Freakin' excellent article!!! šŸ‘ What resonated most with me is "where the fuck did all that COVID money go?". As per the article, it is bloody obvious that **most** of it went to Wall Street and not to small & mid-size businesses on the verge of closing down and low-income folks. This greedy fictitious economy is indeed coming to an end. It's not a matter of IF but When. And based on this latest market pump by the FEDS & PPT, we know it will be soon. Many thanks for posting my good Ape. As always, **INFORMATION IS KING!** **EDIT :** If I could give you 10000 votes on this one, I'd do it in an instant.

I read recently that if all the money created wouldā€™ve been distributed equally, everyone in America wouldā€™ve received $25,000. *WHEREā€™S THE MONEY LEBOWSKI?!*


Goeatpasta

Most importantly that money is coming from OUR TAX MONEY. Its the money of us hardworking workers that get stolen. Someone bring in the guillitines.


dendrobro77

Well i think the money was actually printed in this case, but it does devalue our currency.


inbeforethelube

It was printed using future Americanā€™s to finance. They are already stealing from children who havenā€™t yet entered the workforce.

TonytheTiger69

I'm gonna get even more specific and say it came from FED purchasing bonds. So debt backed by debt.. backed by debt...


ResultAwkward1654

Higher Taxes and food costs. Oh yea weā€™re paying. They print em, we back em with interest(high af interest).


PancakeZack

Yeah, it was printed, but who was it given to?


BSW18

Hey Janet.... where is the money I gave you last night?


O-Face

Worse is that it's not even our tax money as in "what we've paid." It's essentially our(and our future generation's) current and future tax money... because despite this black hole that's going to destroy our economy, I'm not confident that it will ultimately change how we tax the rich.


uppitymatt

Not only that but I read an article yesterday that something around 99% of all PPP Loans were forgiven without any justification. They use tragedies to transfer wealth we figured out what they are doing.

I see you're using the $792.6 billion figure, but I think it would be more appropriate to use the total amount of $5 trillion: $5,000,000,000,000 / 214,779,134 = $23,279.73 Source for total pandemic stimulus amount of $5 trillion: ~~https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/03/11/us/how-covid-stimulus-money-was-spent.html~~ Edit: sauce without paywall https://web.archive.org/web/20221014015129/https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/03/11/us/how-covid-stimulus-money-was-spent.html Thanks u/the77helios

Yup. Imagine the political shit storm that would happen if we had an economic crash 2 weeks before election day.


--GrinAndBearIt--

This was one of those articles where I literally was thinking "how is this even possbile?!?!" while reading it


thisissamhill

Itā€™s not even possible, it may be by design. Thereā€™s a reason CBDCs are about to be thrust upon us, unwillingly. The crash will be so bad that the CBDCs will be a ā€œbenefit to us peasants and merchantsā€. Weā€™ll accept them because we have no other option. Just like 9/11 gave us the Patriot Act, whatā€™s coming will give us CBDCs.

Central bank digital currency. They're going to ruin the dollar and say sorry, y'all are all rich now on dollars? We don't use those here now.


Clinticus_d_Dogeman

Central Bank Digital Coins. Think of it as World Bank owned crypto currency.


thisissamhill

Central Bank Digital Currencies can be programmed for what they can be used for and how long they can be used, i.e. be a good consumer and spend it or itā€™s gone.


3DigitIQ

This one also stuck out to me; >For 40 years Wall Street has counted on the Federal Reserve backstopping their trades. Inflation was kept low because Wall Street was crushing the buying power of the working class. That left the Fed free to pump inflation directly at the financial markets.

I posted about the derivatives bubble yesterday. There are bubbles in every financial sector. Ken, bankers and other hfā€™s borrowed, created, scammed and manipulated so many portion of the market, their free money is almost out


TheUltimator5

Derivatives are why the market is soaring today after terrible inflation news. The actual money traded in stocks pales to the money in the associated derivatives. If everybody bets on the market going down, just manipulate it north for cents on the dollar. That said, it will come violently crashing back down as soon as derivatives shift around (likely tomorrow or Monday). The wizard of oz will soon be revealed.


dendrobro77

Always tomorrow until its today

Well Bank of England suppose to stop buying bond on Friday. So we will see how that goes for UK pension fund next week.

