Former Texas Congressman and presidential candidate Ron Paul awakened a generation to the scheme of the
Federal Reserve and the role they play in the nation’s economy. In 2012, he told then Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke that though the Fed was claiming there is only a 2% inflation increase, that the reality was more like 9%. Paul even taunted Bernanke by asking if he purchased his own groceries at the store and was aware of the prices being paid. Mr. Bernanke did say that he purchased his own groceries. However, more to the point, Paul addressed the fact that the fiat money that the Fed produces is unconstitutional. So let’s take a moment to address the Constitutional issue. Is it still relevant today?
