    If the federal reserve makes the money- that’s basically a product. If this is a capitalist society- there should be other “distributors” of money like products that can also be used. So the federal reserve is a monopolistic “money” making machine and that goes against the free market principles of capitalism…

    Sometimes maybe it's a consumer problem, poor saving habits and more spending. Decreased short term lending rate should only be just that short term, in order to help your life get back up. Not borrow money and SPEND em on liabilities/unnecessary things.

    Good explanation. However, you forgot to mention how the Federal Reserve intentionally manufactures economic crises, so that banks and hedge funds can buy the public’s assets at a discount.

    All sounds so wholesome. If the Fed' has these tools, and if they know how to use these tools in order to best serve the economy, then how come the economy is buggered to an unprecedented degree?
    Why also, is inflation described here as the consequential symptom of price rises, with no mention whatever of the money creation that is the real cause of inflation?

      To help keep the economy from crashing, and (as ridiculous as it sounds) prevents some predatory / sketchy bank behavior because they need to be able to back up all their actions with a larger body.

      @@TehBeavs yeah, i understand that argument. I’m learning about Libertarianism and it seems that a lot of educated / reputable scholarly libertarians want away with the Fed reserve and I have yet to understand that side of it. I need to learn more about that argument because if educated economists who are libertarian want away with it there must be some plausible explanation as to why that would benefit the economy.

    #1 the Fed does not “control” the money supply. the money supply expands and contracts every day through bank lending
    #2 the reserve requirement does not constrain bank lending because banks can always get reserves (at some cost). temporarily going below the reserve requirement doesn’t trigger any alarm bells
