Possibly you are wishing for things to be more simple than is possible. There are two kinds of free markets: One is a market where everyone is free to compete on a level playing field; the other is a market free from government involvement, i.e., government adopts a laissez faire attitude...

How about doing nothing.

They are having a little tiff with the NIH over patent rights to their particular mRNA sequence that codes for the Covid Spike protein, but I think it will be resolved amicably. This is tremendously promising science, and not just for vaccine development. They are already working on an update to...

That's precisely what I am stating! From the deep South, after reconstruction ended until after integration, virtually none. Two or three in the entire Congress maybe over that period (but I doubt there were any at all). By the deep South I mean those states where a bell was rung in town on...

Well. Any one watching MRNA lately? Was that a 20% gain in one day? Too bad I didn't have a thousand shares. Oh Well. nice gain anyway.

I did. You should have read my response. Don't expect me to repeat it. ET does have search function. This thread is about elephants in Donkey suits and Critical Race Theory, whatever that is. Why don't you chime in, and let us know your thoughts.

Ha ha ha. Get outa here. ROTFLMAO. There's virtually none, I can't name a single one, 'cept corse during reconstruction, which them Yankees forced on us. We not count'n Reconstruction, bless your heart. That was before we started lynch'n. They all from them progressive states like Illinois...

You are looking at Republicans dressed in Donkey suits. We have to remember that the parties were reversed in the South from Lincoln until sometime after integration. White Southerners almost all identified themselves as Democrats, but when their Representatives and Senators got to Washington...

After I posted the above, it occurred to me how very complex and fraught with opportunity for misunderstanding anything that involves making choices based on race becomes. Could this be because we have inadequate definitions of the word "racism"? In the past, we made choices based purely on...

I read the article you gave a link to, but I am still having trouble understanding what this CRT stuff is all about, unless perhaps its intended to be unclear. If that's the case, then i do understand it, but just don't realize that I do. I read this: "Its adherents pursue “antiracism”...

I don't understand CRT. I am not naturally suspicious of anything I can't understand, but I am suspicious of anything that seems to depend on premises that are either unclear or seem obviously false -- that doesn't mean they are false. Perhaps the the problem I'm having is accepting as a...

If you use that as a distinguishing feature between left and right, you'll probably use whether your saltines are salted on the top or bottom to decide which box to buy.

Ha ha, years ago that was actually true in a few very pricey restaurants, though of course there was no other distinguishing feature between the women's and the man's menu. It was up to the head waiter to decide when this menu difference should apply.

Perhaps this entire thread is just a promotional for improved public education in the U.S.A.

Let me elaborate on this post above now that I have a moment. I suppose Powell is at least technically right when he says these loan programs the Fed is providing are not QE. Technically they could have similar net results as Bernanke QE, but practically speaking I think that's a bit of a...

There are probably numerous places you can go for the information you seek. The best would be the The Fed's site, but of course it is difficult to get to the right place; there is so much there. You might try just doing a search on Jerome Powell and see what turns up. Or maybe "Powell and QE"...

Probably they won't have a problem there, but of course there is some risk. They are in the business of making money. The IBs plan to pay back their loans from the Fed out of their profits.

In the Bernanke style QE, the Fed would buy a pre-announced amount of Treasuries on the secondary market on a regular basis. This increases bank reserves, pushes down interest rates and of course supports bond prices, while the Treasury is needing to pair new Treasury issues with its deficits...

I have never been a fan of Powell's, who in my opinion follows too closely in Greenspan's footsteps. Powell seems not to have learned the lessons of the Financial Crisis and Great Recession. He has been a bad leader for he Fed. His background in finance law and politics is well suits him to...

not any more!
