I thought that interest rates would have risen and we would have some inflation by now. But I guess there’s a lot of other factors; no velocity and other countries worse than us.

Interest rates can’t rise, because of interest rate swaps/derivatives.

If interest rates go up, the TBTF’s would find themselves owing hundreds of billions of dollars of coverage.

They truly painted themselves into a corner with that one!!
