The Federal Reserve System at it’s core was a communist takeover of the wages, time and life force of the citizens of the United States of America. It was founded by bankers to enable the printing and hence debasement of the US Dollar which is a silent tax / theft from Americans to fund the forever wars and profiteering of the military-industrial complex. You may ask, replace the Fed with what? The same thing you’d replace a cancer with after removal: nothing. A hard money standard like gold or bitcoin (or a mix) is all that is needed and will take care of everything with no management needed. The Fed provides nothing of value. Despite it’s 2,000 PHDs paid $billions per year, they manage to be wrong 100% of the time. The problems they “fix” today (which they created), are the new problems of tomorrow they’ll need to “fix” as well. Everything would be better without their existence. Without the ability to debase money, the Fed will be unable to fund massive deficits. And, without massive deficit spending, the military adventurism with unlimited profits by killing foreigners comes to a swift end, and peace will finally have an opportunity to prevail. Join me!
The Federal Reserve has undermined the value of our currency, fueled economic instability, and enabled out-of-control government spending. Since its creation in 1913, the Fed has manipulated interest rates, caused boom-bust cycles, and devalued the dollar, robbing Americans of their purchasing power. By printing money out of thin air, the Fed fosters inflation and wealth inequality, benefiting the politically connected at the expense of the middle class.
Ending the Federal Reserve and returning to a sound monetary policy—such as a gold or commodity-backed currency—would restore fiscal discipline, protect savings, and promote long-term economic stability. Real money should be backed by real value, not the whims of bureaucrats. Only by returning to a free market in money can we preserve liberty, prosperity, and the future of our republic.
It is extremely imperative that this mandate emphasize the “replace it with nothing” point. There is a global movement toward the concept of central bank digital currencies (CBDC’s) which would arguably be far worse than the Federal Reserve in its current state.
For more information, I’d point people to a recent conversation between two libertarian authors, Tom Woods & Tom Luongo, “The Bankers Are Divided, and What That Means for You”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yKq83BjvJg
This is speaking my language. I’ve been thinking we need to organize a National end the fed day where we get people around the US to protest the Fed to start bringing awareness. If people protested the fed as hard as they protest war then we may actually start to get somewhere considering war money is just money “created” by the fed that we pay in our tax dollars, disgusting. Would love to connect with others on how we can push this forward and start bringing awareness around this topic.
