Jed, It cannot be true that you think there is no inflation.. What about my exampla. If there is no inflation why does the government need to increase taxes and fees?? Yes there are tendencies at deflation because of all manipulations. As I said before there is a hidden inflation. Fees and other governmental charges are increasing. That fits all politicians. More money to handle (read skim from). No, inflation in itself does not create economic enhancement. I agree with that. Inflation is merely a way to distribute the assets.
