Most think the Fed is some sort of beneficial Government organisation.Forceful taking from private citizens does work to an extent.
Chavez made it "work" ... till it no longer "worked".
Yes I agree it can be done right up till it collapses like it always does.
As to how can The Fed own a share of US GDP. By you posting here (unless you are a Socialist bot) I assume you can read, right? The news media has been all over it for years and years. Trillions of treasuries on its balance sheet bought with "printed money" the socialist way, which fueled the stock market. Many traders park treasuries in a trading account to backstop their stock and or futures trading. The Fed likewise. Also previously there was Maiden Lane I and II. Last but not least Fed rules were changed either during or after the last economic crisis to allow them to be able to buy anything. Annnny thing.
But who knows really how much and what percent they do buy. They answer to no one. Another thing ruling Socialists do.
It is not at all. It is privately owned since the big bankers put it together decades ago.
Are these guys interested in Socialism or the welfare of the people ? Not likely. They are interested in pocketing even more money.
How do they do this ?
By the cycle of pumping and then dumping at the top.
Where is the current cycle ?
Now that is the million dollar question.
Don't expect me to answer that one for you.
