ATLANTA - Regulatory failure, not low interest rates, was responsible for the housing bubble and subsequent financial crisis of the last decade, Ben S. Bernanke, the Federal Reserve chairman, said in a speech on Sunday.
Mr. Bernanke's remarks, perhaps his strongest language yet assessing the roots of the financial
oops...
because____(fill in the blank)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I already know what the lunatic, fringe Free Market purists are going to say about Bernanke. He ain't free marketeer because____(fill in the blank).

The loony tunes Commie purists say the same thing about Mao, Stalin, Lenin...not really Communists because____(fill in the blank)

The Fed would like nothing more than to continue to buy politicians and everything else worth owning, all in the name of economic stability. So they create a problem and then magically find a solution that benefits them and nobody is the wiser. Meanwhile, the American people, their children, their grandchildren, etc., get to pay for this corruption. It's truly remarkable how they are able to get away with it.
 
Well Bernanke is not a free marketer. And since he is almost singlehandedly responsible for the current mess, and also up for re-appointment, what would you expect him to say?

But your headline reads better for people intent on finding ways to make socialism look good. Coming up next, Conservative agrees health care bill is great idea, featuring Ben Nelson.

Name one thing the FED owns, and name one politician who can control what the FED does..

So they create a problem and then magically find a solution that benefits them and nobody is the wiser
Benefits them? lol
Name exactly what benefit the FED got in any instance.

I've been hearing for ages the BS that the children and grandchildren must not pay for their parents. Kids have always paid their parents back in some way...before the US started to raise a generation of gimmie goils.

When the grandkids of today enter the work force, today's deficits will br paid off. IT almost ALWAYS happens that way..moonbats rage against deficits and they get paid off before the ''children'' you people hide behind even get to pay a dime in taxes.

Bernanke went along with bail outs of big bad capitalist corporations.

Bernanke tried hardest to save the US economy and financial system. Wall Street loves the guy...and you call him a socialist?

:lol: :cuckoo: :rofl: :lol:
 
yea... the same type of people also thew Greenspan under a bus after his infamous testimony too..


it's like a fucking cult or something.
 
Now Bernanke's an advocate of the free market? Come on now, let's get serious here fellas. Who's Next? Obama?
 
derrr derrrrr... Greenspan hates the free market too! derrrr derrrrrr..


:rolleyes:

I'm with Pat on this one. I'm tired of being led along some mythical chase for a jackelope free market system that is quickly touted as "just not free enough to show the benefits" every time we continue to eat the shit of the econ opinion of what is quickly becoming nothing more than a cult who seems to think non-wall street journal readers confuse the taste of poop with chocolate.

if you would bother to notice everything in wiki is sourced.

It is not just wiki its history.

You just refuse anything that makes it hard for you to keep following like a sheep your one little site.

If you would bother to notice reality then you would notice that your interpretation of history leaves out a lot of history.
 
Bernanke is not a free markter but a central planner- that was central banking is. Are economy is not free since the Federal Reserve Act 1913
