Rand Paul The Answer

There are some people who are upset with Washington for the most recent budget bill that was passed. Those same people believe that the Democrats are the party of Wall Street and special interests, and that is partially true. Both parties have ties to Wall Street and to special interests groups. However, if you believe that Bernie Sanders is the solution to bringing about any change in the United States, you’re clearly mistaken. To understand why, you have to learn about why we’re in the mess we’re in the first place.
On Dec. 23, 1913, with the help of Democratic President Woodrow Wilson, the United States Federal Reserve was created. It is meant to be the money supply in the United States economy. The Federal Reserve took over the supply and creation of every dollar that is printed in the United States today. What is worse, is that Wilson promised to sign the bill, which was created in secret, with control of the banking industry. Ever since 1913, the purchasing value of the dollar has fallen by over 95 percent. The Federal Reserve is a secret bank which has no deposits, but only has loans that are generated by other banks, and backed by the infinite monetary creation of the Federal Reserve. Their records face no outside scrutiny, and their meetings, and their books are kept in secret, and they cannot be audited.
The problem lies within the Federal Reserve, and the person who has been leading the fight to challenge the monopoly of the Federal Reserve is Kentucky Senator Rand Paul. He has been leading a push to open up the secrecy of the Federal Reserve to face a full government audit. Along with Congressman Thomas Massie of Kentucky, the Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2015 (H.R. 24/S.264), will force the Federal Reserve to undergo a complete audit by the non-partisan, Comptroller General of the United States. Of course, the Federal Reserve is staunchly opposed to this bill. The question that I have is, why? If they truly are a federal agency, they should be forced to undergo the same scrutiny as the CIA or the NSA.
If you truly support Bernie Sanders, he’ll need the Federal Reserve to keep loaning the government money to help pay for his $18 trillion in new federal spending that he would like to enact. Bernie Sanders may have come out recently against the Fed, but who would give him the money he needs to pay for free stuff? He’ll need the bankers to give him the money, but the taxpayers will be needed to pay the loans back.
If you truly want to support someone who will stand up against Wall Street, and for the middle class, the only answer is Rand Paul.
