No matter what you may think of Mullins, this book stands as the authoritative groundbreaking expose' of the FED.

-Caveat Lector- Worldnetdaily are pushing a lengthy investigative piece in their magazine. Info below. Gavin. http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=22016 Coup d'état in 1913 © 2001 WorldNetDaily.com Few Americans realize how radically America was changed in 1913 with the passage of the Federal Reserve Act. Maybe most Americans don't even care. "How does the Federal Reserve Board affect my life?" they think. "What do I know from Alan Greenspan? He's the guy who decides what interest rates are, right?" The truth is the Federal Reserve, created in 1913, is a wholly unaccountable, private institution that affects the lives of every American -- probably more directly and profoundly than does the president of the United States. That's why Greenspan is often referred to as the most powerful man in America. The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 was an attempt to take advantage of popular opinion in the United States for banking reforms. In effect, however, it was not reform at all. It was a power transfer -- a coup in which a small group of bankers got a blank check to set monetary policy, and, thus, all policy, for the entire nation. No watchdogs. No guardrails. No accountability. Nada. Zip. Zilch. Perhaps Rep. Charles A. Lindberg Sr. said it best at the time: "It is common practice of congressmen to make the title of acts promise a right, but in the body or text of the acts to rob the people of what is promised in the title." The very name "Federal Reserve Bank" was designed to deceive. It is not federal. It is not a government agency. It is privately owned. In short, it is nothing more than a group of private banks charging interest on money that never actually existed. "Oh, Farah," you're probably saying right now. "Whoa, fella. This is too much for me to absorb. Are you sure about this? This sounds like conspiracy stuff? Why isn't anyone talking about something so amazing?" Well, the good news is that WorldNetDaily.com is about to launch a major salvo to wake up Americans about who really owns their country -- or, at least, who acts like they own it. In the current issue of WorldNet magazine, being mailed to subscribers this week, an expert on the subject of the Fed and a top-notch journalist, Anne Williamson, will break the bad news in clear, understandable, accessible terms that even your child in high school will be able to comprehend. Williamson has written for the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, Spy magazine, Film Comment and Premiere. An expert on Soviet-Russian affairs, she is currently working on a book, "Contagion: The Betrayal of Liberty; Russia and the United States in the 1990s." She has so much expertise on Russia, the Fed and the International Monetary Fund that she has been asked to testify to Congress, so that those ladies and gentlemen can get a better understanding of the institutions Williamson has covered most of her adult life. Her exhaustive report in WorldNet will be promoted in TV and radio appearances this week. Don't miss them. And don't miss her report in the magazine. If you are not yet subscribing, order it right now. This may be America's last best chance to learn who is pulling our strings. In a nutshell, here's how this Fed scheme works, ladies and gentlemen. Are you sitting down? Are you ready for this? The government prints $100 billion in interest-bearing U.S. bonds and takes them to the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve places the $100 billion in a checking account and the government writes checks against the balance. In other words, we -- the American people -- allow this private banking system to create money out of thin air. And the bankers get interest on it -- forever. It's a legalized counterfeiting operation -- pure and simple. Way back in 1931, Louis T. McFadden, chairman of the House Banking and Currency Committee, saw the problem: "The Federal Reserve Board and banks are the duly appointed agents of the foreign central banks of issue and they are more concerned with their foreign customer than they are with the people of the United States. The only thing that is American about the Federal Reserve Board and banks is the money they use." "Mr. Chairman," he pleaded on the House floor a year later, "we have in this country one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Banks. Some people think that the Federal Reserve Banks are United States government institutions. They are not government institutions. They are private credit monopolies which prey upon the people of the United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers; and rich and predatory money lenders.

Re: [CTRL] Anyone Have Any Articles on the Federal Reserve?
