U.S. Federal Reserve chairman Bernanke's defense of QE III
06/15/2011
Bernanke's defense of the Federal Reserve's QE I, QE II, and QE III. focusses on keeping interest rates down because higher interest rates would increase borrowing costs of the government. In the eurozone capital markets are setting interest rates for Germany, France, Italy and Spain. The Fed is using its monetary policies to set rates low to keep borrowing costs on U.S. debt down. It also keeps economic growth from dropping to a point where it reduces government revenues and worsens the deficit. This buys time for Congress and a newly elected administration to come together on a plan for the deficit and generating growth.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
