Rande, thanks a lot for the information and the links. I did not know about all of that. The Federal Reserve's web site at federalreserve.gov certainly presents itself as a branch of the government.

As for the Federal Reserve Bank paying no taxes, that's messed up. It's akin to the Church paying no taxes, but being allowed to pull strings in government. With Bush's new Faith-based Economics, maybe the Federal Reserve Bank can actually merge with the Church! Then they can be manage charitable contributions as well as our money system.

By the way, you seem to want to distance your opinions from the word Conspiracy. I'm not sure why. I understand that there are some wacky unfounded conspiracy theories around, but that should not cast a dark shadow on ALL conspiracy theories. Many conspiracy theories are firmly rooted in hard fact. Many of yesterday's crazy conspiracy theories have been verified by declassification of military documents. The existence of the National Security Agency was considered wacky conspiracy theory for years.

Anyway, thanks for the info. I'm reading through that stuff now.

Dave
