Their staffs examine state member banks (national banks are examined by the staff of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency; insured nonmember banks are subject to FDIC examination), decide on granting loans to members, and carry out the routine banking functions for the federal government.
The Federal Reserve shares authority in some instances—for example, in approving bank mergers or in examining banks—with other federal agencies such as the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
This independence is partially ensured by the fact that the income and expenditures of the Federal Reserve banks and of the Board of Governors are not subject to the congressional appropriation process; the Federal Reserve is self-financing.

 Federal Reserve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Federal Reserve is financially independent because it runs a surplus, due in part to its ownership of government bonds.

The banks which had no part in the operation of the company whatsoever, the banks which made this money out of nothing are making more money from these industries than the people who work for the money, save the money, invested the money and risked the money to own those corporations.
On the banking side, however, when it's created out of nothing it's not spent by the banks it is loaned by the banks to you and to me and we spend it.
