The Fed is not content to let interest rates find their levels, they must repress them, and they are not content to let housing prices find their levels, they seek to intervene to prop them up. The result of all this intervention is not to cure what ails us, but prolongs the symptoms of what distresses us." (Source: James Grant, editor and publisher of Grant's Interest Rate Observer)
