I agree with you, but many are worried about a collapse in the housing market and/or equities market which is deflationary to say the least.

But the Fed has said many times in many ways they will keep interest rates down. This is necessary to prevent a collapse, and at the same time they are masking true inflation. But when looking at the price of commodities, especially oil and gold, there is already a lot of inflation, and more to come in my opinion. Commodities are valued in US dollars, and I am in the camp which believes the dollar will continue to decline, and debt will continue to grow.

And the Fed will not ease up the printing press until they are sure the economy can take the shock of interest rate hikes. It is getting a bit far out, but very high inflation in the future is not improbable.
