Were the clintons at work back then?

He got the same thing four other presidents got, but Reagan didn't die. Those five all challenged and wanted to do away with the FED RES.

Yes that, and he said he was going to smash the C_A into a thousand little pieces. I guess some logically thinking people put a little heat on them after Oswald’s brilliant shots ended his life.
So much that the spy agency made up a new term ,that term
“Conspiracy Theorist “ and the tinfoil hat reference. Nothing to see here , move along.

From Kennedy’s speech to associated business publications 10/12/60 excerpt...
“In short, why should my party, if successful, want to change the fundamental structure of a system which has performed so well? Where the performance is inadequate, we would hope to improve it. Where there are economic injustices, we would hope to correct them”.

“But this would be basically true regardless of who wins. No President - Democratic or Republican - will be satisfied with growing unemployment, lagging economic growth or excessive price inflation that adversely affects our trade with other nations as well as our stability here at home.”
Hmmm. Continues ...
“5. Finally, there is proper concern about our balance of payments and the recent drain of gold. It is vital that we keep our exports well ahead of our imports in order to cover our commitments abroad - our military forces around the world, our diplomatic obligations, our military aid, and our assistance to underdeveloped nations. But there is still no substitute - for the Nation as well as the individual - for a good cash position; and the difference between our exports and imports today (although somewhat better than last year) is still not enough to meet our obligations around the world.

It is in these five areas of concern - economic growth, unemployment, the business cycle, price stability, and our balance of payments - that I think we can do better, that I think we must do better. And I believe that most businessmen share my concern - and share my belief that we can do better.”
“First, my administration would use monetary policies more flexibly than the Republicans. The Republicans adopted the seemingly simple and easy policy of tightening interest rates when demand was strong and prices were rising - a principle that requires allowing rates to fall when the economy needed stimulation. But the facts of the matter are that each successive peak and each successive valley in the economy has ended with higher and higher interest rates - with the result that paradoxically high rates accompanied heavy unemployment, low production, and a slack economy.
For this policy has not worked. By periodically cutting back on investment, it has held back on a normal, healthy rate of growth. By staying tight too long, as it did in the fall of 1957 when the storm signals were already flying for the recession of 1958 - by the Federal Reserve Board's tight credit - by the defense stretchout of 1958 - it helped to bring on that and other recessions. And, by penalizing most those who must borrow from banks for investment or homebuilding, it is weighted in favor of the larger corporations, which have access to the open market or which can invest from their own earnings”
“A Kennedy administration would not rely upon lopsided monetary policy. It would maintain greater flexibility for investment, expansion and growth. It would not raise interest rates as an end in itself. Without rejecting monetary stringency as a potential method of curbing extravagant booms, we would make more use of other tools.

Secondly, and in this connection, we would use the budget as an instrument of economic stabilization. I believe that the budget should normally be balanced. The exception apart from a serious or extraordinary threat to the national security is serious unemployment. In boom times we should run a surplus and retire the debt. When men and plant are unemployed in serious numbers, the opposite policies are in order. We should seek a balanced budget over the course of the business cycle with surpluses during good times more than offsetting the deficits which may be incurred during slumps.

I submit that this is not a radical fiscal policy. It is a conservative policy”.

Could you imagine BuyDem or Harris giving a speech anything like this?
Well I guess Plagerizing Joe might have back in the day when he stole peoples speeches verbatim.

I thought it went up when Nixon too the U.S. Dollar off the gold standard. The government printing presses started immediately thereafter.

Yep!

Or dollar becoming worthless.

Ms. Taylor Caldwell is the author of "The Devil's Advocate'. The story takes place circe 1971 USA.

I think I saw that documentary. The frangible bullet theory makes sense. And people smelling gunpowder on the ground. Gunpowder smoke is not likely to waft down to street level from the 4th floor.

Thanks do you have a link?

It had to be something other than an AR15.

Putin wracking his brain.
