    No-no, when Fed starts to decide, how many pairs of socks should be produced in the US and what should be their price, then you will feel all the beauty of USSR communism only. :D

  2. No-no, when the Fed devalues the currency so that a pair of socks that once cost $1.00 now costs $5.00, you have felt the beauty of Central Planning already.... :D

    And if corporations are "persons", why is the Fed discriminating by giving only big-bank-persons loans at 0 interest rate? They need to spread the love!! :D

    Hardcore devaluation happened here twice in 90's. Hardcore communism is still worse than that. :)

  4. very good point. If they are a person, figure out what you are going to do with them, and then do the same thing with me. After all, I am a person aren't I?

  6. can you even imagine how it would have gone if when Bernanke said, "We are going to bail out the banks" and someone had stood up and said, "Ok that's cool, but if you are going to bail out one person you have to bail out every person."?

  10. That's why Sweden nationalized theirs and cleaned them up when they had their banking crises.

    The US is turning Japanese.... :D
