I think the deflation that is hitting the unionized developed countries will mitigate the inflation that is hitting the emerging countries.

Each situation has a different set of problems.

Deflation in a developed country will give us marginal inflation with employment problems.

A strong currency in Asian countries will aleviate the inflation they struggle with now.

How each of our countries struggle with currency fluctuations will have a impact on our individual set of problems.

If China allows its currency to rise thay blunt their inflation.

If we allow our currency to decline we get more inflation but also boost our economy and benefit from the return of outsourced jobs as they will no longer be cheaper.Remember as energy gets more expensive the cost advantages of transporting widget from a cheap labor country is diminished.

So it is a big world with many inputs and they change continuously.

I still think our country's biggest problem is deflation and slow growth with high unemployment.

Out Treasury bills and Bonds are confirming that with market based low rates.

QE2 stopping in the end of June didn't make rates go up like they were suppose to(according to may experts)

We still have slow growth - QE was supposed to boost it.

Sometimes doing nothing is an action also.

I think we need to cut regulation and get to work drilling for oil ,digging up coal and exportinig it and let those farmers grow corn,wheat,and soy beans and sell it to a fast growiing population that is hungry.

Hope that clears it up.

Bob
