“My bill would replace the Federal Reserve System’s dependence on private banks to create credit. In its place, a Monetary Authority under the Treasury Department would directly inject liquidity into the economy by purchasing much needed public infrastructure repair.

These conditions are the best possible time to make a long-term investment in our nation’s infrastructure.”
Just so simple. Let the government print the money and spend it into existence like the framers intended.
The concept is so simple. If you could print money in your garage, would you borrow it from a bank? Of course not. So why do governments borrow from banks, when they could just print what they need? Answer: because the banks own the governments.

the cretins of congress won’t support the obvious return to the Constitutional intent, they work for the BANKS, not the Govt.
Ok the govt is the banks, perhaps I should say the common good of the citizenry.

Bloodless. And we lose yet another great progressive voice.
