Maybe I'll get one of those podcast setups. Any microphone/camera/headphone recommendations

You definitely should

I personally prefer a mic and speaker to headphones but each to their own - I just use my laptop camera - I did buy an external ring light - IMO don't buy the cheapest but you can get decent quality at a reasonable price these days but above all don't rely on me for technology tips ;-)

LOL, even though I've worked with computers for decades I'm kind of a Luddite.

As if anyone believes the inflation numbers. Groceries and gas always seeming to rising faster for some reason.

“We’d like to see someone else try it first; but we’re going to do it anyways.” FFS.

Do you think this guy even knows he’s someone else’s useless idiot?

Just like This Time Is Different by Reinhardt and Rogoff. Once debt/GDP gets > 100%, governments either default or inflate the debt away. It’s happening right in front of our very eyes. 💩

He compares "missing" the inflation target with a company missing its sales target. Ridiculous.

Now that they have exceeded the 2% target, maybe the target should be 0% for a few years to bring it back down. Of course, it's an asymmetric policy and they would never do that.

This is why I started doing this. Hard working people HAVE NO IDEA that creatures like Bullard exist, and the incredible power they have to f*** up peoples' lives. If all Americans saw this video, and understood it, I can't believe the Fed would last long. Ultimately it's Congress' fault - they created this Frankenstein.

And Congress is too collectively ignorant to understand the degree of their own ignorance to understand.
