At least I’m not laughing at the thought of Russia being wealthy enough to manipulate a vulnerable US economy. I’ll take my one error over your’s any day.

I had mentioned this about Greenspan for over ten years, and no one corrected me prior to today.

We could have been friends if you had been more polite, but by your manner, it is clear you have other purposes, and I doubt I’ll ever enjoy reading your posts in the future. I would have respected your knowledge. But since you are the way you are, I’ll take what knowledge I’ve gained from you without a word of thanks — just this — yes, Russia was rich enough to trigger an economic meltdown if its target were leveraged several times over. I forget exactly how much Fannie/Freddie were leveraged, but it was outrageous.

You think Russia selling some Fannie Mae bonds could hurt our economy? How exactly would that work?

What did you mention? His imaginary loan to Goldman in the 90s?

If only you knew anything about economics or finance, for instance what an arb is, I'm sure we could have had useful discussions.

it is clear you have other purposes,

Trying to dispel ignorance on FR.

and I doubt I’ll ever enjoy reading your posts in the future.

I don't know how I'll carry on.
