The Federal Reserve and Ben Bernanke are surrounded with  controversy , for the 16+ Trillion provided to foreign banks, the 40 billion a month in stimulus money, and now this document is exposed. You be the judge.

Ben Bernanke  “While the outcome of the vote was not in doubt, your willingness to stand up for the independence of the Federal Reserve is greatly appreciated,” Bernanke wrote in the letters, which were obtained by Politico through a Freedom of Information Act request.

  Bernanke continued, “Independence in monetary policy operations is now the norm for central banks around the world — and it would be a grave mistake were Congress to reverse the protection it provided to the Federal Reserve more than 30 years ago.”

The letters were sent to Reps. Barney Frank, Elijah Cummings, Melvin Watt, Carolyn Maloney and Steny Hoyer.

  The Government Accounting Office does not have complete access to all aspects of the Federal Reserve System. The law excludes the following areas from GAO inspections (31 USCA §714):

(1) transactions for or with a foreign central bank, government of a foreign country, or nonprivate international financing organization;

(2) deliberations, decisions, or actions on monetary policy matters, including discount window operations, reserves of member banks, securities credit, interest on deposits, open market operations;

(3) transactions made under the direction of the Federal Open Market Committee; or

(4) a part of a discussion or communication among or between members of the Board of Governors and officers and employees of the Federal Reserve System related to items.

  • Time to end the Fed?

    • Hermann Cain told me (shhh) they want to REPLACE the IRS (We the People). Big step in the Right direction. Energy Policy? What Romney said. Rand Paul is on board. Don’t know about Ron yet, but imagine so. We have to get rid of the U.N. too. Get with Hermann Chris, he will tell you more.

  • A private secretive Company controlling my country’s money —they gotta go!

  • Mansanto, doe and those on the human genome project are a much greater threat!

    Money is nothing!

  • What good is money if your whole family is sick and dying???

    • So you do not think this is important?Try buying a can of beans pretty soon if the Fed keeps devaluing our currency.If we could just go back to the value of a dollar 10 years ago I would be able to shop at a whole foods health store.The corporations win when people are poor.I scour 3 dollar stores before I go to the regular supermarket now.We drive 30 miles away to get our meats in bulk(grass fed Florida). A friend of mine drives 50 miles away and pays 10 a gallon for unpasteurized milk.If you could afford a chunk of property outside of town to grow a substantial garden,you might not be able to afford to drive to it in the near future.Everything takes money,that is why this is super important. :mrgreen:

  • “Independence”, like they’re a repressed sovereign individual, not a cabal of private foreign central bank vampires. Unbelievable how easy it is to fool people with language…

  • Anonymous

    Bernanke lives in his own World …and tunes out the rest of the real world…who thinks he is a loser!

  • More lies to deflect the criticism away from the GOVERNMENT. The ‘fed’ is the shadow bank of congress. The ‘fed’ does not own any printing presses. The US Treasury prints the money. The Treasury knows to the penny how much money the ‘fed’ has put into circulation. You have been duped. The ‘fed’ is the bank of ‘taxation’ which imposes the tax by taking the money the GOVERNMENT prints, and loaning back to the government itself so it can spend it and inflate the currency. The ‘fed’ was created to keep the sheeple angry at a ‘private bank’, so that corrupt politicians can spend, spend, spend, without any poltitical consequences.

  • VINCENT CERF! KUDOS! KEEP UP THE FIGHT! ALL HANDS ON DECK! GET THIS TO EVERYONE IN YOUR PERSONAL EMAIL SOCIAL NETWORKS.
    I told you GOOGLE is on our side! All business, military, banking, church, all of it GOES DOWN without GOOGLE’S help. Get into T.E.A. Party – get involved.

    EVERYONE WILL FALL INCLUDING MAINSTREAM MEDIA, IF THIS IS NOT STOPPED!

    Subject: Stop UN Regulation Of The Internet

    Stop UN Regulation Of The Internet
    By DICK MORRIS
    Published on DickMorris.com on October 10, 2012

    Printer-Friendly Version
    Secretly, behind closed doors, the nations of the world are negotiating a treaty — initiated by Russia and China — to regulate the Internet through the United Nations. The only reason we know about these talks in the first place is through a WikiLeaks anonymous posting by a participant in the talks. That and the fact that a signing ceremony has been scheduled in Dubai in December of 2012.

    The Russian and Chinese play to get control of the Internet is one of the major themes in our new book, Here Come The Black Helicopters: UN Global Governance and the Loss of Freedom. The world learned of these negotiations only because Jerry Brito and Eli Dourado, George Mason University researchers, set up a web site called WCITLeaks and encouraged anyone with knowledge of the negotiations to make an anonymous posting detailing their progress. Someone responded on June 12th of this year posting a 250 page synopsis of the proposed treaty and the talks surrounding it.

    The Treaty would provide:

    • The UN would distribute and assign all e-names.

    • Each country would be notified of the IP addresses of each email user within their borders (allowing China and Russia to track down dissidents).

    • The UN could regulate Internet content.

    • Every nation would have the right to censor web sites that originate in their country.

    • And every country could charge a surcharge for access to any web sites that originate beyond their borders.

    Vinton Cerf, one of the founders of the Internet and currently vice president of Google, has correctly warned that the “open Internet has never been at higher risk than it is now.” He notes that “if all of us don’t pay attention to what’s going on, users worldwide will be at risk of losing the open and free Internet that has brought so much to so many.”

    Meet Hamadoun Toure, the new wanna be boss of the Internet. Educated at the Leningrad Institute and at Moscow Technical University — both during the 80s — he is now the head of the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) of the United Nations. And he’s Vladimir Putin’s choice to run the Internet.

    Currently the ITU is a little known arm of the UN in charge of long distance phone calls and satellite orbits. But the negotiations now under way would vest it with enormous powers over the Internet.

    And yet, there is almost no coverage of this outrageous proposal and possible treaty in the media in the United States. The Wall Street Journal has warned that the proposal treaty could “use the International Telecommunications Regulations to take control of the Internet.”

    If we don’t rally to protect the Internet and stop this outrageous invasion of our liberties, we may lose it forever.
