Interview Paul Craig Roberts: Herland Report TV host, Hanne Herland speaks to Paul Craig Roberts about financial crisis, debt in America and problems with the Central Bank system.
“How is it that when we have a debt crisis, we want to create more debt? The reason seems to be that the purpose of a Central Bank is to serve a handful of big banks, which they call “banks too big to fail,” says Dr. Paul Craig Roberts.
He is chairman of The Institute for Political Economy, former editor of Wall Street Journal, a well-known author of many books and a regular at The Herland Report.
“The Central Banks created a Frankenstein financial monster and we couldn’t let it fail. They keep throwing out money, money, money. And now we are doing it again.”
Program 5: Financial Crisis Looming, program 6: The Shocking Truth about Trump and the Media, program 7: The Enslavement of the Working Class.
Interview Paul Craig Roberts continues: “The reason they are too big to fail is because the Central Banks were supposed to be their regulators.”
“They have failed in their job and allowed massive mergers in the creations of these monstered financial organizations which are so large, that if they do fail, it has such horrendous effects on everybody else that we say we can’t let them fail.”
“The Central Banks created a Frankenstein financial monster and we couldn’t let it fail. They keep throwing out money, money, money. And now we are doing it again.”
“Where does this money go? Very little of it goes into the economy. It’s going into the prices of financial assets.”
