    Have you head that financial experts are predicting high inflation, because Obama was reelected?

    I was speaking to my financial advisers about to adjusting my Benevolent Trusts, to provide more money for my grandchildren.


    I told them I expected that the economy was not going to improve, now the Obama was still in office.


    They told me that they agreed and it will be even worse now that Obamacare is the law of the land.


    They expect INFLATION to INCREASE even greater than in did during the four years of WWII, when it went up an historical 125%


    The primary reason, beside the additional $1,000,000,000 per year for the past four years that Obama has added to the national debt, is the HIDDEN higher TAXES that are added by his healthcare law.


    Taxes will go UP, in adding to NEW taxes some CURRENT taxes will increase over 330%, each of the next THREE years to pay for Obamacare and will adversely hurt large and primarily SMALL business.


    Those costs must be passed on to consumers, even if NOT added to their percentage of profit and that will lead to business failures, changing current full time jobs to PARTTIME jobs, particularly to those companies that face competition from imports.


    I believe Obama will be remembered as the worse President, when history is recorded.

    Economists generally agree that high rates of inflation and hyperinflation are caused by an excessive growth of the money supply.


    I thought the USA was mega trillions in debt, where will the money to generate high inflation come from?


    If people aren't working you can't TAX them.

    It is like believing in God.

    If a believer is wrong, what difference does it make over time.

    BUT if a non-believer is wrong, at the end of time there may be HELL to pay ;-)

    Inflation is the result of devaluation of the Currency.

    FDR's "Lend Lease" Program that was neither a loan nor a lease.

    Giving free stuff to European countries to stop the Nazis helped to devalued the dollar.

    When ask about the inflation and the devaluing of the dollar he said "When one's house is on fire one does not worry about the water bill."

    Of course he was right to help stop Hitler in Europe before we would need to do so at our borders.

    So called "Free" healthcare is not our water bill.

    So the money is coming from where?
    Please explain.

    Economics 101. The Dollar is being "Monetized," by the Federal Reserve" buying US Bonds, with the extra money in is printing, as has been the case for the past several years.

    One of the reasons Crude Oil is going up in price even when the world economy is bad, is because the Dollar had been declining in value.

    Quantative easing has been proven to ruin economies,bad idea in my opinion.

    We never seem to learn from History. EVERY TIME tax RATES were reduced, by Presidents Kennedy, Reagan and George Bush, the economy grew.

    The reason is a Dollar is taxed EVERY time one changes hands. The result is more Dollars in circulation the more revenue is received by the US Treasury.

    Obama keeps blaming Bush but the fact is the Treasury took in more tax money during his second to sixth year in office than anytime in history. UP until Dimocrates took control of the Congress in 2006 and went on a spending spree with changes to "Fanny and Freddy" that forced 120% mortgages on the big Banks.

    The last two quarters of 2004 and the last three quarter of 2005, the US Treasury was taking IN MORE than it was putting out!

    The Dimocrates like to demagogue the people who no idea how our government works.

    All spending Bills MUST ordinate in the House and be approved by the Senate to become law

    If there are changes to the spending bill the changes must be approved by the House, via what is known as a "Reconciliation Bill" That is where the two compromise to get the final bill approved

    What has been happening, since the Republicans gained controll of the House in 2010, is the Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid, Dimocrat will not bring any of the bills to the floor. As a result the Senate can not create a "a "Reconciliation Bill" on which to vote.

    Its a clear indication that this is the decline of our Nation in a big way. All the signs were there, even long before the election.
    We are no longer a free country. Every aspect of our lives will be controlled by a dictator government and we have the people to thank who again voted him into office, People never learn from past mistakes and take the rest of us down too.
