Quote from maxpi:

Yeah, it's unreal. The gold backed US $ was settled on as the reserve currency at Bretton Woods. Then we went off the gold standard. The perceived stability of the US $ is the new gold standard. However, nobody is buying the Treasuries of late except the Fed. Is it because we have a marxist as POTUS maybe? Is it because we deregulated and now have a third worldish financial system? Stay tuned folks, more to follow...



where do you guys come up with this nonsense?

Quote from denner:

It's inevitable...the sad part is we have just as many delusional idiots on this board who would support this type of monetary "insanity". The same folks who never see inflation, who continue to argue that it was "the only course of action", etc, etc...

We'll see just how damaging 8 years of ZIRP has been well before 2015. "Zero sum" as in bailout of the financial institutions at all costs kills off many other sectors of this patchwork economy.



I support this "insanity" because it is working and it is better than the alternative. I am very concerned about present inflation and future inflation. But inflation isn't the only thing the Fed has to be concerned about.

It was "working" in 2006-07 as well, as a response to the dot.com crash...until it wasn't working a few short months later.

The problem with this ideology is that every unconventional approach is "justified" by the imagined worse case scenario.

I see 2003-2008 related to 2008-2012 as cause and effect rather than being equatable. Just a different viewpoint.
