Abstract
On June 17, 2009 the Obama Administration released an 85-page white paper on federal regulatory reform. The corner stone of the proposed plan is an expanded role for the Federal Reserve Bank. The Federal Reserve Bank is an independent private bank created by Congress in 1913. This paper will present a critical review of the proposed expanded powers for the Federal Reserve Bank.
