I don't see anything remotely 'funny' about woman being serious about being respected.

Obviously you never dealt with woman respectively.  I've had many female teachers, family members, judges, PO's, all sorts of female authority.  It's not funny to laugh at them when they are being serious.

In fact it can get you into prison.

She just had an open floor to question Federal Reserve Chair Powell last week.

Powell is technically one of the most powerful men in the world when it comes to monetary/economic policy. It was her chance to drill him on monetary policy, instead she played like a good little girl with rehearsed softball questions. She's a political tool and nothing more.

When you have no agency, and no control over the choices of your elected representatives your only choice is to poke fun at them.

The train wreck is such a disaster if you don’t laugh you’ll cry.

The left used to laugh at the religious right all the time especially when they held power. As soon as the left took power their sense of humor went straight out the fucking window.

They’re now nothing but authoritarian dictators, and they won’t even let you laugh at their ridiculous stupidity. Keep tightening that grip on control, the tighter you hold, the further it will slip.

“First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”

I just want sanity. Politics has all become this horrible freak show. If these four could just chill, and not be crazy, and let aTrump be crazy they would probably win.

I think a lot of people just want sanity at this point. Sanity is not communism.

Laughing at the madness is surprisingly effective. It doesn’t work on everyone. Most of the time though if someone does something stupid and they get laughed at they usually adjust their behavior accordingly. I do, most people do.

I mean yeah sometimes it makes you angry, but that is still new information that you can take into account and then the next time you’re.in a similar situation you have that to think back on.

Many times I am very grateful for being laughed at because it lets me know what is appropriate and in what contexts.

Politics has almost always had an evil somewhere.  America lacks an evil to collectively go after, for the time being.

That is one reason Republicans try to start wars so often.  It detracts from domestic issues that right wingers call political correctness.

They also lost Vietnam because of that.

I actually looked forward to see what AOC was going to do under those conditions.

There's plenty of tough questions to ask Powell in that hearing and one doesn't have to go for the kill. She did what was in the best interest of AOC, and that was playing ball. 

Her supporters are too unsophisticated too understand the opportunity she had and why she caved.

It’s just another brief entry in the voluminous (and still growing) public record displaying what a godawful POS Trump is.

Seriously, after a decade of ultra low interest rates and you even have to ask that question?

To be fair to Powell, the markets and economic conditions through fiscal policy dictate the direction of interest rates, not the Central Banks.  Powell didn't bring down the 10 year bond from 3.25% to 2% in 9 months, the market did. Now Powell has been given the green light to cut rates, as we are likely to head back to 0%.

That’s not an answer.



Income inequality rose the fastest between 1980 and 2000. A period corresponding to historically high interest rates. The relatively low interest rates seen in the 2000s corresponds with less rapid growth in inequality.

The fact is low interest rates makes credit cheaper, which is a benefit to lower income people who do not have savings and need to use credit to build wealth. Higher interest rates makes credit more expensive and benefits people who have wealth and earn interest on that wealth. It’s kinda a no brainer, and I’m wondering why your understanding of basic economics is so terrible.

But in the real world, there are far more important reasons explaining the wealth gap.

I think your chart kind of makes my point, when did the bull market in bonds begin?  1980.

You do realize that the working class peasants don't always have access to credit?  And if they do, they don't always have access to low rates (student debt, credit card debt)?

I'm not stating low interest rates are the main cause for the inequality, but it plays at least one part of the total puzzle. Obviously, deflationary policies (global trade and immigration) bring interest rates lower and create the inequality as well.

Also, if the 1% use the vast majority of the credit from the low interest rates, then who benefits the most?

The 1% are the ones making the loans

Mortgages are probably the most obvious example of credit that is much more in reach to low income people when rates are low. Mortgage rates are tied very closely to the fed rate.

That’s true, but you still need a 30% down payment for that mortgage depending on your credit rating and all the rest. With ultra low interest rates saving is disincentivized because you won’t make any money from interest on it. Not only that but it will get eaten away with inflation.  I think our incentive structure is completely upside down right now and saving should be encouraged more than cheap credit. Especially if the Fed is printing the value of everyone’s money into oblivion.

Credit and debt is a wonderful tool for those that are educated. Like any other tool without proper education or training you can easily hurt yourself with it. I think the school system should teach accounting and financing as part of their core curriculum as well as the differences between assets and liabilities rather than just dropping a 401k onto everyone and hoping there isn’t a market crash when they are about to retire.

Remember we’ve only been off the gold standard since 1971. I think we should go back onto the gold standard. That was at least something tangible that anchored the dollar. Without any anchor now they can just print the shit out of it. I saw the chart earlier but without looking back to see what happened to wealth inequality after 1971? After we went off the gold standard.

Oh sorry I just looked back at it that wasn’t wealth that was I come. Still, I think a gold standard would help the lower income more because the 1% always end up getting the first cut of the newly printed money. There’s a long history of empires going off of the gold standard and it hasn’t ended well for any of them. Crypto also adds a whole new variable to the equation as well.

If you have a problem with a dollar off the gold standard why the fuck would you have any interest in cryptos? Talk about not being backed by anything.

I never said that I did. I just said it throws a whole new variable into the equation. Like it or not it doesn’t appear to be going anywhere.

It's backed by byte ownership.  Pretty much a lot of the world, is becoming owning bytes of information.

Trump wants to weaken the dollar.  This is what I read. There's been other news stories about the burger equation and weakening the dollar.

They say the dollar is too strong.  Thing is I think it's inflated.
