Dan3: "Negative real rates are not a good thing. That the FED put them in place when the economy was not wallowing in slack was a very bad thing to do."

koan: "Negative real rates (interest rates below inflation) are not only bad, they are impossible over the long run." Someone has to lose in the long run.

The way the fed are doing it, it will be the "people" who will lose.
