Even the Wall Street Journal Says "Break up the Fed"


In a sign of the growing movement to end the Fed, the bastion of the economic status quo - the Wall Street Journal - published an OpEd today entitled "Let's Break Up the Fed" and subtitled "The Federal Reserve has done a terrible job at financial regulation. Why give it more power?".

Given that a new Gallup poll shows that American's trust in the Fed has plummeted, and that Ron Paul's bill to audit the Fed has at least 276 co-sponsors in the House, and 19 co-sponsors in the Senate, even Bernanke's charm offensive doesn't seem to be working very well.
