Who owns the federal reserve bank in the US?

AnswerThe Federal Reserve Bank in the USA is a privately owned cartel: it is not a Government agency."Some people think that the Federal Reserve Banks are United States Government institutions. They are private monopolies which prey upon the people of these United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers; and rich and predatory money lenders."- The Honorable Louis McFadden, Chairman of the House Banking and Currency Committee in the 1930s"Most Americans are content with believing that the Federal Reserve is just another stuffy government agency that sets our interest rates and that is watching out for the best interests of the American people.

Instead, it is an independent entity within the government, having both public purposes and private aspects. As the nation's central bank, the Federal Reserve derives its authority from the U.S. Congress. It is considered an independent central bank because its decisions do not have to be ratified by the President or anyone else in the executive or legislative branch of government, it does not receive funding appropriated by Congress, and the terms of the members of the Board of Governors span multiple presidential and congressional terms.......[Above quote From "Federal Reserve Education Fed Basics" at http://www.federalreserveeducation.org/faq/topics/fed_basics.cfm ]
