Is this the real 'make America Great Again' masterstroke - to nullify the debt stranglehold the world is in, that kept the Obama economy at less than 3% growth, that keeps the economy on 'Quantitative Easing' life support for a whole decade now ?

This is really dumb. Life support is bad thing? Would you rather have an economy on life support or a dead economy? That's just another way of saying with QE the patient would be dead. The Fed's balance sheet is still high, but QE ended in 2014 and the patient is up and walking around.

Fed haters were claiming QE would destroy the economy. It didn't happen.

Fed haters were saying QE would leading to hyperinflation. It didn't happen.

Fed haters were saying the dollar would be worthless. It didn't happen.

Fed haters were saying with QE gold was a better investment than stocks. It was not.

Without interventions of many kinds the Financial Crisis would have developed into a full on Depression.

Every hated the bailouts, but they stopped the economy from dropping like a stone and the government has actually made money on the bailouts. 88 billion dollars so far https://projects.propublica.org/bailout/
