Quantitative Easing = kick the can down the road.

Every financial minister that oversaw a hyperinflation crisis has said he was doing God's work.

I agree.

The system has become unsustainable.

We had our chances but we allowed our "betters" to take control and steer the course.

All that came of that was kicking the can down the road for the next generations to deal with and now there is no escaping the bill coming due.

Let it all crash. We are in Weimar Republic territory. Holding out further only puts us in jeopardy for much worse.

Interesting read. FDR was an obstinate, sick old man. Much like Biden.

OTOH, his coziness with Stalin began over a decade earlier.

His visions gave us the UN and more power to China and Russia.
