The Fed is a racket at heart, a con game writ large — what else can you call an organization with the exclusive privilege of printing money in the trillions and handing it over to friends?

You must be root to make the chroot call, and you should quickly change to non-root (a root user can escape a chroot environment, so if it's to be effective, you need to drop that privilege).

This privilege is needed to call the UNIX operating system APIs to authenticate or to collect user and group information.
