Anonymous has put out a call for help in creating a lawsuit against the Federal Reserve.
Regardless of what you think about Anonymous and whether this is anything more than cheap propaganda I was wondering if such a thing is even possible.
The Fed is an independent bank. They pay for their own operations and the government does not get a direct say in its operations.
Still, I can’t imagine that Joe Citizen can sue them for their actions as the Fed would be perpetually litigating an untold number of cases.
Is the Fed protected by stature from being sued? Would it be a standing issue that no one could meet to sue them? Something else? Or are they theoretically open to lawsuits?
