Glad you agree that they can influence but not control the money supply. Took you long enough.

No, you are not putting those words in my mouth. The FED can control the money supply if they so choose, just as I said. Doing so will probably cause adverse interest rate impacts, but the FED can pick a monetary aggregate measure and control it within about the same degree of precision with which it can be measured in the first place. MZM did not grow by $2T in the last 12 months without the FED taking active measures to make it grow by $2T in the last 12 months.
