.gov = government

The federal reserve governors and chairman, Alan Greenspan, are appointed by the president and serve terms. This smells like government to me.

nein. thats a common misconception in america. but the fed res does have considerable influence, far too much, in congress.

Of course they have influence, they are appointed by congress and the president for the purpose of influencing economic conditions to promote a stable economy. happy:

the government more or less fully controls the federal reserve, argueing whether it is "part" of the governement is moot.

I owned in that thread thanks.
