Duck Tales 1; Federal Reserve 0. Posted on March 19, 2009, 3:14 PM | Brian Saint-Paul |
The Federal Reserve is at it again:
The Federal Reserve sharply stepped up its efforts to bolster the economy on Wednesday, announcing that it would pump an extra $1 trillion into the financial system by purchasing Treasury bonds and mortgage securities....
But there were also clear indications that the Fed was taking risks that could dilute the value of the dollar and set the stage for future inflation. Gold prices rose $26.60 an ounce, hitting $942, a sign of declining confidence in the dollar. The dollar, which had been losing value in recent weeks to the euro and the yen, dropped sharply again on Wednesday....
In effect, the central bank has been lending money to a wider and wider array of borrowers, and it has financed that lending by using its authority to create new money at will.
What does it say about our financial masters when they're taken to school on currency inflation by a twenty-year-old episode of Duck Tales?
If you're interested in learning more about the Fed's involvement in the financial collapse, here's my interview with Tom Woods from last week.
