No matter how much qe the fed does , there will be no inflation. The money goes to banks and financial institutions. They do not spend it on real goods and services. Rather they implement financial tools to get higher roi. Thus too many dollars chase too few financial tools resulting in equity inflation (a rising stock market) The real market of goods and services is unmoved and as a result wages and prices are stable (stagnant). The fed only helps banks because they use a system designed in the 1930s. Back then before credit cards, internet banking, before the repeal of Glass Steagall, banks drove the economy by lending to people. (See ‘It’s a Wonderful 𝐋𝐢𝐟𝐞’) To move the economy, the fed has to put money into the hands of people who will spend it. Each taxpayer should get a fed account with a monthly stipend of fed-coin. Fed-coin will have a half-life to encourage people to spend it. Once spent its value will be fixed as it gets converted to regular dollars
