FRBも決して一枚岩ではない､

Volcker vs Bernanke
Monday, April 14, 2008  by Greg Mankiw

This looks like it is turning into a real grudge match.
報復合戦の様相を呈してきた､

First , "Paul Volcker, the imposing former Fed chief who felled the runaway inflation of the 1980s, chided the current chairman, Ben Bernanke, for toeing 'the very edge' of the bank's legal authority in orchestrating last month's bailout of the beleaguered investment bank Bear Stearns."

Next , according to rumor, Volcker is quoted as calling Ben "a one-termer."

Finally , in his ersatz blog, Bernanke announces retaliation:
I hereby declare Paul Volcker an enemy combatant to the economy of the United States of America and issue a warrant for his arrest. We're in the process of building our first Federal Reserve Prison

(大意で)

さらに､噂では､ボルカー氏はバーナンキ議長は今期限りだろうと言っているとか､

対するバーナンキ議長､彼の （影武者の）
ボルカー氏はアメリカ経済の敵だ､逮捕状を出す､今我々はFRB専用の最初の刑務所を造っている所だと､

FRB専用の刑務所建設はぜひ､実現させてほしいものだな､
