It should be, and while we're at it every publicly-held US company's books should be transparent. We're big boys and girls, we can manage the fallout.

No - A thorough audit would reveal its gender, and that is not an issue germane or pertinent to its function.

Yes - The world needs to know what the hell is going on.

No - Its exposed activities would only be used to install World Bank or IMF as the globalist control mechanism for world dominance of each individual.

I agree. Corporations really suck.

I even wonder in which State the Federal Reserve Bank is incorporated.

Wouldn't mind getting a look at their Articles of Incorporation, too.

You need a "Certainly not" radio button in that poll.

"The Federal Reserve can enter into agreements with foreign central banks and foreign governments, and the GAO is prohibited from auditing or even seeing these agreements," said Dr. Paul. "Why should a government-established agency, whose police force has federal law enforcement powers, and whose notes have legal tender status in this country, be allowed to enter into agreements with foreign powers and foreign banking institutions with no oversight?


that is the million dollar question!

I can see (or have been presented with) no good or logical reason why it should not be audited and accountable.

since you voted against it, could you tell me why you think a private mega bank should have control over the flow of our currency without having to report how it is spent, especially if some of this money is flowing out of the country?

With over 280 cosponsors, how is it that HR1207 hasn't moved to the floor. Who exactly is preventing this? Is it Frank, Pelosi???
