Jay, I have Foster's book which is discussed in the link I have posted below. An exhaustive compilation by an amateur of the ultimate failure of every single fiat currency by overprinting since time immemorial, beginning in China. kitco.com The other point made by the article, that the growth in China's money stock has been gigantic even when compared to the US, is troubling. No doubt the growth of the Chinese economy has required a growth in the money supply. However, it seems that recent efforts to tampen down inflation by raising rates and reserve requirements show an appreciation by Chinese policymakers of an inflationary problem. I personally believe that the growth of money supply is a global problem, a part of a world-wide beggar-thy-neighbor strategy adopted by most countries. It won't end well, but it will be good for gold.

rapid collapse of Egypt’s autocracy should be food for thought for companies that have bet big on China (with its appearance of order) rather than India (with its messy democracy). economist.com Muck throwing at its best! No need to say. Make the connection you want and the brain of the reader will do the rest.
