re: Anyone else read: The Creature from Jekyll Island?

Plenty of people, and some politicians, are outspoken about how powerful the Fed and the banks have become ... but hey, there's probably nothing that can be done about it at this point. Especially when so many citizens are completely ignorant to how the system works ... the Fed and banks pretty-much have carte blanche.

My advice, fwiw, is pay off all of your bills, (especially credit cards), be debt free (drive older cars), and prepare for old age because it comes-up fast ... before you know it.
