Maybe the people who enacted the legislation
were the same people who neglected to draft
a Constitutional Amendment that
would have made it acceptable to delegate
the power to create money to a private business.

Is this the counterfeiting thread?
What are you talking about?

I'm talking about corruption.
That's what this thread is about.

I'm using the example of a violation of our Constitution.
Article 1, Section 8, Clause 5 gives Congress the power to coin money.
The Federal Reserve Act gave that power to a private company.

An "Act" is not the same as an "Amendment."
Congress cannot delegate the power to coin money
to someone else without an Amendment
that allows the transfer of the power to coin money.

The Federal Reserve Act was, and is, un-Constitutional.

hi exodus
I think slick willy was a criminal
I think President Bush is a kind decent person who is making a mistake
(by not bringing the clinton corruption to Law)
those are not the same thing

Article 1 ... gives Congress the power to coin money. The Federal Reserve Act gave that power to a private company.

Gowannnnnnn. Which private company? You mean they've gone and sold off the U.S. Mints?

Are we talking about the U.S. Constitution? Should we notify Chairman Greenspan?
