Federal Reserve Promised to End Banking Panics, But What Came Next?
Michael Maloney, founder and CEO of GoldSilver.com, has shed light on the historical context surrounding the creation of the Federal Reserve system in 1913. According to him, the central banking system was promoted as a solution to prevent banking panics.
The Federal Reserve's ability to create large amounts of money with minimal effort is a notable feature that Maloney has highlighted in the past. He pointed out that it takes only 12 keystrokes to create $1 trillion, illustrating the power of central banks to manipulate the monetary system.
In a related observation, Maloney noted the rapid increase in U.S. debt from $14 trillion to over $40 trillion, underscoring his ongoing focus on central banking and fiscal expansion.
