According to the Constitution, Congress is supposed to be in charge of the monetary system, not some bank that they set up because they didn’t want to be bothered.
You mean Romney? You’re right, calling a dressage horse a $77,000 business expense is world-class tax cheating. I can’t write off my dog. I should declare it a corporation. Is that how it’s done? Maybe if Romney promised to close some of the unfair loopholes that he uses as a matter of course, he’d get a little respect, but he crows about them and calls us suckers for not being rich enough to game the system like he does. Who knew that the “foreigner” running for president is actually the Republican (based on what he said about his Cayman Island accounts)?
Except that it is actually true. The Fed only has certain strategies available. And it has even fewer when a party as the GOP continues to pursue every tool at its disposal to tank the economy.
Is there no one who will step up and protect the average guy on main street? The radical rich have built a shield around themselves — first of lobbiests, then of congress. “We the people” live here, but we don’t own the country, or run it.
“SEND IN THE TAX CHEAT!”Yes, yes. We get that you want to send Romney in. You’ve already stated many, many times you intend to vote for him. Give it a rest already.

Actually it’s been Congress doing the fiddling instead of legislating.

I’ve said it before — it seems as if the same mistakes made 100 years ago are being made all over again./
False prosperity, Immigrant resentment, Banking and Industrial greed coming through now. Next, mad-dog nationalism, war, temporary propsperity. Then, Depression and another, worse war./
As always, politicians will fail to act, except in their own interests.

Actually, Greenspan dropped the lighter in the trash can, but they KEPT HIM ON! Even HE admitted he was wrong, but only after he left.

Your blind, uninformed, ignorant ways are the blinders you wear. You’re just a complaining parrot with no idea what’s going on.

What?!?!But everybody knows that in a depressed economy the only profitable investment is Porn. (paraphrased from ‘Avenue Q’. )
