24. Audit is needed but won't solve the underlying problem

an audit of the FED is long overdue. The fact that it's never happend in nearly 100 years is an outrage. (and I'm not even American)

The problem won't be solved though as the whole political system is rigged against individual liberty through the exercise of majority rule elections.

I'm not against Democracy, just simply against the insurmountable amount of power the leaders we elect always amass at our expense and ability to make individual decision on our own behalf.

The 'Tyranny of the Majority; is the underlying issue, and biggest scourge facing ever Democracy today including the United States, not an audit of the FED:
