It's like that one aunt at the family reunion, always printing money and eating all the snacks. You know, the one who just can't seem to stop.
Quantitative Easing 2.0, the sequel, is here and it's just as bad as the first. In fact, it's worse. Like, have you seen the interest rates lately? It's like they're trying to make everyone's money disappear.
But wait, there's more! QE 2.0 comes with a special bonus feature: the ability to print even more money! Because, you know, that's exactly what we needed. More of the same.
And don't even get me started on the side effects. Hyperinflation, anyone? Yeah, that's just what we needed. More of that.
So, what's the plan, then? Well, apparently, the plan is to just keep printing and praying that someone, anyone, will magically fix this mess. You know, the classic "throwing more money at the problem" approach.
But don't worry, folks. We'll just keep on truckin', because after all, what's a little hyperinflation, a few interest rates, and a dash of economic uncertainty when you're living in a world where the money grows on trees (or at least, that's what we're told).
