Tear up government debt held by central banks?




Four articles have appeared recently about whether government debt held by central banks should be torn up. See here, here, here and here. (h/t to Mike Norman). What took those article writers so long? I advocated the idea last Febuary here.

I don’t like saying “told you so”. Well, actually I do.

Told you so.
