PS you have good point and thanks on the bank info. As for Schiff, it is possible that we could be lied to due to my belief that home purchase and energy SHOULD be listed into the inflation measurement cpi. But can the government hold the public down for so long? It would be very doubtful. I am betting my main purchasing power within the US. Peter did state that the items we purchase within the US would go down with the value of the dollar also. We would be most hurt on buying foreign items (everything from China). If rents start raising it would raise the CPI making the fed raise rates again also. So worse case I could use my US currency to buy a US home but fill it with crappy furniture that I would have to make myself (along with a spray painted granite counter top 🙂
