Audit the Fed-H.R. 1207
The Fed is tasked with keeping America fully employed as well as keeping inflation low. When employment is sagging, the Fed lowers interest rates. When inflation roars, the Fed raises interest rates.

Crisis is Brewing
September 25, 2009 My inference reading brings to surface the prospect of a war breaking out over water! Sure, the earth has a lot of water, but most of it is oceanic salt water.
