Quantitative Easing, or simply "Printing Money," is a process in which the Federal Reserve Bank releases cash to other banks in order to stimulate the economy. This is simple: banks have more money, so they can lend it to investors, which creates small businesses, which creates jobs. Did you know that between 70 and 80% of the US economy is constituted by small businesses? Yes the reasoning may be simple, but the implications are deeply profound to understand.
