Beyond the gobbledegook, doesn’t this simply mean the Fed is going to print money as fast as possible?

Hyperinflation, here we come.

Is there any valid reason at all why Bernanke should't be hauled off in leg irons the minute Romney is sworn in as president?

Sorry, I do not see how buying mortgage bonds will improve the employment rate in any way

If FedGov™ is just printing money why do I have to pay Federal Taxes? Just print what you want and leave me alone!

I don’t get how these guys can keep making these decisions without the approval of US citizens???

I know that the Federal Reserve is now the #1 holder of US treasury debt, but can someone please explain to me how it is that these "QE" events are supposed to stimulate the economy? I suppose that if the Fed is buying treasuries, then they're injecting $$$ directly into the government coffers, which gives the government more money to spend... While at the same time, bringing down the actual value of our dollars.

But how does that stimulate the private sector, or is it just the government spending that's supposed to spark increased private sector commerce?

I don't get it.

QE3 will be month to month — September, October, and then terminated in November when Obama starts packing up the White House mementos.

The Fed is also doing more short-for-long-term swaps and said that it will buy other things (so-called assets), if employment doesn’t increase enough. That’s what’s happening, regardless of what we’d like. True that the debt pile will go higher with uglier consequences, but it’ll buy you more time. Use it wisely.

Just what we need: another "stimulus."

Never mind the hyperinflation it is very likely to create...

Last I checked, there was plenty of money already in circulation, it’s just that no one was actually spending it. Banks have huge reserves of cash, but aren’t lending because the risk is too high. Businesses have stacks of capital, but aren’t spending because they have no confidence that their outlay will provide any benefit. No one needs more money, except the individual, who is left out in the cold as a result, but who needs the cash most of all.
