THEY STEAL CANDY FROM CHILDREN
By Mauro Marturano

The governor of the American central bank, Kevin Warsh, has just raised interest rates. As far as I’m concerned, they can do whatever the hell they want: they’re clowns, and clowns they will remain. Every single one of them, from the first to the last.
But the sheer number of idiots hanging on the every word of these puppets surprises me more and more every time. And the masses’ inability to understand simple dynamics... that surprises me too.
Question: what the hell does the increase in prices depend on? Vigorous growth in the real economy? Yeah, right!!!
It depends on the endless games/messes organized by those in charge, who then dictate their orders to the servants below, like Donaldo and Bibi.
So, raising interest rates in this context... what the fuck is it supposed to achieve?
Nothing, obviously, other than screwing you over both on the price side (with oil going up when you go to the gas pumps 😂) and on the debt side (with interest rates going up).
If oil is at $100 today and tomorrow they organize another mess in Arabia, we’ll have oil at $130–140. And so... what the hell was the point of raising interest rates, other than screwing borrowers as well?
Economic theory would say that lowering interest rates is supposed to cool down the economy. But in this case... do we need to cool down the economy? Or cool down the brains of Trump and Bibi?
Things that are astonishingly easy to understand. And yet I hear commentators talking, and talking, and talking... about nothing mixed with absolutely nothing.
The truth... the only truth is that they have to screw you over on every front.
