OK, like the detail you provided about tax policy?

I mean "great detail" compared to your usual. So really, I guess I'm asking you to just say exactly what you mean.

Unless you already have, in which case I would assume that you're simply saying that had Yellen not "telegraphed" (meaning forward guidance?) and not given "political speeches" (acknowledging inequality?) and not "set off a foreign central banker" (???) we'd have seen a v-shaped recovery? How much of the blame does Bernanke get?

Or did you actually mean something very different? Because this argument sounds frankly laughable. Perhaps I have misunderstood it.

She / they, should have raised interest rates a long while ago. There was nothing stopping them frm doing this, and they had opportunity.

And their heroic stand in December of 2015? The very definition of government overreach. There were many other options to "build cushions against losses".

I'll provide even more detail when you actually do. Which is to say, likely never.
