Exactly! This makes me wonder whether a lot of the support for things like "Audit the Fed" - when it comes from foreign policy hawks - is just "skin deep."The two are mutually exclusive. You can't be fiscally responsible if you want to have the government's military spread around the world.
These anti-Fed (or at least "not-so-pro"-Fed) hawks are either A) just hitching a ride on a popular bandwagon or B) they really don't understand what a can of worms they're helping to open. The Federal Reserve system is the engine that drives our massive military spending & overseas misadventures.
Of course, it could be both A & B. In any case, I'll gladly take it - auditing the Fed is a necessary precursor to ending it.
ETA: Just read Bills' issues page (http://kurtbills.com/issues/). Definitely "thumbs up" for a Kurt Bills sub-forum!
