“No Establishment author comes out and says this: ‘The Federal Reserve System possesses complete federal sovereignty, yet is beyond the power of any branch of government. It is legally more independent than the CIA. This is a great thing. Democracy has its limits, and should not be defended as a universally legitimate system of government.’ This is in fact what the entire American Establishment believes, but never, ever says in public. The Establishment says ‘independent,’ not ‘anti-democratic.’ They figure that the rubes — voters — will not catch on. They assume correctly.”
