Gov’t printing money

[jimmyle]

People have been talking about gov’t printing money and in the process diluting the value of the dollar. I am talking about printing more money and not replacing old notes. Is this a fact or people are just assuming? And is there anyway to know how much they are printing?

Don’t watch anything, but rather listen to what your gut is telling you. We are players in a game that is rigged. The best recourse is to simply walk away, and not play the game.

Where do you think the Federal Reserve is getting the trillions it is spending to buy up crappy loans and Treasuries? Do you think it was just sitting on ~$1.2trillion, doing nothing with it? No, it printed it. Well, it decided that its accounts, (electronic) had an extra trillion or two, then spent it. Seeing as it controls the supply of money, it can do that. That money went to things like government bonds, which then was spent on REALLY expensive stimulus jobs or ‘infrastructure’ spending, and worked its way into the economy. Eventually it will have to be pulled out, or risk really high inflation, but that is a story for another day/year. RIght now it gives us a nice sugar high.
