The Fed is not always wrong.

But its central premise, its operating system if you will, IS wrong and will bring us down - eventually.

That central premise is that debt can function as money - true, in part - AND THAT DEBT CAN BE EXPONENTIALLY EXPANDED, AND SERVE AS AN ASSET TO ITS ISSUERS.

We see now the storm on the horizon. Still tiny, but inevitable.

Actually, the Fed's central premise is the constitutional (Art. I, Sect. 8)  requirement to fulfill congress' obligation to "...coin Money, regulate the Value thereof... " and the thing about money being created by banks loaning money is something banks have been doing for hundreds if not thousands of years.  It's what money is.
