And there's nothing to say that the price of commodities will ever go back down, that's the pandora's box one opens when engaging in artificial production of monies. Gas usually comes back to an equilibrium but what about food and other essentials? If wages aren't increasing but the price of basic amenities such as food and medicine are, then that basically means the cost of living is going up and we have Bernanke and supposed quantitative easing to thank for this increased cost. I won't pin every worldwide catastrophe the past two months casued by inflation on Bernank and the Fed, but I think the case would hold up pretty well in a court of law. And you can bet QE 3 is coming despite the man saying otherwise.
