What if I told you that there is a secretive organization that operates in America and influences geopolitics more than almost any other organization on earth? An organization that controls trillions of dollars—and affects many aspects of your daily life, whether you own a home, how much your mortgage is, and how much your money makes in the bank? An organization that holds its meetings in secret and that is ruled by people who, once appointed, are basically accountable to no one? Without meaning to sound conspiratorial, there is such an organization: the Federal Reserve. Its seven Governors are some of the most powerful people on earth.
