    From the article: "What do you think of the plan put in place in the U.S. to deal with our financial crisis?"

    Reply to @Old_Joe: "To resolve the issue, the Federal Reserve has engineered a negative real-interest-rate environment combined with higher rates of inflation. It is trying to facilitate an adjustment process in which resources are taken from savers and handed to debtors."
