Fed job approval rating lower than IRS: Gallup poll

With more and more Americans finally understanding that the Federal Reserve Bank is a PRIVATE FOR PROFIT institution and not a Federal Government Agency, Americans want accountability. Any Congressman or Senator who does not Cosign and vote for

H.R. 1207: Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2009 / 279 cosponsores

and

S. 604: Federal Reserve Sunshine Act of 2009 / 20 cosponsors

SHOULD be removed from office and never elected to any public office again.

(Senators Levin and Stabenow of Michigan, don't believe they could ever be voted out of office. But wait, isn't Stabenow's husband, Tom Athans THE Liberal TalkUSARadio Founder)?

NEW YORK (Reuters) – Americans think the Federal Reserve is doing a worse job than even the much-maligned Internal Revenue Service.

Only 30 percent of Americans think the Federal Reserve's Board of Governors is doing a good job despite the central bank's unprecedented efforts to battle a crippling recession, according to a Gallup Poll released on Monday.

That makes the Fed the worst reviewed of nine key agencies -- including the tax-collecting IRS -- the Gallup poll of more than 1,000 Americans between July 10 and 12 showed. Twenty-two percent of Americans said the central bank was doing a poor job.

"It is unclear how much of the Fed's image decline is due to the general decline in the country's economic climate, as opposed to specific perceptions about the agency's performance in carrying out its monetary responsibilities and possibly its role in the crisis surrounding U.S. financial markets," the pollsters wrote.FULL STORY
