Yes they did. But that part of the Constitution ceased to be 'taught' by the arm of government, 'public' education. But see as we have been warned to even inquire regarding a look see at the hidden books of the 'world's' bankers gets the accusation of committing the 'greatest' sin possible to be committed. I can use the term 'world's' bankers, because it was the head of the Fed that pronounced he had saved the world's economy.
I really 'feel' saved by the actions taken. The appearance of being a nonpolitical entity is forever gone.
I totally agree that the Fed is a “World” banking enterprise. Operates in secret not accountable to anyone!! That is downright scary!
