Some of you don't think very far ahead...
This is what has happened to our monetary base in the past 12 months:

That's right, it's doubled. So where is all of this money? It's chillin' at the Federal Reserve, in "excess reserves:"

So what does this have to do with the topic? Simple: Obama's popularity continues to drop over the next year, and he tells Ben Bernanke something to
the effect of "Hey, if you want to be reappointed; you'll pump in some liquidity and give me a little more political breathing room!" Ben will do
it, and if he won't, then somebody else will.
So Ben raises interest rates by a fraction of a percent and banks respond by pulling their money and flooding the market-place with it. If the Fed
doesn't hit the switch at the crucial time, we have massive inflation. For the time being, citizens will be happy because they'll think that happy
days are here again, and Obama will be happy because he'll be re-elected.
Then we'll see what happens after a few years of massive inflation: the dollar will collapse and the US empire will go right along with it.
But go ahead; rejoice and root against the current regime. It's not like the stakes are very high.
