Federal Reserve to Hire Ex-Enron Lobbyist in PR Move to Counter Doubts about Fed's Growing Power Over U.S. Financial System
How is the Fed responding to:
(1) a bill in Congress with 190 co-sponsors to audit the Fed
(2) a new law giving the GAO some power to examine the Fed's actions
and
(3) calls by many to abolish the Fed altogether?
A promise of 100% openness and full disclosure to Congress and the American people?
An agreement to stop all behind-the-scenes shenanigans?
An end to the whole scam of private bankers "creating" credit and bilking the taxpayers out of trillions in interest?
Of course not!
Instead, the Fed is . . . launching a new p.r. campaign to show everyone how wonderful Ben and the boys really are.
