Good idea, but is there really going to be that much inflation from this? I mean, it's not like we're the only ones printing money...just about every other country is doing the same things we are, so wouldn't this kind of balance out the inflation a bit?
I wish it did, but it doesn't. There's a great little book used in many Introduction to Economics classes called
The Secret Life of Money. At the moment the author's name doesn't come to mind, but you can easily find and order a copy of it on Amazon.com. I'm not certain how many printings it's gone through, but each time it's reprinted the author includes thorough updates to reflect the current economic times.
It's a slim volume, has a few pictures, and is an objective informative read.
I'm of the opinion that anyone wanting to argue about economics, or just plain Dollars and Cents should first read
The Secret Life of Money as well as the equally fascinating
Everybody Poops Book.
Both have great practical value. :smile:
