"living wills" of 5 banks fail to pass muster

[OriZ 3,157]

No I did not advocate it. I advocate breaking up the FED

I don't know where you see self interest. Why would any of it matter to me one way or the other?

Of course I care about the grand scheme of things. Just because I see it differently than you and have a different opinion of what would be better for the economy, the markets or the country as a whole doesn't mean I don't care.

Umm reread your former posts, bud....

Yeah you care enough to throw a few dollars at the homeless dude in the park, but then shame him by publicising his bath habits-lol

I did, and I believe I've made it very clear that I do care. If you have a different opinion - please elaborate.

And again, why would it matter to me either way? Pro traders know how to profit from any situation. If anything - less manipulation would be better for me(not to mention a healthier economy would be better for my business). But there again - the chief manipulator of financial markets is the fed. They can't change the course of it, but they can cause short term disruptions.

So many contradictions in your statements.. If you can't see them you must be less honest than I thought you to be.

Your original statement was that the big banks in the US should be broken up and that the gilded age was fantastic, to paraphrase. You obviously read up. But and adapted your original statement .

The dude in the park thanks you.

Nope.

Never said anything about breaking up big banks, quite the contrary, said it was the fed that needs to go before you can talk about any of that. I'm not the one being disingenuous.

[Jacque67 7,328]

And I told you what I propose.

Get rid of central banks. Central banks only give them more power. Hold banks accountable/no bailouts.

I am not "throwing around an idea". Trust me, to those of us who know what's going on it's not such an extreme proposition. Expecting the government to handle it is like letting the cat guard the cream.

Get rid of central banks ...

Keep spinning

Liar, liar pants on fire!!!

Short term memory loss? Convenient.

[OriZ 3,157]

Wow. I guess you don't know that the fed aka the federal reserve IS a Central bank?

Central banks. Not big banks. Central banks. Big Difference.

it would help if you were understanding the context of what he said, instead of jumping to conclusions with statements like

Your original statement was that the big banks in the US should be broken up

the fed reserve, btw, is not owned by the us government..........that is a major concern for all.
