And Greenspan carried his briefcase, which carried the data that ran the world because he was looking at freight car loadings, you know, how much the real economy was growing.

and then using his judgment on how to set interest rates.

So how did we get there?

I think in the Constitution, for one, the whole world had always been on a hard money standard, either gold or silver or shells on the beach.

They didn't really think in terms of there being a central bank of the United States.

One other thing from those days, they didn't have any concept that they were creating a government that could borrow trillions of dollars, or now we're at $40 trillion.

So they were hopeful of borrowing $1 million.

And so they didn't put in a size of government limit.

So that allowed all of this growth of government.

We still have no boundaries on size of government or size of the Federal Reserve.

So I think that's one of the legacies of Greenspan is he made it popular and he popularized it.

to the point where it's grown way beyond its ability to do its mission.

So we have to look at these task forces that they're setting out on now and think about whether those can accomplish really sweeping changes that are needed in economics to make this work better.

I've laid out those changes that we need to have a sound money foundation

for monetary policy.

That was the way it was in the constitution.

And we've lost that over the years.

And now we have the dollar.

In the constitution, they said it was Congress that sets the weights, the value of weights and measures.

That's a, that's a provision article one section eight.
