Remember that as a time when it was all over the place. It seemed to have worked quite effectively, and i think the evidence to that policy is pretty positive. The evidence against it in terms of its longterm effect is minimal. That doesnt mean that it couldnt be used to harm the private sector by taking the money out of the economy because they have discretion
