Your mistake is in thinking correlation is causation. The US economy would have recovered without bank bailouts and without money printing and without low interest rates. All those stimulus measures did was borrow a shitload from the future and impoverish the 99% today, just so the 1% could get a little wealthier. So on behalf of the 1%, I thank you for your largesse. I still don't think it's fair to the 99%, but since you all have convinced yourself that enriching us is good for you and clearly I can't dissuade you, I guess I'll continue to laugh all the way to the bank. Oh and btw, money printing DOES buy time, especially for the country with the reserve currency. It won't do much for Europe, other than drive some serious inflation. I wish them luck, but they will be Japan soon enough.
