  1. You have to consider numerous factors. Anthropogenic GGs, including CO2 are a relatively new addition to the earth's atmosphere but the climate would be changing anyway without them, as it always has.
  2. Yes, I am aware of the possibilities, thanks.
  3. So then, if what you imply is true, why would the Gov not feed the Fed with essential information necessary to form best policy?
  4. With the worst inflation in 40 years and markets about to fall more, then I might well end up with nothing. At least Powell seems to have woken up - a bit late but I think we'll see soon.
  5. See my reply to Brian. In addition, I think it can be fairly assumed that there must be some information sharing between the US Government and the Federal Reserve, even though the latter is not officially part of the government.
  6. The US Treasury has access to that kind of intelligence.
  7. Or maybe the radars were in OFF or STBY mode? These 'experts' are supposed to have at least a bit of vision and must have access to all kinds economic forecasts and other intelligence.
  8. If you can call Janet Yellen an economist, less than a year ago, she was referring to the earlier stages of the present inflation cycle as "transitory" - Powell did the same - I think that was shortsighted and stupid. Easier access to the markets today has resulted in a far higher percentage of stock investors that are not "qualified" economists.
  9. I thought read that the land was rented? The rest won't be worth much.
  10. But they have taken and benefitted from PPP "loans" too. Of course those that have are hardly likely to bleat about their own leader's latest giveaways.
  11. The Democrats are rather quiet about their own - quelle surprise.
  12. The right direction? Like hyper-inflation?
  13. They are business loans. Strange no Democrat names highlighted - were there none?
  14. Quite a different program and broadly popular. The Democrats even pushed to simplify access to it. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/06/12/coronavirus-update-democrats-push-for-easier-ppp-loan-forgiveness-process.html
  15. That's OK as long as the gov doesn't expect any student to pay off any debt ever again.
  16. The question was a fair one.
  17. Well we can't expect an answer to the question can we?
  18. By not having these loan subsidies when they needed them - their chance has gone now.
  19. The poorest will lose a chance at university.
