Who Controls the Federal Reserve?

Submitted by L Ives, Mar 19, 2008 13:21

The owners of the Federal Reserve controls the Fed. The are not public but a group of private individuals/ large banking conserns.

The Federal Reserve is NOT a government agency but a private for profit bank. The Federal government only recommends the chairman.

The US constitution states that Congress should have control over the US money supply not a private bank which from it beginning in 1913 has debased the US currency the dollar so that now it is worht less than 95% of its value in 1913.

That devaluation is inflation.
