No problem we'll just print more money. This won't have any effect on inflation.

Why bother with a bill. Just declare everything free, that’s what this is coming to. But you definitely don’t need a gun

Explain in any manner using data post the 1970s in any developed market and not some ridiculous academic textbook why it will.

I'm all ears.

I'm hoping it's the home mortgage forgiveness act.

I just bought a big expensive home, sign me up for that! All jokes aside this CV is going to have decades long effect on the USA. My kids will be staring at a avalanche of debt with no hope of recovery.

So with every single developed market doing the EXACT same thing, keep in mind the currency is any pressure point of relief for an oversupply of money.

And every emerging market requiring a secular declining currency due to export reliance (outside of India and Brazil).

Plus the entire game of effective currency rates.

Plus the fact the Fed just bought 1.6tn in Treasuries and MBS over the past month alone, where interest is remitted back to the Treasury.

Explain how your kids are playing for this.

You would figure with the Fed's balance sheet going from 1tn in 2008 to 6tn today that the dollar would be weaker huh... but its over OVER 30% in that time.

It’ll soon be over 10 trillion.
Stay tuned.

The poliboard irks me so much. I actually support Donald Trump. Not all of his policies, nor should anybody support all of any politician's policies. But I like a lot of what he's done/doing.

But the complete fricking ignorance of this board to the global financial system is fricking ulcer inducing.

Plus, we've only increased the debt like 10% with this virus stuff. If an "avalanche" was your worry, you're pretty late to the party.

Whoa. Blast from the past.

What’s your take on all of this? Mostly the impact on the markets long- term.

Cool.

Where do you want to bet the dollar is then? The currency that the Fed just setup a complete supply pipe via the FIMA repo facility a couple days ago?

This is awesome. Let’s just print money to fix all our problems. Why didn’t we think of this before?
