What should be major news across the country is that, for some reason, all but one Democratic U.S. senator voted against auditing the evil Federal Reserve (Senate Bill 2232, the Federal Reserve Transparency Act) that raises and lowers the Dow Jones Average at will. The bill was defeated.What is exceptional is that U.S. Sen. Robert Corker Jr., a Tennessee Republican, voted with the Democrats! Has anyone in the news media asked any of those who voted against the Federal Reserve audit why? Hello!Both citizens and legislators should have an opportunity to see if members of the Federal Reserve should be in jail or fined. The Federal Reserve is a private concern that makes money every time we go into further debt.Obviously under the Obama administration, at a time when debt went up from $12 trillion to $20 trillion, the Federal Reserve is very very happy.Goldman Sachs, who Heidi Cruz works for, is in bed with the Federal Reserve. They, too, make money on our debt. By the way, Sen. Ted Cruz, husband of Heidi Cruz, did not bother to vote for SB 2232! Hmmm.Joseph DuPontTowanda
