"We are colonized by unelected, unaccountable wankers who get rewarded by the guys they’ve enriched.."

This should replace official fact check warnings Twitter/FB slap on social media posts.

But hear our cheering! And know there are many more of us out there

“ Can’t wait for the FOMC to announce that 5% official CPI is livable (it makes as much sense as the 2% number they pulled out of their a**.)”

Precisely. The media almost always writes as if the 2% inflation mandate was set by congress or has some super long precedent rather than being pulled out of Bernanke’s … um, hat? … in 2011. They can, of course, redefine this magic number as they please. I’m a skeptic that the Fed will be willing to continue “tightening” if unemployment spikes up even a little.

actually, the 2% inflation idea came from new Zealand in the last 80's when RBNZ Governor Donald Brash, in trying to get inflation down from double digits picked a number that seemed very low at the time but potentially realistic. and it has taken a life of its own since then

Augustus Gloop is a bad man. That said, his hyper-inflationary BMI gives me hope for the future.

I’m really thinking I should vault my PM so I can access it from a country outside the US. Otherwise I’m sure I’ll be better off than not having it but these aholes are probably going to get me on their radar to ransack my shit. Man, I really hate this Paul “fkface” Krugman.
