Richard Field, director of The Institute For Financial Transparency, joins Jack Farley to argue that the Federal Reserve made a huge mistake during the Great Financial Crisis of 2008 and is making another one now. Field tells Jack he thinks that former Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke ought not to have bailed out the major investment banks, but rather should have let banks to realize the full extent of their losses and let the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) shut down insolvent institutions and re-open them as entirely new banks. Field also tells Farley why he thinks the Fed\u2019s current tightening of monetary policy is a mistake.\n--\nFollow Richard Field on Twitter\xa0https://twitter.com/tyillc\nFollow Jack Farley on Twitter\xa0https://rb.gy/uesguv\nFollow Forward Guidance on Twitter\xa0https://rb.gy/cy0dki\nFollow Blockworks on Twitter\xa0https://rb.gy/igyzsj___\n--\nJoin Kraken, Binance, Arrington Capital, and 2000 others in heading to Dubai this fall for Algorand's DECIPHER conference, happening November 28-30.\xa0Tickets are available now -- use code DecipherFam22 for 25% off:\xa0\xa0https://fgpodcast.link/algorand\n--\nGet top market insights and the latest in crypto news.
