If the fed wants to be considered as a truly independant entity with no biases and favorites
then they need to be TOTALLY independant and cant just pick and choose whom they
want to support and screw the small investors.


You ever hear the old saw that if I owe you a thousand dollars it's my problem, if I owe you $100 million it's your problem?

The problem is that if the Fed had let LTC go bust, it could have had far reaching effects on the financial system of the entire world. Now maybe it would have all been fine, I wasn't terribly worried myself, but that was their call. Even if it was the wrong one, I don't think even the wildest explanation of these events can place the blame at the feet of the Fed. Sorry.
