The unleashing of QE3–unlimited money-printing in support of the financial Status Quo– is proof the Fed has failed, failed, failed. If anything the Fed has done in the past four years [...] The country “came very close to exiting the euro”
Antonis Samaras, the prime minister of Greece, says the European Central Bank’s decision to start buying eurozone bonds has proved the beleaguered country must stay in the euro.
