LARGE PRINT EDITION More at LargePrintLiberty.com Where did this thing called the Fed come from? Murray Rothbard has the answer here -- in phenomenal detail that will make your head spin.

It was founded by two groups of elites: government officials and large financial and banking interests. Rothbard adds a third critical element: economists hired to give the scheme a scientific patina.
