All dollars come from the Federal Treasury and, having been issued in the name of the citizens of the U.S., belong to all of us.
The only real question is how many accounts each dollar passes through before it gets into the hands of an individual person. The banksters prefer for that dollar to reach them first, via the Federal Reserve, so they can take a cut and lend it back to the Treasury for a guaranteed unearned income. Then, the Congress critters prefer for that borrowed dollar to be sent to their banker, insurance and corporate cronies back home, to be disbursed as jobs and bennies and to secure their own reelection.
There's an army of middlemen waiting with outstretched hands for a cut of every dollar without having to do any work. Of course they consider it unfair for dollars to be disbursed, for current service or as compensation for a lifetime, to citizens directly.
Working people are disdained by people who invest and whose vestments entitle them to be respected. They have a vested interest, which is, of course, different from naked greed.
But, we are making progress. In discussing the crushing weight of college student debt, Jon Stewart and Senator Elizabeth Warren made the point that while banks get free money from the Federal Reserve, students are forced to return more than they get. Never mind that the education they purchase may well be worthless in a society that's got little respect for book learnin'.
