Proposed bill HR 1207, called the Federal Reserve Transparency Act, would allow an audit of the Federal Reserve. This bill needs more co-sponsors and clear bipartisan support.
This bill would remove the restriction upon the Federal Reserve to reveal fiscal information. Up to this point there is no lawful way to audit or monitor the Federal Reserve.
Rep. Ron Paul originally proposed HR 877 in 1983, a bill that would allow the GAO (General Accounting Office) to audit the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Advisory Council, the Federal Open Market Committee and the federal banks and branches themselves.
With its power and influence, the Federal Reserve must be examined. Couldn’t you say or at least infer that the Fed Chair has, in many cases, just as much power or more than anyone sitting in the President’s chair?
Let your voice be heard. The US Capital switchboard: 1 (877) 851-6437.
This is simply common sense.
Why the secrecy?

I generally loathe Ron Paultard, but this one is good.
Concur. He can be from a planet not my own, but on this issues I have to agree with him.
Mr Obama may inadvertently have pushed the secretive Fed cat out of the bag by insisting on his disastrous fiscal policies. Exposure to the light of day is needed.

Ron Paul hits about .333, this is one of his better efforts, now, all ya gotta do is avoid the Paulinistas…
TF: they have no idea I’m even alive. But I have to say, I’m completely with him on this one.
If only he weren’t from the planet Zephron.

A broken clock is right twice a day.
Still BZ,if Paulie is for it there HAS TO BE somehing MAJORALLY wrong with it!! What’s in the “fine Print”?
The Creature from Jekyell Island

A fun read about the Federal Reserve.
You won’t believe it.
A book my father told me I had to read.
Review:
You’ll be hooked in five minutes. Reads like a detective story – which it really is. But it’s all true. This book is about the most blatant scam of all history. It’s all here: the cause of wars, boom-bust cycles, inflation, depression, prosperity.
Creature from Jekyll Island is a “must read.” Your world view will definitely change. You’ll never trust a politician again – or a banker.
Maybe you’re on to something, Ranando??

BZ,
I can’t believe that I agree with Ron Paul on anything, but I’m inclined to support anything that opens government to we long-suffering taxpayers. Good post and a good find on the video.
