That should have been the headline of an article about Donald Kohn who is leaving the Fed’s board of governors. Kohn said that he doesn’t think the Fed could have done anything different to prevent the worst downturn in 70 years because:
“Everybody — but certainly the regulators and the markets — became complacent about the housing market and whether housing prices could ever decline across a broad front.”
He still doesn’t know that the housing crash was entirely predictable? Why are the taxpayers paying for this guy’s pension?
