Clearly, I've got lots to learn to do the depth of your effort to provide me an answer any justice. It strikes me that the large banks are at the root of their smaller counterparts demise and wanted to ask that of someone with some expertise, which you seem to not just possess, but share.
Saw a post at Common Dreams a few weeks back, suggesting we forget auditing the fed and take stock of Fort Knox. After thinking about it in the back of my mind off and on, I went back yesterday and copied it to gain a greater understanding, but I'm in over my head. As much as I'd like to see that info posted here at DU, I don't feel it appropriate without its authors consent, as the post was in response to a published article. Checked the DU journals, but said poster is not listed here, at least not by the same name.
Have a great weekend.
Stay warm!
