<p>[QUOTE="fatima, post: 1248485, member: 22143"]NO. What you are seeing is the built in failure of the fiat money system. The inherent flaw of fiat money, that is debt based money, is they have to continuously increase the supply of the $s to pay back the people who are owed the interest on the debt. This is why there is a stated goal of the central banks to maintain an inflation rate of 2% to 3%. This sounds innocent enough until you sit down and do the math. Any system that grows at a constant linear percentage rate, ends up with exponential growth. Furthermore if you plot it, this growth all of a sudden explodes and the chart resembles a hockey stick laying on its long side. You will commonly hear from people who know this that we are entering the puck end of the curve. </p><p><br /></p><p>This is easy enough to see if you plot US debt since 1971. We just had a lot of political theater where the end result was as predicted by the above, they increased the US $ debt by another $2.5T. (It took 300 years to spend the first trillion BTW) This $2.5T will run out in less than 18 months. What we see now are the major currencies racing each other to the bottom. This would be the Euro, the $ the British pound, Yen, and so forth. The rest are in dire straits because of it.