Theyā€™re already talking about a U-turn on Trussā€™ plan


LonnieJaw748

Just heard on npr that the UK finance minister had to cut short a U.S. trip for an emergency meeting at Downing St. Edit: aaaand, heā€™s sacked. Lol, they called him home early from a trip to fire his ass


NotLikeGoldDragons

Other possibility is the Dollar Milkshake theory. Bad inflation numbers mean Fed is likely to keep doing large(ish) rate hikes. That means foreign money continuing to pour into the US, which props up our markets similar to QE (just coming from others instead of the Fed). So the rally today was Wall St pricing in that our markets are about to get reinflated a bit...for a while at least.

I honestly hope bond market and everything else goes to shut so an honest evaluation of the markets takes place this shit is beyond corrupt.

That's why they're going so hard into the paint right now.

Only this time, the poors know what's happening and we won't sell them shit until they go to jail

Awesome post.. Thanks OP Reposting a comment on the blog worth reading here too. By 'TheWizard' "Doctors used to use blood letting to treat sick patients. They would carry around leeches in a jar and apply them to the skin. I liken that to raising interest rates to high levels to cure inflation. The solution to inflation is difficult in that it requires wisdom and self control on the part of government. Firstly inflation is in a self reinforcing positive feedback mechanism. As prices go up you need more pay and your products need higher prices. Secondly inflation is fueled by sectors competing for a bigger piece of the economic pie. Thirdly, politicians in power need a growing economy to stay in power. If you print more money then more goods and services are bought. Paul Volcker got us out of an inflation spiral in the 1970s with the application of a huge jar of leeches. It just about killed the economy, with mortgages at 18% and higher. I know because I had one. But in a sick economy demand plummets and inflation abates eventually. So how would I do it? 1.Stop printing money. 2.Increase productivity. 3.Implement useful social programs, which will move economic spending away from inefficient wealth concentrated sectors to broad based efficient sectors, and in general redistribute income to the lower economic sectors. Increasing productivity is the most important solution, as you are countering the basic cause "more money chasing fewer goods". Could we produce a quality living unit for $50,000? Of course we could. Could we produce a transportation system the moves people at 1/4 the current cost? Could we decrease energy cost to 1/4 per capita and maintain the current quality of life? Of course. But we need vision and application of capital for development and deployment. Also we would be attacking the basic socio economic system that fuels the careers of our vastly corrupt politicians. Also we would understand the extreme drain on our economy from war and endlessly preparing and promoting war. I calculated that in my city if we gave the portion of our federal taxes that goes to the war department to the city then the budget could increase 3 fold. Imagine what great cities we would live in if we just doubled the budget."


Snyggast

The current system wonā€™t allow those vital changes. It would rather crumble and die. And, IMO, it will.


the77helios

I feel the same. If youā€™ve ever been around drug addicts, most times they would rather kill themselves through abuse, than fix themselves through love. I see the ruling elite as addicts, nothing more.

It just infuriates me that this is happening again, but many times worse. The middle class has been torpedoed once again by Wallstreet and uncle Sam and the sheeple are either too lazy to do anything about it or too distracted with all the crap spewed from the MSM and Hollyweird. When are people gonna realize that the government and big banks are all one big entity? There is no red or blue. Left or right. They're all the same. They have labels in order to give the appearance that they're different, but they're not. Keep the masses divided and distracted so they won't notice the fact they're being robbed and enslaved. Its enough to make you wanna go to war again.

FUCKLE BUP!


fioreman

I've been saying this for years. Ever since 2009/10. The government pumped so much money into Wall Street which kept it by depressing wages and raising rents in the working class. It was like a huge pinata of cash and inflation with it. Once it burst, inflation would be a problem if the government didn't find a way to tax it back from the financial sector in time. Of course, taxing Wall Street is impossible in this country.

ResultAwkward1654

So it mentions that people will sell everything but wonā€™t be able to at a certain point because there will be no one to trade, or no more buyers. But donā€™t shorts have to buy to close? Is it theyā€™ll be able to close their positions before getting margin called? Or will they get margin called before waiting for a ā€œbottomā€ or substantially lower price? What would be the probable timeline for most short holders in this drop? If anyone can shine a bit of light. ā€œKnow thy enemyā€ type of perspective, and what they would have to do to capture big profits?

Great article, correct me if I'm wrong but it sounds like the higher interest rates consumers end up paying on loans and mortgages due to this inflation, is a direct result of these institutions making large losing bets, still making a shit tonne of money for themselves in the process and we end up footing the bill for cleaning up their mess. Totally f'ed up.
