Ordered.
In an attempt to quench my thirst for knowledge on the gold standard and opposition to an independent Federal Reserve, I have (on the advice of a certain New Yorker by way of Massachusetts) ordered a copy of Mr. Ron Paul’s “End the Fed.” I know there must be some reason that such a vocal minority clamors for a return to the gold standard and, in the same breath, an end to the Federal Reserve system. Yet, for all my questioning, I have yet to receive even a sophomoric answer other than “gold is independent and stable.” Of course, neither of these statements is true.
I have been inquiring for months about the vitriolic hatred for an independent Federal Reserve and the nostalgic waxing of the same persons for a return to the gold standard. I have no real position on the subject yet other than a gut reaction to endorse an independent Fed over the congressional meddling many (led by Mr. Paul) have called for. Therefore, as soon as I have received and read the book, I will post my reaction to it. In the meantime, if someone has a thought, I am more than interested to read it.
