f7ben Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I mean last time we had a recession the Fed stepped in and fully mortgaged our future to prevent losses. Why won’t they do that now? It’s not like any of it’s real. Why won’t they spend eleventy trillion now to make sure everyone is happy and fat? What a fucking joke the entire financial system is.

Fed meddling and excessively low rates for FAR too long in conjunction with nearly $20T in covid stimulus fueled the super bubble we've seen since 2009 https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/FEDFUNDS look at our debt to GDP ratio, it's absolutely horrible. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/GFDEGDQ188S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I see some small changes, the 18pk I usually buy was $17.99 it's $18.49, handle of Captain was $26.99 it's $27.99 but buy 3 and get a $10 rebate by mail..so that's actually cheaper than before with the rebate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
