Elizabeth Warren and the Federal Reserve: Dual Faces of Socialism
By Jeffrey Mazzella
President Trump often warns the nation about the perils of encroaching socialist policies from the political left, resolving that, “America will never be a socialist country.”
Despite the President’s admonition, socialistic policies remain a constantly threatening tide against our prosperous but ever-vulnerable U.S. economy. Paraphrasing Ronald Reagan, freedom is never more than one election away from extinction.
That threat only became more salient in recent days, as Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Massachusetts) became the new odds-on favorite to challenge President Trump.
Senator Warren’s array of proposals would cut to the very core of what it means to be an American. Among her panoply of destructive proposals, for example, is recently drafted legislation to empower the Federal Reserve to operate its own real-time payments system. That would completely upend the fundamental relationship between the federal government and our personal finances.
By way of background, real-time payment systems certainly provide important benefits for our economy, facilitating digital, electronic, virtually instantaneous consumer and business financial transactions that revolutionize payment efficiency and cost-effectiveness in our digital age. There’s only one problem: the private sector already effectively serves that need. The Clearing House currently operates a functional system linked to half of all U.S. checking account volume, and has done so since 2017.
On July 24, Senator Warren introduced legislation intended to “clarify that the Federal Reserve has the existing authority to build a real-time payments system and requires the Fed to implement its own process.”
Note that deliberate use of the word “clarify,” which signals that the Fed has never in reality had this power before. Indeed, the Monetary Control Act of 1980 seems to prohibit the central bank from doing so. Nevertheless, Warren’s bill would legislatively empower the Fed’s unchecked ambitions, allowing the central bank legal cover to conduct real-time payment operations.
Even more alarmingly, however, the Federal Reserve appears ready to jump in regardless of what happens to her bill. On August 5, the Fed announced its own intent to launch a new central bank-operated real-time service.
Although hardened socialists like Warren never encounter a government centralization they don’t like, the rest of us know that bureaucracies like the Fed don’t claim a history of doing things well or on time. Delays, accidents, and spiraling unanticipated cost almost always become the norm.
In fact, we’re already witnessing that phenomenon.
During a late September Senate Banking Committee hearing on the topic of real-time payments, Senator Doug Jones (D-Alabama) confirmed that the Federal Reserve’s real-time payments system is already falling into a downward spiral of inefficiency. After asking a representative from the Federal Reserve whether they have any benchmarks in place to complete the project, which they anticipate completing by 2024, the official ducked the question, eventually confirming that they don’t.
As with healthcare or any other product, consumers shouldn’t be stuck with just one bad public option. That’s why we must ensure that the Fed doesn’t monopolize the real-time payments industry, as it has with so many others.
Unless more free-market advocates in Washington interrupt this effort, however, that very well may occur.
During that same Senate hearing, Senator Pat Toomey (R-Pennsylvania) discovered that, due to the central bank’s announcement, fewer consumers have access to real-time payment services. Responding to Toomey’s questioning, a witness admitted that the Fed’s proposal has created a chilling effect on the private marketplace, with private companies holding back and afraid to invest in technology that could be rendered useless by the Fed’s intervention. As a result, those currently without access will be forced to wait even longer to become connected to a real-time payments system.
The Trump Administration has the power to investigate the potential negative effects of the Fed’s planned action.
According to former Office of Management and Budget (OMB) economist Ike Brannon, the Congressional Review Act authorizes the OMB Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs to review any significant new regulatory action before it is proposed. And since the Fed initially bypassed running its proposal by OMB, Director Mick Mulvaney’s office can and should require accountability by examining the process.
Specifically, OMB can provide stability and certainty to the real-time marketplace by outlining the consequences of the Federal Reserve’s actions – the costs and potential pitfalls. That’s the only way to ensure that the central bank does not make more serious bureaucratic mistakes that greatly affect the health of the economy that the Trump administration has helped rejuvenate.
President Trump rightly cautioned the American people against falling into the trap of socialism, and now he possesses a perfect opportunity to make good on that commitment. There’s no reason to give Elizabeth Warren, government bureaucrats, and other socialists a big centralized-government victory just as election season begins.
Instead, the Trump administration must use its authority to protect American consumers and our free-market economy.

2020 Dems Selling Shots of Hemlock Tea
By Geoffrey P. Hunt
Beckoning voters to blithely transit across an active minefield, the 2020 Dem presidential strivers exhort a bizarre nihilism where voters are expected to sign on for their own demise.
