I am not really educated enough in the field to give you a definite answer. From what I've learned, it isn't what people on here make it out to be. I've spoken with my PHD econ professor about some of the rhetoric about the Fed.

I think it's infeasible, but I think it's ballsy. Definitely not what the mainstream media wants to hear. He put his political career on the line to support the surge. I gotta respect him for that.
Yeah. What's your point?
