WORLD CENTRAL BANKS ON 'RED ALERT'
Joe Weisenthal
Aug. 2, 2012, 4:15 PM
Jon Hilsenrath, the world's best central bank reporter, says that the conclusion from this week is that the world's big central banks (the Fed and the ECB, natch) are on 'red alert' over the state of the US economy.
From WSJ:
Ben Bernanke and Mario Draghi, with words but not yet actions, demonstrated this week that they are on red alert about the global economy.
Expectations are now high that Mr. Bernanke's Federal Reserve and Mr. Draghi's European Central Bank will act soon to address those worries. But both face immense tactical and political challenges and neither has a handbook to follow.

Create a crisis, and then make it even worse, by trying to fix it.

You can fool some of the people all of the time, all of the people some of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time.

Central banks are 110% responsible for everything. Bastards and greedy jerks run them for their own profits. Slimy, greedy profiteers are in charge of our economy and our corrupt political system. Just another symptom of a total freaking breakdown and economic collapse coming very soon:
