OK, Rande, how about the fact that employees of the Board of Governors receive health insurance benefits under the Federal Employees Health Benefit Plan.

I don't have a lot of time to devote to this today, so I am not going to look for any more clues for you. I showed you the laws, and either you know how to read the US code or you don't. When I have time I'll find you something easier to read.

There is no doubt that there is an overlap between the private sector and the public sector that is, as far as I know, unique in the government. There is no doubt that private interests are not necessarily public interests. But there is also no doubt that the Federal Reserve System is a creature of Congress. Congress does not create and regulate private enterprises, not in the sense of direct oversight. Congress does pass laws that regulate private enterprises, but the President doesn't appoint their directors nor does Congress approve them.

If you can point out any private enterprise whose directors are appointed by the US President - let me know.
