The problem with the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 is that this power was relegated from Congress to private central banks, i.e. the Federal Reserve Banks (privately owned) and now rather than Congress creating money, we, the taxpayers must pay private central banks interest to do what Congress was suppose to do for the cost of the paper.
But conservatives think this is good, right? I thought that conservatives think that the government can't do anything right, and that private enterprise does everything better. Like Social Security and health care. And education. And prisons. And everything else that the conservatives have been trying to privatize.
Speaking personally, I find few things more awesome than contemplating this vast and majestic process of evolution, the ebb and flow of successive biotas through geological time. Creationists and others who cannot for ideological or religious reasons accept the fact of evolution miss out a great deal, and are left with a claustrophobic little universe in which nothing happens and nothing changes.