-Caveat Lector- ~~for educational purposes only~~ [Title 17 U.S.C. section 107] Does the Fed Fight Inflation? by Frank Shostak The Federal Open Market Committee, the executive arm of the US central bank, has voted to raise the federal funds rate and the discount rate by 0.5%, to 6.5% and 6% respectively. In its press release, the Federal Reserve said, Increases in demand have remained in excess of even the rapid pace of productivity-driven gains in potential supply, exerting continued pressure on resources. The Committee is concerned that this disparity in the growth of demand and potential supply will continue, which could foster inflationary imbalances that would undermine the economy's outstanding performance It would seem that the action taken by the central bank is aimed at countering the possible increase in the rate of inflation. Indeed most experts are of the view that the Fed has been too soft on inflation for too long; by raising interest rates by 0.5%, it has displayed strong leadership and determination to eradicate the inflationary menace. In response to the Fed's tighter stance, stock prices rose on investor optimism that the US central bank action will keep consumer prices in check. So it would appear that general rise in prices, labelled as inflation, is caused by an economic overheating i.e. demand exceeds supply. But how is it possible for economic activity to 'overheat'? In a market economy an individual exchanges by means of money goods that he produces for goods and services produced by other individuals. In short he exchanges goods that he produced for money and then exchanges money for goods and services he wants to have. Before an individual can exercise his demand for goods and services he must produce goods and services that can be exchanged for money. This in turn implies that production must precede consumption. So long as every increase in consumption is supported by production, no overheating, so to speak, can occur. The overheating emerges once there is an attempt to raise consumption without the backup from production. 'Overheating' requires the emergence of an exchange where individuals exchange nothing for money and then exchange money for goods and services. This can only occur when the money supply is expanding. The increase in the money stock means that the newly printed money wasn't earned; it originated out of the 'blue'. Once demand for goods and services, which is not supported by production arises, overheating will occur, which will take the form of a general rise in prices, labelled as inflation. Since growing money stock is the ultimate source of overheating why is the Fed regarded as an inflation fighter? It is the central bank together with the fractional reserve banking system that makes the increase in the stock of money possible? The reason why the Fed can masquerade as an inflation fighter stems from a misleading definition of what inflation really is. According to Mises, What many people today call inflation or deflation is no longer the great increase or decline in the supply of money, but its inexorable consequences, the general tendency toward a rise or fall in commodity prices and wage rates. In short according to Mises inflation is not general rise in prices, it is simply an increase in the money stock. Why is this important? Once inflation is defined as a general rise in prices, then anything, which contributes to price rises, is called inflationary and therefore must be guarded against. Not only has the central bank in this framework nothing to do with inflation, but on the contrary the bank is regarded as an inflation fighter. A fall in unemployment or a rise in economic activity are all seen as potential inflationary triggers and therefore must be restrained by the central bank's policies. Some other triggers like rises in commodity prices or workers wages are also regarded as potential threats and therefore must be always under the watchful eye of the central bank. This way of thinking views the economy as an unstable entity, which is prone to self-inflicting damages and therefore must be under the constant supervision of the central bank. Accordingly, individuals are depicted as automatons that are driven by mysterious destabilising psychological factors. However, regardless of psychological factors individuals actions are always conscious and purposeful. This in turn means that by striving to attain ends or goals individuals activities cannot be destabilizing but quite the opposite. What disrupts this process is the existence of the central bank and the fractional reserve banking system, which permits the expansion of the money stock. It is the expansion of the money stock that gives rise to consumption that is not backed up by production and hence to economic overheating. In other words it is not overheating that causes inflation, but rather it is inflation

-Caveat Lector- ~~for educational purposes only~~ [Title 17 U.S.C. section 107] Economic Woes and the Federal Reserve Ron Paul Last week was tumultuous for worldwide stock markets, some of which ended the week at their lowest levels in years. Our own Dow-Jones and NASDAQ market indices both suffered heavy losses, while the Japanese Nikkei index fell to its lowest level since 1985! Nervous investors scrambled to sell even blue-chip holdings, especially after news that projected 2001 earnings would be lower than expected for many companies. The market downturn is not surprising. An economic slowdown began in 2000, accelerating in the last quarter of the year. All indications suggest the U.S. economy is headed for a further slowdown in economic growth, if not an outright recession. Already we have seen thousands of job cuts, and not only in the market-sensitive high tech sector. Economic output, as measured by the gross domestic product, dropped every quarter in 2000. Amazingly, some in Washington and the popular media want to blame President Bush and his administration for our current economic predicament. Never mind that growth began slowing fully one year before he took office. Apparently, certain politicians believe that the President is causing a recession merely by talking about the economic data. One prominent Congressman fretted that "we've been talking ourselves into this. Now it's happening." In other words, Mr. Bush is "talking down the economy," making a recession more likely simply by discussing reality. Such thinking should be dismissed as absurd. Economic recessions are not the result of a gloomy national state of mind; if so, we could create economic prosperity simply by positive thinking. Yet basic education in economics is so badly lacking in America that many will accept this preposterous idea. The same ignorance of economic principles is behind the fallacy that capitalism is to blame for recessions, that a free market system causes an inevitable cycle of booms and busts. In reality, it is government intervention in the economy, particularly in the areas of