I find it troubling that the FOMC increases interest rates to tighten the money supply in the private sector in order to correct the over supply of currency due to government deficit spending. The Federal Reserve can’t control the supply and demand of the script on the international currency market, nor can it control the government spending dollars that do not exist. All the FOMC can control is the money supply available to US citizens. We get to suffer for the rampant spending of congress.

Get rid of the privately owned Federal Reserve System and have Congress coin and regulate the money as their supposed to do according to the Constitution. Your money is supposed to be backed by gold and silver not controlled by international banksters who have too much money and too much time on their hands who want to control us like cattle. We also need to throw people out that don’t belong here ( like terrorists ) and put the Infantry down on the border

I didn’t read your entire diatribe, but the Federal Reserve Board is controlling inflation by raising interest rates (The rates they charge other banks.)

I think the answer could possibly be two points as I can’t read this much info.
