Like I have been telling you

Journal by fustakrakich

Redirect all that Wall Street bailout money to the real economy, and all your infrastructure financing issues will go away. Doesn't kill interest entirely, but it's a good step

Playing with matches that could trigger a $30 trillion debt bomb is obviously something the Fed should avoid. Prof. Werner would probably argue that its policy mistake, like Japan’s in the 1980s, has been to inject credit so that it has gone into speculative assets, inflating asset prices. The Fed’s liquidity fire hose needs to be directed at local production. This can be done through local community or public banks, or by making near-zero interest loans to state and local governments, perhaps mediated through a National Infrastructure Bank.

The article is ok, the commenters are nuts.. I guess it's open mic nite

    WTF is Scheerpost? Is Robert Scheer another privileged white liberal who hates 'Murica? That's my first impression as I scroll through his site. Fekkin' Marxists and Globalists.

      Commit all the fallacies you want, but know it means you can't be taken seriously. GIGO, as they say in the world of coders :) Thanks for at least letting us know the truth means as much to you as any other MAGA moron! God, what an awful way to spend your last years...

            My dear Khan. You are still thinking in two dimensions. No wonder the world looks flat to you.
