"The Fed's Days Are Numbered" Ron Paul On The Crucial Issue "They" Don't Want To Talk About
Via SovereignMan.com's Simon Black,
Just had a great weekend in Dallas, where I had the pleasure of spending some time with Dr. Ron Paul.
After our event on Saturday we sat down to record a quick podcast that I’m eager to share with you.
In this quick audio session we covered his views on the biggest issues surrounding the Fed right now:
- Why the Fed is not going to raise interest rates
- How they’ve lost the power to manipulate markets
- How they rig half of every transaction you make
- The crucial issue that they don’t want people talking about
- And how they’ve made us poorer
You’ll definitely want to hear this.
"All The Fed has is credibility" and, as Ron Paul expounds, by folding on a 25bps rate hike, it tells you how fragile this system is... built on a foundation of sand."
Indeed, if stocks weren't held up, that would be another 'signal' of the fragility... "and that is why they created The Plunge Protection Team."
By "manipulating the most important price in markets," Paul concludes, "we are at the climactic end of the 'system' that started in August 1971."

The best Pres there never was.
END THE FED!!!
Nationalize the Fed.
Did that already. If no one has noticed, the Fed website is now .gov whereas two weeks ago it was .com This is not trivial, nor cosmetic.
Rumor has it that the pentagon has assumed control, as it has also assumed control of Goldman's contracted government benefits payment system.
Stay tuned. This won't be on TV for a while longer.
Honesty gets you nowhere in DC, nobody wants to hear it.
Kennedy executive order 11110, signed on June 4, 1963, took the Fed out of the loop of money creation. Five months later he was dead.
There needs to be a litmus test for allowing people to survive once the collapse comes. Do you know any-fucking-thing about the Federal Reserve, or the neocons, or the psychopathic CIA? No? Sorry, you're not worth saving..
No, we need a 50-million man/woman march on the scum in Washington D.C. We need it more than ever. Talk about change.....
Unfortunately this country has been completly gutted by cowardice, narcissism, and stupidity. Nothing will change until we go head first over the precipice.
Even the forest needs a good fire once in a while to burn out all the dead and rotten wood. It will happen in the U.S. very soon, and i think when we finally emerge, it will be beautiful.
SuperRay, you nailed it . I'd show up for THAT work detail .
I'm pretty sure you will know by the end of "Federal Reserve" whether to drop the hammer. A whole lot of useless spoiled entitled arrogant subhumans developed because of the Bankers credit bubble. If it is a catastrophic collapse.
Legislators have too much power. Period!

yep, I wrote RP in the last two presidential elections
Might as well have wrote it on a gum wrapper and tossed it out the window, just as many people would have seen it.
Yes,
The Best President America Never Had
and the crowd said " give us barnabas"
The discussion has been hijacked by those who posit that we should have a president at all.
They take it for granted that we need a president; the discussion, instead, should be whether we really need a president.
There it is! I like the way you think, cigarEngineer. It's high time people stop believing that a free country needs a leader.
I wildly agree with both of you, but wait to change horses until we have put our gov back inside the Constitutional box. Then we repeal all the laws back to 1776, and wait 20 years while things sort themselves out. At that point, we can decide on the horse.
Any other path, I think, will keep the kleptocrats in power years longer, make the fall longer.
Congress is an anachronism from a time where you had to take a stagecoach for days to reach the Capitol to discuss issues.
Today, these discussions happen in real-time, and each person can represent him- or herself. It is far easier to corrupt and pay off one person who represents a million votes, than it is to pay-off and corrupt a million voters.
Furthermore, as a response to people who argue that "people don't have the time and therefore elect representatives" — fine: each person is free to entrust with a voting-"power-of-attorney" to an organization that most closely follows his views. No more gerrymandering and disenfranchising large portions of the population. See? We're all on the same side here.
Sorry, but "Tyranny of the Majority" is no way to run a country.
It has been proven over and over again, the last time in Kiev, that the Banksters and their captured mecia are adept at rousing out the mob, to the detriment of every sane and peaceful person.
Did you mean "give us Barabbas?"
Maybe (s)he meant "Barnaby!"

If the Fed's days are numbered it's only because a new and even more horrible form of fascism awaits us.
yerssss, a misanthropic toxic phoenix that will rise from sewerage rather than flame
If the Fed's days are numbered it's only because a new and even more horrible form of facism awaits us.
ah, meat...we can always count on you!
The next version of this experience will involve a LOT of VIOLENCE. It's coming.......damn near by accident.
Is this a fact, or just your belief? According to people like you, there is no such thing as good news? There are no solutions. Only grief, sorrow, and misery? Is it time to immanetize the eschaton?
I don't know what worse could be coming, except to imagine yourself a Stalker in Half-life 2. Similar happened to the Northern Kingdom under the Assyrian. That is before they were completely exterminated. Is that what you hope for? If not, then how do you personally expect to escape it all? Create your very own wormhole to wherever?
This kind of fear porn is not at all constructive. The following is ..

