12Ec: Quantitative easing

Friday's homework is to investigate the government's current policy of quantitative easing. I want you to write two paragaphs (and use diagrams where appropriate).

1. What is the purpose of quantitative easing?
2. Is quantitative easing working? This is a very difficult question, but you can approach it my mentioning the advantages and disadvantages of the quantitive easing.
