So, is there any way to restore freedom, and have the Fed return to the
limits of the Constitution?

The US has a fairly balanced system of checks and balances. Ultimately it
is the electorate who decides these things, however indirectly, and however
late and after the fact. Of course the SCOTUS decided that corporations
are people and now the bosses of industry are as free to throw money at the
electorate as anyone, except they have far more ...

This is hardly news. The original SCOTUS discussion of the
constitutional rights of corporations goes back to the mid1800s or so
when SCOTUS decided that the taking clause also included taking things
from corporations. The cases specific to the first amendment run back at
least to the early 1930s or so.
A scan of the Citizen's United opinion (and a quick find run on
person and personhood) did not find any mention of the word(s). I never
did get around to the concurring or dissenting opinions to see if the
word pops up lower in the decision food chain.
