That's a fancy way of saying that the Federal Reserve is going to print $600 billion fresh new dollar bils and give 'em to persons other than you to spend as those persons see fit.
This $600 billion....an amount equal to 20% of GDP....necessarily reduces the value of the money in your wallet, the purchasing power of your income. It is a tax on you, a taxation for which you have no representation. It is bigger and more significant than anything the new twits or the old twits in congress will do. Your vote this past November 2nd really didn't matter.

yeah. You don't want me voting on monetary policy, and you don't want the general population voting on monetary policy. And I don't trust your analysis any more than that of the experts saying that the state of the economy necessitates this action.
