It is no secret that limited-government proponents dislike the Federal Reserve, or “the Fed,” and the influence that this central bank wields. It attempts to “play God” in our economy by its control over monetary policy and almost always does far more harm than good. What could not be more secretive currently, though, is the way that the Fed operates. Fortunately, there is significant support in Congress for a bill -- the Federal Reserve Transparency Act -- that would require a Government Accountability Office (GAO) audit of the Fed.
