which is one reason they will not raise interest rates.
All the action has been from the FED for quite some time now,
and they are happily buying up the banks worthless morgages.
by issuing more debt.

How long will it take the snake to consume itself at the rate of 85 billion a month Fed purchases?
Which is to say, 85 billion a month of ..debt?
