  1. Yeah, sure, expectations. Yes, the Fed must be transparent, and it must say it will buy bonds until the economy reaches its NGDP goals.

    That said, fire-hosing hundreds of billions on dollars into the economy--real money--will have a positive impact too.

    I am not defending the fiscalists--but I am suggesting aggressive use of any means necessary to get money into the economy.
