Greenspan on deposit insurance

usatoday.com

why doesn't just craft a law to require people to stand on their heads twice a day and have a Fed intern come by and pick it up to buy discarded routers and pc's? it's okay to use billions to prop markets with other people's money but it's not okay for people to pay banks for deposit insurance.

Yesterday's "upgrade" of the semi equipment sector was one of the nicest gifts ever handed to us on a platter by our friends on Wall St. I sent that twerp analyst a nice bottle of 1999 formaldehyde for his evening meal as a token of my appreciation. (g)

Unimagineable that anybody would lend any credence to his blarney, but I guess there really are several born every minute.

Best, Earlie
