The private banking institution known as "The Federal Reserve" that has operated in near total secrecy since 1913, is coming closer to an audit. Will it happen?

LINKBill to audit Federal Reserve passed in committee

They will be, using an independent auditing firm operated by "The Federal Reserve"

Most people think that the federal reserve is a government bank.

The Fox guarding the chicken coop! The Fed Is private and has been since conception on Jekyll Island in 1913 shortly before the federal reserve act was passed through congress Christmas time of the same year when most of the senators were home with their families for the holidays. If the Fed gets to audit itself we will never be freemen...Ever!

I doubt it will happen,. Geithner and the gang who robbed the American taxpayers will not allow anything that is going to negatively affect Bernanke and his gaggle of fools over at the Fed to happen. The Americans have 15 TRILLION dollars to roll over in the next 3 years and no one wants any more bad press then they already have. Ron Paul and Friends are deluding themselves if they think they will actually get a bill passed to get it done. The American economy right now is too fragile to take the kind of publicity for enough votes in either the House or the Senate to pass this type of Bill. Shoot they have not even audited Fort Knox in over 50 years and that is the U.S. Bullion Depository, some think that it is really empty, I would not go that far but our $15 million missing in gold will be chump change should that get audited. Short answer no, but I could be wrong, if I were them I would not want to be audited either, but if I was a US taxpayer I would be screaming for it.
