THIS IS PART 1 of an 8-PART EPISODE http://baitandswitchtv.com by Leesa Stanion | Stanion Studios. "What is the Federal Reserve?" Few people can actually answer that question. We interviewed leading economists, authors, Wall Street bankers, politicians (and other entertainers) about one of the most critical controversies (and controversial institutions) of our time: The US Federal Reserve. And then, we took a shower.

Bait and Switch TV: Investigative Satire
[STANION STUDIOS] Presents Part 1 of 8 segments in the controversial saga of the Federal Reserve Banking system. Firmly rooted at the center of the current financial crisis, the Federal Reserve holds the purse strings for the USA monetary system. So it is hardly conspiracy theory to wonder about why this private and mega-powerful "federal" reserve system has been so controversial since its inception, why President Jackson was so opposed to a cartel as our central bank, what are the Fed's actual factual successes and failures over the last 100 years, and how does currency, and control of that currency, determine the balance of power in a nation, and the world.

Bait and Switch TV makes the financial collapse fun, and easy enough for a child to understand. But fun bedtime stories aside, we also propose real, obtainable, non-extreme alternatives to Federal Reserve Banking in this BSTV episode, including an in-depth look at the promising prospects of public, state-owned banks. Public banking can circumvent the federal reserve system without upsetting necessary capitalist apple carts, like the credit system, essential to a healthy and innovating economy.

UPCOMING SEGMENTS in this comedic documentary "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Bank?" --with Bait and Switch TV's Expert Interviews & Comedian Correspondents:

o History of the Federal Reserve & Fractional Lending

o The Fed, Shadow Banking & Leveraged Buyouts (LBOs)

o Federal Reserve, BIS, IMF & Global Investment Banks

o Government Sachs, Futures, Front-Running & the Fed

o The Fed, Discounts, Derivatives & Re-emerging Cap&Trade

o End the Fed? Meh! It's Never Gonna Happen

o WHAT TO DO: TAKING BACK THE MONETARY SYSTEM -- The Fed VERSUS State-Owned Public Banks

So subscribe to BSTV and get a taste of our controversial and sizzling hot investigative issues --dipped, deep-fried, and drizzled with comedy. Why dish up and season life and death topics with humor? Leesa Stanion | Stanion Studios takes serious subjects and produces comedic investigative documentaries with expert interviews, animations, satire, and music because, sometimes, laughter can help make reality just a little more palatable.

    Don't be sooo surprised. The Federal Reserve is a Corporation. It is a bank for BANKERS. It is privately own. The more you know the more you grow. Educate yourself.

    Hit the nail on the head, this was funny as hell.. just wait till they drop that dollar and call it a state of emergency and offer you a 1% Retainment rate on the new currency they print out any ways.... want the funny part.... you the citizen still owe the debt.

    you still have options become a slave or go to jail for even thinking of protesting..

    have fun with that =)
