We should demand to know who the Stockholders are of The Federal Reserve.

Here is the list of large US chartered commercial banks.

Those with the following abbreviations under the charter column,
NAT=Nationally chartered member bank
SMB=State-chartered member bank

are members of the Federal Reserve.

Those with "SNM=State-chartered nonmember bank"

in the charter column are not members of the Federal Reserve.

Please don't tell anyone that I spilled this top secret list.

Thank you, Toddsterpatriot. You are a real patriot.

You realize, of course, that you've ruined a nice conspiracy theory? If you are right, those who believed in that theory will now have to read a book instead of spewing defamation.

i.e. are you claiming that ‘member’ = ‘owner’?

While we're sharing information about the Federal Reserve.

Look at page 12 of 'Purposes and Functions": "Member banks must subscribe to stock in their regional Federal Reserve Bank in an amount equal to 6 percent of their capital and surplus, half of which must be paid in while the other half is subject to call by the Board of Governors. [i.e. remains on the various banks balance sheets]
...
Member banks receive a 6 percent dividend annually on their stock, as specified by law, ... Stock in Federal Reserve Banks is not available for purchase by individuals or entities other than member banks." [I particularly like that guarantee by law of 6% interest part]

The money paid to the treasury is after the above mentioned 6% and 'operating expenses'.

The Federal Reserve is the embodiment of Marx's plank #5, in that it has a monopoly over credit.

I have given your name to the Illuminati Central Committee your days are numbered. Right now it is busy deciding which country to devastate with the next attack of the Earth Quake Machine. A bitter quarrel amongst the Committee has erupted whether it will be Iran or Turkey.

Toad are you a card carrying member of the Federal Reserve, or just a low life paid shill spreading disinformation?, frigging schmuck!

So toddster, tell us again how great free trade is?
