Bernanke's nomination hearing set for early December

Although he shouldn't go through , he probably will. We will hear plenty of big talk but then very little action. The status quo will win, again.

It's an issue that libertarian Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) , a self-proclaimed socialist agree on: Congress should have the authority to call for the Federal Reserve to be audited. But it is also something that some in the financial media are reluctant to support, especially judging from the tone of CNBC "The Call" co-host Trish Regan and comments CNBC senior...

DeFazio slams Goldman, Summers, Geithner

Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-Oregon) has a few choice words for Goldman Sachs and suggests the nation might be better off with two more job losses - Larry Summers and Tim Geithner.

Waiting for the train-wreck

Interesting imo The danger in those years [2011/2012] will be that Ben Bernanke will attempt yet again to refloat the U.S. economy through inflation, buying government debt to fund the deficit and forcing short term rates well below the inflation rate. This danger is exacerbated by the Obama administration’s insouciance about deficits. Ben Bernanke on his [...]
