Raised the fuel prices, therefore electricity, groceries, fertilizer, tuition and everyother fee that you can think of has been raised.
Wages have not been raised, hours cut or the jobs entirely. Just how long do you think this country can survive with this going on?
Your's is an astute observation. Americans have been losing their jobs over the last decade because they can't compete in a world market. Whether it be high labor, over-regulation, or a combination of both, China , India can do our jobs far cheaper. In steps Mr. Ben Bernanke of the Federal Reserve Bank. He floods the US economy with dollars making their value less and prices soar. Don, the idiot widget maker, takes his Union won paycheck home not realizing his recent raise buys less.
Now, when you hear the president propose a tax on some company making record profits you can understand that the record is due to the dollar made cheap by Mr. Bernanke. It simply takes more dollars to add-up to the same value as ten years ago, (inflation). President Jimmy Carter took advantage of this inflation during his presidency and through class warfare imposed a Windfall Profits Tax on oil companies. Many small oil companies were put out of business in America but government grew larger.
Understanding the Federal Reserve Bank's policy to create inflation in an effort to bring jobs back to America has been argued by economist since the "gold standard" was abandoned as a value base for our currency. Ron Paul, republican candidate for president, is an advocate to restore the gold base, thereby making each dollar backed by gold and eliminating inflation. Inflation robs the saved wealth of a nation, it is especially hard on the elderly who can no longer work and live on saved monies.
