Money, Banking and the Federal Reserve

Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson understood "The Monster". But to most Americans today, Federal Reserve is just a name on the dollar bill. They have no idea of what the central bank does to the economy, or to their own economic lives; of how and why it was founded and operates; or of the sound money and banking that could end the statism, inflation, and business cycles that the Fed generates.Dedicated to Murray N. Rothbard, steeped in American history and Austrian economics, and featuring Ron Paul, Joseph Salerno, Hans Hoppe, and Lew Rockwell, this extraordinary new film is the clearest, most compelling explanation ever offered of the Fed, and why curbing it must be our first priority. Alan Greenspan is not, we're told, happy about this 42-minute blockbuster. Watch it, and you'll understand why. This is economics and history as they are meant to be: fascinating, informative, and motivating. This movie could change America.

The fact that the Federal Reserve Act was drafted by the fattest of fat cat bankers should be enough for any reasonable person to oppose it.

@MrAdrius194 The difference between "Means of Production" and "Means of Exchange" is not easy to grasp, so I am sympathetic to your perspective. However, the distinction is paramount in understanding monetary frameworks. If you understand the difference, you'd know why gold is not money, it is a product/asset ;)I have studied Austrian theory and Keynesian theory. I think they're both wrong. =)

@TheBalancedAmerican Monetary policy has no place in a free society. Also, whose goal are you talking about? The only thing that matters in this case is that there is no new money being created ex nihilo. In order to maintain value/price stability, new money must be created, whether as high powered money by the Fed, or as debt through Fractional Reserve Banking. Either case creates unsustainable bubbles that must fail. You should study Austrian Business Cycle Theory.

@MrAdrius194 Do not confuse innovation and efficiency with "means of exchange." Money is a representation of a productive unit. In monetary policy, the only thing that really matters is the quantity of money in relation to productive output, not value or price. With inflation, the original productive unit becomes worth less.  With deflation, the original productive unit becomes worth more. The goal is to have money be an accurate representation of reality. =)
