    "Just a book entry for the Fed."

    Spot on!

    In theory, the Fed could repurchase every US treasury bond on issue (uber QE) without adding one penny to M3. As long the coupon rates on those bonds are higher than the Fed Funds Rate, the Fed rakes in the money... $600 billion since 2009 and counting.

    The US government will never default on its debts.
