assuming you are correct, and you may very well be, we have nevertheless seen enormous growth in debt and currency in the last few months. it makes no difference how we explain this, they are undisputed facts with easily predictable results.

the creation of tonka truck size loads of new currency debases it and leads to inflation. it is as simple as that. we have not yet seen it because bailout money is being hoarded. once it begins to circulate, inflation will be the economic theme for some time.

>Exponentiality has nothing to do with it.>

So right MQ. When someone says exponential to justify an argument, I suspect the argument. You can have all kinds of exponents on the exponential including negative numbers. And before the exponential hits the big numbers, the boundary conditions may change, as it happened recently with oil prices.
