The poor, poor members of the Federal Reserve are going to find themselves CRUSHED UNDER THE JACKBOOTS of the Federal Government?
Hahahahahahahaha.
Now I know you can't read; nobody would post such absolutely melodramatic drivel if he could actually read what he just wrote.
Fed Banks receive numerous benefits at the expense of Federal taxpayers, including insurance rates on their instruments that nobody else can get, and short-term interest rates that make it nearly impossible for them to ever lose money. [Although somehow, some of them still manage to.]
They can verify the current payout on a bond instantly. I can do that on my computer at this very second with any bond I own. Perhaps you're surprised to learn that computers are actually capable of mathematical calculations, and do not exist merely so you can post idiotic piffle on web sites. If that's the case, I apologize. The online verification and calcuation has been available for about 15 years. Next time do a little research before posting nonsense.
The bank is simply floating themselves a loan at my expense because the government allows them to get away with that, among many other abuses. If you don't think that makes the symbiotic relationship between the central bank and the Federal government part of the Apparat you don't understand politics, government, or economics very well, if at all; as your silly, over-the-top defense of the Three Card Monty dealer known as the Federal Reserve proves quite well. The Fed's incestuous relationship with both the Treasury Department and the economic policy making branches of government make it a de facto player in everything our government does.
This isn't Andrew Jackson's government, and it isn't Andrew Jackson's bugaboo Bank of the United States. I only wish it were.
Give it up. If they aren't government employees, then they aren't government employees.
