The following is a quote from the following website . That website agrees with me that the Fed has caused most recessions by tightening which it is doing now . And the media has always blamed Republican Presidents not the Fed, as in Hoover , W Bush etc.

“So while the Fed clearly has been the driver behind most modern recessions”

Also in those previous Fed tightening periods inflation was the excuse but now there is no inflation so it's clearly political.

This shows the Fed will cause a recession with their current QT:

So the Fed tightened in 95 and that caused a recession in 01?
