Right. Your's a textbook answer to the textbook question. What are the causes of bank panics? Who are the winners and losers of this inflationary intervention/"reduction" of recessions? If the winners of these policies continue to keep winning, is this good for society at large? You don't seem to see the big picture. Product of one-step thinking.
