Everybody seems to gloss over this question and say stuff like "fed reserve is privately owned."

okay, I think everybody knows that now. My question is this:

Who is the federal reserve? If it is privately owned, than which privately owned institutions own or constitute the fed reserve? Is it the same with Bank of England?

In an article in the Times of India called "Make us part of the growth story, demand rural kids", 5000 children from over 8 staates participated in a rally "9-is-mine" campaign requesting 9% of the GDP to public expenditure on health and education.In the pullitzer prize winning book "The world is flat", the author says"India can have the smartest high-tech vanguard in the world, but if it does not find a way to bring along more of those who are unable, disabled, undereducated and underserved, it will be like a rocket that takes off but quickly falls back to earth for lack of sustained effort. “This is true because civilizations have perished in the past when there has been extreme disparitities of income and wealth. Rajiv Gandhi as one of India's strongest prime ministers said that only 15% percent of funds for poor actually reached them. What if this continues? Even urban Indians are fed up of poor governance but cannot do much about it most of the times. How will rural India cope?

Imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism. This is where the capitalist states develop aggression to maintain the economic system they have implemented, to dictate and have power in terms of decision making, to have influence and power over the world organisations. I think USA has been doing very well economically, but now other countries are coming up very strong in all departments.

Our we realy fighting terrorism or are we seeking attention from international society by trying to prove how powerful we are?
I think USA is beggining to be proved that a lot of countries under estimated are beginning to have their own programs and that is disturbing for any superpower country, especially if the influence and their personel in world organisations can be out voted. DESPARATION AND AGRESSION TO MAINTAIN STANDARD SET LEADS TO IMPERIALISM. ANY REASON TO JUSTIFY KILLING AND DISTRUCTIONS WILL BE USED TO SUSTAIN THE SET STANDARDS AND, CURRENT AND FUTURE PROGRAMS THEY WANT TO SUSTAIN!