When a certain group of people plan. Plan decades in advance. Decades to exact a result in order to prevent a larger disastrous result. History generally agrees that they will be successful. That humans are successful. Unless that some inhuman force intervenes to prevent it ..
Which side of history are you going to be on?
There is no 'the future'. We make the future. The internet changes everything, I am amazed by the speed of change. My newest thought says they are losing the propaganda war, and know it.

WELL WHAT THE FUCK IS TAKING SO LONG !!!!!
It's all that new math and now she's upside down on a trade.
It's like the paint is getting wetter.
Once the Republicans regain control the FED will be audited and ended........
For the sake of any animals or small children that may be in your home, I hope that is sarcasm.
Just like when the Republicans take contol we will get:
1. A balanced budget
2. Term limits
3. lower taxes
4. smaller government
5. less government waste
etc. etc.
None of which came to pass when they DID have both houses and W. was president. Instead, they acted just like fucking LIBERALS!
They repealed Obamacare too. How could you overlook such a crowning achievement.....?!
A statist is a statist is a statist.
indeed. and none of those statists want anything other than a large, intrusive government. Republicans aren't upset about the state of affairs, they just don't like not being in charge of it.
And it can't be overstated- last time the R team had complete control, can anyone name anything postive that came out of it? any kind of legislation that rolled back the welfare state or the warfare state? nope, they had a chance and did just what any thinking person should expect them to do- keep spending, keep ratcheting up government.
Ugh. Yes.
None of which came to pass when they DID have both houses and W. was president. Instead, they acted just like fucking LIBERALS!
because they are all the fucking same! there are no liberals or conservatives...there is only bought politicians... they're just successfully turning us against each other...what is it you don't get about that?
That is sarcasm; right?!
Hold some hope bro
Could happen (maybe and not holding my breath yet) with Trump. Not ended necessarily BUT audited.
From the perspective of the Fed members they can't be audited because they have been breaking the law.
They would destroy the system in order to cover up the crimes before they got audited.
Don't hold your breath.
I'm not worried about the Fed being eventually dissolved. I'm worried about the new global system they will try to replace it with, likely more tyrannical than we can imagine. Paying a portion of our production in income taxes makes every living person not within the criminal system a serf. We claim capitalism yet we don't even actually own our property. Try not paying property taxes to find out who the true owner is.
We have to restore the power of money creation to the Treasury. This is the single most important political goal and should be done by any means necessary and at any cost. Should even most of the world perish in this cause, it will be worth it, as we will start again...only this time free. Failure to do so may sentence the entire human race to centuries of enslavement.
Good job Mr Poopra
Do you honestly think your representatives in congress would act any differently than the Fed? They would print money to infinity too. Unless there is some sort of mechanism to prevent that---a gold standard----you can't bet your starry eyes that the "treasury" would make all the money they need too.
A return to a gold or commodity standard goes without saying if the Treasury would assume control again.
Also i would recommend any attempt at shifting money creation into private hands as an act of treason. Anyone caught should be shot like a dog, maybe after some sort of public humiliation. We can get creative here, guys.
You are wrong in advocating violence against those who create money privately.
Allow people to use whatever money they want. If I want to make CigarBucks, you are free to not accept them.
That is what will lead sound money to prosper: notes issued by the best-collaterized private banks will flourish and gain acceptance. A loss of confidence in the collateral will lead to fewer people accepting them as payment and their value will similarly decline.
Please, think for yourself and think carefully.
Ron Paul agrees. Competing currencies.
I did not advocate violence against those who create money privately. I advocate violence against those that commandeer supposed public institutions and, with deception and coercion, convince the populace that they still serve them when in reality they are now criminal enterprises that enrich their members by relegating our children to perpetual debt slavery or killed or maimed in their wars.
I think this is an obvious distinction.
One difference may make a difference: I was getting coffee at a Circle K last week and my represenative was there. We spoke for a minute. I scared him so he left. It was still somewhat cordial. He was there though. He doesn't have the money to be just "anywhere" like some of the other scum.
It's too late for a gold standard.
Anything we choose. For me, gold, not a gold standard.
Indeed. It may not be a pretty road but you are 100% correct. I am fed up and the rent is up as well.
The power of money creation rests with the PEOPLE.
Yes
Debt is the issue
Read Lords of finance
The Central bankers could not handle the debt of WW1
And the Central bankers cant handle the Socialist debt of 1965-2015
But Ron,
You offer no solution but bringing on the deflation of the Millennium
Going to gold did not help the people, but only the bankers
The reason being , according to Lords Of Finance?
You dont spend Gold. You convert your currency to Gold
And, when you do that you have a currency war as they did in 1931-33
Beggar thy neighbor
And the neighbor that was most beggared was Germany
They turned to you know who. A final solution -- I dont think sooooo.
Deflation = Bust, Inflation = Boom...It's called a cycle in a real free market economy. You can't have one without the other, except in a Keynesian CrackPipe Dream which is what our economy currently is.
The business cycle is created by Keynesian manipulations of the money supply and interest rates. A free market economy does not have booms and busts.
A free-market economy does have booms and busts, but they are much smaller than the monsters of the last 100 years.
These "booms and busts" are caused by imperfect information. However, there is nothing wrong with them, as they are a necessary element of solving the "price problem."
One-way price movement up or down responding to new information is not a boom or bust. It's a permanent adjustment. A boom or bust in the way we speak of it here is an unsustainable, artificial, temporary up or down in defiance of fundamentals in response to governmental manipulation of the economy.
A free market economy has just as many, if not more, booms and busts, some severe.
If you think that, then you have a lot of company with Keynesian mainstream economists who agree with you and use that as their basis to intervene in the economy. Fix the market because it's inherently broken. Presumably you must be very happy with the current state of affairs.
A free market is usually rife with Fraud. This is the whole reason that during the Free Banking Era that there were so many booms and busts. The point of regulatory capture was to reign in the "bad actors" but it back-fired and now the captured and "captives" are running the show with their own games of fraud and abuse.
It is a good point. Why bring on the pain now? If deflation and crash is inevitable why not prolong it as long as possible?
There will be a crash but no deflation. The only weapon left is helicopter money. You've seen apache gunship money, now get ready for Chinook money.
And if that doesn't work expect a C-130 Spectre gunship, howitzering greenbacks onto the populace with extreme prejudice.
They say that history is written by the winners and the "Lords of Finance" as you call them were clearly the Depression's winners. This makes me re-examine the whole Smoot-Hawley narrative, or at least question whether it is still valid in an obviously different era.
The "too big to fail" banks are on life support from the "too big to fail" US central bank or FED. I am fed up with the whole situation.
It might work out. Obviously ZIRP this long is intensive care for the economy. Who is to say this crazy plan can't work?
ZIRP is intensive care for the parasites which infect the economy.
Solution : nationalize the Fed.
Alternate, better solution.
Default now.
Say fuck you to everyone who has plundered America for the last 100 years and has the laundered T-bills to prove it.
Say hello to instant balanced budget.
Say goodbye to everyone who came to America for free shit.
Say we'll get through this together as the shattered families reunite in order to help everyone make it through the time of disruption and realization that the promises were never going to be honored anyhow.
that requires truth, honesty, and courage. three things you'll hear about politicians in the media, but never see manifested in the real world.
been numbered for a 100 years now
Finished is the best way to categorize our current plight. Got that Janet? You're finished and we're finished. We can hide. You cannot.
Neither of you can hide.
I like Dr. Paul and enjoy reading and listening to him, but of this I am convinced: The Liberty and Truth movement is in disparate need of a leader to carry the message from here out, and it will NOT be Dr.Paul. The movement needs someone with fire in their belly and who can reach young people in ways Dr. Paul failed to do. While he has the message, he lacks many important leadership qualities. He comes across as that soft grandpa that will let you get away with anything.
Ron Paul received a plurality of the youth vote and drew massive crowds on college campuses.

