As other commentators pointed out: Savings and investments are two sides of the same coin here. The money which is used for saving will be invested somewhere - even if the person who owns it just keeps it in an account on the bank. The problem I see is that the money almost exclusively goes to startups. In the last 10 years the startup scene in the US has been doing very well - not in terms of profits but in terms of funding. This giant "pool of money" created by the FED however mostly benefits just a small part of the workforce: Notably the engineers, scientists, managers, lawyers, investment bankers, etc. in the startup hotspots: In cities like SF, NYC, Seattle, Houston, etc. This is a problem for society because while wages for some parts of the workforce keep growing other workers are left with stagnating wages.
