Sen. Ted Cruz said Wednesday night he has “deep concerns” about the Federal Reserve and it should be audited.
“I think the Fed should get out of the business of trying to juice our economy, and simply be focused on sound money and monetary stability, ideally tied to gold,” he said during the Republican presidential debate. Instead we spend out future into oblivion.
“Ideally” is a long way from demanding it. And “ideally” we should be on the gold standard where you can’t just print more money and force actual budgets with tough choices to be made.
