Fed Audit: Trillions For Foreign Banks, Conflicts of Interest

 

During a 2½ year period starting at the end of 2007, the Federal Reserve provided more than $16 trillion in secret bailouts to banks and other companies around the world, according to a government audit of some of the U.S. central bank’s operations.

 

Much of the Fed's largesse was lavished on banks in Europe and Asia, the audit revealed. More than $3 trillion, for example, went to financial institutions in just five European countries. Trillions more flowed toward some of the biggest banks in America. Institutions from Brazil and Mexico to South Korea and Canada also benefited.

No, the duck is not an economist -- he's an avatar based on Groucho Marx's  old show, "You Bet Your Life."

 

However, the poster he represents is a bit more complicated.  As I've stated before:  originally a physics major and math minor. Then, a business major and economics minor (required at UNA).

 

Post graduate work at Syracuse U, Army Staff Management College, Air University, and most of the logistics courses in the Army.

 

I'm reminded of the conversation the MSNBC reporter Contessa Brewer had with Mo Brooks:

 

Brewer: “You’re simplifying the issues that were on the plate of the nation at that point. I mean we were looking at going – averting a Depression at that point, everyone the Fed chairman . . .
Brooks: “Well I disagree that we were going into a Depression, but go ahead.”
Brewer: “Do you have a degree in economics?”
Brooks: “Yes Ma’am I do, highest honors.”

 

Our Miss Brewer looked like a shocked guppy.

 

Contessa Brewer -- beautiful name and beautiful woman.  Unfortunately, her elevator doesn't go all the way to the top floor.

 

Jimi's doesn't even leave the ground floor.

I saw that, too. Unfortunately, I didn't see the aftermath; the clip stopped at that point.

 

She apparently isn't a lawyer, either. Every lawyer worth his fee knows you don't ask a witness a question that you don't already know the answer to. And know when to quit asking:

Lawyer: Did you see John bite Sam's ear off?

Witness: No.

Lawyer: Then how do you know he bit it off?

Witness: I saw him spit it out of his mouth.
