True. And this will be too, until the currency crisis hits. Which given how this govt borrows, that could happen at any time now.

FDR confiscated gold and devalued the dollar in 1933. that is not deflationary.

inflation is not symptom of the problem or the recovery, it is the guaranteed government response to the problem.
