Get your money for nothin & your job loss for free

"The most valuable asset they have is their job."  -Neel Kashkari, President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis. Then he goes on to say that the odds of people losing their jobs is not remote. "What the Federal Reserve does is provide the blood supply for the body of our capitalist economy. And what happened in 2008 is all the veins and the capillaries and the arteries collapsed. So every financial function had failed. It had collapsed and we had to restore them."

Rather than hiring and building new facilities, these CEOs enriched themselves and the shareholders. Say it ain't so!"We're like a giant bloodsucker."  Unregulated shadow banking.  March 2020 and the D word: depression. "There's no barometer of moral hazard." The Fed points fingers at the state; the state points fingers at The Fed; and we are supposed to forget the incestuous relationship between them. "I'm a good person.
