So right you are about the financial service industry being the chief benefactor of a hyperinflationary fed and abandonment of the gold standard.

I think it is much more a matter of GUILT amongst these hedge fund managers that they support commies like Obama. They know they got their money somewhat unjustly because the Fed has been massively devaluing the currency since good old Woodrow Wilson right through Easy Al Greenspan. They get the money first and spend before everyone else knows its been fractionally diluted and is now worth less.

I am hoping to find a job in that industry!

It is more likely to be practical innoculation against any policies Obama or any Democrat might be inclined to later bring against such fund managers.

Politicians don’t come up with policies that go against their big donors. Big donors are in effect big lobbyists.

They give $$$ to democrats to snuff rising competition and maneuver for lobbying positions.
