The FED needs to be shut down and the Government must control its own money not some unrepresentative globalist Cable . Their days of controlling governments are over. Trump was voted in to Drain the swamp and the swamp is world wide but he is doing just what he promised to do about the only President that has ever even tried to do what they promised to do. And all this right in front of our own eyes.. What a sight to behold..

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the government already controls the money. The Fed does not write the laws that control fractional reserve lending.

Yes, the Fed uses those laws to funnel the wealth of the entire country into the pockets of the 0.1%. But lawmakers like Trump could shut that down in a heartbeat by ending fractional reserve lending. And yet he isn't even talking about that, and never will.

You can tear the Fed down to the foundations, it won't change the fractional reserve machine that sucks up the wealth of working Americans. Trump wants that machine working for him, that's all.

If he wanted to help you keep your wealth, he would be changing laws to shut down that machine, instead of trying to run it for his own benefit.

$36,000,000,000,000+ in debt
$500,000,000,000+ interest payments
Currency not backed by gold, has arbitrary value attracted to a piece of paper
Now that arbitrary value attached to a piece of paper is mostly attached to elections in the form of 1's and 0's
They get richer, you get poorer
Can't investigate them because that would threaten "their independence"
And people still defend them
