Hyper Inflation

What is disturbing that this and other articles highlight
(including Krugman) is how
economics can be so politicized. I thought there
was some actual math associated with it. But everyone
seems to pick an index, rate, some type of economic measurement
that highlights their political position.

As far as Obama fear-mongering: The vast majority of what
I have read and heard (which is all I can speak to obviously),
is that we have a very large problem. That is systemic, real and
pyschological. And I still have great faith in the innovation
and the brain power that this country fosters. I would like to
see this continue. I think Obama has pretty much laid it out,
maybe too much (I think he is on TV way too much and he
of course does not need to think about questions concerning
Aroid or NCAA football tournaments)
