@plutus @johnserwach @rubecube12 The message should be: Look, your easing of bank regs in '18 setup a near catastrophe. We cannot afford to play Russian Roulette here. Raise the ceiling NOW.

@plutus @ForeignSubstance @rubecube12

That is probably not the best way to handle it as the media could spin it so many ways, plus it causes a loss of face. Best to do it privately.

@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

Its on Congress to raise the debt ceiling. I'd republicans don't want to pass a clean bill and was cut spending into a recession. That's on them. I'd rather go into default and not pay their constituents who own all the bonds and stocks. We'll pay for Medicare instead. Or they can be grown ups and pass a clean budget bill and clean debt ceiling increase

@johnserwach @plutus @ForeignSubstance

The era of austerity is over. No budget cuts coming

@rubecube12 @plutus @ForeignSubstance they will@increase the debt ceiling- the pressure behind the scenes is growing.

I wonder if that loser is still planning on staying on “higher for longer” island 🙄

San Francisco board open to reparations with $5M payouts

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Payments of $5 million to every eligible Black adult, the elimination of personal debt and tax burdens, guaranteed annual incomes of at least $97,000 for 250 years and homes in San Francisco for just $1 a family. These were some of the more than 100 recommendations made by a city-appointed reparations…

China in deep recession. They have no money. War with Taiwan off the table

@rubecube12 @plutus @johnserwach War is almost never economically logical in the first place, so I don't know how much confidence I have in this claim.

@ForeignSubstance @plutus @johnserwach

They will be Austria or Russia in world War 2. If they go to war. War when economically weak leads to revolution

@ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 @plutus

Do you think Germany was economically strong in WW2 ?

@rubecube12 @plutus @ForeignSubstance what do the fees represent ?

@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

Surge zones on the map. 275 is what I made

@ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 @plutus so like the $5.75 is someone there has to pay $5.75 extra ?

@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

5.75 plus normal fair. Was 10$ in some areas earlier

@ForeignSubstance @plutus @rubecube12 do people take these like for 2 blocks or something ?!?

Of course Lankford spent all-night crafting this question; Yellen could've been much smoother

@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @plutus

Podunk community banks are free to fail, but most of them have less than 50 billion dollars so thamwy are free from regulation even under the full Dodd frank law pre 2018. Yes there is different treatment, but that treatment comes with increased regulation

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @plutus

I don’t think Joe six pack is concerned- he’s covered. Sure, the pines’s of this world are out buying silver bullion & MRE’s & ammunition - and the elites like the present company, well, u can only have so many accounts, amirite ? So I’m sure you guys keep your overage at the big guys. I imagine the Oklahoma wildcatters do the same.

@johnserwach @ForeignSubstance @plutus

Yeah nobody is keeping there overage at some small cap credit union. Unless they have an exclusivity clause like SVB put on all their clients

Same dude who wants to break-up FANG because they are oligopolies but it's fine to kill small banks and leaving just the top 4 is ok.

I keep receipts Danny.

@johnserwach @plutus @ForeignSubstance

If you don't allow failure then you should have only one national bank. Depository Banks and power utilities should all be nationalized or highly regulated. There's no innovation. Same business model. Once innovation stops No point in having capitalism.

The Fed's dimmer switch is lighting up credit markets.

@johnserwach @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance

How many banks have to blow up before we realize it’s the conditions they are operating under and not the excesses of a few bank executives. Dick Fuld at Lehman was 100 times more deceptive during GFC than Becket ever was at SVB yet no one singularly put the blame on Lehman.

Powell’s mishandling if monetary policy should not reflect on Biden. Yet I feel many democrats go out of their way in defending Powell.

@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach

21 trips. 350. We're growing at 10% nominally. Where are all those cash gains going? Not the market

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach I refuse to engage in a debate about alternative facts.

@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @plutus

GDP NOwcast 3.2% with 6% inflation. = 9.2% nominal growth. You're the one spewing alternative facts concocted out of who knows where. Like Elon and FSD

@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach riddle me this - why is every progressive senator against these hikes yet moderates for the hikes. Progressive want the rich to suffer as you said right. Progressive house members like aoc have gone after powell - why? You’ve refused to address this point every time I’ve raised it Danny. https://youtu.be/trBD8Lka5Qk

@plutus @johnserwach @rubecube12 Also long been interested. The main problem however, seems to be the same problem: human cupidity/corruption.

*Somebody* has to raise taxes when it's necessary, and they likely have to be raised the most on the richest and most powerful.

Good luck with that, right?
