Less valuable than toilet paper, nobody picks them up.
Coming to a neighbourhood near you.

He's talking about hyperinflation, something your obviously too ignorant to know about.


During hyperinflationary events, money becomes increasingly worthless. Before Zimbabwe gave up on their currency, there would be million dollar bills lying all over the ground, that on-one would bother to pick up, because they were worthless.

The Fed is buying up 90% of all treasury bills now. It's coming.

They actually have two programs going now, for a total of 85 billion. That's how we reach the 90% mark.

In the next two months, there is talk that they will increase their purchasing further. Soon, we will owe the entire national debt to the Federal Reserve, which is not a branch of the Federal Government but a group of private banks that we have allowed to print our money in abandon.

Does any of this make sense? Of course not. That's why our currency and country is doomed. gaah

Yeah, it's called flouride. Probably the last place on earth to get it in a daily dose.

Aside from that, Op is right. When the Fed is the only one buying up the debt, the game is over. It would be like drawing up your own bills with crayons and going out and spending them.

The only thing left to happen is for enough people to realize it's fake or stop believing in the fairy tale.

Obama's plan is to deflate the value of our dollar so he can have his ugly mug on the $1,000 bill by 2016

The inflation number has to be low when you consider that prices are going up and the amount purchased. Brands don't want their consumers to think they are paying more for less so the packaging stays about the same.

This is why we will see pockets if higher inflation in certain goods. Eventually retailers and producers will not be able to continue to absorb any amount if it.

what do you expect?
they have to print more, in no small part because you lot send it south of the border by the truck load after the checks get cashed on the first and fifteenth,
the rest get sent to our superspecial allies in the middle east by way of banks or in direct payments

Good point. Remember when a 1/2 gallon of ice cream had a 1/2 gallon in it ? Now they call them "squares" and have .375 gallons. Package size remaining the same, content size dropping.

I try to stick to known quantities when I compare old receipts. Last year in the beginning of Dec. I paid $1.99 for a pound of 80/20 burger. Yesterday it was $3.49. That is inflation I can see.
