Crazy Thinker:
What a bunch of mumbo jumbo doublespeak crap! Where is your evidence of this???
I do know what I am talking about. You don't. I follow the financial situation very closely and have for years. Nearly every week for the last couple of years, and particularly since 9-11, the money supply has been inflated by between 20 and 50 billion dollars per week. This last week was an exception, and may explain why the stock markets contracted so violently. Read the Credit Bubble Bulletin. It is updated every Friday afternoon. http://www.prudentbear.com/archive_comm_article.asp?category=Credit+Bubble+Bulletin&content_idx=13447
INFLATION is about prices! Hello! And prices are not going up! Please explain how currency can be hyperinflated without prices going up!!!
Prices are going up. Stock prices have inflated during the bubble years. Real estate, like I said, has doubled in recent 18 months or so. That is a form of inflation. Your Sesame Street definiton of inflation ignores the cause of inflation, the cause of which is the inflation of the money supply, which causes the currency to become worth less, and so it takes more money to buy something real. In the case of hyperinflation the currency becomes totally worthless due to its super abundance. / You know
