Right. You just can't show me.
Are you suggesting that the profits of privately owned member banks are rolled into what the Federal Reserve reports as profit? You need a link for this?

I have tons of curiosity, just no time to figure out what idiotic conspiracy site gave you that fake tidbit of info.

Everything I've either written, or directly cut and pasted from other sites, is easily verifiable by anyone. Nothing I've said indicates any conspiracy. Maybe you need to go tilt against some gold bug windmills to make yourself feel better.

Yup. Except according to this, Fed employees can enroll in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program. You can check for yourself, at the .gov website I linked.

That is very interesting. I wonder how that works. It says quite clearly on a Federal reserve bank site that workers are not government employees. Are Federal Reserve Bank employees considered government employees? No. Employees of the Federal Reserve Banks are not government employees. They are paid as part of the expenses of their employing Reserve Bank.

Sure did, government agency.

Here is a list of all government agencies listed by the Office of Personnel Management. The Federal Reserve isn't found on that list. In Bloomberg L.P. v. Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Reserve in part argued that it was not subject to a FOIA request because it was not a government agency. In JOHN L. LEWIS vs. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA the district court ruled (in part) that the FRB was not a federal agency and it's employees are not government employees.

Are you talking about the 12 Fed District Banks, or the bank down the street that is a member bank?
