    I’ve never seen such a naked upwards redistribution of money in my life. At one point, the Fed gave itself the power to literally buy shares of funds itself to inflate the price.

    Now since the free money has dried up with rising interest rates (which had to happen because the poors were finally seeing an opportunity to get a mortgage with low rates and that caused all of the inflation don’t you know) businesses are raising rates on everything ever to sustain their profits.
