      @@MrGotro1 Everything is driven by supply and demand. Confidence in a currency is just one strong factor that drives up demand and creates scarcity. Maybe I don't fully get what you are getting at with "classic symptom of nations with fiat currency". Even crypto is ruled by a general consensus of the existing confidence in its technology, purpose, uses, etc.

    Not 100% sure on this but I believe that in theory buying back government issued bonds where short term-interest rates are near zero bound, and thus are unlikely to be driven down by such actions, is intended to increase the price of bonds (long term investments) and decrease long term interest rates in the hope that it stimulates investments and other forms of spending.

    Watching this in late 2022 was insightful. Your criticism of QE2 seems pretty on point. It took 11 years, but you noted the role of QE2 in commodities inflation and I thought that was an excellent point. Everyone simply puts inflation down to the Ukraine-Russia conflict, supply chains, and in some countries (rising wages). The role of 11 years of loose monetary policy and QE2 is rarely mentioned or emphasised.

    Invest the money into infrastructure and stop the gross profiting of taxpayer funded project. When tax money is used for projects, wages, health benefits, and retirement is automatic. Stop the gross hoarding of profits by corporations.
    Stop government contractor bonuses when tax dallors are used.
    Put the money into the hands of wage earners!

  • @jtk1ify

    thanks for explaining what is going on.
    i think a big factor that you don't appear to mention is personal debt.
    Prior to the 2008 crash, banks were lending money to anyone who wanted it regardless of their ability to repay it, this gave the false apperance of a growing economy, but was actually a debt based economy. once that debt was called in by the banking crisis the reality was revealed, the economy was made of debt.
    so the question that arises is where did all the debt money go, and where is all the QE2 money going?
    i suspect the answer is that in never really physically existed and the majority of people will never see it make any positive difference to their futures, but our childen and grandchildren will be left with the bill fo QE2, just as working and unemployed people today are being made to pay for the reckless lending of money during the false boom years under the governments austerity programme

    That's properly explained Sir!
    A question: when the Central bank rates were let's say at 0%,
    the banks decided to buy Bonds with a 2% rate rather than lending money at 2% to people.
    So they would offer loan to people at >2%, right ?
    But people still did not believe in the economy (i.e. did not believe in salary increase, lower taxes and lower price to buy stuff).
    Then when the Central bank bought Bonds to increase the demand, therefore increasing the price and lowering the the yield,
    they compelled the banks to stop investing in Bonds and instead lowering the loan rate to people (let's say at

    Why would anyone who has rationally examined the operation of speculators try to stop speculation.
    Answer: - Out of an ill conceived assumption that speculation is bad when the opposite is true because speculators push prices down as well as up and this flattens out large sudden blockages in price changes which is the same thing that is argued about in this presentation of the government's action to stimulate the economy to eliminate perceived blockages.
