Our country is in a deflationary spiral. The amount of monetary collapse is far greater than the new amount of money that the Federal government is pumping into the system.

Could you explain, to a complete dolt, the difference between monetary collapse and gov. printed "faux" money? If the government is printing more money at the same time the currency is collapsing, in value I assume, then inflation, not deflation should result.

But you say we're in a deflationary spiral, which I would assume means prices decreasing, which would shore up the purchasing power of the dollar. (Or have I got the Corse before the hart? )

I know I'm missing something, and would appreciate some help.

Thanks,
Tom
