Quantitative Easing


The funniest gags are rarely fair to their subject matter (and this is no exception), but this is funny and hits the mark.

My favourite lines:

"R: What does that mean?
L: It means they are going to print a ton of money.
R: So why do they call it the Quantitative Easing? Why don't they just call it the printing money?
L: Because the printing money is the last refuge of failed empires and banana republics, and the Fed doesn't want to admit that this is their only idea."

Nothing makes a burn sting more than having it delivered by a cartoon animal!
