Also don't forget to register for our FREE Masterclass every second Wednesday of each month at&amp;nbsp;https:\/\/jasonhartman.com\/Wednesday&amp;nbsp; Jason welcomes Christopher Leonard, a journalist and author, primarily focusing on his book,&amp;nbsp;&quot;The Lords of Easy Money: How the Federal Reserve Broke the American Economy.&quot;&amp;nbsp;The discussion centers on the&amp;nbsp;Federal Reserve's policies&amp;nbsp;since 2008, particularly&amp;nbsp;quantitative easing&amp;nbsp;and keeping&amp;nbsp;interest rates at zero, and their impact on&amp;nbsp;asset inflation, wealth inequality, and the real economy.&amp;nbsp;Leonard also briefly touches upon his other books,&amp;nbsp;&quot;Kochland&quot;&amp;nbsp;(about the Koch brothers and corporate power) and&amp;nbsp;&quot;The Meat Racket&quot;&amp;nbsp;(about monopolies in the meat industry), highlighting his interest in&amp;nbsp;powerful institutions and their influence&amp;nbsp;on American society. The interview criticizes the Fed's approach under various chairs, including Greenspan and Bernanke, and explores the broader implications of&amp;nbsp;concentrated corporate power&amp;nbsp;and the need for&amp;nbsp;structural economic change. #ChristopherLeonard #LordsOfEasyMoney #FederalReserve #EasyMoney #MoneyPrinting #QuantitativeEasing #InterestRates #GreatRecession #BenBernanke #NewDeal #WallStreet #Inflation #PriceInflation #AssetInflation #AlanGreenspan #DotComBubble #HousingBubble&amp;nbsp; #DoddFrank #DefenseIndustry #MilitaryIndustrialComplex &amp;nbsp;  Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM &amp;amp; LINKEDIN Twitter.com\/JasonHartmanROI  Instagram.com\/jasonhartman1\/  Linkedin.com\/in\/jasonhartmaninvestor\/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit:&amp;nbsp;https:\/\/www.jasonhartman.com\/ Free Class: &amp;nbsp;Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else:&amp;nbsp;http:\/\/JasonHartman.com\/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes &amp;amp; Estate Planning: http:\/\/JasonHartman.com\/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business \u2013 Free Course:&amp;nbsp;https:\/\/www.jasonhartman.com\/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https:\/\/JasonHartman.com\/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https:\/\/www.PandemicInvesting.com ","author_name":"American Monetary Association","author_url":"http:\/\/americanmonetaryassociation.hartmannetwork.libsynpro.com","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/39596465\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/item\/39596465"}
