In a past life I was a economist (before that, a Chinchilla in case you were wondering). This is where I write about the magic of markets and the absurdity of the financial world.

If the courts stepped in and decided these interest payments were illegal, that would certainly be a whole lotta money flying out of the Federal Reserve at once. I’m not sold on the logic that this would necessarily lead to hyperinflation. The money might fly right back into the Federal Reserve as Treasury Bills, especially if they bumped interest rates a bit. Still, an interesting story that isn’t getting coverage in the MSM.
