Snake Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 2 minutes ago, Jimmy Snacks said: I agree but using the 36 billion given to the fund as an example of members here “wanting free money” was stupid even for racer. Had the fund been properly administered, it would be solvent. 25% at one point... 25%. While I don't agree with his assertion that it is free money, it certainly wasn't paid for by the backs of the people in the fund... If you and I are paying for it, while not free, it is a 'check' passed to them from the taxpayers of this country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 By the way, on average, UPS funds every full time employees pension fund to the tune of $23,000 per year. Where does all that money go? The pension fund uses it to pay other pensioners in the multi-employer system. That is why UPS gave them a big chunk of cash to the Central States and said kiss off... we will administer the pension ourselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin_dry Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Once again, during march of 2020 the amount of mandated cash reserves needed to be carried by banks went from 10% to zero. Zero fucking liquidity. I’ve been trying to find data on SVB’s cash reserves and there’s nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 During a conference call about the Silicon Valley Bank bailout yesterday, Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) asked representatives from the Federal Reserve, Treasury Department, and the Federal Deposit and Insurance Corporation (FDIC) if they had a way to censor information on social media to prevent a run on the banks, according to Republican members of the House of Representatives who were on the call. The members said there were roughly 200 people on the Zoom call, including Senators, House members, and staff members from both parties. “On our conference call, led by [Senate President Chuck] Schumer, with Fed, FDIC, and Treasury, a democrat senator asked the three agencies if there was a program underway on social media to censor information that would lead to a bank run,” Rep. Thomas Massie told Public. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 As of February, Frank owned 5,542 shares of Signature Bank worth $825,000; the shares are likely now worthless after the government took the bank into receivership. Frank has been part of the board since 2015 and is expected to depart later this year, the filing adds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just simply can't keep spending and printing more and more money. SIMPLE, but there are a few here that are just too dumb or that just don't care because they are getting there "free" money and they just plain don't want to have to work for it. 23 minutes ago, racer254 said: How many more examples like that do we need?

Ah yes, specifically calling out members here is truly the best way, LOL. It is what a few people do on here constantly, but I am not one of them. Take a good look at the people constantly cheering the bailouts or stimulus funds vs tax relief and I think you will have your answer.

ArcticCrusher Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Insurance for all pooled banks can cover 120 billion deposits, the bank had over 250 billion. But there is no bailout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You brought up members here “wanting free money so they didn’t have to work” and when pressed you posted a link to a Teamsters bailout and now a Teamster is here bailing your dumbass out with pictures of covid relief checks from the State of Maine and you’re taking a victory lap.😂 How could I know exactly what you’re tslking about when you don’t even know?
