“Rand Paul and Ron Paul, the dynamic duo of anti-Fed forces, invested a lot of time and money trying to get that legislation passed. But even if it reached Barack Obama’s desk, it would have been vetoed. Of course, the Fed pushed back against the legislation.

She also noted that passing the legislation might generate an inflation scare and cause interest rates to rise. One wonders if this was a subdued threat.”
