If you don't know what happened in Zimbabwe when Mugabe began monetizing debt, by all means do the the research yourself and find out exactly what occurred. the Fed is a semi private central bank that illegally creates fiat currency that has no backing other than the coercive power of government.

I don't know about you, but I don't know of any government agency that is incorporated. The Fed is in place so the government can borrow an unlimited amount of money at any time to finance its reckless spending projects. Whether they be a war, social programs or bailouts like we witnessed in 2008. The government likes the fed because they can then spend far more than they take in from taxes on various programs that we can't afford as a country or on the expansion of the American Empire under the guise of spreading freedom and democracy around the globe. By being in place, we the people, then pay back for their reckless spending, thru the hidden tax of inflation. If you learn nothing else, understand that inflation is, in fact, a tax! If the Fed did not exist. And the congress can end the fed at any time, they created it by passing the Federal Reserve Act in 1913. Then the government would have to "ask" the american people to pay for any project in the form of direct taxes. A certain amount per family per year.

It doesn't get any safer. The interest return isn't much, but any profit earned is a profit saved. And the thing of beauty is that at the end of the bond term the Feds get back the capital they used to purchase the bonds, so its really not a debt, its more like an asset. The Federal Reserve turns National debts into National assets. GO USA! |

You are sort of on track. The FED takes the interest the the US Government pays on the bonds and notes and deposits it in the US Treasury. We are free next month to use it again to pay that month's interest. Thus, you see, we really do not pay interest on the Bonds and Notes when the FED owns them.

A $2 trillion deficit means $2 trillion in new bonds needs to be issued. Approx. $200 billion a month. 8. I want to take you inside the mind of a primary dealer. These are the approx. 20 dealers that have contracts with the US govt to market their bonds. The way the deal works in the govt's mind is: "You buy our bonds and sell them. You can short t-bonds going into the auction and bag a nice profit for yourself. But if you don't sell the bonds to your clients, guess who owns them? You do! If you don't like it, no more primary dealing for you, got it? And maybe we aren't so keen to hand over anymore bailout money or allow fraud accounting of your OTC derivatives. So play ball, or we take you out." 9.

He still manages $1.5 billion as a side gig. His minimum trade is $5 million. He looks like a pitbull and uses 4 letter words like Mr. Bernanke uses a greenback photocopier. He carefully detailed to me the horrors that began roaring thru the bond market, horrors that are growing, since the shocking $110 billion US govt bond auction was announced for this week. 10. The bottom line is: There isn't enough money to soak up all the govt paper screaming down the pipe.

The FED will be buying the paper from Japan and China, and that decreases our financial support to those two countries. That is right, we have been financially supporting them for a great many years now. So now, our monstrous economy has decided to cut back on support for the lesser countries out there.

2010 User ID: 1150644 Germany 11/03/2010 01:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The issue is that when (if) QE ever ends, the rush away from even the 5 year spot on the curve will result in a major shift in maturity lower, and the Treasury will have no choice but to refinance rolling debt with ultra-short term debt, until the entire curve is grossly skewed toward Bill holdings in an attempt to avoid an interest payment explosion. |

JoeNeubarth User ID: 1127812 United States 11/03/2010 02:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why are central banks such as the fed needed again? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1149523Very simply, the FED is not like most central banks. Still there is the need to finance economic corrective matters to prevent Depressions in a country. The FED was born because the US was incapable of dealing with Depressions. Now that we have the FED independent of the US government (but pledged to support same), the US can deal with strong negative economic moves. It took the US a while to learn how to use the tools that the creation of the FED gave us, but now it appears to be working. We have managed to hold off the potentially greatest economic Depression in world history in the past three years because of FED action. God Bless Bernanke! The system works. It is not absolutely perfect, but it sure beats what we had before the FED was created just prior to WWI. Because of the FED we were able to finance our war expenditures in that war. God bless the FED. The pathological liars on this forum will repeatedly lie and say the FED prints money. It does not. The Treasury does. The Treasury also prints the Bonds and short term Notes that the government uses to fund deficit spending. The FED buys those notes and bonds to keep the interest rate on them low. Any Note or Bond that the FED buys is essentially interest free to the US government. That is a damn good deal. DAMN GOOD! How much money can the US government borrow if it is interest free borrowing?????? That is right. The amount is unlimited. How soon do we have to pay the money back if we borrow from the FED????? That is right, we really never have to pay it back if we borrow interest free from the FED. We can just roll over the debt. And to think, there are stupid shits like RON PAUL who want to do away with the FED. That asshole is insane. Last Edited by JoeNeubarth on 11/03/2010 02:09 PM 1st Place in Novel Sales for 6 yrs!
