I guess he isn’t worried about another 2008-style financial crisis either. We hadn’t seen a collapse like that in 70 years.

On this date in 2020, @SecYellen gave not one but two speeches, for a mere $67,500 each, to Fiserv and Ares Management.
Totaling $135,000, Yellen made about 4x the median U.S. annual wage. In one day.
We need more inflation.https://t.co/enFZunBYKdhttps://t.co/1I1n7mrKgP pic.twitter.com/TVH9KJiMuh
