The Fed is subject to oversight.

The organization that is devalueing your currency is called the US Goverment (Congress, Treasury, IRS, etc) which is spending like a drunken sailor on Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid and two wars.

The Fed has been around for almost a century. Did you just learn of its existence in the last year or so or have you always held such strident opinions in opossition to it? Every advanced economy has a Central Bank. All you are doing is inventing an issue to get all wound up about.
