I accidently voted no. but yes the Federal Reserve is run by private bankers. It should alteast be nationalized if not abolished all together.

Yes.  I'm not a subscriber to the Big Fed Conspiracy, but if Congress is willing to delegate branch-like powers to an institution it should be forced to be subject to branch-like checks and balances.  

Unless good God-fearing free trade fiscal conservatives run it, of course, then auditing is pointless activism by our dumbfounded liberal friends.

Sure. But is it something I passionately care about? No.

Absolutely, if not abolished. It's sad to me that we have an economic system in which every dollar in our economy is printed at interest by a private banking institution. Our money comes with an automatic debt that ensures that we'll never be able to pay off the national debt. The federal reserve has a large hand in this.

Yes and some of its structure and rules should be changed. However, I agree with over 200 years of Federalist-Whig-Republican thinking that a national bank organization is necessary, thus I oppose ending the Fed.
