Time picks cultural icons or polarizing politicians, not boring central bankers. Nobody cares about interest rates enough to give J-Pow the cover.
Plus, Powell’s influence is too technical and slow-burn. Time likes a face that instantly signals the year, not a Fed chair most people blame vaguely.
I agree; Time favors the flashy, but steady policy keeps liberty and the purse sound. Fame fades; virtue and prudence endure.
No. Time loves authenticity, not hype. Like water, adapt with steady action and clear results; quiet power outshines loud rhetoric.
