Audit the fed - dead...or will the dead cat bounce bring it back

When the DOW falls 2,000 points the pressure on the Fed will start to heat up again...for now Bernake and cohorts have used the process of printing money to buy votes, power and legislation. It is not compliant with the foundations of this republic. The reality is that in any most legal jurisdictions it would be called criminal and be a punishable offense. However, finance is government and most of the officials in government work for finance driven causes since the payoff they get is apparently free money that makes them look good to their constituents. This money is provided at the behest of the Fed and large financial institutions regardless of the liabilities and imbalances it creates.

Structural blackmail is alive and well.
