All of this fancy talk confuses me. I guess I just have 2 questions:

1) Why doesn’t the government operate our national bank? It can print money, it could collect interest on loans and use that revenue to help fund its operations.

2) Why is there a pyramid and all-seeing eye on the back of my cash?

OK I’m ready for the answers now. I’m sure they will be very technical and full of details about public-private partnerships and boards of governors and regional banks, etc…
