the Fed is fighting off deflation and the failure of tbtf multinational banks, not just U.S. bigs. May work out to be the best thing, we will see but either way the extraordinary measures have been a boon for the elites who front run. If the dilution solution plan works and deflation is snuffed out, we will see if inflation can be controlled when all the ballance sheet billions and trillions gain escape velocity into the general economy. In the mean time I don' know about you but I have been having to pay a lot more at the grocery store, gas pumps, medical care, college tuition and stocks are getting some strong inflation. The easy money always goes somewhere except to us dumb masses. Uh, "this" has been going on for 100 years. 1913 we got the private bank Federal Reserve and Income Tax.
