PART 01: In the 1930s the economic devastation was so bad that only radical solutions remained. But then, like now in our Silent Depression, radicalism does not mean success necessarily. The key is to first understand why the devastation in the first place. Otherwise? Dictators.

PART 02: Starting in October 2019 the Federal Reserve began to buy US Treasury Bills, EXCLUSIVELY. Starting in March 2020 the Fed stopped buy UST Bills, EXPLICITLY. What happened in between? Only the second Global Financial Crisis. 'Oops! Sorry we stripped the system of collateral.'

PART 03: Claudius Ptolemy, a genius, reconciled a geocentric model of the Universe with unexpected planetary paths with "deferent", "epicycle", "eccentric" and "equant" movements. Ben Bernanke, a technocrat, reconciled the unexpected path of bond yields with "term premia".
