[sarcasm] Yep, let's throw some more money at it and see if it will help. What, we have none, can't stand for that, just print some more, lots moreThat should solve it. [/sarcasm]

Looky loooky while everyone was looking at AIG

Looks like the Zimbabwean school of economics prevailed at FED. Nice world we live in, when the biggest economy prints money like a third-world country. Perhaps, Robert Mugabe could become the FED´s next chairman. He´s an economic guru now - A man ahead of his time.

The day when a central bank decides to print money is one of those D-days we read about in history books. They’ve built a car with an accelerator pedal and no brakes. That’s my concern. What prices are falling besides housing and energy? With quantitative easing you can kill any deflation you wish. But then don't be surprised, when hyperinflation kills you.

Sounds like Germany, 1920ish. Not good, not good at all.

This reminds me of Germany's situation after the Great War. Chancellor Ebert authorized the mints in the Rhineland to print more money to try and even out the economy. The result: one trillion marks would be the equivalent of one American dollar.
