Isn't there some sort of limit to the Fed's endless free money printing machine? Doesn't inflation or some other negative consequence kick in eventually?

You would think so yes. Normally this might trigger a crisis of confidence and sharp inflation but a) the rest of the world is doing it too, b) the USD is the world's reserve currency, c) we may suffer deflation due to the recession and fall in demand if it is long lasting.

It's hard to predict the consequences.
