JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) (http://www.bloomberg.com/quote/JPM:US) and Citigroup Inc. are among at least five banks urging big clients in the U.S. to park cash elsewhere as new rules make it onerous to hold certain deposits, the Wall Street Journal reported.

As Keynesian economists and Democrats continue to fret about the imagined lack of demand in the economy, describing our current situation as “secular stagnation,” many are calling for even more extraordinary monetary policies. We already have negative real interest rates at the short end of the yield curve, but some want to consider even negative nominal rates. However, such policies will not stimulate the economy, but are just a backdoor way to accomplish even more income redistribution.
Go to your local bank, look at the savings rates on a 12 month CD, my bank offers .15 percent, meanwhile they charge 15% against your credit card balance. Do banks send you notices about raising your credit card limits, balance transfers, and/or applications for new cards. We used to be a nation of savers, now they're pushing the public to spend discretionary income on credit card payments or place your money with utterly corrupt Wall Street brokers.
