So basically you are saying that it is ok for the Treasury to "subvert" our economy? Help me out here, which definition do you prefer on "subvert"?

subvert

–verb (used with object) 1. to overthrow (something established or existing).
2. to cause the downfall, ruin, or destruction of.
3. to undermine the principles of; corrupt.

Guess what ecrire, the Feds have been doing this for some time now. Subvert may be a good word in your mind but for me it reminds me of Adolf Hitler.

"They (the Fed) must be given leeway .... even if this subverts some legal principles"

So we agree we are talking fascism.

They must be given leeway to conduct their economy rescue efforts free from sniping and harassment even if this subverts some legal principles

Wow, that's an argument for a totalitarian blank check.
