Reply #12: Motive- Repay debt with inflated dollars [View All]

If the printing presses begin to double or triple the output of dollars it will be an easier way to pay down the debt the war in Iraq has cost the US citizens, by using cheaper dollars. Our US currency will fall against other world currencies.

Everyone no doubt has noticed how the necessities such as food has changed in the past year. My wife remarked that if cakes in the supermarket get any smaller they'll have to call them cup cakes.

I had an occasion to walk into a super market at 3:00 AM and was surprised to see nearly fifteen people pulling boxes of the shelves and replacing them with smaller boxes of the same product, however.
The smaller box price was not reduced proportionately. By reducing the space between the shelves they could put more boxes in the same space, and still make more profit per inch;that's inflation. And one example of how super markets are handling the problem.

The answer is to become smarter shoper. Purchus only needs not wants. There is no way to avoid,inflation but we can reduce its impact on our budget.
