[QUOTE=ScatManDoo;2476406]The "Fed", or federal reserve is the central banking system of the United States. I smell "government agency", despite your silly assertion it is not. The World bank and Fed sometimes work with each other co-operatively, but neither controls the other.[/QUOTE]The Federal Reserve which is The central banking system is not a part of the federal government just as Federal Express package delivery is not part of the federal government. You could double check this before making statements that make you sound uneducated by searching the internet, going to a library, or phoning a friend with an IQ over 115.
The Federal Reserve was created by an ACT of Congress in 1913 just like every central banking system in every country around the world because The government has to give up the power of controlling the currency of a country. There are only 12 central bank locations in the US but they have also been granted the ability to regulate and partially control all comercial banks.
The Federal Reserve has a President appointed By the World Bank and has 12 board members, of which many are also board members of the World Bank and or the International Monetary Fund. The US government has no control of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Reserve can stop lending money to the US government anytime they wish. They can also jack up the interest rate anytime a country gets out of line, like Argentina which is currently experiencing a 35% interest rate.
I know this is a shocking revelation but Please check the internet or any other reputable source before making any more foolish comments about the validity of what is written here.
News media controlled by the people and paid for by our taxes so they can not be influenced would be similar to PBS or NPR. Although, we need to take it one step further and make it completely transparent to the public and also we need to start tax auditing all government employees and their family members and make those Audits public record. There should be no wealth or privacy for government officials.
My concept of removing manipulation of the wealthy on the government and news media is so far from the system in China that I can only assume one of two things.
You "ScatManDoo" are working with someone to spread disinformation or you really have no concept of world politics especially in China and the US.
Please people educate yourselves before speaking or sharing your opinions.
