Remember when they said they stopped printing money around 2022…
Yeah, they never stopped. They just found a way to hide it. This is why we can't afford anything. We've been getting silently robbed for 5 years straight.
ss: currency debasement causes inflation and inflation is a tax on everyone that isnt rich.

16 billion? But WHY? It won’t get to me because:
The $16 billion you’re referring to was not new large-scale QE in the old sense.
Instead, it was a liquidity operation — the Federal Reserve supplied money overnight to banks through something called repo operations (repurchase agreements):
Banks temporarily swap short-term Treasury securities for cash from the Fed,
This helps keep bank reserves and overnight rates stable.
It’s a short-term liquidity fix, not a full macroeconomic stimulus like QE programs in 2008 or 2020.
So the recent injection is mainly about keeping the banking system functioning smoothly and avoiding funding stress, not about “printing money” to boost the entire economy.
The Fed injected over 9 trillion dollars from 2008 to 2022/23
( COVID, QE 1,2,3).
Banks under stress isn’t a good or even new thing.
Banks under stress= rate cut normally and that would help the inflation that’s coming due to Oil.
Banks may merge
But 16 billion is peanuts so don’t panic
