There's nothing "market-driven" about the way the Federal Reserve currently works. The Government takes your money and then makes a market you can't participate in, serving entities that seem to primarily thrive off of rent seeking behavior.

The entire "Too Big To Fail" period should have made this clear. We are clearly in a government regime that would prefer to control the markets through the discount window than let them be truly driven by their own forces.
