I can practically smell his pre-workout through all of his machismo. I stopped after my first set to drink some water and change the song I was listening to, and I feel a tap on my shoulder. I remember when I went to the gym in my hometown I was using a machine, and not even two reps into my exercise I see out of the corner of my eye a man staring at me - I choose to ignore him. They obnoxiously grunt when they lift weights, they take up the entire area with their stuff, and you can't help but feel like there's at least one who's watching you - anticipating a mistake or "checking out" your form. A female director would offer a different viewpoint for films and would be able to make a female character have her own storyline that does not depend on a man. They are not given a role where they are important characters on their own because they are often only inserted into the film as a love interest for the male lead. Most films that we see are brought to life through the eyes of a man, which leads to many films having the same basic function for their female characters. However, it was only 10 films, which is not an amount that anyone should be proud of. is the studio that has produced the most films by female directors. In the same study done by USC Annenberg, Warner Bros.
Women are just as capable as men of being a competent film director and more production companies should give them a chance to succeed. There is nothing in the Audit the Fed bill giving Congress or the executive branch any new power over monetary policy.Men have always been labeled as leaders and since the director is one of the central leaders of a film, studios and audiences feel comfortable knowing that a man was behind the story. Powell claims that bringing transparency to the Fed’s conduct of monetary policy would somehow jeopardize the Fed’s independence. Thus, not surprisingly, he is a leading opponent of Audit the Fed. Powell prefers to push his rather zealous and extremist philosophies behind the scenes. President Biden has recently nominated Sarah Bloom Raskin to the Fed board, who also has advocated for the Fed to use its power to fight climate change.Ī central bank committed to the social justice and climate change agendas will inevitably increase the Fed’s “inflation tax.” Contrary to the claims of some progressives, lower-income Americans are primary victims of this hidden and regressive tax.
President Biden did end up nominating Brainard to become vice chairman at the Fed.Ī Powell-Brainard Fed would likely use “social and climate justice” as a justification for expanding the Fed’s easy money policies. Brainard is more committed than Powell to using monetary and regulatory policies to advance the “woke” agenda. Powell, like Elizabeth Warren and other progressives, dangerously believes that the Fed should go “woke.” However, Powell is still not “woke” enough for progressives who lobbied President Joe Biden to replace Powell with Fed board member Lael Brainard, the biggest supporter of Elizabeth Warren-style regulations on the Fed board. However, even if the Fed follows through on this, interest rates will remain at historically low levels. Powell also stated that the Fed is planning to increase interest rates this year. This has caused prices to climb at a rate America has not seen in several decades.Īt his nomination hearing before the Senate Banking Committee, Powell reiterated the Fed’s intention to fight inflation by reducing its monthly 120 billion dollars purchase of Treasury and mortgage-backed securities. The Fed’s balance sheet has grown to over eight trillion dollars. Under his tenure, the Fed has kept interest rates at or near zero.
Powell is a threat to the American people. The truth is most regulations benefit large corporations by imposing costs that big businesses can easily absorb, but that their smaller competitors cannot. Senator Warren, like most progressives, clings to a fantastical notion that regulations benefit workers, consumers, and small businesses. Warren thinks Powell is dangerous because she thinks he will not be supportive enough of imposing her desired new regulations on banks and other financial institutions. I don’t often agree with Senator Warren, but I do agree with her assessment that Powell is “dangerous.” However, Warren actually doesn’t understand what makes Powell, or any Fed chairman, intrinsically dangerous to liberty and prosperity. One of the senators opposing Powell is Elizabeth Warren. The US Senate will soon vote on Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s nomination to a second term.
