Hehe, I like your metaphor. That’s spot on. The so-called conservatives and/or patriots on this board saying “the Fed has said it’s not OK” as though that were a meaningful argument should do some thinking on the topic.
It’s like you have a lousy job, so instead of quitting, you ask your boss for permission to quit.
He says no, so you suck it up the next 10 years without realizing that (other than in a slavery situation) EVERY worker has the right to quit a job.
