And somehow we ended up with the corrupt federal reserve.

It wasn't an accident 1913 they planned and created the "Private" Federal reserve Act, created a bank owned by the rich that prints unlimited money w/o oversight and lends them to the American Government with interest. It was never out of the public interest, it was designed to create debt we can't pay back. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Reserve_Act
Then in 1971 Nixon took us out of the gold standard so we can print more money out of thin air. We know the what happened to the last guy who tried to fight the Private Fed and get us back to the gold standard.
Edit:Forgot to mention Jekyll Island where private bankers secret/covertly met to design the Federal Rserve Act. http://www.let.rug.nl/usa/essays/general/a-brief-history-of-central-banking/aldrich-plan-%281910%29.php

The gold standard was pretty shit, to be perfectly honest. That's nothing to complain about.

It's not too late to fix it, but at this point it's going to be ugly and painful either way.

The US government is in bed with the banks. The more laws and programs created by a large government the more we are enslaved to the banks.
