Bideni kõrgeima pangaregulaatori kandidaat soovib lõpetada panganduse, nagu me seda teame

President Biden’s pick for Comptroller of the Currency is quite the anti-capitalist.

Cornell University law professor Saule Omarova, who proposed ‘ending banking as we know it,’ and that radical change to the system would make the institution ‘more inclusive, efficient and stable,’ on tule alla sattunud tema äärmuslike vaadete üle.

“Until I came to the US, I couldn’t imagine that things like gender pay gap still existed in today’s world. Say what you will about old USSR, there was no gender pay gap there. Market doesn’t always ‘know best,’” Omarova tweeted in 2019, adding (after receiving harsh criticism) “I never claimed women and men were treated absolutely equally in every facet of Soviet life. But people’s salaries were set (by the state) in a gender-blind manner. And all women got very generous maternity benefits. Both things are still a pipe dream in our society!”

What’s more, Omarova toetab mitmeid progressiivseid ettepanekuid – including the Green New Deal, and the creation of a giant bureaucracy she dubbed the Riiklik Investeerimisamet, which would – among other things – coordinate the long term economic strategy for the United States with upcoming infrastructure developments, according to the Washingtoni vaba majakas. It would also manage a “big and bold” climate agenda.

The authority would have a congressionally approved governing board and regional offices across the country. In addition to developing roads, bridges, and other traditional infrastructure projects, the authority would fund affordable housing, public transit, and clean energy projects, as well as “climate change mitigation solutions,” Omarova ütles kongressile sellel aastal. - Tasuta majakas

Kui Wall Street Journal editorial board notes, “Pr Omarova arvab, et varade hinnad, palgaastmed, kapital ja laenud peaksid olema föderaalvalitsuse dikteeritud. In two papers, she has advocated expanding the Federal Reserve’s mandate to include the price levels of “systemically important financial assets” as well as worker wages. As they like to say at the modern university, from each according to her ability to each according to her needs.”

Hiljutises raamatus "The People's Ledger" ta tegi ettepaneku, et Föderaalreserv võtaks üle tarbijate pangahoiused, "lõpetaks tõhusalt pangandus", nagu me seda teame,” ja saada „ülimaks avalikuks platvormiks rahaliste ressursside genereerimiseks, moduleerimiseks ja jaotamiseks kaasaegses majanduses”. Ta sooviks ka, et USA looks keskpanga digitaalse valuuta – nagu seda teevad Venezuela ja Hiina"Meie finantssüsteemi ümberkujundamiseks ja Fedi bilansi muutmiseks tõeliseks rahvaraamatuks", säutsus ta sel suvel. Mis võib valesti minna? -WSJ

Omarova also wants to create a “Public Interest Council” of “highly paid” academics kellel oleks kohtukutse võim reguleerivate asutuste, sealhulgas Föderaalreservi üle.

Varasematel päevadel töötas Omarova Bushi administratsiooni rahandusosakonnas.

As The Washington Free Beacon märgib, Omarova’s policies have won her accolades from prominent progressive lawmakers and special interest groups. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) said Omarova’s nomination was “tremendous news.” The Sierra Club said Omarova would help the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency fight against “climate chaos” and set up “guardrails against Wall Street’s risky fossil fuel investments.”

Huvitav, Wall Street Journali aruanded et Biden nimetas pr Omarova kandidaadiks rahandusministri Janet Yelleni vastuväidete tõttu, kellele kontrolör allub. Üks teooria, mida nad selle veidra kandidatuuri jaoks soovitavad, on see, et hr Biden püüab seda teha rahustada edumeelseid, sest ta kavatseb Jerome Powelli uuesti Föderaalreservi esimeheks nimetada.
