Obama and Bernanke manipulate Americans like they’re Pavlov’s dogs, keep retirees’ savings at zero for 7+ years to rescue banks

“Finally, we must question the morality of Fed programs that trick people (as if they were Pavlov’s dogs) into behaviors that are adverse to their own long-term best interest. What kind of government entity cajoles savers to spend, when years of under-saving and overspending have left the consumer in terrible shape?

What kind of entity tricks its citizens into paying higher and higher prices to buy stocks? What kind of entity drives the return on retirees’ savings to zero for seven years (2008-2015 and counting) in order to rescue poorly managed banks?

Not the kind that should play this large a role in the economy.” via Free Republic
