every single criticism of liberals, is a made-up “party line”?

Pete, this nominee to be in charge of currency…

do you deny she was arrested for shoplifting at a TJ Maxx as an adult?

Do you deny she write a paper in the last ten years, demonizing american financial
institutions and suggesting we all have savings and checking accounts managed by the federal government?

am i making that up?

Oh no, not demonizing bankers
We worship money, don’t we?

Hard to believe any college student would break a law.

Almost as hard to believe that anyone would suggest any banking be done by the federal government.

Most countries use their postal networks to deliver banking services — and so did the U.S. from 1911 to 1966.

It might even damage the business of check cashing businesses, payday loan companies, rent to own stores and other businesses that prey on low income folks.
How horrible

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Let’s re-cap….

Biden nominee: People
shouldn’t be allowed to have savings and checking accounts with private banks. They should be forced to bank with the federal government.

Pete: while i despise authoritarians, i support this, because it’s not at all authoritarian. nope, not at all.

Jim: that’s a radical idea

Pete: oh so you worship bankers?

it’s always one stupid extreme
or another with you thoughtless libs who can’t debate anything honestly. if i say her notion is kooky, you can’t refute that. you know you can’t refute that. so you act as if i said “ we can never criticize bankers”, because that’s easy to refute.

only, i never said that. as always, instead of just admitting she’s a tad radical, you claim i said something which i never came close to saying. you and wdmso do this on every single thread.

she is the extremist here. not me. well, her and you i guess

so in the last couple of days, i’ve tricked you into admitting that you think it’s a good sign that the overwhelming majority of those who control our economy, vote democrat.

and i’ve also tricked you into admitting what we all
knew already, that you are fine with authoritarians, as long as they dictate from the left.

keep responding to the voices in your head, instead of to what i post here.

Pulverized.

That's not at all what she said. Pete, do you ever get the feeling that say 80% of your inane rants are simply based on a lack of information?

it’s exactly what she said, and it was last year.

here is senator tim scott reading her own stated, written positions back to her. is scott lying? is he reading someone else’s words? or are you just wrong, again and again and again? she’s been grilled in this all day. not once did she say “i’m sorry, i didn’t write that.”.

It's not her stated position at all, it's an academic thought piece that in her own words...

As stated from the outset, the Article is meant to
be a synthesizing, boundary-defining exercise. Its goal is not to
repackage or refine familiar prescriptions but to expand the scope—and
to sharpen the focus—of the currently fragmented public debate on
what “democratizing finance” means in today’s complex world.
Academics do this stuff all the time. I'm not saying she wouldn't be harder on banks.
