Inflation then deflation. Pop goes the bubble.

It's called The Obama Depression.

They are INTENTIONALLY destroying, not just the economy, but every freedom this country has.

Never forget ...


Here's the mind of Fascist Obama, from another poster LomanBill.



So you see, FASCIST Obama is currently on stage III of their plan "bring the country to the verge of crisis".

Don't you see it?

Wasn't it Thomas Jefferson who wrote

And then again when he wrote

What the socialist intelligentia does comprehend is that you can have both deflation AND inflation.

A contracting economy will always have deflationary price pressure. Printing warehouses full of money will always have inflationary pressure. Which wins out? Both.

Let’s say that today I make $1 an hour and can purchase 1 loaf of bread. Five years from now I make $500 an hour, but a loaf of bread costs $400. Purchasing power has deflated, while cash value has inflated. In this situation you get massive shortages as people refuse to let go of commodities.

It is far more complicated than my above example, as wages measued by purchasing power will also deflate, but that is it in a nutshell.

And the trick the government appears to be running right now is to balance the two so our buying power is depressed without us actually seeing a significant change in prices.
