Wonderful comments!

It’s hard to believe the Fed thought this was a good idea. Outreach? Really?

I hope trump picks up the baton.

:-)

This is precisely the reason why the internet is being passed off to another entity.

They want it to be managed so this sort of thing will never happen again.

Good-bye free speech. Nice knowing you while it lasted.

Talking about “clean up” at the FED.

How about “We’re FED UP WITH THE FED”?

Oh I’m sure the feds fully intended to get trolled.

That website right there is an information gathering tool.

I see some IRS audits in the future of some folks at the very least, or maybe being put on a “no-fly” list or terrorist watch list.

I was just booted off of facebook for refusal to give them a government picture ID. They didn’t like the notion apparently that I had no personal information given, I was logged into as a nickname I’ve had since boot-camp in 65’, have no cookies enabled, and use a tor proxy service.

I won’t feed the feds any information about my opinions on their crooked corrupt bureaucracy.

One thing I learned from “anonymous”, if they don’t know who you are exactly, they can’t exert control over you.

(my twitter was also suspended early last week as well)

I’ve always thought he was put on the 20 for spite by the banking industry for his loathing and actions to tame them. Now I’m all for him staying on it because libtards want him off...

Since 1913, when the Fed took control of the American currency, the dollar has lost 96% of its value. That is an inflation rate of 2300%

Heckuva job there, Feddie!

Harriet Ugly Tubman on to replace him.

No need to disrespect Harriet Tubman to make a valid point. She risked everything for a worthy cause. Others have since perverted that cause, but that's on them.
