If The Fed Is Printing Dollars, Why Aren’t Interes Rates Going Up?
Once again I’ve come across an article where a political pundit points to the very low interest rate environment as proof that the Fed’s current actions (printing dollars) and the US debt are not a problem.
This view is wrong, bad, harmful, blatantly false, and everything else that means misguided either willfully or bilndly.
Intersest rates are low because 1) individual investors are shedding stocks as fast as humanly possible (see record outflows from equity mutual funds) in an effort to get off this rollercoaster ride, and 2) the Fed is printing dollars and using them to BUY TREASURIES, which of course adds a bidder with unlimited funds and no regard for interest rate received to the auction.
You looking for inflation? Check out the value of your dollar, the price of gold, oil, corn, wheat, steel, really most anything that is a raw input priced in dollars that is used internationally.
Printing dollars hurts. Running deficits hurts.
Now, we believe that we are in a broader deflationary trend, with a fight going on between the monetary forces of printing/borrowing more and the contraction of dollars due to debt writedowns and paydowns without new loans. This fight will eventually be won by the deflationists, but that doesn’t mean that there won’t be an ugly game of tug-of-war for a while.

Today’s Dollar is worth 5% of what it was in 1913 BEFORE the wealhiest 1% of white Americans conspired to created the Federal Reserve. Today, they use worthless dollars to by the US Congress and Courts to ensure the perpetuation of their wealth.
They’e ‘gamed’ the Market, driven over 18 MILLION American families from their homes, robbed Taxpayers of more than $23 TRILLION, created a national debt in the 10′s of TRILLIONS and pillaged ever Resource-Rich Non-White nation with impunity.
And still citizens of the World let them live…
