Bernanke Live Stream and Final Ron Paul Showdown Wednesday
Update…
This morning, Congressman Ron Paul will question Bernanke for the final time before retiring from Congress.
It might not be a surprise to find a smile on the face of Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke when he appears before the House Financial Services Committee Wednesday. It looks to be the last time he will have to face off against Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas).
While unforeseen events could always compel Bernanke’s return to testify, his delivery of his semi-annual report on the nation’s monetary policy may mark the final time Paul will have the chance to take swings at his least favorite institution, as the lawmaker is retiring at the close of the rapidly dwindling session.
Paul wrote the book on Fed-bashing — it’s called “End the Fed,” — and he plans to use his last chance to keep hitting the same notes he’s been hammering throughout his years in Congress. – The Hill.
