Because it doesn't really exist. Quantitative easing means the Government buys debt from the banks so that the banks are then free to lend money to business to kick-start the economy. It isn't just about printing free money.
Sadly, and I hate to say this, but Joe is right. QE is raised against government bonds, meaning we're simply deferring the pain. I hate grandstanding, but i see no easy way out of this.... i don't think there is one, learning the lessons of history, it has been war.
