The Federal Reserve System is a partial government organization, it was created by congress is the 1910's, the board of governors is appointed by the President, Federal Open Market Committee, and the 12 Federal banks also compose a large chunk of the membership. Now private banks and other councils also belong, but to say it is not a government organization is not true.
