Great Summary. You might have said more about the Accord.

I'd be interested in the author's explanation for the reluctance of the Fed to reflate after the 2008 financial crisis. Did it feel limited in the amount of QE it could do? Was it fearful of allowing inflation expectations to exceed 2% for long? Did it have an implicit inflation ceiling instead of target?
