THE FED HAS LOST CONTROL OF THE MONEY SUPPLY (AND THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING)


The US Federal Reserve has lost its once unchallenged ability to shape the US dollar money supply toward effecting its policy goals. This talk will describe six powerful arguments against the Fed implementing its policies. We will use semantic analysis in order to understand which outcomes can or cannot happen, based on observable data.

The instructor, Dr. W. E. Perry, has long been engaged in developing the tools of semantic analysis. He previously gave a lecture series on the history of credit at the Henry George School.

Instructor: Dr. W. E. Perry
