Zeitgeist is shit.
The Fed isn't exactly private.
It's held accountable by the Government.
It's pseudo-private.
The best thing that could possibly happen would be for the Fed to be replaced by a completely private bank.
In the future
These may replace the Fed and the shitty US Dollar.
The Fed doesn't print money.
The Treasury prints money.
The Treasury doesn't create money.
The Fed creates money, but it's not interest free.
So many misconceptions of central banking and it tears me up inside!
