The Fed IS a privately owned bank. Last time I checked, it's real ownership is top secret due to national security. How very very appropriate, after all it's best not to know whos ripping you off.
If I might suggest a rather long book about banking, capitalism and the western civilization: Carroll Quigley - Tragedy And Hope
After reading this you'll pretty much be able to guess tha ownership of the Fed and a connect the dots on a hell of a lot more international affairs.
Have a nice day.
