So what's the Federal Reserve, you might ask? Well, the Federal Reserve is, in short, it's the central bank of the United States, and it's the organization that prints the money, that creates the money, that's where our dollars come from, like if you take a dollar bill out of your wallet, and you look at it, across the top, it says Federal Reserve Note, so the Federal Reserve is in charge of overseeing the supply of money, the supply of dollars, dollar bills, in the United States, it's the central bank of the United States, that's what central banks do, central banks issue currencies, they issue the national currency, now every country in the world, with the exception of just a tiny handful, has a central bank, Canada has a central bank, Great Britain has a central bank, you know, the Bank of England, you've got the European Union has a central bank, it's just called the European Central Bank, you have the Japan has a central bank, the Bank of Japan, the BOJ, sometimes it's called, China has a central bank, it's the People's Bank of China, Australia has a central bank, any country in the world, major countries, minor countries, it doesn't matter, they all have central banks, I can say with very few exceptions, I think you count on one hand the number of countries that don't have central banks, I mean, it's just overwhelming, it's a worldwide system, well anyway, the central bank, it's kind of this 500 -pound gorilla in the room, the activities of the Fed, and the Fed is just a shorthand way of talking about the Federal Reserve, the Fed, the activities of the Fed affect the lives of every single person, not just in the United States, but really in the entire world, because the US dollar is the world's reserve currency, so the activities of the Fed have profound implications for everybody, not just Americans only, but really for everybody in the entire world, and yet, you know, here's this profoundly important institution, and yet neither political candidate seems to want to talk about it, not Donald Trump and not Joe Biden.
