Chris breaks down why the 2% target is nonsense, why QE is quietly creeping back, and how Washington’s spending spree—from wars to earmarks to endless bailouts—has pushed us into slow-growth inflation. Three dissents won’t change the fact: mortgage rates aren’t coming down, and the Fed is flying with a faulty dashboard.
