American Fortune Life

Chapter 1200 DC Cardhouse

“Son, you're amazing! ”

At home, Andy bent his knees and hugged Li Wanqing with great pride. Listening to his mother's praise, he was also very happy. After all, it was absolutely a happy thing to make his family proud of themselves.

Walked into the house, saw Grandpa, Grandma was there, naturally greeted and chatted, and a family of five officially started having a full dinner at 8: 00.

“Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for the sunshine and rain that you have given us, and make the earth produce good food, and purify this food for us, and pray in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, amen! ”

Listen to Mom and Dad, Grandpa and Grandpa's prayer before dinner, Andy punches his hands across the table, then closes his eyes and begins to pretend to pray before dinner with his family.

“Thank God for feeding me today, ask Him not to swallow at meals, ask Hiccup after meals, ask Him to absorb everything I eat, make me healthier and more handsome. Amen!”

There's no way to keep Old Smith and Grandma together, it's tradition.

After painting the cross, everyone opened their eyes, and Auston glanced at Andy without anger, while Grandma Andy just shook her loving head and smiled lightly. Though Andy's prayers were funny, God would still bless him.

Old Smith laughed, too, and grabbed a glass and looked at Andy and said, "Let's raise a glass for Andy together. ”

“Thank you. I'll keep trying to make money!” Andy raised the glass with a smile and thanked him.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh and be proud of Andy's achievements today, especially for Old Smith.

“ Honestly, Grandpa, you suddenly issued a short sale ban, but it was a tragedy for a lot of people, including me, and you can't imagine how much less money I made. ”Andy still has a lot to complain about.

Old Smith swallowed fresh veal, took a sip of red wine, and smiled softly: “As a game of rules, when Wall Street can't be played, they have to understand that all they have to do now is behave. ”

Andy's expression was slight, his mouth ripped, and there was some helpless spitting: “I'm starting to feel sorry for Paulson, who has been in an unethical position in the operation to save Wall Street, seems to have supreme control over Wall Street, but is subject to Congress, and his position is in constant jeopardy. Pfft, I'm afraid the controversy over what Paulson did in this financial crisis will never stop. ”

“Oh, it's just the beginning, Andy. I thought you could write a novel like" The Cardhouse, "and you should be able to see the essence of DC, and I think I'm being overly optimistic, outside, whether it's a financial crisis or a financial storm, in DC, it's just politics. ”

Old Smith shook his head laughingly and was very uncomfortable with his grandson's spit, “You can't get a positive review from an avoided disaster, you can't run over and say to the electorate," Hey, it's terrible, but you know what? If it wasn't for me, things would have gotten worse! ”No one has been named for it in the history of the world.

The main plans for Paulson and Bernanke are to apply to Congress for funds to purchase non-performing assets or to fund banks. Paulson tried to explain the Wall Street term, but the President obviously heard it in the clouds, but I knew that the President and I had the same idea that, as an elephant party who was strongly inclined to let the market solve the problem, the President had intuitive resistance to Paulson and Bernanke's plans.

Saving Wall Street businesses exposes those involved in decision-making to moral risks, leaving innocent NaSHUIs to bear the consequences for greedy humanity and failed business models, and potentially encouraging the creation of derivatives that take huge risks to earn huge returns, because if gambling is lost, governments will come out to close. This is unacceptable to us, so on the Lehman issue, we let ourselves die, even if it makes the little fly shoe president uncomfortable... ”

“What about AIG?” Andy asked back.

“Things have evolved somewhat beyond imagination, and the chain reaction does pose a risk of financial collapse, and once the financial sector is paralysed, the paralysis will affect all industries because of its industrial attributes, and unemployment will rise to a rare level in history. No one can afford to take responsibility for such risks. ”

Andy looked at an old Smith with a flat face, slightly pulled the corner of his mouth, raised his hand to make a surrender, and shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, well, what if the Donkey Party rejects the next bailout plan? “

“For us it is a pleasure to see all the consequences, naturally borne by the Donkey Party, so that McCain may easily enter the White House. Unfortunately, neither Nancy nor O'Negroes would be that stupid.” Old Smith said faintly that it seemed that the extinction of a hundred or two years of companies was not within his grasp.

Andy couldn't help laughing. He looked like he was obeying you. DC was all over the pit, and everyone was not even on the line.

“Okay, now it's dinner time, don't take the job home...” Grandma Andy saw the look on her grandson's face and stopped the conversation in time and the family started talking about the easy conversation.

Only Auston was a little depressed. Although he was happy to see his evil son eat, he instantly discovered that he had lost his presence. The whole process had to be listened to honestly, which forced him to vomit blood depressingly.

At the end of dinner, in the living room, Andy and Old Smith, Auston sat on the couch drinking coffee and chatting, and Old Smith added some comments and flaws to the second issue of The Cardhouse.

“Overall, volume two is too dark and characters tend to be more patterned, with more inversions but more logical loopholes, such as Frank pushing Zoe down the subway and dying.

For politicians, the risk of killing one's own person is too great and does not correspond to the personality of the connoisseur. Some people will of course have a fondness for xing, but at least there has to be a mattress, and if politicians are as temporarily motivated as rock stars to treat their subordinates as bone rou skins, he can't mix too long in the official arena... ”

Old Smith didn't say anything half-covered, he said his point very bluntly, "Most importantly, Andy, nobody here can win all the time, nobody in your book can seem to be the same as Frank's banner drums, whether they're enemies or people he's blindfolded and foolishly exploited, how is that possible? Unless, as you say, you bring your own retarded halo, you can make everyone else think you're stupid... ”

“Pfft -”

Auston, who was drinking coffee, couldn't hold it, laughed directly, and Andy had a very embarrassing twitch in the corner of his mouth, okay, just to save time, he just repeated it, and every plot in the play turned into text, and there were some unreasonable things to be considered for correction, and it was a moral one, and seven minutes was really three minutes off to add drama.

“Well, I'm going to get Frank some retribution and punishment, if not for the so-called“ justice, "for the audience.” Andy shook his head and laughed.

“Oh, I asked someone to send you some information, to be honest, some ideas really inspired me, and I have to say, there is a certain amount of operational xing.” Old Smith smiled.

Andy blinked a little uncertain, looked at Old Smith, and Old Smith shook his hand with a smile, ignored Andy's adoration, took a document out of his side bag and handed it to Andy, and said, "This is the latest decision of the Federal Reserve Board, take a look. ”

Andy hesitated and looked at Old Smith and said, "Do I look okay? ”

“Son of a bitch, I know those things better than you do.” Old Smith was laughed at directly by Andy's questioning and scolded in disgust.

Andy shrugged, picked up the file and looked up quickly. The document reads as follows: "At the regular decision-making session of the Federal Reserve Council of the State, it was again decided to maintain the interest rate of the Federal Fund, that is, the rate of overnight borrowing by commercial banks, at the current rate of 2 per cent. This is undoubtedly unexpected, as everyone thinks, that the Fed will cut interest rates by 0.25 or even 0.5 percentage points.

“Looks like tomorrow's stock market is about to rebound!” Close the file, Andy squints his eyes and smiles at Old Smith, speaking with certainty.
