  1. I had a good belly laugh at the Jared Bernstein clip. I had a 20-year career as a commercial banker, having snuck through the back door as a temp secretary and ending up as a mid-level executive. I had dropped out of college, but because of my willingness to work for a difficult guy (and little old fashioned initiative) he sponsored me to get into the Corporate Banking management training program. As a lowly secretary I joined the cream of the crop MBAs from Harvard, Wharton, USC, etc. I must have asked every single one of these whiz kids to explain to me what was the role of the Fed, how was money “created”, why did the Treasury have to borrow money instead just printing it – you know, logical questions one would ask if one had no background in these matters but sincerely wanted to know. I pretty much got 20 answers just like Bernstein’s. You know what they say: if you can’t explain it to a seven-year-old (or a temp), you don’t really understand it yourself.

  5. hope you had a conversation with Dr. Breggin, who has not yet thought through the situation, but repeated the standard response.

  7. I love John’s personality – it shows how authentic he is and how fed up he is with all that is going on.
