Why the Fed has made a historic mistake on inflation: Because it didn‘t want to do the other historic mistake.

The Fed‘s basically got binary options here: Keep inflation from ruining lives and savings or saving the economy from collapse. Or trying to do just a bit of both.

I’m rather asking myself: When you‘ve got a water pipe with a valve you can just open and shut and the leakage getting larger and larger with less and less water arriving at the end, is it the one operating the valve doing the historic mistake?
