Warren: Republicans Want the Fed to ‘Raise Interest Rates and Put Millions of People out of Work’
Breitbart ^ | 10/17/2022 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 10/17/2022 6:49:34 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) claimed that Republicans are the ones who want the Federal Reserve to engage in interest rate hikes that will “put millions of people out of work.”

Warren said, “I just want to say here, it’s the Republicans who are trying to keep 43 million Americans from getting their student loan debt canceled. It is Republicans who want to repeal the laws that we just got in place to cut the cost of insulin and to let Medicare negotiate drug prices. It’s the Republicans who want to see us raise interest rates and put millions of people out of work. So, I am very worried about buzzkill. I am worried about what it is the Republicans want to do to an America that really — what we’re trying to do as Democrats is just build opportunity, just let families get out there and do what they do best, let individuals get out there and do what they do best and let them make their own decisions, including letting women make their own decisions about abortion and about their health care. To me, that’s the heart of what it means to be an American and to be optimistic about the future we’re building.”

Pretty sure the Fed is doing this independently due to Biden flooding the market with trillions in cash and welfare and refusing to produce domestic energy.

so the only way to slow inflation now is too raise interest rates A LOT.

BS. We dont need to stop inflation instantly to appease the old fart class and ruin millions of lives in the process. Go eat dog food.

In no way did I mean to upset you.
But, unfortunatly, brandon and his people did not cause this mess.
the bush/mccain/ryan wing of the republiCAN’T party caused all this back in ‘06.
The printing presses had to crank up to avoid depression.
3 presidents just kept the presses rolling, creating an artificial economy.
Now, we pay the price

Brother, I promise you in no way did you upset me.

I don’t disagree with anything you’ve said. The warhawk wing of the GOP screwed us pretty hard. They cut taxes while increasing spending exponentially.

I’d just add to your position that the last three presidents kept the presses rolling: Yes, they did. But this current idiot screwed up worse than Obama in the way that nothing good will come of the spending that we’ve been raided for.

Yes, you’re correct. We are now going to pay the price.

The Dems control the WH at least until Jan 20, 2023. What will our economy and the global economy look like by then?

Biden and his policies are cratering the economy. Inflation is the product of massive government spending. It needs to be brought under control or we will head into a Depression.

So that is the criterion? Just because it didn’t work for you is not the way to assess public policy. It worked for the country.

Wall Street and the bankers are singing the blues. Jamie Diamond wants to return to the days of cheap money.

“Go eat dog food.”
Charming to the last.

Obviously forensic abilities are not among your qualities.

Don’t take out the Republican lack of balls on the inncocent worker. It is worth wait. Let’s see if the R gang grows a pair. Crashing into a brick wall is the LAST resort.
