"There's no such thing as a free lunch. The only true economic growth comes from innovation and investment, not jerking a currency one way or the other."

Well said.

...'tanstaafl.' Means 'there ain't no such thing
as a free lunch.' ... anything free costs twice
as much in [the] long run or turns out worthless.
-- Manuel, _The Moon is a Harsh Mistress_ (1967), pg 129

Another gem from Heinlein.
