The Fed is composed of the same bloodlines of shylock and money-changers that have been stealing at will from the people for ages. They can expand/contract the silly fiat magic green toilet paper at will to steal as much as they want. It is simply an scheme for indirect theft, through "legitimate" counterfeiting. Even if we chose to use fiat currency, it should at least be Constitutional, in that it was under the control of Congress. (Even though "our" government would be just as bad a den of thieves.) I'd rather the State be stealing from the populace rather than Rothschilds and Morgans...
It's funny, I've met two quite literally schizophrenic people in my life. Both would rant on about the federal reserve. I've met, quite literally, hundreds of economists in my life. None of whom think we should be getting rid of central banks.
Who's advice should we follow? The uneducated tin foil hat wearing crazy people or the well educated people who know a lot about macroeconomics.
Remember when Greenspan said there was no housing bubble and publicly encouraged people to get subprime loans? Remember when Bernanke said the subprime loan crisis was 'contained'?
These people aren't stupid, they're crooks.
The 1 perent are stripping America like a thanksgiving turkey, with the protection of Obama, Congress and the Fed.

3. there is a good solid list of guys that stand well ahead of Andy Jackson on the list of bad presidents even if walleyed progs dont like him... which is weird because he was the great early populist....
of course if you are a native American then you probably rather dislike the guy
Yeah, other than destroying the economy and committing genocide he wasn't bad.
It is to be regretted that the rich and powerful too often bend the acts of government to their selfish purposes. –Andrew Jackson
Was Ron Paul, our nations last chance to kill the monster, that is at the root of all evil?
Will there be another?
Why hate the rich, though? There are always going to be folks who are smarter, work harder, save more, and take greater risks.
And when they get a little ahead, it's natural for them to use their resources to influence the government in ways that are favorable to them. The poor and the middle class do the same thing.

But the middle class is failing themselves. They have been too divided and/or confused to get their share the last few decades.
I came across a few quotes that tell exactly why the Federal Reserve is very bad.
I think they accurately describe the economic situation we face today. Andrew Jackson; the only president to abolish the Central Bank and the only president who got rid of the national debt.
The bold effort the present (central) bank had made to control the government … are but premonitions of the fate that await the American people should they be deluded into a perpetuation of this institution or the establishment of another like it. –Andrew Jackson
I am one of those who do not believe that a national debt is a national blessing, but rather a curse to a republic; inasmuch as it is calculated to raise around the administration a moneyed aristocracy dangerous to the liberties of the country. –Andrew Jackson
Gentlemen, I have had men watching you for a long time and I am convinced that you have used the funds of the bank to speculate in the breadstuffs of the country. When you won, you divided the profits amongst you, and when you lost, you charged it to the bank. You tell me that if I take the deposits from the bank and annul its charter, I shall ruin ten thousand families. That may be true, gentlemen, but that is your sin! Should I let you go on, you will ruin fifty thousand families, and that would be my sin! You are a den of vipers and thieves. –Andrew Jackson

Andrew Jackson is dead - and we, the living, are not getting rid of the FED. Get use to it.
