Do not shut down the Fed.

Just allow competition, as the cure for monopoly. Each State can make their own currency. Better yet, anybody can create their own currency. And Big Federal Govt shall make no law ...

Just allow competition, as the cure for monopoly.

As long as you have to pay your taxes in the currencies created (out of thin air) by the Federal Reserve, the owners of the Federal Reserve will profit and they will use those profits to purchase our representatives or get their own men elected and they will end up as the sole issuers of our currency once again. This is the third private bank our nation has had to suffer under. Lets stop this madness and return the issuance of currency to the Federal government where it rightfully belongs (per T.Jeff and the US Constitution.)

Don't get me wrong, I know the Federal government will screw things up and drive us into hyper-inflation or sell the right to issue currency to private banks again, but at least we will know that we've done it to ourselves (again) and there is some chance that we will learn from the mistake. Right now, not one person in ten even knows that the Federal Reserve is not a federal entity and that private individuals are benefiting from the interest attached to every dollar they create out of thin air.
