Is bekend hoeveel de Amerikanen jaarlijks aan dollar-biljetten van de pers laten rollen?

Volgens dit artikel zijn er tot maart dit jaar één biljoen dollars zonder dekking uitgeprint (In what will soon be known as “QE1”(i.e. once QE2 is announced), Bernanke printed over a trillion dollars out of thin air, then used that money to buy, among other things, mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and Treasury Bonds. In other words, the government was printing money to a) lend to itself and b) prop up the housing market, with Wall Street stepping in to take a big cut. )
