This might be my forum, but I'm not the only person here.

I'm split minded about this issue, I used to find Austrian arguments compelling but recently my increased understanding of anti Semitic conspiracy theories regarding evil bankers lead me to question the legitimacy of the disturbingly similar arguments now being made by such fringe demagogues as Ron Paul and Denis Kucinich.

I am now starting to lean heavily in favor of the fed, albeit with more oversight and transparency.

What do you think?
