Recently, there has been a lot of debate and discussion regarding President Biden’s alleged bailout of Silicon Valley Bank. However, President Biden has categorically denied these allegations, and claimed that he had nothing to do with any such bailout. However, some experts have argued that this is indeed a bailout, and that the President is simply trying to hide it.

The controversy started when it was reported that Silicon Valley Bank, which is one of the largest banks in the technology industry, was facing financial difficulties. Some analysts claimed that the bank was on the verge of collapse, and that it needed urgent financial assistance to stay afloat. In response to these reports, President Biden denied that he had any intentions of bailing out the bank.

However, some experts are not convinced, and they believe that there is ample evidence to suggest that what the President is calling a “rescue package” is in fact a bailout. Matt Stoller, a prominent economist and writer, has argued that the President is simply using rhetorical tricks to obscure the fact that he is providing a bailout to Silicon Valley Bank.

According to Stoller, the President’s proposal to provide liquidity to the bank, by purchasing its assets, is essentially a bailout. He argues that by doing so, the President is essentially propping up the bank artificially, and preventing a market correction from taking place. In his view, this is exactly what a bailout is – an artificial intervention in the market, aimed at preventing a correction that would otherwise be forced by market forces.

Stoller has also pointed out that there is a long history of government bailouts in the finance industry, and that this latest move is simply a continuation of that trend. According to Stoller, the President’s denial of a bailout is simply an attempt to distance himself from the unpopular practice of government bailouts, and to avoid the negative political consequences that would come with acknowledging such a move.

In conclusion, while President Biden denies that he’s giving Silicon Valley Bank a bailout, there are some who argue that this is indeed the case. Whether it’s a bailout or a “rescue package,” the fact remains that the President is intervening in the market in ways that could be deemed artificial. While there may be good reasons for doing so, it’s important to acknowledge and debate the underlying issues, rather than simply hiding behind rhetorical tricks and semantics.

    Biden Lies. A daily occurrence.

  2. Nunya Bidnis

    Who authorized the money for this bailout? Isn't Congress supposed to control the purse strjngs?

  3. muster seeds

    Every time Biden said bailout it mean more money to his pockets…

  4. Michael Knight

    What a giant con. Free money, bail outs, and the rich get richer. Populist unite!!!!!! The left and right need to give each other wins and take losses in order to take down the elites.

  5. RMPsumma

    Of course it's a bailout and, worse, it's bailing out his millionaire donors. Biden extends his evil daily.

  6. Pepperdine 19

    We should call it Taxpayer BailOut Not Government bailout

  7. space munky

    The federal reserve is not federal, and there are no reserves! The book :Secrets of the Federal Reserve by eustace mullins, written in 1952 and mentored by ezra Pound, exposes this. American banking was taken over in 1913 by a cabal of bankers with compliance of woodrow Wilson!

  8. Patrick Smith

    "The American banking system is safe." It should be much better than that.

  9. Kaue Tadaieski

    It is a bailout, not a full out one like in 2008, butvIt still is. This is bad.

  10. Mad Dog

    Everything this guy said is a bad idea.
    Oh now I know why he says trust the government because he's a dirty Democrat

  11. spacefieldtime

    Yea my biz failed also, no bailout though, hands out play tough Joe

  12. mattthemouse1

    Why would I bank where the government can look at everything I do with my money?

  13. Juan Gonzales

    Ukraine, as long as it takes .Banks as much as it takes, Ohio, we’re working on it.

  14. mattthemouse1

    Maybe we should ask the San Francisco Fed why they weren’t supervising SVB like they were supposed to.

  15. Narf03

    if the bank cant use your money to gamble then they wont give you any interest, plus they will charge you for using their service

  16. USMC2A

    Rising interest rates, out-of-control inflation, a war in Ukraine the US should not be involved in, and no student loan relief but it's Biden and the Dems to the rescue of billionaires and their Silicon Vally bank that supports Democratic political candidates and BLM.

  17. Steve Conrad

    AOC your dressmaker is calling

  18. Pat B

    Yes take confidence from a guy that can barely read a teleprompter as he LIES yet again to TAXPAYERS. Good thing he sent $100 Billion to Ukraine.

  19. KC Thunder

    Just like he twisted and spun the definition of "recession" last year

    :Biden assures that banks will be fine." Now I'm really worried…

  21. Protasio Canalita

    Hooray, the woke and rich folks will get more money soon. Joe Biden is always doing a lie. We are powerless with his deeds. Let us move out if it is impossible to carry the burden of those banks. We don't have that kind of money and besides we just got hit by the covid lockdowns. We got nothing. It is great that the rich people will well funded,I will just leave it at that.
