Money is the lifeblood of any economy, and control over a nation's currency means control over its economic well being. Fed bankers quite literally determine the value of our money, by controlling the supply of dollars and establishing interest rates. Their actions can make you richer or poorer overnight, in terms of the value of your savings and the buying power of your paycheck. So I urge all Americans to educate themselves about monetary policy, and better understand how a small group of unelected individuals at the Federal Reserve and Treasury department wield tremendous power over our lives.

Monetary Policy & The Manipulation of our American Dollar

Dear Representative,

The gold reserves of the United States have NOT been fully & independently audited for more than half a century.  Transparency in monetary policy is a goal we should all support. I've often wondered why Congress so willingly has given up its perogative over monetary policy. Astonishingly, Congress in essence has ceded total control over the value of our money to a secretive central bank.

Congress, although not by law, essentially has given up all its oversight responsibility over the Federal Reserve. There are no true audits, and Congress knows nothing of the conversations, plans, and actions taken in concert with other central banks. We get less and less information regarding the money supply each year.
But these actions, directed by the Federal Reserve, alter the purchasing power of our money. And that purchasing power is always reduced. The dollar today is worth only four cents compared to the dollar in 1913, when the Federal Reserve started. This has profound consequences for our economy and our political stability. All paper currencies are vulnerable to collapse, and history is replete with examples of great suffering caused by such collapses, especially to a nation's poor and middle class. This leads to political turmoil.
The United States gold reserves and those of other Western nations are being used for the secretive and fraudulent manipulation of the international currency, commodity, equity, and bond markets.

The objective of this manipulation is to conceal the mismanagment of the US Dollar so that it might retain it's function as the world's reserve currency. Suppressing the price of gold disables the standard of comparison in the international financial market system so the ALL markets are easily manipulated. 

This manipulation by government is leading the world to financial disaster. It needs to be exposed AND STOPPED.

How can a policy of steadily debasing our currency be defended morally, knowing what harm it causes to those who still believe in saving money and assuming responsibility for themselves in their retirement years? Is it any wonder we are a nation of debtors rather than savers?
We need more transparency in how the Federal Reserve carries out monetary policy, and we need it soon. 

Please act on this issue to restore the value of the U.S. Dollar; regulations within the Federal Reserve or it's dismanteling of.  As well as our trust in a government determined to keep it's Citizens and Tax Payers unaware of this issue until it can no longer be ignored and our currency is worthless.

ACT NOW!
