Occam’s Razor or Bureaucrat's Beard?

Ah, the Federal Reserve—a masterclass in complexity over simplicity. In the United States, the Fed is like the opposite of Occam’s Razor, the philosophy suggesting the simplest solution is often best. Instead of simplifying the monetary system, it layers issues, supposedly providing 'economic stability' while arguably complicating matters further. The original point of contention swirls around its need for existence. Isn’t that just like a bureaucratic behemoth, doubling down on the unnecessary? The complexities it introduces into our monetary system seem less solution, more a perpetual Gordian Knot.
