What a hack article.
ReplyDeleteShe was the Fed Chair, Lynn. Nothing to see here.
What kind of an audience would you expect a Treasury Secretary to give speeches to?
ReplyDeleteI like Janet. I thought it was unreasonable for her to be removed as the Fed Chairman. Alan Greenspan was Fed Chairman through several Administrations.
I also like the current Fed Chairman, Jerome Powell, and I hope he is kept through the next Presidential cycle, although, I do wish Powell would go to Publix now and then, so he could check on inflation in a real world setting.
