United States House of Representatives, Committee on Financial Services, Subcommittee on Domestic Monetary Policy & Technology, May 8, 2012
(Infowars) – Although it has taken nearly a century, it seems that the entire spectrum of the American political establishment has finally realized the destructive power of the Federal Reserve System. Whether left, right, or libertarian, politicians are lining up to attack Ben Bernanke and the Fed’s destructive monetary policy. Where there is disagreement or lack of understanding, however, is on why the Fed’s monetary policy is destructive, how it harms the economy, and what should be done about it.

(DailyBell) - Money Bawl … Monetary expansion is also, for Paul, a key enabler of what he takes to be our imperialist foreign policy: The creation of money out of thin air allows the government to finance wars, as well as the welfare state. Central banking is a form of central planning, on his theory, and as such “incompatible” with freedom. Paul allows that “not every supporter of the Fed is somehow a participant in a conspiracy to control the world.” Read the rest of this entry »
(IntelHub) – Caroline Salas Gage, of Bloomberg, writes a very misleading article on the Fed, in which she claims that Bernanke’s Fed has somehow proved the critics wrong. “The numbers are proving Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke’s critics wrong.”
This assertion can be easily debunked. It also distracts the reader from the greater vulnerabilities within our fractional reserve banking system. No where in her article does she mention that the “Federal Reserve” is as “Federal” as the “Federal Express”. Read the rest of this entry »
(NomiPrins) – In the wake of chopping its Central Bank swap rates today, the Fed has been called a bunch of names: a hero for slugging the big bailout bat in the ninth inning, and a villain for printing money to help Europe at the expense of the US.

(Excavator) – The source of America’s political, economic and foreign policy crises is its print and television media. This is not news to anyone, but it is a truth that needs to be repeated again and again.
America has an anti-American media. It is anti-peace, anti-rule of law, anti-truth, and anti-freedom. It takes orders from the globalist-led CIA, the cold-blooded technocrats at the foreign-controlled CFR and other global policy think tanks, and the financial parasites who work at the privately owned Federal Reserve.

Stephen and Tabitha King released the following statement to the Occupy Bangor Media Working Group:
“It’s time for the wealthy to pay their fair share before the middle class becomes the forgotten class. And it’s time for the banks to give back what they were given. There are those in politics, particularly those on the conservative side, who can’t get enough of telling people that the wealthy one per cent must not be taxed because doing so kills jobs. The real job-killers are corporate greed and political expediency. It’s time for working people in Maine and all across the country to take back the American dream.” – Source: Occupy Bangor

(CNN) – Video: Bernanke says Occupy Wall Street misunderstands Fed
America’s top central banker “sympathizes” with the Occupy Wall Street protesters and thinks many of their frustrations with the sluggish economy are “understandable.”
But there’s one complaint Ben Bernanke does take issue with: the backlash against the Federal Reserve.
“I think that the concerns about the Fed are based on misconceptions,” he said at his news conference Wednesday.
The Occupy Wall Street protests, which started in New York in September and have since spread around the world, are known for their ever-evolving and diverse list of grievances. Among them are the common themes of distaste for the banking system and frustration with government. Full article here
