So you don't understand anything about the Federal Reserve or it's function but because an article on Russia Today suggests there's a scandal of some kind, well .... then there's obviously a scandal. That's some kind of critical thinking.
That in a nutshell is the problem with many OWS 'supporters'. They don't know what the hell they're talking about but they're outraged just the same.
(Not to suggest that there aren't real problems, particularly in the USA, but real problems, and perhaps some potential solutions are lost in all the noise.)