The 2020 Democrats are not content with showering would-be voters with a prelude of lies, indignities, depravities, promised incarcerations, and oppression. The Dems expect voters will enter the polling chamber to pledge allegiance to a suicide pact.
It’s self-immolation or bust.
The Dems expect urban poor black voters to reject any prospect of safe neighborhoods, to belittle economic opportunities, to protest crackdowns on drug traffickers, to countenance endless street killings, and to invite illegal alien gangs, while disarming cops on the beat.
There is nothing in any of the 2020 Dem pitches that speaks to reducing crime, increasing jobs, and improving day-to-day living conditions in urban America except blaming white supremacy and institutional racism. Democratic elites campaign for emptying prisons, subsidizing disease and mental illness-ridden homeless, and bestowing welfare riches on illegal aliens, while the urban poor citizens enjoy nothing but malignant neglect and contempt.
Meanwhile the 2020 Dems pledge trillions of someone else’s money for “fixing” the climate change hoax, but can’t clean up Dem-run cities from piles of human feces and pools of urine on the streets. Rats -- dead and alive -- are rampant in rent-controlled subsidized housing, piles of garbage are everywhere, and schools function as temporary prison-like holding cells.
How appealing to the inner-city poor -- vote for more suffering and degradation.
The 2020 Dems expect all voters to reject a vibrant fossil-fuel energy economy, replacing it with dreamy visions of wind, solar, and electric batteries fueled by star dust and intermittent zephyrs where houses, apartments, and appliances would be unaffordable; where all forms of transportation, except bicycles and shoe leather express, would be contraband; where an idle electric grid would render third-world efficiency and reliability the best case scenario. No heat, no food, no medicines, no water, no sewer. No brains. Plenty of disease, despair, and death.
The Dems expect voters to gleefully forfeit their private property, including guns, or acquiesce to a government expropriation, embrace abject poverty, adhere to somebody else’s speech code, and accept failed state anarchy where Venezuela and California are the most recent role models.
The Democratic front-runners, presumably Biden, Warren, and Sanders, serve up a toxic brew of incoherence, totalitarianism, and economic stupidity. Bernie touts Medicare for All, which means Medicare for none, accompanied by aggressive eugenics, death-panel rationing care for the elderly, and forcing both abortions and sterilizations on the unwanted, that is, anyone undesirable due to their economic station or racial identity -- the only means to make Bernie’s universal health care affordable.
Warren steals -- or more kindly “borrows/endorses” -- all of Bernie’s Medicare for All, then piles on with her statist harangues on drug companies, payday-lenders, stock trading, and social media, most of which make life at least bearable under progressive oppressions.
Warren’s proposed wealth tax on private property is boldfaced theft by the state, taking lessons from a long line of totalitarians -- Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Castro, and Chavez/Maduro. Her “democratic capitalism” is a government takeover of the means of production, and distribution. Yes, that’s communism, the most virulent form of socialism.
Warren would punish and seize accumulated wealth -- whether modest or sizeable -- widely distributed already through savings, pension funds, IRAs, and 401K plans benefitting tens of millions of regular Marys and Joes, to be siphoned and redistributed for another round of welfare state giveaways -- free college, free healthcare, free housing, debt forgiveness, free phones, free transit, open borders, and more until everybody else’s money runs out, and those Marys and Joes' lives would be forever ruined.
Joe Biden, laughably parading as the only commonsense Dem moderate, hasn’t uttered a coherent sentence in years, and in fact has disappeared from the campaign trail for days and weeks. How many exhibits do we need to prove Joe Biden has dementia? Or is he simply a first-rate fool?
Biden says social workers should visit black families at night to turn on a record player for their children; no one should be in prison for a nonviolent felony; gun magazines holding more than one round should be banned. Joe Biden’s inanities, egregious enough, pale alongside his newly found enthusiasm for his rivals’ idiotic pronouncements -- from killing fossil fuels to tripling spending on failed government schools, to gun confiscation, to banning Happy Meals, hotel shampoo bottles, and plastic straws.
Joe still thinks he’s vice president, and immune from scrutiny over his own corrupt yearnings spanning decades.
Finally, Dems expect their followers -- while marching to their own gallows -- to joyfully self-flagellate, confessing that they are racists and unwashed, unenlightened scum whose white privilege deserves disapprobation, and whose Christian faith is a superstitious virulent mirage with their souls meriting extinction.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump is an uncouth beast, morally bankrupt, an “existential” threat to civilization.
Well, some voters may be repulsed by Trump’s barroom banter style, but he hasn’t ordered a shot of hemlock tea, expecting you to drink it, unlike his adversaries.
