But damn, does anybody read books anymore?  Regardless, Lords of Easy Money gives a great explanation of the Fed's quantitative easing policy in response to the economy of 2010 that just would not bounce back after the banking/housing crisis.  I'm not done reading it yet, but since I basically knew nothing about what went on behind the scenes I'm finding it fascinating.

And the money printer keeps going brrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
