This, I believe, is a fallacy. The Fed is a government entity because it has governmental power (i.e. a monopoly on issuing currency).

No. We, through our government, handed over to this private cartel the power to issue currency.

The Federal Reserve is a private banking cartel. They refuse to even publicly state who (which banks) owns them.

Well, look at it this way, private warlords become public officials when they win civil wars. Once an entity has governmental power, whether it takes it by force or by consent, it is a part of the government. Just because we don’t vote for the chairman does not mean he’s a private businessman.

Where do you get this stuff?
