Further, he is an ardent fan of President Roosevelt and his economic ‘solutions.’ So, what’s up? It is highly unlikely that the leopard is changing his spots. Rather than assume he has, we might want to consider that his recent announcement to taper off on QE is a mere smokescreen – a tactic that will create a scare sufficient to give the Fed license to print like never before.”
