Well isn't this cute?

Just days after the Federal Reserve will announce it has launched QE2, the Fed will hold a major conference at Jekyll Island.

The island is off the coast of the U.S. state of Georgia.

In November 1910, Senator Nelson W. Aldrich and Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Department A.P. Andrews, and other top financiers,arrived at the Jekyll Island Club to discuss monetary policy and the banking system. The secret meetings led to the creation of the Federal Reserve.

Show me where in the constitution is the authorization for any of the “fed’s” recent actions or for any such organization to “control” the economy?

They sell them directly from the publisher’s web site, too.

I know it’ll probably never happen, but we need to hammer this over and over to the new republicans in Congress.

Audit the Federal Reserve and bring transparency policy to the floor.

These people should never keep information from the citizens.

I watched parts of congressional hearings with Ben B. of the FR, he just refused to answer questions over and over.

Great Idea, maybe the NEW Red Blooded Americans will do something about this mess.

It's interesting how many forget that the Fed is right out of Marx's Manifesto:

"The proletariat will use its political supremacy to wrest, by degree, all capital from the bourgeoisie, to centralize all instruments of production in the hands of the state, i.e., of the proletariat organized as the ruling class; and to increase the total productive forces as rapidly as possible.

Of course, in the beginning, this cannot be effected except by means of despotic inroads on the rights of property, and on the conditions of bourgeois production; by means of measures, therefore, which appear economically insufficient and untenable, but which, in the course of the movement, outstrip themselves, necessitate further inroads upon the old social order, and are unavoidable as a means of entirely revolutionizing the mode of production. ... "

Measure No 5 of 10 to achieve the above in advanced nations =
"5. Centralization of credit in the banks of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly."

Manifesto of the Communist Party by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels

End the fed and get these sleazy parasites out of America before they destroy the country.The founders warned us didn’t they and Andrew Jackson took them to the cleaners and paid off the debt.These people are more dangerous than the devil.

This is the most important book on The Fed I’ve ever read and that was 10 years ago. Nobody listens, no one wants to think that hard and I’ve given them away as Christmas presents too. I’ll probably give them away this year too.

[bayouranger]

I wonder if Jim Jones is going to be their guest speaker?

May I suggest they enjoy the kool-aid?

I’ll fix it for them if they need a waiter. I’ve plenty of references should they need them.

It just takes me back when most Americans don't even question this secrecy.

The Federal Reserve isn't even a government agency, it is comprised of a cartel of bankers that control the monetary policy of our nation.

How the hell did that happen.

That truly is the wolf watchin over the hen house.

Then to be so arrogant as to refuse to answer questions or thwart an audit for years.

hmmmmm. Someone needs to look into these guys.
