Monetizing our debt, and no one has the guts to stand up and say it. The road to economic perdition and not a peep from anybody...until it’s too late...and then the finger pointing will be fierce.

That's right: just keep monetizing the debt and everything will be just fine...

Printing $$$ at unprecedented pace.
It will be interesting to see what happens to inflation. And interesting to see what happens to rates on Treasuries when the Fed buying is eliminated.
My money is on rates/inflation rising.

I have no proof of who it was, but there are only two parties to a monetary trade, and that is a seller and a buyer. China told Obumbler that they would do that so perhaps they are sending him a message.
