Do you mean that you didn't even realize that The Fed is private? The voters do not own it.

I swear, you folks have just magically absolved the banks that prospered at the expense of us all under deregulation. Ease off that corporate tit.

You're the one claiming the FED is a government entity. If it is, voters can make it accountable. It's as simple as that. Ron Paul is a joke.

Who is "you folks"? Glass-Stegal was eliminated under Bill Clinton. Bush tried to bring it back and the Democrat controlled Congress would not allow it to come to vote.

Still waiting for you to oppose what Paul has said about federal student loans with FACTS. Are you up to that or not?

Screw Ron Paul, he's a nut, a moron and NONE of his ideas are practical. I'll be glad when he goes back into his cave for another 4 years.
So you support more government interventionism into education then? You're fine with the government causing a distortion of the market causing a bubble to form, as all bubbles do, it will pop. When it does it has tragic consequences. Then you'll be back here whining that it was the "greedy private sector, if only we had more government oversight this would have never happened!" Rinse, recycle, repeat.

I never made such a claim that The FED was a government entity, never!

Reading is fundamental as is comprehension. You keep stating Paul is a joke but that is your misguided opinion because you refuse to study the facts and offer no facts of your own. As such it would seem you are the fool, not Paul.

And yet you still offer no facts, only name-calling and trolling. How do you exect anyone to take your claims seriously?
