Not true. But I can give you a real impartial statement.

Dennis Kelleher, chief executive officer of Better Markets, a nonprofit that advocates financial reform, has always been a vehement opponent of the 2018 rollback law, but he said in a Monday interview that the law likely had only a “modest impact” on SVB’s collapse.

The situation in Russia

Under current legislation in the Russian Federation, criminal liability for crimes against freedom of the person is provided by articles on “abduction of a person”, “unlawful deprivation of liberty”, “human trafficking” and “use of slave labour”.

According to data from the Walk Free Foundation, Russia entered the top ten countries in terms of absolute number of slaves....

In regions of the North Caucasus, the practice of bride abduction continues even today.

Yeah I was thinking it was interesting that mark only focused on the treasury bond investments and ignored the others

slavery definitely isn't a concept limited to race

pick any point in history, some group has always been trying to enslave another group.

this modern age we live in knows the least slavery of all human history, it seems like progress.

again I'll point you at china, forget the uyghurs, got any idea how many north korean women are indentured servants/sex slaves for chinese men?

It's alot. every female NK refugee talks about that shit going on. the Chinese abduct women from all over asia to feed their male population discrepancy.

but it's white people's fault somehow, right?

Know your passion since you are Korean on the subject but the question was where slavery is and yeah it isn't just the orient (regardless of how prominent it is there).

The most far reaching Wall Street reform in history, Dodd-Frank will prevent the excessive risk-taking that led to the financial crisis.

Are treasury bills a risky investment?

Treasury bills (T-bills) are generally considered to be one of the safest investments available. This is because T-bills are issued and backed by the U.S. government, which is considered to have one of the strongest credit ratings in the world.

T-bills are short-term debt securities with maturities of less than one year, typically ranging from four weeks to 52 weeks. They are sold at a discount from their face value and do not pay regular interest payments. Instead, investors earn a return by buying the T-bill at a discount and receiving the full face value of the security when it matures.

Because T-bills are considered to be very low-risk, they typically offer lower returns than other investments that carry more risk, such as stocks or corporate bonds. However, T-bills are still subject to some risks, such as inflation risk and interest rate risk.

Inflation risk is the risk that the purchasing power of the money invested in T-bills will be eroded over time due to inflation. Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will affect the value of T-bills. If interest rates rise, the value of T-bills may decline, and if interest rates fall, the value of T-bills may rise.

Overall, while T-bills are not completely risk-free, they are generally considered to be a low-risk investment option that provides a predictable return.

I mean you paste eating retards are blaming some ambiguous notion of wokeness instead of the political party that gleefully voted to remove the stress testing and other regulatory requirements that would have likely prevented the bank from collapsing.
