Ron Paul: Auditing The Fed Would Lead To Ending The Fed

After Elon Musk endorsed Ron Paul leading an investigation into the Federal Reserve, Paul stated on X that 'Auditing the Fed would lead to ending the Fed.' He emphasized that increased transparency would reveal systemic issues, sparking calls for reform or dissolution. Comparing the Fed to USAID, Paul suggested both agencies lack transparency and accountability. Musk's support may amplify public interest in financial reform and decentralization.
In 2009, Ron Paul published End the Fed, a book that critiques the Federal Reserve and its control over the U.S. monetary system. Drawing from his experience as a congressman and advocate for free-market economics, Paul argues that the Fed's lack of transparency and manipulation of interest rates contribute to economic instability, inflation, and financial crises. The book calls for a return to sound money principles and highlights the dangers of central banking. End the Fed became a rallying point for those who support monetary reform and greater financial accountability.
