Urgent,,Vote for Ron Paul's H.R. 459 today!!!!

[PAULYPOKER]

Congressman Ron Paul's H.R. 459, the Federal Reserve Transparency Act, is scheduled for a vote this Tuesday, July 24!

Since its founding in 1913, the Federal Reserve has never been completely accountable to the American people, despite its policies helping to devalue our dollar, create malinvestment, and wreck our economy.

But current law prohibits Congress from fully auditing the Fed.

The Audit the Fed bill would empower the people's representatives to get the full story on what the Fed has been doing with our money.

So please contact your representative at the number listed and urge them to vote "YES" on Audit the Fed, H.R. 459!

Another failed piece of legislation from Paul, he should stick to selling aluminum foil hats.

[Balco10]

Fed Reserve should be abolished!

[rkelly110]

From yahoo:
And then there is this: Politico points out that Rep. Ron Paul's Audit the Fed bill is expected to pass the House on Wednesday. It has been a decade since Paul first introduced his bill. It originally was ignored. Now it has 270 co-sponsors

[ABEHONEST]

Glad to see Rkelly on-board Paul's ship!

[muldoon]

It's fascinating.

Honestly, I think it's going to be a red pill blue pill situation. Exposing the fed and opening up it's books could ring a bell that can't be unrung.

By nature, people claim to love transparency, yet build higher fences at the first chance.

I hope it passes.

[19th Hole]

much needed.

[Snowball]

they set a special suspension of rules to make this bill need a 2/3 majority
in the House. usually only a base majority is needed. Still, it is expected to
achieve the 2/3, then be stuffed under the rug in the Senate.

[Ghenghis Kahn]

most people have no idea what the federal reserve is all about. for those that are lost i really advise you to watch the youtube video i posted. i don't agree with all of what ron paul says but i do agree that we need to do something about the federal reserve. it fuckin doesn't make sense and bernanke's gotta go. that idiot has a big part in ruining the economy.

[hockey216]

a lot of you people who say that you hate the fed and want to abolish it and want to adopt a gold standard, etc....

dont really know what money is. or how it originates. or how it works. or the economic implications of letting banks run the country without an agent there to control the money supply. what if banks just lent out a higher percentage of their money? massive inflation. Money is created through lending. what if banks chose to operate at interest rates to maximize their profit, not do whats best for the economy? Without the fed, who would regulate the money supply to ensure maximum employment, growth, and price level stability... all at the same time?

politicians are too busy to do all that shit. and too damn politically biased.

While i agree that it would be amusing to be able to look at the Fed's figures... i think it is important that the Fed remains independent and free from short term political pressures. You wan't a bunch of stupid, lying politicians to regulate the economy instead of a bunch of Ph.d economists who know what's best?

[RonPaul2008]

Getting rid of the fed's monopoly on money is the single biggest thing we can do to get this country back on track.

[hockey216]

Getting rid of the fed's monopoly on money is the single biggest thing we can do to get this country back on track.

Lol.... so you dont want the Fed to have a monopoly on money...

you want every bank to issue their own currency? You think it'd be easier to facilitate trade if the USA had 100 different types of currency?



you guys dont even know what money is. you are drones.

politicians are too busy to do all that shit. and too damn politically biased.

While i agree that it would be amusing to be able to look at the Fed's figures... i think it is important that the Fed remains independent and free from short term political pressures. You wan't a bunch of stupid, lying politicians to regulate the economy instead of a bunch of Ph.d economists who know what's best?

Have you read anything by Murray Rothbard or Von Mises?

It’s finally happened. On July 25, the U.S. House of Representatives approved by an overwhelming margin a measure calling for an audit of the privately controlled Federal Reserve System banking monopoly, often mistakenly believed to be a “government” entity.

Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), a longtime—and for many years virtually the only—congressional proponent of a Fed audit, was the prime mover behind the bill, which was numbered H.R. 459.Titled the Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2012, H.R. 459 calls for “a full audit of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Reserve banks by the comptroller general of the United States before the end of 201

The House approved the bill by a vote of 327-98. Of 240 Republicans, 238 were in favor, with one lone GOP member—Bob Turner (N.Y.)—voting “no.” Another GOP member, Steve Stivers (Ohio) did not vote. House Democrats were essentially split on the issue with a slight majority (97 in number) voting against, while 89 stood with the GOP majority. Five Democrats chose not to vote.

Since 30 years ago—when Liberty Lobby, the Washington-based populist institution, and its national weekly newspaper, The Spotlight, forerunner of AMERICAN FREE PRESS—were urging Congress to rally behind Paul’s efforts to bring public focus on the Federal Reserve System (and the need for an audit thereof), critics called this a “fringe issue.” No more. Instead, a wide range of House members of both parties—“liberal” and “conservative” alike—eagerly joined Paul to co-sponsor H.R. 459, fully conscious of growing public awareness of this issue.
The burgeoning support for the audit-the-Fed measure is the consequence of energetic efforts by patriots nationwide who have, for decades, focused on the problems surrounding essentially unregulated control of the American economic system by this private money monopoly.

The House vote is a landmark event, a tribute to not only Paul’s prescience and persistence on the issue, but also to the passionate efforts of good patriots—like the readers of AFP—who have kept the heat on Congress on this issue.
The Senate is expected to take up its own version, S. 202, soon. Approval there may face an uphill battle since Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has vowed it will never be voted on in the Senate. However, concerted public pressure—particularly during an election year—could turn the tide. To contact your senator, you can call the congressional switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and urge support for S. 202. Call Reid and tell him to bring the issue to a Senate vote.
