If there was just one interest rate and one policy set in Washington, then why do we even have branches of the Fed if they no longer act independently? For you see, when the Fed was created, the branches were to manage the capital flows. Each branch was independent and they would lower or raise the interest rate in their jurisdiction depend ding on the flow of money.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"fancybox image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.armstrongeconomics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/1915-Federal-Reserve-Bank-Note-Chicago.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-96813 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.armstrongeconomics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/1915-Federal-Reserve-Bank-Note-Chicago.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 773px) 100vw, 773px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.armstrongeconomics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/1915-Federal-Reserve-Bank-Note-Chicago.jpg 1502w, https:\/\/www.armstrongeconomics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/1915-Federal-Reserve-Bank-Note-Chicago-300x144.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.armstrongeconomics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/1915-Federal-Reserve-Bank-Note-Chicago-768x369.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.armstrongeconomics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/1915-Federal-Reserve-Bank-Note-Chicago-1024x492.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.armstrongeconomics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/1915-Federal-Reserve-Bank-Note-Chicago-600x288.jpg 600w\" alt=\"\" width=\"773\" height=\"371\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Even the currency it first began to print was done so by each branch.

We are hearing the same pitch of equality once again and Biden is going to take over the Fed and install his people. This will be the final alteration of the Fed making it entirely political to usher in this Great Reset. What was once an independent central bank, owned by the bankers to prevent taxpayer money from being used to bail out the banks where today they banks may own the Fed in name only, but the reins of power are political.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026click on the above link to read the rest of the article\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>People Blame the Federal Reserve &amp; Never Politicians Every now and again I get those stupid hate emails to blame the federal reserve and central banks for everything while NEVER once do they ever look at the history of central banks and how Congress has been manipulating the law changing the definition of what the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[5496,124,303,13793,5479,534,538,1577,3650],"class_list":["post-60431","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-economics","tag-armstrong-economics","tag-central-banks","tag-fed","tag-great-reset","tag-martin-armstrong","tag-monetary-policy","tag-money-printing","tag-politicians","tag-us-federal-reserve"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60431","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=60431"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60431\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":60432,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60431\/revisions\/60432"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=60431"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=60431"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=60431"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
