My mother and father would hark back to the days when a loaf of bread was only 8 cents. “Mom”, I would say, “things just cost more.” Could I have been more wrong? Things don’t cost more, it is a hidden tax! How Inflation is Created [...]]]></description>

After taking several small steps recently to take the financial system off life support, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke made clear Wednesday that he wasn&#8217;t close to the more momentous act of raising interest rates, thus tightening credit.

As all half witted intellectuals, he recognizes a symptom, but never questions the source. Here is a paragraph where he talks about Adam Smith.
