In 1913, Congress gave the Federal Reserve Bank a 100-year charter with a mandate to keep prices low and employment high. Hmm? Reality check!
The economy is anemic and in the 100 years since Congress chartered the Federal Reserve Bank, we’ve been through way too many booms and busts as the value of the dollar shrunk by 97%.
Central banking is a bad way for our country to manage money and flat currency is a huge threat to better government. It’s the credit card our elected representatives use whenever it suits their political needs – which keeps the establishment locked and alternatives locked out.
So, let me ask you a question. If you personally hired them to manage your money and they came knocking at your door 100 years later with a $16 trillion debt plus high unemployment in tow asking for a second shot, would you hire them back? Personally, I think not!
This is a question more and more people are asking with many answering with a resounding NO! And given the fact that the 100-year charter comes up for renewal in 2013, a growing number of people are coming together to say enough is enough! End the Fed!
This is exactly what happened on Nov. 24 when a group of committed, dedicated and hard- working everyday folks and activists came together at the Arkansas “End the Fed” rally.
One of these activists was our very own Christina Tobin, the founder of Free & Equal Elections. Thanks to “End the Fed Arkansas,” we have her keynote speech on video to share with you here. It’s a great speech and one that is well-worth taking the time for you to watch, listen and learn.
I encourage you to watch it to the end or else you’ll miss Christina announcing the cutting-edge and exciting initiatives Free & Equal has planned, moving forward to help make elections even more free and equal for all in the next election cycle.
