IMO QE is insanely regressive because of most people's non participation in the financial system, and thus is a "supply side wolf in keynsian clothing". Looking at all the unprofitable startups and other investment vehicles of the current cycle, combined with uneven increases in productivity and tenuous shitty jobs being the bulk of job growth shows how we've clearly don't have the demand and the money isn't trickling down enough to make it.
With interest rates near zero, and the old monitarist avenues generally exhausted with this procyclic hangover, we have nothing left to do but the real ask fiscal shit jobs guarantee or UBI.
Hopefully people realize work sucks and it would be nice if computers were used to their full potential so we get UBI instead and then we can write expert systems and reduce meanial labor and other useful shit.
