11. Ain't it funny ...
The Federal Reserve Bank is a private financial organization that controls the American currency; and, by extention, the reserve currency of more than half the world, including OPEC.

As a private organization, it is allowed to be as political as it wants to be.

It's also funny that Alan Greenspan was once an economic Free-Enterprise fundamentalist, a part of Ayn Rand's little clique. But not as funny as him assuming control of the nation's money.

I'm not sure the term "whoredom" can describe this. It rises to the level of ... "Neo-Conservatism". (The old-fashioned Conservatives have bgeen complaining about the Fed since before WWII.)
