The best part is there is no universe where doing this will actually contain rates. You already see the containment failing as the 30 year rate and mortgage rates decouple. Banks aren’t actually retarded like Trump.

The lesson from the 73 oil shock is DONT DO THIS. The Burns fed was too accommodating and kept rates too low which made Volckers ultimate tightening that much harsher.

Basically don’t hold cash because it will be worthless after two more years of Trump. Buy any hard asset and enjoy the ride.

we're fucked.

the only viable solutions involve drastically slashing our defense, social security, and medicare/medicaid budgets. Defense is a non-starter because our greatest ally needed 80% of our missiles to harass its neighbors. Social security is a non-starter because of boomers. Medicare/medicaid/other welfare is a non-starter because of niggers.

we're fucked because we are collectively a bunch of needy bitches.

defense is one thing where we must be #1. everything else should be negotiable.

the idea that social security age limit isn't higher is really fucking retarded. (i'm conceding that getting rid of it altogether isn't an option but i'd support that goal)

the idea that medicare etc shouldn't be cut like a motherfucker is really fucking retarded.

I haven't seen any news about a new change in fed policy. The fed is definitely accommodative given the persistent inflation. Though the slow GDP report a week ago probably gave Warsh enough support to keep it this way. He's going to do whatever trump wants and trump wants the money printer running.

also the bond market needs to put congress in their fucking place, it's completely ridiculous. this kind of situation is exactly what the fed was supposed to prevent.

the point I'm getting at is complaining about "artificially" adjusted interest rates is silly because that's how the entire system is designed. The Fed has a monopoly on money and by virtue of that, interest rates aren't subject to the "free market"; they're artificially set.
