Put a guy from a religion that does not believe in charging interest in charge of the nation’s banking system.

What could go wrong?

The theocratic mindset is one that should be kept out of an already principle fragilized Fed Reserve.

China is betting on bitcoins because they know that people will trust a currency they get paid to bank with instead of this wrothless dollar that gets corrupt by the day. It is scary to think about it, but Babylon is about to go down here

As long as he is good and doesn’t believe in Sharia, I am fine with it.

He's done everything else in finance. He doesn't need more money.

Seems like a Trump sort of pick. I would be very pleased to see him in some public service position.

I think his father is Egyptian and his mother French. He was born in New York. He is a Muslim but says he does not believe in mixing religion with government. He’s a smart guy for sure.

The central goal of ALL shia and sunni is the submission of all government to sharia law. That is dar es salaam - the peace of islam.

You might think it would be mass conversion - but it is not.

Therefore, EVERY shia and sunni muslim - no matter how ‘moderate’ - is the enemy of every other culture on the planet.

Period.

Who was most responsible for PIMCO’s success, Bill Gross or El-Erian?

PROBLEM: "El-Erian is a die hard Jets fan and has been known to appear on TV in a Jets jersey."

Maybe he's not as smart as we thought!

Bill Gross clearly. Due to his longevity. He built the company.

People like El-Erian for his judgement and temperament.

Don't forget the "Petro Yuan" scheme they're cooking up.
