High drama in Washington, D.C. today, especially if you're a fan of presidential politics, Fed policy, or both.
The venue: the semi-annual Monetary Policy Report to the Congress, given by US Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke.
In one corner, US congressman and Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul.
Best line: "The Fed is going to self-destruct when the money's gone."
In the other corner, Fed Chairman Bernanke.
Best line: "Good to see you again, Congressman Paul."
Yes, both were ready to rumble, in a classic wonkfest-death-match.
Of course, there's video.
Prepare yourself for a lot of sharp policy elbows, some inflation rage, a discussion about parallel currencies, the appearance of a silver coin, and – naturally – the evocation of Austrian economist Friedrich Hayek.
