Senate Video: Bernie Sanders (V-I) discusses the failures of Ben Bernanke and why he has chosen to 'block' the Fed Chairman's confirmation vote on the Senate floor -- December 3, 2009
Outstanding speech plus Sander's official written release.
Ben S. Bernanke doesn't know how lucky he is. Tongue-lashings from Bernie Sanders, the populist senator from Vermont, are one thing. The hangman's noose is another. Section 19 of this country's founding monetary legislation, the Coinage Act of 1792, prescribed the death penalty for any official who fraudulently debased the people's money. Was the massive printing of dollar bills to lift Wall Street (and the rest of us, too) off the rocks last year a kind of fraud?
Is this how hyperinflation will eventually start? A policy of quantitative easing left in place just 1 weekend too long and poof there goes the dollar up in flames.
