Action Plan: Infiltrate the Federal Reserve...eh?? EH??

[socialize_me]

Not bad. I think it's a great idea. We get pseudo-Keynesians hired and then WHAM! We open a can of hard money Austrian business cycle theory whoop ass on 'em.

Forget about taking back the White House, Capitol Hill, or waiting generations until a Supreme Court Justice retires. Let's monopolize the monopoly and then we control the world. BWHAHAHAHAHA

Joe the Plumber for Fed Chairman?

Um, that's basically what Alan Greenspan did... did it help? No. It turned him into a Chicago school fanboy.

Didn't Ron Paul ask Greenspan if "he still believed what he wrote" (Greenspan's masterpiece essay "Gold and Economic Freedom (http://www.lewrockwell.com/north/north204.html)" in 1967)?

If I recall, Greenspan said, "Yes. I wouldn't change a word."

WTF happened to him? Lust? Greed? Narcissism? Ego? All of the above?

Maybe Greenspan went into the Fed thinking that he could operate it akin to the Gold Standard. Actually in one interview, he stated something along the line of, "Central banks act with the prudence of a Gold Standard" - which we all clearly know to be a sack of lies. Besides, if they DID INDEED operate like a Gold Standard, then they should have no problem re-instating it. Right? Right?

He is a smart man, I would never minimize that. So if he wasn't dumb, what was he? I think the man is an egoist wrapped up in his own vanity, with a touch of psychopath in him - as are ALL politicians.

The Chicago school is much closer to the Austrian school than you think....he doesn't follow the Chicago school. He's definitely more of a Keynesian.

I have a plan at the Federal Reserve that is foolproof.

All you need is the person who destroys the money to work with a janitor and a gal who moves the big bins of cash.

This plan only works if you have three women so that one of them can distract the guard who watches the money being destroyed while the key to the lock is duplicated, and then the person moving the money unlocks the bin and puts the money into the trash and then the janitor grabs that trash bag and grabs the loot.

It's foolproof. Plus hilarity will ensue.

Oh ya, and I forgot to mention that one of those women has to be Queen Latifa(sp?).

If you came up with some bacteria that could melt money, it would be wiped out in one day :eek:
Maybe this would be a good movie plot?

I think we should find ways to hit the Fed in the spirit of Ghandi. In other words, we need to become a headache for the Fed by blocking their vehicles (laying on the road so no one can get in), preventing paper rolls from getting to the treasury so they can't print more money, etc... Try to find out what the logistics of the Fed is, find the weak points and become a major pain to them. Deflate their tires. Pour sugar into their gas tanks. Put crazy glue around their doors so they can't open them. Throw up quick-dry cement barriers in front of their loading bays. In general, throw the mother of all pranks on them and be a mountain-sized nuisance to them. It would be awesome to bring them to a grinding halt and think of the news it would create. We could start a rebellion against them.

[BeFranklin]

If the Federal Reserve isn't part of the governmnet as they claim, I don't see how even talking about this could be viewed as rebellion. Its a private business.

However, I think its about to collapse on its own face without anyone needing to do anything.

[bbagnall]

This is a little old, but I think you probably have realized by now that the Federal Reserve gets all its monopoly powers granted by the Federal government. Rebelling against a pure private institution like Apple or Microsoft would be a mistake of course, but it's fair game to rebel against the Fed.
