FAIRE ECONOMICS!| IT CAUSED THE GREAT DEPRESSION PLUS THIS LATEST HOUSING BUBBLE. OBVIOUSLY, YOU KNOW WE ARE ON A FIAT MONETARY SYSTEM AND HAVE BEEN SINCE THEN. WHEN HAS IT WORKED AND WHEN HASN'T GO TO F---N COLLEGE DUMBARSE

[SurviveWorldWarIII]

Free Market economics works fine. The problem is when government tries to regulate the economy, like when they made banks give mortgages to people who couldn't afford them.

[SurviveWorldWarIII]

The Great Depression was caused by the Fed loaning out too much money during the "roaring 20s" and then sucking out 1/3 of the money in circulation. This is why Bernanke is committed to inflationary policies. The FED's regulations were the cause. Once again, regulations destroying the economy.

[LouieArrighi]

again, giving out too much money just like the latest housing bubble. why???? because they could.

[SurviveWorldWarIII]

I'd suggest because they wanted to destroy the economy and get more power from the "crisis".

[libertyplayground]

believe me, those regulations won't help... the money just gets steered into other places.

You have to strike the root - the monetary system itself.

[LouieArrighi]

and you actually believe that will realistically happen?
