It's not hard to see why Grayson is out of office, is it? I'm surprised he hasn't had a "helicopter accident" or been found with Cancer, suddenly, in different parts of his body like Chavez in Venezuela - who dares to think that Venezuela and its people should have a big controlling share of the oil beneath their feet - instead of a couple of corporations who never break a sweat and own & control everything from a distance.

So who told you that Grayson is "out of office" ? What are you trying to say?

He is making a lot of enemies, but that’s why we have people courageous like you to protect him. He is fighting for you. The FED is stealing the money from all of us and we all know and sit with the heads down in approval. At least he does something in an open, democratic process, within the legal frame that is still there (for now)

We may not have this legal frame in the very near future.

Mr. Grayson is great! But we don't need to audit the FED, we need to outlaw it!

The FED is an instrument which proved to be inefficient also, through the actions it took, enslaved the people of this country.

The Government, not the private interests, should have authority to issue money covered by goods and services produced in this country.FED issues FED banknotes of debt, your dollar.The FED pockets the interest on those notes ,which normally should belong to the US treasury.
