“This statement was Big News. It was such Big News that the Wall Street Journal ran a story on it. Why? Because when a regional Federal Reserve Bank president says the obvious is Big News, it means that he is opposed to tapering. It means that he thinks the counterfeiting of a trillion dollars of digital money a year is for wimps. What should the rate of counterfeiting be? He did not say. They never say. Their lips are sealed. This is what is known at the Federal Reserve as transparency. Opaqueness is when an official says something incoherent, which everyone in the media knows is incoherent, and they dutifully report as meaningful.”
