Re: "IF I held the view, as a bull, that the Fed manipulated markets to diminish my wealth and observed that some bears asserted that the Fed manipulates the markets to prop up the markets...it would probably bring into question whether either one of us is right."

If you think for one minute that the markets are absolutely 100% free flowing without any influence by the FED as well as other special interest then your 50 years have been spent in a vacuum. I do not think that the FED's manipulation of the markets are totally successful because they are ever changing. But when the FED decides to come out on the days when government information is slightly leaning towards the negative and then add to that negative like on Thursday past, and then stay absent on positive days like Friday then suspicions should be increased of their attempted manipulations!

Just because they are not always successful does not mean they haven't and will not try and keep as much as they can of the masses from becoming independently wealthy. For God sake man why do you suppose they tax and penalize early retirement?
