Loose monetary policy created the housing and stock bubbles of the last decade, the bursting of which almost blew up the economy. Apparently for Bernanke and his cohorts, almost isn’t good enough.

Not only are they pushing mortgage rates down to historical lows but now they are buying all the loans! - in marketplayground.com