That's because he's for legalization of maryjane on a national scale
Actually, he says leave it up to the states.
And that would be a bad thing because?
Ron Paul has shown his true colors, He is now a pimp for an investment firm making commercials for them on TV.
He never called out the true problem with the fed. That it is privately owned and controlled for the profit of a select group of people. He did not use his position to broadcast loudly what tribe controlled the fed, the IRS, held dual citizenship with a certain country, kept getting appointed to key govt positions, etc..
Ron Paul never, at least to my knowledge, used his position to make his followers know that 911 was a staged event and defied engineering principles.
Ron Paul never called out his own son as a traitor to the people.
Audit the Fed? When things crumble more will demand it. After delays they will likely get it. And those who own the FED will see to it they control the audit throught their puppets.
He is right. Paul was and is a half measure.
Ron Paul is a distinguished Gentleman.....the type not welcomed in high power politics
Ron Paul should retire. He sounds like a broken record.
You should retire. No one of employment age even knows what a broken record is any more -- is any more -- is any more.
Much as I dislike him, Dan Rather tells an interesting story about his first job in radio at a religious station in small-town Texas.
At lunchtime, he would put on an LP from some famous pastor and then drive down the street to get a hamburger and make time with the waitress.
One day, while eating lunch, his boss, the station owner, drives up and says: "Son, have you been listening to my radio station?"
Right after Rather left for lunch the record skipped and kept broadcasting "Go to Hell ... Go to Hell... Go to Hell..."
It's very sad to think that an old ex-Congressman may be the last person in the government who actually read, much less understood, the Constitution.
Sadder still that he is pilloried as an unrealistic dreamer and a bit of a crackpot.
If there is one man in America whom I would risk empowering as a modern-day Cincinnatus, it would be him.
My thanks to you for what you have done, and what you have tried to do, Doctor Paul. May God run with you always.
You're a shill for the bankers, right? Because nobody else would suggest such a stupid idea. After all, it's also the bankster's fall-back position. Because if all we do is we do is move the central bank from pribate ownership to public, they will just buy control of it. Haven't you heard of regulatory capture?
There is only one way we can regain our freedom: End banker's games. That means no more money printing by anyone and no more fractional reserve lending. Period.
Ermm..... I don't think we will see the Fed' date is numbered. The shit will just keep going as human stupidiity is infinite. More likely the collapse will be triggered by a global war or hitting by asteroid.
