The only difference between Ben Bernanke and a filthy whore is that you know where your money is going.

@andreaoffshore I think your tin foil hat is on the fritz. The Fed doesn't have any shareholders above and beyond it's member banks, IS NOT PRIVATE, and the term "shareholder" is used very loosely. Member banks only have one share, the shares are at a fixed price (meaning no bank holds more weight on committee than any other), and those shares can't be sold per Fed policy (shares are arbitrary). Surely as an economist you know at least that much.. Oh wait, maybe you're LYING.

Everyone is a master of economics. It is one of the few fields where people read a book or two (sometimes not even that) and immediately become all knowing. Ridiculous.
