The Fed's quantitative easing program channeled trillions of dollars out of advanced and into emerging market economies – laying the groundwork for an even bigger, meaner financial crisis that will extend across all economies, great and small.
This is not merely a crisis of Greece, or a crisis of debt — it's a crisis in the structure of the eurozone itself, where national governments can't implement monetary policy to support their fiscal policies.
