There will be a 'reversion to the mean' and a return to the primary trends. And if it happens precipitously, it will shake the nation.

The problem with the Fed's 'stimulus' is that it is a blunt instrument, and is largely channeled by those with their hands on the financial throttle into their own pockets, and not into the productive efforts of the real economy.

'Modern Monetary Theory' merely shifts the money printing power from the Fed directly into the hands of the Treasury and the politicians.
