Ron Paul campaigned for "auditing the Fed" perhaps more than he campaigned for president. Was he exaggerating, or does Congress not actually audit and otherwise oversee the Fed?
- eru 4y agoThe Fed gets regular audits as far as I can tell. But perhaps Ron Paul was campaigning for more thorough ones?
