The central bank says all loans made during that time have been repaid with interest

And every President since has refused to eliminate the Fed.

“So they repaid the loans, with interest, and got back their worthless collateral.”

I will ask for the last time ... where is a link that says they got back “worthless collateral’?

It is interesting to me that the Federal Reserve Act was the beginning of farmers sucking on the government teat. Even cow-state Messiah William Jennings Bryan went along with it, despite his self-proclaimed hate of bankers and Wall Street.

The FED is the heroin dealer, they gave this country the heroin, and they keep them supplied. Is it any wonder they are hooked after 98 years? Really?

You think the bank, any bank, keeps your collateral after you repay the loan?

Okay, they gave the Fed collateral, paid back the loan and the Fed kept the collateral. Now what?

HA, silly Toady sitting in his puddle of water.

I don’t expect YOU to believe me.

But there are PLENTY of Freepers who can think for themselves.

The FED is losing credibility, Toady.
It will crack someday.

The point is, you are making statements and assumptions without or using limited supporting and linked data. Therefore, your posts amount to disinformation.

"You need to see the link at post #156. It WAS worthless.'

I saw the link. The article is wrong to claim that defaulted bonds are worthless, those bonds were backed by both collateral and by the borrower's credit. Defaulted simply means they were late on a payment, but far from worthless.

Are you assuming a bank keeps collateral after the loan is repaid?

From what I remember about the First Great Depression, the farmers were in the mist of the industrial revolution. They started to grow more crops because of the invention of the car. They used their pastures for the horses to grow more food. That is why the food prices fell so hard. Everyone adapted to this by growing more food.

More Socialism, less freedom, for all of us.

Those Fascist Commie lovers have laid a great foundation for the communisation of the US.

I haven’t assumed a dang thing ... but you have.

I have asked you for links ... but you haven’t.

Support your assumptions and/or conclusions.

You're right, I assume that when you repay a loan, the bank releases your collateral.

If you deal with a bank that keeps your collateral after you repay the loan, I suggest you find a new bank.

Well, you know what? I have been doing research a helluva long time ... and there is only one conclusion I have drawn. Don’t assume a thing. Never.
