“Revenue rose 64% to just over $20bn ($16bn) as net interest income shot up on the back of the interest rate increases.

Deutsche Bank: A major recession is coming and our view is that the only way to minimize the economic, financial and societal damage of prolonged inflation is for the central banks to increase interest rates.

When the Federal Reserve increases interest rates under the guise of minimizing #inflation, it’s to prop up wealth among the wealthiest by making conditions for workers worse and to increase unemployment in an effort to lower wages by reducing their bargaining power.

There’s a big club among the wealthy elites and you ain’t in it!

They don't want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that. That doesn't help them.” - George Carlin
