  Jobs and Pointy Headed Bosses

  i often wondered what the exact flaw in human society is that propels those with a talent for bare-knuckled, marquess of queensberry be damned office politics over those whose talents lie with the actual "nuts and bolts" of a project.. but i know it's a phenomenon that almost every single person in a technical field has experienced at one time or another.. when i've had the misfortune of working for an executive who really, truly doesn't understand the field well enough to set reasonable goals, i've tried to be philosophical about it.. when the executive ruthlessly drove the employees to go faster and faster and faster and then screamed obscenites when minor mistakes occurred, i've told myself that although it's unpleasent, it makes you stronger.

  when the executive fired people who burned out after a couple of years of this, i felt bad, but took it as a lesson.. when the executive fired people when he felt that their creative talent had simply been exhausted, i felt even worse and was just glad it didn't happen to me.. when the executive fired people who simply didn't have a brilliant idea to present him that day, i told myself that they should have known better than to ride with the boss.. maybe human beings need ruthless, egomaniacal ceo's like this.

  maybe most human accomplishments worthy of note had such a person behind them.

  I've had incompetent bosses, and true-egomaniac-asshole bosses, and favorites-only-and-merit-be-damned bosses. The first kind I can deal with OK, so long as they are fair and I am treated decently. The second? I might be willing to deal with it if I am really, really well paid, otherwise I go find a new job. The third? I go find a new job.

  Fed Reserve Act PDF

  http://www.llsdc.org/attachments/files/105/FRA-LH-PL63-43.pdf

  From your own PDF, ProdigalSon. Do you even read the crap you post? Page 4:

  Organization certificate, shall have power—

  ...To have succession for a period of twenty years from its organization unless it is sooner dissolved by an Act of Congress, or unless its franchise becomes forfeited by some violation of law.

  So the original Federal Reserve would have remained in existence until 1933, unless dissolved by an Act of Congress....NOT 2012.

  Or are you maybe quoting from the "secret original" draft of the Federal Reserve Act that was destroyed when the World Trade Center got taken out by secret nuclear demolitions?

  No. The charter was originally for 20 years. In 1927 it was changed to in perpetuity or until "dissolved by Act of Congress."

  Second. To have succession after February 25, 1927, until dissolved by Act of Congress or until forfeiture of franchise for violation of law.

  the world just lost a creative genius.

  Indeed. But millions are waiting to be born. I am sure this is what he would have wanted.
