    Will QE lead to inflation? Answer: QE is inflation. Inflation leads to rising prices. 2022 proving what we all knew. You can't print wealth/prosperity

    This 7 year old conversation encompasses the scale and depth of the problems we face on the tail end of the pandemic. Nothing seems to have changed except for how much extra leverage is behind the derivatives markets. We're facing record inflation like it's some surprise, but Volker addressed all of it in a matter of minutes here.... 7 years ago. What good is a canary in the coal mine if you're not heeding it's warning?

    This is not a business scaling problem. This is risk escalation... In terms of how much our economy depends on the financial sector, and how much we are exposed to a possible default, that is when speculation became a profitable business for mass consumption, without taking into account its possible consequences. and as an internal cause that can become a systematic risk, even when it is theoretically an extremely diversified portfolio.

    Who was the then recently prison released Harvard alumnus/insider who said, " three years in prison is an excellent corrective for three years at Harvard?" Anyone know?

    Now look at the banks now before the finacial reset. This just shows how much of a finacial scam and failure the u.a. dollar was . The federal reserve robbed the American people. Now they will switch to the fed coin and rob us again but will be able to track everyone's purchases . Also to shut anyone's finances off with the touch of the keypad .
  • Horrible host! He seems so fond of hearing himself talk! Wish he would just allow Paul Valcker to talk & why is Valcker's mic. set so low in contrast to the host?
