Fed's Hoenig: Big Banks Are Govt Run // Fed gives $220m to Wall Street WIVES
http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/04/1...6220110412

* Banks receive gov't aid, should be classified that way

* Hoenig says banks should be restricted in their business

* Fed president Hoenig says Basel III rules not enough (Adds Bank of America CEO comment)

Why is the Federal Reserve forking over $220 million in bailout money to the wives of two Morgan Stanley bigwigs?






So, what do you think of The Fed, Romney? Oh ... that's right ... you don't much care. I'm sure Herman Cain would largely agree. Why Audit the Fed??

The fed not only needs auditing , it needs to be replaced by something that serves the We the People, Not the worlds bankers. The Fed is a monstrous Scam to enslave Americans.

I will not vote for anyone who ran in 2008. The people have already spoken (rejected) on most of them.

I think the #1 issue is the repeal of Obamacare. What's Paul's position on that.

You kidding? Paul wouldn't just repeal ObamaCare, he'd repeal the perverse system of taxes that encouraged employer based insurance in the first place. Let individuals collectively bargain across state lines just like any company would. Power to the consumer, not the person with the best tax loophole or most donations to Obama.

Is there anybody in charge, or anywhere close to being in charge, who has any sense at all?
