We have become slaves by another name. Where once people were slaves to priests in temples, we now are slaves to fiat bankers in fake temple looking buildings. They decide, as an unelected elite, their economy. You, me, we are faceless peons.

The Federal Reserve is going back to Jekyll Island to celebrate the 100 year anniversary of the infamous 1910 Jekyll Island meeting that spawned the draft legislation that would ultimately create the U.S. Federal Reserve
It was a system that was designed by the bankers and for the bankers. Now, the bureaucrats running the system are returning to Jekyll Island to congratulate themselves. Those attending the conference on November 5th and 6th include Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, former Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan, Goldman Sachs managing director E. Gerald Corrigan and the heads of the various regional Federal Reserve banks. You can view the entire agenda of the conference right here. It looks like that there will be plenty of hors d'oeuvres to go around, but should the Federal Reserve really be celebrating their accomplishments at a time when the U.S. economy is literally falling to pieces?

The arrogance is right up there with the other Marxists in the WH. Off the charts arrogant.
I wonder if the nation survives until 2013, the 100th anniversary of enactment.
The fix is in and now there are 12 families who are billionaires due to a fix Woody Wilson and the Progressives pushed across the finish line...a Central Bank.
We pay a private company to control our money.
It’s theft and treason. Kennedy spoke of this and Oswald or a NWO stooge killed him. ROn Paul cannot even get an up and down vote passed to AUDIT the Fed.
It’s a problem, but with billions, they kill any interlopers.
Among what must be larger issues for them is to discuss how they are to manage and gain the benefit as a private corporation in managing the entire population of the United States as handed to them by Congress’s creation of the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection. We are completely with the control and guidance and manipulation of the Federal Reserve, as we have been completely handed over to it for data collection, consumer management, IRS integration, and micro-insta-monitoring on demand. Both Sen Dingell and Sen Dodd have stated that the Bureau is for “control of the people”. Congress has effectively washed its hands of us.
The Bureau is also a Bureau for the application of globalist taxation purposes re world poverty, energy, wealth/social justice redistributions as the impetus develops. The taxes can be collected with your hardly knowing it due to the data collection and monitoring that will be enabled with direct access to the account by the IRS. Can’t you hardly wait!? While the current stated purposes of the Bureau may seem benign, it represents a framework of vast control potential over each one of us, and by a foreign, private corporation at that.
No Republican or Tea Party member is even mentioning the revocation of the creation of the Bureau within the control of the Federal Reserve at a time when the credibility of the Fed Reserve is at an all time low.
Being placed in a kind of receivership to a foreign corporation is some thing that people are not considering as an accomplished fact. No one is even thinking...DISENFRANCHISEMENT.
Show of hands —
How many of us, upon reading this, will go to bed tonight with visions of Daisy Cutters dancing in our heads??
“No Republican or Tea Party member is even mentioning the revocation of the creation of the Bureau within the control of the Federal Reserve at a time when the credibility of the Fed Reserve is at an all time low.”
I can’t speak for all tea party groups, obviously you can not either, but your statement is false. We formed a New American Minuteman group in FL and ending the fed and returning to the Constitution is one of our major tenants.
Yesterday, I sent letters to both my Senators and my representative and demanded whatever action they could take to stop this QE2 AND called for ending the FED. I also requested all Minutemen, 912 and Tea Party groups, blast their congressmen likewise.
What action did you take to end the FED?
It's no accident they were both created around the same time. The income tax collateralizes the Fed....by making the citizenry liable for the debt it incurs.
We should join them .... and push them into the ocean.
Not sure what you mean by disenfranchisement but the Southern National Congress, has called for secession if interposition or nullification are not effective in restoring States Rights. So far, there is not a governor or State legislature with the love for and understanding of the Constitution to act on the powers available to them. Makes me think they do not really want it fixed. Go to southernnationalcongress.com and watch the Southern Solution and read my article “Withdraw Consent.”
“disenfranchisement”...in the sense that no citizen has access to or recourse against the decisions of the Bureau in our management. There is no allowance of grievance, etc. The Bureau will decide what kind of financial products, mortgages we get, all the time offering us no privacy in our financial lives. Apparently, Congress has no authority over what the Bureau does or recommends to the Executive Branch. In financial matters, we are no longer represented or protected by the 3 branches of govt....we are to be managed simply by the Fed Reserve.
They have not done well in managing monetary policy and they will not do well controlling, managing us as indiviudals either.
Are we really individuals anymore? I think not. Under the Bureau of Consumer Financial “Protection”, we are a statistic.
We have become slaves by another name. Where once people were slaves to priests in temples, we now are slaves to fiat bankers in fake temple looking buildings. They decide, as an unelected elite, their economy. You, me, we are faceless peons.
Priests in temples?
Some additional info on the Bureau of COnsumer Financial Protection from the Senate Hearings as posted by Veon:

