The Fed system is a hybrid Private/ Public entity that supposedly is under Congressional oversight but no one outside the Fed can audit it...there is zero transparency with this “agency” which proves that our so-called democracy is a sham...this is corporate “too big to fail” banker socialism (profits are private, losses are socialized)...a private monopoly whose product is OUR MONEY...would it surprise anyone that foreign banks and foreign families own large swaths of Federal Reserve Member Banks stock...?

Yes, it would be a big surprise. There are 12 regional Fed banks, and the private banks that are members of the Fed own stock in their particular regional bank. Only those private banks can own stock. That stock cannot be traded or sold.

Close, but no cigar.

Does the Federal Reserve ever get audited?

Yes, the Board of Governors, the 12 Federal Reserve Banks, and the Federal Reserve System as a whole are all subject to several levels of audit and review:

nothing about our money system can be trusted...it is all based on faith of one form or another...it is a fiat money system that has bought up all the worlds’ gold with worthless paper money...and someday, maybe soon when hyperinflation hits there is gonna be huge trouble, AGAIN...and AGAIN and AGAIN...

think Weimar Republic, Argentina, and other places around the world where the predatory central bank system goes....we are on to their phoney and exploitative methods and you know about it too...don’t try to pretend that it is all on the up and up...anybody who knows anything about them, knows they are all crooks, big time...

You just keep going on and on with your conspiracy theories. Show that one makes no sense and you have another "but.." to introduce another one.

The Fed is what it is. The people running it think that they know that what they are doing is right for the country. They lack adult supervision because only the Congress has that authority, and Congress is clueless about the whole issue and won't take responsibility. This is not about plots, it is about government incompetence. Only Congress can correct the problem, and they have neither the will nor the competence act.

You are right, Congress is just as clueless as the American people when it comes to the operations of the Fed...frankly, I know very little about it myself and I think that shows...

..it is an intimidating subject because of all the technical jargon, financial instruments and entities involved...too much for people attempting to look at the subject from the outside inward and still understand anything about what really goes on while handling trillions and trillions of dollars.

It appears that at one time, 25% of the world’s gold was kept at the Fed building at 33 Liberty, New York..

..BUT I DISAGREE WITH YOU that the people running the FED think that what they are doing is right for the country...they KNOW it is a ponzi-scheme system built castle of cards that they are desperate to unwind, retool, revamp, whatever you might call it...

it simple can’t go on like this with the United States being TRILLIONS in debt and that debt growing geometrically, it is a fraudulent system because they have the ability to create money out of thin air through the Mandrake Method of fractional reserve electronic credit building...the whole system is a sham and must collapse of its own internal contradictions..

..those who get out early and convert their dollars to tangible hard assets will be much better off, than those left holding the bag AGAIN,...a colossal, cynical game of financial musical chairs...HOW CAN THAT BE GOOD FOR THE COUNTRY...?

We need the Federal Reserve System like a hole in the head.

Trump is calling them out, same as Irv Homer and Ron Paul did before.

Case in point The Great Depression.

Meanwhile, they promise not to do that in our mouth again.
