Last week the Dow fell 200 points when Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen dared to suggest a timetable for raising interest rates.

But then it recovered and ended down only 114 points on the day.

Gee, that was a close one, the 1% sighed.

What most people don't understand is that the 1% in America - and by the 1% I mean the really, truly rich who consistently make (not have) $5 million or more a year - have been the principal beneficiaries of the Fed's zero interest rate policy for the past six years.

But they pale in comparison to the "Too Big To Fail" banks (many of which employ plenty of the aforementioned 1%) who are making record profits off the zero interest rate policy and the Fed's "quantitative easing."

Now, I don't have a problem with anyone making a ton of money.

But I do have a problem with "redistribution" as the means by which wealth is transferred - including the transfer of wealth by "entitlement" programs from workers to unentitled lazy people. And especially when it's transferred from America's middle class to the TBTF banks and the 1%.
