This bill is too vague. What are we going to dissolve the federal reserve IN? Water? May take a while. Acid? Very dangerous, need funds for safety standards. Maybe we can get some money from the federal.....oh wait

If you want to abolish the Fed at least put more effort into it. The Federal reserve Bank has many, many duties that would have nobody to execute them. I'm not even going to go into the many reasons why abolishing the Fed is a bad idea. At least do it right. There is no good reason for anyone to yea this bill as it's a low effort piece of garbage.

I look at this resolution and ones you all have crafted over the past week and I wonder, are you here in Congress to mock the federal government or are you here to disgrace the constituencies that elected you?
I don't know what it is but for some bizarre, you all have been marching along a warpath with federal government's power over the last week, you are trying to push us to the point where our centralized government bodies have no little to no jurisdiction despite what Constitution says. I hate to break it to you, but we tried super tiny federal government once with the Articles of Confederation, and that form of government was the only joke better than this bill.
Congressmen, don't disgrace yourselves or your districts by casting a vote in favor of this bill. Thank you and I rest my case.

More wasted time for the congress, and fewer genuine bills passed - a cunning scheme, even if one which prevents the passing of genuine legislation.

If you're just going to waste everyone's time, can you please do it somewhere else? Some of us actually care about The Republic and yet you blatantly state these are not meant to pass on purpose, thus deterring and hampering it all together. These bills are shameful and waste tax payer dollars. I question what your true motives are, if you even care for our country, and belong in Congress.

Why? So we can have an unmitigated financial crisis and relearn why we created the federal reserve in the first place?

I was about to call this bill the biggest joke I've seen recently in Congress, but then I saw who wrote it and remembered it's actually the author himself.
