(24,979 posts)Basically, we inject money into a bubble, corrupting the economy while extracting asset inflation. Or some such.
Because that's the other thing about this: it's even more short-sighted than that it's going to contribute to a collapse of biospheric support for civilization. As the reserves will be depleted very quickly (and former fake estimates are revised), it's going to be another inflated asset bubble for a few years and then collapse like MBS did.
