[RT] GEN: DUMB FED QUESTION

Group-
 
Just how much money does the Fed have?  The 
amount of money in private hands such as savings accounts, investments, 
bank accounts, etc. can be quantified.  

 
Now; I believe that the Fed is comprised of 
privately owned banks who can use their various
moneary tools to either create or tighten the 
so-called money supply.  But; how much money do
they really have at their disposal?  Because 
of their ability to create money out of thin air using
the fractional reserve system; can one say that 
they have a virtually unlimited supply of money?
 
How does their supply or available money; measure 
up against the amount of money held in
private hands?  It seems that if the amount of 
money held privately dwarfs the amount of money
held by the Fed; their actions would have less 
effect on their regulation of the economy.  Or; do these
12 private banks have SO, SO MUCH money the dog can 
wag the economic tail?
 
I stay confused on subjects like this.  I 
suppose the reason I'm asking is that I just read that the
Government can seal our money in three ways:  
taxation, nationalization and inflation.  Somehow;
this ends up in the hands of the bankers; although 
I really don't quite understand the process.
Thanks for any thoughts or comments.