money supply and interest rates, which creates the precarious financial bubbles that cause economic recessions. The Federal Reserve did two things to artificially expand the economy over the last decade. First, it relentlessly lowered interest rates whenever growth slowed. Interest rates should be set by the free market, with the availability of capital (i.e. savings) determining the cost of borrowing money. In a healthy market economy, more saving equals lower interest rates. When savings rates are low, capital dries up and the cost of borrowing increases. When interest rates are set by the market, individuals and businesses make good spending decisions, because they pay an accurate interest rate for their debts. However, when the Fed set rates artificially low, the cost of borrowing becomes cheap. Individuals incur greater amounts of debt (evidenced by the record number of personal bankruptcies), while businesses overextend themselves and grow without real gains in productivity. The bubble bursts quickly once the credit dries up and the bills cannot be paid. Second, the Fed also steadily increased the monetary supply throughout the 1990s by printing money. Recent Fed numbers show yearly increases of nearly 15% in the M2 money supply. Since 1996, the Fed has poured more than $100 billion in new dollars into the U.S. economy. These new dollars may make Americans feel richer, but the net result of monetary inflation has to be the devaluation of savings and purchasing power. Prices seemed stable over the last decade, but many types of inflation were not reported as such. An obvious example is stock prices, where companies making little or no profit often sold shares at ridiculous price/earnings ratios. Housing and energy prices also rose dramatically, and wholesale price inflation is an increasing threat. So while monetary inflation creates a sense of prosperity in the short run, long-term it simply makes your dollars worth less. Only six months ago, market pundits were still proclaiming a new era of unending prosperity. They claimed that the fundamentals no longer mattered, that technology would save us from any more bear markets. Technology is wonderful, but it cannot save us from our own misguided monetary policies. Until we stop permitting the Fed to manipulate the economy, real prosperity will elude us. The Fed received credit for the boom times of the 1990s, yet its policies are responsible for the market correction and economic recession we are experiencing today.

One reason this myth persists is that statist textbooks have helped perpetuate it for decades. From 1948 until about 1980 Paul Samuelson's Economics was the best-selling introductory economics text. Generations of students were introduced to economics by Samuelson. Although not as popular as it once was, Samuelson's text (now co-authored with William Nordhaus) is still widely used. According to the 1989 edition: The Federal Reserve's goals are steady growth in national output and low unemployment. Its sworn enemy is inflation. If aggregate demand is excessive, so that prices are being bid up, the Federal Reserve Board may want to slow the growth of the money supply, thereby slowing aggregate demand and output growth. If unemployment is high and business languishing, the Fed may consider increasing the money supply, thereby raising aggregate demand and augmenting output growth. In a nutshell, this is the function of central banking, which is an essential part of macroeconomic management in all mixed economies. For about the past fifteen years the top-selling economics text has been Campbell McConnell's Economics, which echoes Samuelson and Nordhaus's idealistic statism: Because it is a public body, the decisions of the Board of Governors are made in what it perceives to be the public interest ... the Federal Reserve Banks are not guided by the profit motive, but rather, they pursue those measures which the Board of Governors recommends ... The fundamental objective of monetary policy is to assist the economy in achieving a full employment, noninflationary level of total output. These are mere wishes, not statements of facts, for there is voluminous evidence that the Fed -- like all other governmental institutions -- has always been manipulated by politicians. The Fed as a Political Tool When the Fed was founded, it was controlled by two groups, the Governors' Conference, composed of the twelve regional bank presidents, and the seven-member Federal Reserve Board in Washington. In 1935 the Fed was reorganized to concentrate nearly all power in Washington. Franklin Roosevelt 'packed' the Fed just as he later filled the U.S. Supreme Court with political sycophants. Roosevelt appointed Martinet Eccles, a strong supporter of deficit spending and inflationary finance, as Fed Chairman, although Eccles had no financial background and lacked even an undergraduate degree. In those years the Fed was really run by Eccles's political mentor, Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau, Jr., and thus ultimately Roosevelt. Later presidents were no less willing to influence supposedly independent Fed policy. According to the late Robert Weintraub, the Federal Reserve fundamentally shifted its monetary policy course in 1953, 1961, 1969, 1974, and 1977-all years in which the presidency changed. Fed policy almost always changes to accommodate varying presidential preferences. For example, President Eisenhower wanted slower money growth. The money supply grew by 1.73 percent during his administration -- the slowest rate in a decade. President Kennedy desired somewhat faster money creation. From January 1961 to November 1963, the basic money supply grew by 2.31 percent. Lyndon Johnson required rapid money creation to finance his expansion of the welfare/warfare state. Money-supply growth more than doubled to 5 percent. These varying rates of monetary growth all occurred under the same Fed chairman, William McChesney Martin, who obviously was more interested in pleasing his political master than in implementing an independent monetary policy. Martin's successor, Arthur Burns, was such a staunch supporter of Richard Nixon that he lost all professional credibility by enthusiastically endorsing Nixon's disastrous wage and price controls. Even though his staff informed him in the fall of 1972 that the money supply was forecast to grow by an extremely robust 10.5 percent in the third quarter, Burns advocated ever faster growth before the election. The growth rate in the money supply in 1972 was the fastest for any one year since the end of World War II and helped re-elect Richard Nixon. However, President Ford called for slower monetary growth as part of his 'Whip Inflation Now' program, and the Fed complied with a 4.7 percent growth rate. But when Jimmy Carter was elected, Burns again complied with presidential wishes by stepping up the growth rate to 8.5 percent. Carter did not

Re: [CTRL] Anyone have any articles on the Federal Reserve System?
