Dems Pressure Fed To Stimulate Economy Before Election

CuteOldGuy's Avatar
Yes, the Democrats want to expand the economy by increasing inflation and further devaluing of the dollar in order to help them in their bids for re-election. Rather than adopt appropriate fiscal policies, the Dems would rather risk a greater economic collapse for short term political gain.

I'll bet Bernanke, as spineless as he is, caves, so there will be a false view of growth before the election. It will collapse, the temporary growth is only for show. But we knew that, didn't we?

It's getting hard to stimulate the economy with lower interest rates. Mark Zuckerberg just refinanced his house at 1%. Maybe, they'll start paying people to take money. Wasn't it a loose monetary policy that got us into this mess?
