They are pouring money into the system to keep the debt bubble from deflating. They are trying to get as much liquidity into the economy any way they can. They are probably even buying stock index futures to stave off a severe market crash. It's like taking a ballon with a hole in it and hooking it up to a high powered air compressor.

The ballon will blow up eventually and it won't be pretty.
