One of the many Rothschild estates:
What is important is the stability of the dollar year to year. And the FED has excelled at maintaining that stability.
Swings of 20% deflation in a year like we had during the gold standard causes depressions. Why invest anything if you can just hold cash and increase your purchasing power due to deflation.
Keep the FED. fire the rest.
And no the Rothchildes don't own the FED. That is easily debunked.
Looks really stable before 1913.
In the interest of accuracy, the photo you posted depicts the village of Azenhas do Mar, Portugal. One of the homes pictured therein may be a Rothschild estate; but, everything that is in that photo is not a single estate belonging to the Rothchild family or anyone else.
