Uh yeah. It isn't really a secret that printing money increases inflation...
See the hyperinflation in Germany after world war 1 & 2. That's not really relevant to what's happening now though... but that's cute that you thought it was ! --------------------  A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have. |

I believe that this is a good example of what a free market IS NOT! (ie survival of the fittest) basically we got fucked cause some CEOs couldn't do their job....yet are being rewarded. -------------------- Brandon....you're the reason I'm pro-choice.
