Message | This proposal severely limits Lodamun's ability to control monetary policy and threatens to ruin the economic stability provided by the central bank. I urge all parties to vote against this reckless measure. Vote against inflation! Vote against a boom-bust economy! - Elisa Lalo, Finance Minister |
Date | 21:13:27, July 31, 2007 CET | From | Independent Republican Party | To | Debating the Anti Federal Bank Bill |
Message | Elisa Lalo is right. Numerous countries have national banks which control the government's funds and the distribution of money. |
Date | 02:37:13, August 01, 2007 CET | From | New Conservative Left | To | Debating the Anti Federal Bank Bill |
Message | There are numerous advantages to a Keynesian-structured economy. There are not so many to one without control. However, you will find more support for a bill that regulates the government's use of the bank as to prevent abuse in deficit spending. |
