Quit disturbing when shown on a graph. Doesn't take a genius to see some serious inflation problems heading our way.

On the contrary. This is actually deflationary big time. I said in another thread and Ill repeat in this one. The losses of the banks are in the trillions and not just on subprime. These losses are causing a big deflationary problem right now. But if the government keeps printing like it has to fill the gap which is obviously their strategy then yes inflation will come and come hard. Gold and guns folks

Sweet Jesus, it's like it fell off a cliff.

Look at the monetary base.

Aug 27 - $841.074B
Sept 10 - $843.773B
Sept 24 - $911.454B
Oct 8 - $984.717B

$73.263B has been "printed" in the last 2 weeks!
They're trying to combat the massive deflation with massive INflation. Good lord!