-Caveat Lector- Here's another source--written by Webster Tarpley, author of The Unauthorized Biography of George Bush--at http://www.tarpley.net/29crash.htm Excerpted from AGAINST OLIGARCHY Essays speeches 1970-1996 by Webster G. Tarpley PART 7 BRITISH FINANCIAL WARFARE: 1929; 1931- 33 HOW THE CITY OF LONDON CREATED THE GREAT DEPRESSION by Webster G. Tarpley December, 1996 The thesis of this paper is that the great economic and financial cataclysm of the first half of the twentieth century, which we have come to know as the Great Depression, was caused by the Bank of England, the British government, and the City of London. The potential for the Great Depression derived from the economic and human destruction wrought by World War I, which was itself a product of British geopolitics and especially of the British policy, exemplified by King Edward VII, of creating an encircling anti-German alliance in order to wage war. The economic destruction of Europe was continued after 1918 by the Peace of Paris (Versailles, St. Germain, Trianon, Neuilly, Sevres) imposed by the Allies on the defeated Central Powers. Especially important here were the 55 billion gold dollars in reparations inflicted on defeated Germany, along with the war debt burden of the supposedly victorious powers themselves. Never during the 1920's did world trade surpass the levels of 1913. Reparations and war debt were a recipe for economic stagnation. The ravaged post-war, post-Versailles world of the 1920's provides the main backdrop for the following considerations: 1. The events leading to the Great Depression are all related to British economic warfare against the rest of the world, which mainly took the form of the attempt to restore a London- centered world monetary system incorporating the gold standard. The efforts of the British oligarchy in this regard were carried out by a clique of international central bankers dominated by Lord Montagu Norman of the Bank of England, assisted by his tools Benjamin Strong of the New York Federal Reserve Bank and Hjalmar Schacht of the German Reichsbank. This British-controlled gold standard proved to be a straightjacket for world economic development, somewhat along the lines of the deflationary Maastricht "convergence criteria" of the late 1990's. 2. The New York stock exchange speculation of the Coolidge-Hoover era was not a spontaneous phenomenon, but was rather deliberately encouraged by Norman and Strong under the pretext of relieving pressure on the overvalued British pound sterling after its gold convertibility had been restored in 1925. In practice, the pro-speculation policies of the US Federal Reserve were promoted by Montagu Norman and his satellites for the express purpose of fomenting a Bubble Economy in the United States, just as later central bankers fostered a Bubble Economy in Japan after 1986. When this Wall Street Bubble had reached gargantuan proportions in the autumn of 1929, Montagu Norman sharply cut the British bank rate, repatriating British hot money, and pulling the rug out from under the Wall Street speculators, thus deliberately and consciously imploding the US markets. This caused a violent depression in the United States and some other countries, with the collapse of financial markets and the contraction of production and employment. In 1929, Norman engineered a collapse by puncturing the bubble. 3. This depression was rendered far more severe and, most importantly, permanent, by the British default on gold payment in September, 1931. This British default, including all details of its timing and modalities, and also the subsequent British gambit of competitive devaluations, were deliberate measures of economic warfare on the part of the Bank of England. British actions amounted to the deliberate destruction of the pound sterling system, which was the only world monetary system in existence at that time. The collapse of world trade became irreversible. With deliberate prompting from the British, currency blocs emerged, with the clear implication that currency blocs like the German Reichsmark and the Japanese yen would soon have to go to war to obtain the oil and other natural resources that orderly world trade could no longer provide. In 1931, Norman engineered a disintegration by detonating the gold backing of the pound sterling. 4. In the United States, the deliberate British default of September 1931 led, given the do-nothing Hoover Administration policies, directly to the banking crisis of 1932-33, which closed down or severely restricted virtually every bank in the country by the morning of Franklin D. Roosevelt's inauguration. If Roosevelt had not broken decisively with Hoover's impotent refusal to fight the depression, constitutional government might have collapsed. As it was, FDR was able to roll back the disintegration, but economic depression and mass unemployment were not overcome until 1940 and the passage of Lend-Lease. As we have already
