Why can't money just always get funnier?
If Central Banks guarantee to always pay more for bonds than what the Federal Government sold them for - what difference does it make if the interest rate is 0% or -5%? It's still some fixed, semi-guaranteed return.
Inequality doesn't seem to be a major talking point in any major economy despite the fact that we surpassed The Belle Epoch peak a couple years ago.
The masses don't seem concerned that inequality is sky rocketing. Almost everywhere >50% of people own homes -> A lot of them on a lot of leverage. Why should they care if Jeff Bezos is making >$70Bn a year on paper - when they're also making more on paper than they do working their jobs?
Until the homeownership rate starts to plummet - I don't see why >50% will ever care. And if the homeowership rate does plummet - why can't the government just Federally back negative-percent-down, interest-only loans to increase homeownership and inflate housing prices more (both of these exist already in other countries)?
Things can always get funnier.
You know what's not going to happen... The government just sit back and watch 80% of the world's wealth disappear.
