Inflation Nation

Imagine these good old days revisited... anyone remember?                   This manmade tsunami affects every man, woman & child around the globe...  True cost of living in the United States

"The real price of every thing, what every thing really costs to the man who wants to acquire it, is the toil and trouble of acquiring it... But though labour be the real measure of the exchangeable value of all commodities, it is not that by which their value is commonly estimated... Every commodity, besides, is more frequently exchanged for, and thereby compared with, other commodities than with labour." - Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations, 1776

The US Dollar Index and the money supply (M1,M2, & M3) are the best available tools used to measure real inflation in the US dollar. (Remember, the Federal Reserve's official inflation rate doesn't include oil or housing!) (In 2006, the Fed stopped measuring money supply, the last limiting factor the government had its quest for a pure fiat currency. The dollar is now tied to nothing but political fiat, and not even the volume of supply is a limiting factor to its production. Can a currency survive based only on political fiat without regard to the laws of supply and demand? If so, why is Congress considering re-issuing steel nickles and pennies? If not, who or what will stop the Inflation Nation from spiraling into disaster?)
