1. It was Scott Garrett - New Jersey. Interesting question about

what happens in 2012 to bonds currently backed by the U.S. - will the Fed have to create money if the government doesn't renew when the program (of taking over the Freddie and Fannie mortgages from 2008) expires?

I wonder if this is pre-planning for obstruction...
