Ben Bernanke was elected by President George H.W Bush along with the U.S Senate as Federal Reserve Chair on February 1st of 2006, succeeding the acclaimed Chair Alan Greenspan. Bernanke himself was considered an Orthodox Monetarist, and his skill was soon put to the test two years after his appointment during the 2008 Housing Crisis. The Federal Reserve ramped up Money Printing, as well as QE, in an attempt to stabilize the economy and ease off the pain caused by MBS. While most economists call the Federal Reserve's efforts a success, a few others, such as the staunch anti-fiat-currency Representative Ron Paul, criticized the Fed and Bernanke for the ensuing stagflation of 2012.
