recovery will only happen for real if Fed pulls QE allows TBTF to go under and the economy to restructure without QE or congressional stimulus

The older the folks the less likely to get a job once they lose a job. They're also harder to retrain.

Yep.
The older the folks the less likely to get a job once they lose a job. They're also harder to retrain.
And to add insult to injury their savings yield nothing thanks to the Fed so they have to become a riverboat stockmarket gambling addict or flip crap shacks at a high speed rate to keep up with inflation.

Say it loud and feed the Gatling. Cannibal Anarchy is here!
Realtors should focus on housing with command towers, in-house drones, large weaponry and high-tech control stations to be prepared for the full onslaught of cannibal anarchy. Your children will learn faster and become smarter if brought up in your own home under the rattling sound of gatling gunfire!

QE/stimulus ends up unevenly distributing economic resources and dollars based on political interest. Free markets will also have imbalances but nothing like those created by central planners
2. educating a high tech workforce...
Why?
All these jobs are being off-shored!

1. investing in high tech infrastructure...
Why corporations are shipping every full time position abroad?

Oh it gets worse than that.
We no longer live in a free market economy, that's one thing Romney actually got right.

Yes, because THAT shoe fits everyone!
What is wrong with printing $80 billion per month?
I don't see any inflation. Fed should print $160 billion.

xeno gear-the Fed may end doing so.Instead of tapering down they may gradually increase QE.

Since the beginning of the Great Recession, dating back to the “green shoots†days of early 2009 and recovery summer of 2010, there has been a crowd of analysts, journalists and pundits searching for signs of an economic recovery.
One group of analysts sifts through the data and determines most of it is negative but concludes “bad news is good news†because it means the Fed will continue its multi-trillion dollar quantitative easing (QE) experiment to try and drive interest rates lower and the real estate and stock markets higher. This realistic school of thought does not believe there is an economic recovery, rather just endless excuses to continue QE.
There is another more addictive school of thought, near Panglossian in nature, that goes “any news is good news†and can be taken as yet another sign of economic recovery.
This is the Economic Recovery Addict Syndrome.
