They don't have the balls to raise rates above the projected inflation rate.

They're still printing money just slower.

edit: For the non-doomers think about that. Your savior the fed with his soft landing won't even raise rates to match inflation. The economy is so fucked that they can't turn the inflation pump off or you all crash.
