| 2009-04-28 21:55:03 |
As strange as that sounds, many moons ago I mentioned that the Fed, led by Ben Bernanke, would love nothing more than to pay people to borrow money and a study released yesterday proves I was right. The fact is that Big Ben wants inflation so bad that he would be willing to pay others [...]...
