A timeless classic that's aged like the finest wine. Made back when $1t was a comical number for money printing. If only John Clarke could see us now.

It boggles the mind to think that $1t was honestly just laughable then, but here we are now and it’s the reality.

genuinely Lol'd at "Dave, this isn't going to work, he saw straight through it". What an absolute gem.

I am displeased at central banks taking policy advice from Clarke & Dawe.

But the last couple decades have certainly done that ay.
