ValueMaven Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 This book was on Chairman Jay Powell's desk during his interview with 60mins last night (4/11/21). I have not read this book - but if Jay is reading it. I will read it. https://yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300244441/first-responders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValueMaven Posted April 12, 2021 Author Share Posted April 12, 2021 I bought it as well. Coming tomorrow - will know more then. Even for a value guy like me - I can splurged on $1.30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 It’s up to a $1.37 now! I have prime so free shipping too. Something must be wrong on the amazon site for a relatively new book to be priced like this. Anyways, it’s hard to resist at this price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cigarbutt Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 For those interested in this book, the Big Three had authored a previous collection of essays and had used the label of "firefighters". It looks like some suggested that they were fighting, to some extent, something that they had started (some even used the label arsonists). So, since controlling the message is so important, using the first responders' image in this day and age makes a lot of sense. Don't fight the Fed, they say.
