    Let me get this straight, the US controls and funds all kinds of governments around the world but they wouldnt control the fed? “But its a private company!!!” Sure it is, its totally not completely controlled by the government…

      It’s not and they have proven as much every single election cycle by not giving into political pressure.

        Thats funny because both sides are EXACTLY THE SAME with regards to the fed, and its robbing from the poor and middle class. Literally only a couple people in the two main parties even say anything about how bad the fed is. If you dont know anything about a subject, it would be best to learn about it, but at least dont argue like you know about it.

            Uh… you were the one that started talking about how “The fed is independent” not me. You literally had to ask me about the housing requirements, I am the one who does real estate and do this stuff for work.

                You dont actually know why housing is expensive and its not “basic safety regulations and zoning”. Of course I brought up monetary policy is the other leg of why housing is expensive. People like you are the reason its so expensive because you keep voting the same way.
