    Bernanke warns US government debt relative to GDP is “clearly unsustainable”

    And who has caused the majority of the debt by printing money: HE AND HIS FED HAVE.

    AND, he is considering more. What a moron. This is the pratt who said at the beginning he would 'throw dollar notes out of helicopters' to stimulate buying!

    He also convinced the government to give cash bonuses to stimulate the economy. Nearly everybody who got them put it in the bank or paid off a large section of their mortgages with it. Result: no buyers in the market, no stimulus.

    He and his Wall St mates just don't get why people under water with their mortgages don't want to spend money! It would be funny if it were not so pathetic.
