Thank you Dr. Ron Paul for your insight on the federal reserve. I feel a little more educated about how the fed reserve came about. Paul goes through great lengths in explaining why our dollar is done for and we need the gold standard back. Paul also explains his conversations with Greenspan, whom I will add that at one time agreed with the gold standard in the late 60s. Paul explained to Greenspan in several conversations his worry about the housing bubble and what we need to do in order to stop it. There is so much that I can write about this book, however I feel one must read it to fully understand it better. End the Fed now! Audit it!
ron paul 2012 end the fed ronpaul2008.com During libertarianish Republican Ron Paul's 2008 presidential campaign, thousands of his supporters burned dollar bills while chanting the anti-monetarist mantra "End the Fed!" Fresh from writing "The Revolution," a bestselling rant against big government, the Texas congressman has made that Jeffersonian slogan the thesis of his new book, a meandering diatribe against central planning, inflationary monetary policy and "the swollen ego of a Fed chairman." "Nothing good can come from the Federal Reserve," Paul writes. It's "immoral, unconstitutional, impractical, promotes bad economics, and undermines liberty." In light of America's possibly-over-or-maybe-just-beginning economic downturn, Paul's fetish for the free market and the gold standard may be appropriate: If we're still not sure whether FDR-sponsored Keynesianism ended the Great Depression or contributed to it, perhaps Ben Bernanke-sponsored bailouts aren't such a super idea. But Paul's constitutionalist prescriptions to end the "welfare-warfare" state -- which include "letting everyone get into the business of the production of money," Colonial-style -- showcase a suspicion of moderate market intervention that even his ardent acolytes may not share. Remember, they burned $1 bills -- not $100 bills.Read full review
Talk about easy reading...Ron Paul did a great job keeping me interested and understanding what he was saying. I love when he votes, he compares the legislation up against the Constitution and if the legislation doesn't coincide with one of the most beloved documents in the world, then he doesn't vote for it. And getting rid of the Federal Reserve should be our TOP priority!
End the Fed is a very interesting read. It provides many compelling reasons for why the Federal Reserve should be ended. The footnotes point to many other valuable reference.
