Can someone, other than our friend “investor,” explain to me the motivation for the secrecy behind the Fed’s ownership?

It is a bit curious, and seems to be to do much to fan the conspiracy theory flames.

What’s the wisdom behind this structure?
[/quote]

Wisdom from which perspective?

From the perspective of the entities that have ownership:
keeping your association and potential influence in the Fed secret.

From the political point of view:
see above and mix in political contributions.

From the view of the citizens:
None what so ever.

While the conspiracy theorists are largely pointing in the wrong directions, there are issues out there. The ‘monied’ don’t mind the conspiracists because they keep pointing in the wrong directions, and they can ‘work’ in the background (diversion technique).

How about:
Why is a CDS(Credit Default Swap) not considered an insurance product – despite what it does and its associated risk exposure. Who/what has an interest on keeping the current status quo with respect to CDS(s).

Why was the TARP lending done to BofA for 3.5%, but it was lent to FRE/FNM at 10%? This is ignoring the fact that congress did a bit of meddling in the running of FRE/FNM an may have some to do with the current state of both entities. At what rate was TARP money lent to GS?

During the rapid one-day drop in the stock market, why were some of the trades unwound? Who was being protected? Wouldn’t this type of protection be creating a moral hazard? (many more questions on this one item).

I find that anyone who uses the 1st grade technique of rewording/restructuring a ‘name/callsign’ in a vain attempt to discredit someone through insinuation is boorish and immature at best. It also demonstrates someone who has a lack of intellect for skillful verbal jousting. A person using their non-financial degrees to make $550k/year in the real-estate business would have the ability for some nice snappy comebacks.

Using “UC of degenerate”.. that is weak, comes from an elementary school yard, and belongs on an elementary school yard.

I will readily admit that I am not up to “Allan from Fallbrook’s” skill though.

It is a mystery isn’t it? How can a doctor be a real estate professional? Hmmmmm.
[/quote]
you mis-read. Read again.
On one hand, you stated that the use of your degrees was generating $550K of income.. this means medical field. You had eliminated finance earlier.

A few statements before, you made the implication that you are in real-estate, which does not need a doctorate.

If you are acting as a real-estate professional, you are not using your medical degrees to generate the income. The only really useful degrees here would be finance, of which you stated earlier, your degrees are NOT in finance.

Your statements are in conflict.

This was the first blog that I have written on. I didn’t think that the responses would be so verbally violent, but I guess they are.

When I blog, I concentrate on content rather than having it published.

Which is it? This is the first blog you have written on or do you do it in general?

Realize that on forums such as this, you may get back as you deliver. You are likely to not have people agree with you. If you react by quoting and repeating your contentions with an added ‘barb’ to the effect that the person is a twit for not agreeing with you.. you may get it back with added ‘english’.

They don’t mean anything as an investor except that I make 550 K per year gross income from them.
[/quote]
Humm.. considering the amount, only medical field generates that type of income from doctorates. Mostly in the area of Surgical Subspecialist. It is rare that any other field will. What seems to be a contra-indicator is that you have this much time to spend on this blog.

Your statement:
[quote investor]
, having bought and sold 7.7 million worth of real estate (both side of the sales side now)
[/quote]
would indicate that you are currently working Real Estate vs medical. The Real Estate field does not utilize doctorates. The italicized portion would be the explicit part I am referring to.
