Gimme 50, Ben! million , that is. I can take it.
The McDonald's $1 menu is gone.
The Fed has to go. I hope the turning political tides sweep them out to sea. Jefferson was right.
Hmmmmm....can’t....figure out.....what.....could....help expand the economy.
Must be my shoddy education in math, physics, and EE.
Guess I should concede control of the economy to Harvard flunkouts.
Yeah, that’s the ticket.
Fed prepares to kick the crap out of the economy
This won’t work...again.
Throwing cash at this just cheapens the cash. Doesn’t create anything.
Gee...if only we still had a big manufacturing base to actually create some real wealth....
They haven’t learned that Keynesianism is idiocy??
It will give the big banks a chance to unload garbage paper.
A better solution would a be a bonfire of a lot of the FedZilla and StateZillas regulatory and legal codes, can’t count them anymore, you gotta weigh them.
Good grief. They pass legislation that comes down hard on Wall Street, business, investment... and then seek to overcome that by pumping in trillions.
Just pass decent legislation that backs off these insane policies and watch our economy thrive.
That would take investment
But we’re punishing investment these days
The Fed needs to be abolished.
The Fed owns less than $835 billion in Treasury bonds.
Wait until the VAT tax gets its legs.. lol
Estimates are made of anywhere from 5 to 15 trillion to turn things around..
madness... pure simple madness
Gubamint needs to shrink its roles not grow them..
The money printed to purchase those MBS will end up in the Excess Reserve accounts of the major banks instead of circulating in our economy - just like QE 1.
Any interest from those still paying on any of the MBS will be used to purchase Treasury securities - but this will not increase the money supply, since it's just cycling money in the back door and out the front door.
In short, the Fed will be purchasing between $500 billion and $1 trillion of securities - but those purchases will not increase the money supply of our economy.
Instead, the purchases will continue the largest transfer of wealth ever perpetrated upon mankind.
I've written more about it for those that care to read it:
The Fed's Ties to Real Estate Fraud
The Fed's actions will not increase the nation's circulating money supply one iota, even though the markets will interpret it that way.

Sorry for the duplicate. I was sure I only hit the post button once.
So giving the banks free money and paying them to borrow it back isn’t working? Lets do it more!
Who is doing that? You have a link?
Not now, I’m using my cell phone. It is no secret that the Fed loans to banks for an effective interest rate of zero.
