This keynote takes the attendees back to the beginning of banking in America. It chronicles how government has used (and abused) banking to finance its wars and social programs and how crises brought about by ill-conceived government actions have been “solved” by even more ill-conceived actions. The program will provide perspective on American institutions, particularly the Federal Reserve, and how its impact and that of low interest rates affects all of us. Filled with humorous anecdotes, this presentation is simultaneously educational, inspiring, and entertaining. (It ends with why some financial experts expect a market meltdown in October 2021). ...less