In addition, note Sen Dodds comments especially and also Sen Shelbys’:
“The Senate voted 59-39 on Thursday to pass the bill – the chief aim of which is to more-heavily regulate the financial industry – sending it to a conference committee in the House of Representatives, where differences between the House and Senate versions will be ironed out.
The bill, if it becomes law, will create the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection and empower it to “gather information and activities of persons operating in consumer financial markets,” including the names and addresses of account holders, ATM and other transaction records, and the amount of money kept in each customer’s account.
The new bureaucracy is then allowed to “use the data on branches and [individual and personal] deposit accounts … for any purpose” and may keep all records on file for at least three years and these can be made publicly available upon request.
Senator Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) said that Democrats who claim this new bureaucracy will protect consumers are misleading the public.
“[T]he American people are being misled,” Shelby said on the Senate floor on Thursday night. “The authors of this bill are telling them that this legislation has been drafted to address the recent financial crisis and that it will ‘tame’ Wall Street. I am afraid that they are going to be disappointed.”
Shelby slammed the new consumer bureaucracy, saying that it was meant not to protect consumers but to “manage” them by monitoring their behavior.
“Mr. President, make no mistake, behind the veil of anti-Wall Street rhetoric is an unrelenting desire to manage every facet of commerce under the guise of consumer protection.
“They may be interested in protecting consumers, but they are more interested in managing them,” Shelby said.
Shelby also criticized the idea that Americans need government to watch over their every financial move, saying that it was better to allow people the freedom to make their own choices and fail than to never allow them the freedom to choose at all.
“Mr. President, I have faith in the American people and their ability to make good choices,” said Shelby. “Granted, we do not always choose well. But I believe that a poor choice freely made is far superior to a good choice made for me.”

“I am afraid that the architects of this bill do not share this sentiment,” he said. “Nor do they share my faith in the American people.”
Shelby further said that the ability of the Federal Reserve to collect such detailed information about the most basic of financial transactions was the beginning of an effort by government to regulate every financial action of every American citizen.
“This new consumer bureaucracy is intended by its architects in the Treasury to begin the process of financial regulation with the intent of changing the behaviors of the American people,” said the senator.
Shelby appears to be correct. The bill allows the bureau to collect any and all information on any person operating in the financial markets.
As it reads: “[T]he Bureau shall have the authority to gather information from time to time regarding the organization, business conduct, markets, and activities of persons operating in consumer financial services markets.” (This includes credit card companies and persons using credit or ATM cards...you and me..every transaction can be reported to the IRS on request by the Consumer F. P. Agency, with its non-accountability to any US citizen, and its council of 10 making policies to control, monitor and alter the financial behavior of all citizens).
The Federal Reserve:
Give bankers control of the money printing press.
Make them accountable to no one.
What could go wrong.
The modern Muslim Caliphate is a clear example of this: the state exists only through the legitimacy of the state religion. The Mullahs of Iran rule directly, but even the House of Saud must claim the support of their priesthood.
We don’t need no stinkin Federal Reserve.
