Written by Ron Paul - Following the 2008 market meltdown, the Fed embarked on an unprecedented money-creation binge. The result was historically low interest rates and an explosion of debt. Today total household debt and business debt are each over 16 trillion dollars. Of course, the biggest debtor is the federal government. The explosion of debt puts pressure on the Fed to keep increasing the money supply in order to maintain low interest rates. An increase in rates to anything close to what they would be in a free market could make it impossible for consumers, businesses, and (especially) the federal government to manage their debt. This would create a major economic crisis. The Fed has also dramatically expanded its balance sheet since 2008 via multiple rounds of “quantitative easing.” According to Bloomberg, the Fed is now the world’s largest investor and holds about one-third of all bonds backed by US home mortgages. Congress has expanded the Fed’s portfolio by giving the central bank authority to make trillions of dollars of payments to business as well as to state and local governments in order to help the economy recover from the unnecessary and destructive lockdowns.

'Stay home for Christmas'. Wear masks for the 'first 100 days' of the Biden Administration. Everyone to be issued vaccination cards and tracked in a CDC database. But, even with vaccines, UK medical officer says masks will have to be worn "for years." Authoritarianism is travelling at full-speed. The ideas of individual liberty are more important now than ever. http://www.ronpaullibertyreport.com/archives/papers-pleasein-america http://ronpaulinstitute.org/ Copyright © 2020 by RonPaul Institute.

Feeding fairy tales to American citizens is the modus operandi of Washington D.C. The latest on the economic front is a real doozy. When the (unconstitutional) Fed counterfeits dollars, it ultimately results in a rise in prices for goods and services. Americans suffer a lower standard of living by being forced to buy less with the dollars that they worked for. Does this immoral process sound like it's 'good for society' to you? http://www.ronpaullibertyreport.com/archives/yellen-inflation-your-lower-standard-of-living-is-good-for-society http://ronpaulinstitute.org/

Written by Daniel McAdams - Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) said on the weekend talk shows that it's time to start talking about sending US troops to directly fight Russia in Ukraine. Thus to defend Ukraine's borders, this member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee openly calls for that launch of what would be WWIII. Coons is joined by plenty of Republican Members calling for direct conflict with Russia, including disgraced neocon Rep. Adam Kinzinger. Also today: Fauci spills the beans on lockdowns and MSNBC spills the beans on its view of the role of media in a "free" society. http://ronpaulinstitute.org/archives/peace-and-prosperity/2022/april/18/us-senator-time-to-send-us-troops-to-fight-russia-in-ukraine/ http://www.ronpaullibertyreport.com/archives/us-senator-time-to-send-us-troops-to-fight-russia-in-ukraine Copyright © 2022 by RonPaul Institute.
