Burn It Down: The Federal Reserve Has Failed—Time to Pull the Plug
The Great Lie of the Fed’s “Mandate”
Congress handed the Fed a holy trinity of economic mandates: maximum employment, stable prices, and low interest rates. Cute, right? The problem is, the very structure of central banking makes achieving all three not just unlikely—it makes it impossible. Ludwig von Mises called it a century ago: you can't print your way to prosperity.
The Fed’s weapon of choice? Monetary inflation. Pump the system full of fake dollars, create a sugar rush of “growth,” and when the hangover hits—raise rates and blame the free market. Rinse. Repeat. Every damn time.
Meanwhile, the Fed remains “independent”—which means unaccountable. These economic arsonists worshipped in D.C. and worshipped even harder on Wall Street are just central planners in a different costume. Soviet-style economic engineering with a PowerPoint and a press conference.
At least a few patriots like Rep. Thomas Massie get it. He’s introduced a bill to abolish the Fed. And frankly, it’s about time.
Stagflation: A Symptom of a Diseased System
Right now, America’s in the throes of stagflation—sky-high inflation and rising unemployment. Keynesians, as usual, have no idea what’s going on. But the Austrian economists—those prophets of monetary sanity—do. Rothbard nailed it: When the central bank hijacks the economy, the price of everything climbs, and your real wages crumble.
In a real free market, recessions clear out bad investments and reset prices. But the Fed doesn’t allow that anymore. They print to prop up zombie corporations, inflate consumer prices, and feed the fire with even more debt. Result? You suffer through both inflation and recession—simultaneously.
The Fed’s Blood Trail: Inflation, Interest Rates, and Economic Collapse
The COVID lockdowns were the final excuse the Fed needed. In 2020, they blasted the money supply up 40%—an economic war crime in any sane world. Surprise: we got the worst inflation in 40 years. CPI hit 9%, and suddenly Jerome Powell “discovered” the need for rate hikes—five percentage points in two years, the most since Volcker’s era.
This artificial tightening nuked the money supply—down over 10% in 2023, the worst drop since the Great Depression. The yield curve inverted and stayed that way longer than any time in recorded history. That’s not just a warning sign—that’s a damn siren.
And despite all this, inflation won’t die. The Fed’s beloved Core PCE is still at 2.8%. Treasury yields are over 4%, and inflation expectations are roaring back to 1980s levels. The system is not healing—it’s seizing up. And the interest payments on the federal debt? Over a trillion dollars a year now. Just behind Social Security. You’re paying for this with every dollar you earn.
Signs of the Storm
Let’s not mince words—a recession is either here or it’s knocking on your door. Four big red flags:
- The Conference Board’s leading economic index has been falling for three years straight.
- Unemployment’s jumped nearly a full point—from 3.4% to 4.2%.
- Consumer sentiment is in the toilet—on par with 2008.
- Two-thirds of Americans expect higher unemployment.
You don’t need an economics degree to read the room. We’re not just heading for another downturn—we’re being marched into it by central planners who don’t give a damn about the fallout.
Abolish the Fed—Or Admit the Lie
Let’s cut the pretense. The Fed hasn’t just failed—it was always doomed to. You can’t centrally plan a free economy without breaking it. Congress must abolish the Fed. Not “reform” it. Not “audit” it. Burn it down. Scatter the ashes. Salt the earth.
If they won’t? Then at least drop the charade. Admit that the Fed isn’t bound by any mandate. Admit it’s a sovereign power ruling over your financial life with zero consent.
