<<Nothing close to this has ever happened in this country and is not happening now.>>

Are those your words? deficit spending was one of the triggers for Germanys inflation..the 31 bln marks they were ordered to pay in repatriations is but a drop in the bucket compared to current U.S. spending, ie: $87 bln in aid to Iraq pluss another $5 bln a month to maintain a presence there.

Or maybe Bolivia, Argentina, Peru, Ukraine, Russia or Turkey...It really doesn't matter, the end result is the same..Purchasing power of the local currency is destroyed and savings get wiped out...In a very short time i might add.
