Good Lord. You guys really can't believe that.

So I have a 12" Apple pie that sells for $5.00. What you guys are telling me is that I can reduce the size of that pie to 8" and still sell it for $5.00! You must be insane.

I think I could fool some people and sell it for $5.00, but the word will get out pretty quickly and then people will demand I sell it for commensurately less.

Same goes for dollars. When you print more of them, you are diluting their value proportionately to how much extra you are printing.

Contrary to popular Republican belief, THERE IS NO FREE LUNCH!
