To be fair, FM&FM were privatized in the late 60's, but I agree with you. The bigger problem is government never ceding. In the Great Depression, they were needed. Once it was over, they should've been privatized and completely cut loose from the government. But, much like Kennedy's attempts to abolish the FED, once you give them something, they never let it go.
