Why audit the Fed when we know the system of usury it runs,
cyclically brings chaos and massive wealth disparities?

In other words, just end it already.  'Member the Fed!

  
  Calling Things By Their Real Names

    One does not need money to convey one's thoughts, but what money
    does allow is the drowning out of speech of those without money
    by those with a lot of money.

    In last week's explanation of why the Federal Reserve is evil,
      https://www.oftwominds.com/blogjan20/fed-evil1-20.html
    I invoked the principle of calling things by their real names,
    a concept that drew an insightful commentary from longtime
    correspondent Chad D.:

      Thank you, Charles, for calling out the Fed for their evil
      ways.  We have to properly name things before we can properly
      address them.  I would add that the Fed's endless creation of
      "money" to hand out to connected bankers (not all bankers) is
      just one facet of the evil.  The evil also manifests itself as
      extraordinary political-economical power in a system that
      allows legalized bribery disguised as free speech.

      One does not need money to speak/write to convey one's
      thoughts, but what money does allow is the drowning out of
      speech of those without money by those with a lot of money. In
      essence, the ultra-rich (i.e. the top .01%) get a huge
      megaphone to blare their thoughts, many of which are
      deliberately used to disorient and confuse the common man
      through the major media and so-called higher institutions of
      learning. Hence, we get common folk actively fighting for
      policies and laws that are against their own personal
      interests, such as promoting "free trade" agreements that are
      really managed trade agreements, whereby domestic workers are
      forced to complete with workers in other countries who make a
      pittance and are not protected by labor or environmental laws.

      These agreements are part of a legal, yet unjust, framework
      that gives unfair, competitive advantages to large,
      multinational businesses at the expense of their smaller
      domestic and international competitors, which includes the
      abridgment of basic rights to settle disputes in a real court
      of law, not some kangaroo arbitration process with biased
      "judges".

      And we must not forget the bailouts, lack of prosecution for
      economic crimes, such as fraud and monopolistic and deceptive
      trade practices, and tax loopholes, all of which are bought in
      one way or another from the compromised "representatives" and
      "public servants" within the system.

      The evil manifests itself as an enabler and promoter of an
      endless warfare state that is used to maintain an empire based
      upon the dollar that uses force, bribery, and blackmail to keep
      various peoples within the empire in line, which includes those
      within the host country(ies) (i.e. the USA (and the UK)) at the
      center of the empire. It causes the host country to befriend
      countries (i.e.  frenemies) that hold values that are
      diametrically opposed to the values of the host country. The
      empire's tactics also breeds resentment towards citizens of the
      host country, many of whom want nothing to do with the empire,
      by those who live in the empire outside the host country.

      While massive resources are used to support the empire of the
      dollar, the host country rots from a lack of resources due to
      taxes, debt, and the misappropriation of resources. Numerous
      people enlist in the military to supposedly protect the
      country, but end up really protecting the empire and yet others
      enlist out of economic desperation, which ironically and
      perversely, is largely caused by the existence of the very
      thing they end up serving and protecting.

      Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, the evil manifests itself
      in the severe abuse of our natural resources that leads to (as
      you've put) a landfill economy and the resultant, potential
      collapse of the biosphere that currently supports human life.

      All these things represent the three heads of Cerberus and the
      body of Cerberus is usury, one of the most destructive forces
      known to humanity. Its exponential growth function will always
      lead to the depletion of natural resources because all the
      resources that would be of use to humans do not grow in that
      same manner and many of them are finite in the sense of people
      being able to obtain them in an economical way (e.g. metal ores
      and energy). Other natural resources like fisheries and forests
      can only be harvested at certain levels at certain times or
      they will collapse to a nonviable state.

      Usury also always leads to massive wealth disparities that
      destabilize societies. Over time, the interest on the
      outstanding debt, especially if the money is debt-based, will
      find its way to those with assets, who end up buying more
      assets that get them more interest that enables them to buy yet
      more assets, etc.

      If the Federal Reserve System was simply a decentralized
      clearing house for financial transactions and it was not
      allowed to buy government debt and we had a currency that was
      not based upon usury, would it be evil? It's fair to say that
      the Fed has become more and more evil, because it had
      fundamental flaws (features?) from its inception or it has been
      changed by evil actors over the years.  Either way, we must end
      its current incarnation, before it leads our country down the
      road to perdition.

      P.S. We were warned of some of this evil by our forefathers;
      see the Democratic Platform from 1900. Please note how they
      referred to our country as a republic.

    Thank you, Chad, for succinctly summarizing all that we must call
    by their real names: predatory, parasitic, false, evil.
