That is an increase from January 2009 of $1.366 trillion QE 1 and 2 were $1.2T combined so I'm not sure why this is a surprise to anyone...

Banks Pressured to Buy Government Debt http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2890296/posts
US and European regulators are essentially forcing banks to buy up their own government's debta move that could end up making the debt crisis even worse, a Citigroup analysis says.
Regulators are allowing banks to escape counting their country's debt against capital requirements and loosening other rules to create a steady market for government bonds, the study says.

The Fed has bought $1.7 Trillion Treasury Bonds and that is why the 10 year Treasury Bond interest rate is at 1.5%.
If the US Treasury had to borrow money in the market place, it would have to pay much higher interest rates.
The American public is being scammed big time by the Fed and Treasury.
We should arrest them for counterfeiting.

Of course, Romney would never do such a thing.... unless some “financial emergency” appeared ....

Reward profligacy, punish frugality. Diabolical.

Yes. But Greece refuses to fix the problem. This will likely be the last bailout. UK, Germany are broke too.

RE :”

The first emergency will be when he gets sworn in and reads the polls saying he should fix the economy fast, then the national debt $$$ will become a positive again like it was under Bush/Cheney, for Republicans anyway, for Dems it will become bad again. This is because the two parties are completely different.

It’s free money from the banks. Banks will essentially hold IOU’s just like in Social Security. A retiree I know was going down to see just where his retirement saving is, he thought cash in the bank was financial security, only to find out the bank may not have the cash, in cash.

There’s really limited places to invest capitol to beat inflation, stocks being one. Stock dividends may also be one of the limited options for a return.

For future reference. Very important data.
To: CNSNews.com
The $2.2445 trillion of that new publicly owned U.S. government debt that was purchased by the Fed, China and Japan equals 49 percent of all the new debt the U.S. government has sold to the public since Obama took office.I wonder how much of the remaining 51% was taken up by banks using that cheap money from the Fed?

This is because the two parties are completely different.No use in crying, might as well laugh. Romney knows that if he wins, voters will expect a decent economy. But interest rates have to rise some day (and the housing market still sucks), so I suspect he will want to keep the good times rolling as long as the dams hold.
