The US was built on the ideas of individual freedoms and individual responsibilities and these concepts are being seriously eroded by both political parties. The US is clearly on the path to European style democratic socialism and I personally think that is a real shame.
It's strange how you come across as seeming to know what's going on, yet you don't seem to understand the history and workings of the Federal Reserve, our central bank.

Great presidents like Lincoln and JFK have died opposing these central banks. They tried to kill Andrew Jackson for opposing the First Bank of the United States, but failed. Jackson said he wanted "I Killed the Bank" written on his tombstone.

But most people won't listen, they are convinced the FED is a government entity, and won't even question the root of it's existence.

The Federal Reserve is about as federal as Federal Express.
