Hmm - I wonder who appointed the current Fed chair?
- jonathanpeterwu 5y agoYeah no doubt about this. But its also important to remember we've been doing this non stop since 2008 minus a few months in 2018. So this is a multi president, both parties are involved in continuing this train.
- spaetzleesser 5y agoPeople have been conditioned to believe it's either one or the other party's fault. And they decide whether things are going well or not so well based on whether their favorite president is in power. Nobody looks at the actual data.
- stjohnswarts 5y agoThe current Fed chair has basically the same idea on economics as Yellen. Likely not much would have changed if she'd stayed in office.
- nostromo 5y agoTrue -- but note that Yellen was appointed by the same president.
- stjohnswarts 5y agoNot true. Yellen was appointed by Obama, Powell was appointed by Trump.
