Agreed
The farm bill hurt the economy. Sellers couldn't meet market demands because the market was no longer controlled by supply and demand.
The set prices didn't fall and people couldn't afford to purchase food. Some could. Those were the ones whose wages were set higher by FDR.
As long as government gets involved in the economy business, we the people will suffer.
My thoughts too ... as it seems the evidence points in that direction.
Is bread still not cheap compared to average wages? Bread is probably cheaper than it's ever been....
Who cares about gold? If it was truly valuable it would serve or be a part of some sort of industrial process outside of currency.
But it is . It's used heavily in technology and cell-phones.
But historically, yes it has been used as currency-and up until around 2006 the value was determined by the Rothschilds in London-the same family that helped to create the Federal Reserve banking system.
This act of 1913 is the keystone of crony capitalism economics and dysfunctional globalism. The ignorant leftists and progressives like to blame capitalism. Real capitalism is not afflicted with crony economics.
These leftists are so ignorant and/or sneaky that they fail to see and/or acknowledge that this act 1913 and the subsequent effects are the cause of most crony capitalism on a large scale as it stands today. Very foolish people.
Without crony capitalism the MAJORITY of democrats and progressives would be unemployed and very needy.
But notice, most leftists and democrats are still VERY NEEDY.
The progressive ideology is an absolute failure and disgrace.

That is not the point.
The impoverished and the elderly on fixed incomes, pay the price for inflating the monetary system.
It is the hidden tax.
When times are good the banks are rolling in it
When times are bad, the people pay the price, not the banks.

IMO the ultimate of capitalism/crony capitalism is monopolies. No thanks.

Well, we take care of the poor and elderly and with COL adjustments. Welfare, SS and Medicare.
And of course we take care of our banks. The rich take care of themselves.
The middle class needs the break. And if I were king that break would be through HC benefits.
