So, you advocate tax revenue aggregating to the Fed, then the redistribution being managed by private banks? Shouldn't that up to the People?
I guess there's just some political dissonance I perceive in the comments here: On one hand it's not okay if the government uses taxpayer revenue to "redistribute wealth" back to the people because, and I'm back-napkinning here, it'll fall into an endless void of unsustainable amounts of soulless feral children, big and flat screen TVs in every room including the bathroom, and shiny accoutrements for unaffordable cars. Oh, and let's ignore food and clothes because these savage poor and old people wear tatters to protect their shame and also eat their rims. But, miraculously, all those products and pharmaceuticals and adult undergarments and electric motor scooters for the mall are somehow not units of work exchanged for units of money. It's a pit -- a hungry, ceaseless, unending pit of despair that we should starve and force into servitude and submission rather than give a dime to.
On the other hand, it's okay if banks who form the FOMC distributed tax revenue to themselves because it'll get reallocated to other rich people across the globe, who as we all know are accountable for 100% of the jobs and job growth that has or will ever be made in the history of US commerce, Amen. Oh, and (jedi hand wave) forget the crash of 2008, the S&L bailout of the 80s, the Great Depression, and all the various major crashes in between all fueled by speculation and 20x margin accounts and other toxic assets. They'll always do good by the taxpayer. Always.
