Ron Paul Right On Regarding National Wealth

In the December 16, 2010 in the New York Times article "Ron Paul Appears Poised to Irk the Fed Chief"  Floyd Norris references last years writing by the Texas Congressman.
Ron Paul summed things up perfectly when he spoke of the need to abolish the fed. " If the Fed were abolished, he wrote last year, “the national wealth would no longer be hostage to the whims of a handful of appointed bureaucrats whose interests are equally divided between serving the banking cartel and serving the most powerful politicians in Washington.”
The Revolution: A Manifesto
This is why we can get no resolution with the housing crisis and the reason no one tried to stop Wall Street from over leveraging.  Everyone looked the other way because these politicians are owned by Wall Street.  It is extremely troubling to see how willing the government is to let the elite control the flow of money and the generation of wealth as long as they pay off the politicians.
End The Fed
I am not sure that eliminating the Fed would abolish the issues regarding inequality of national wealth but his explanation on the method of operation for the banks, Wall Street, and the politicians is right on the money.

Politics as usual. 

A nice Christmas present for all you die hard voters revealed as so gullible every election. 

I think it is time to make a case for not voting unless you have a truly reforming candidate.  After all the bravado and chest pumping that took place after the election it is clear no one in congress really cares about the country or the people.  The people don't end up in politics because they want to do what their voters ask of them.  They end up in congress because of the power, the perks and the great health care.  Does anyone know of  a better gig for a middle aged person who may have had some success in the private sector?  I don't. 
Does anyone know of such great opportunity for someone who has had no success in the private sector and typically no experience in anything related to writing bills or effective public speaking?   I don't. 
If it isn't clear that the great majority of Congress is not in the least bit interested in doing what is right for the country. 
I have never forgotten a statement made by one of my political science graduate assistant as he lectured on the psychology of politicians.  He was very clear in making this important point to the class. 
He said "Item number one on the agenda of politicians is getting re elected.  Once they are in office 99% of They quickly change alliances and renege on their statements promising reform and a return to government for the people and by the people. 
The right to vote is becoming meaningless because of the power afforded to Wall Street and the financial institutions.  Who came to the White House for a summit this week?   It wasn't the little guy or the small business owner.  It was the bank executives and J Immelt.  As if they are trying to give credibility to the ponzi scheme run by these perpetrators in order to help them pull off the stunt again. 

Republicans and Democrats are no different.  They all love the camera and would never pass up the opportunity to say something idiotic into a microphone. 
It looks like all of you that voted for change in 08 and then for new change in 2010 have been duped by the smooth talking snake oil salesmen of congress.
