but it doesn't have to be this way pretty much everything ben bernanke he said was intended to fool you into thinking that it is essential to the economy that he creates more money when money is created it goes into the hands of a very privileged few first while your money loses value this is called inflation which really refers to an increase in flay ssion of the money supply not arise in prices even if prices are stable for consumers they should be going down as we naturally increase our productive capacity the price of goods should go down and quality of life should go up and it's not supposed to go up for just the well connected few when you hear about some exorbitant sum of money going to a corporate executive or banker or government contractor to sask yourself if we had a truly free market in the federal reserve then the exist could this person get paid that much the price of gold is fifteen hundred thirty six dollars an ounce an all time high and it's not because of a surge in jewelry sales it's because the value of the dollar relative to gold a steady measure of value is going d
