Your post is completely devoid of facts. Just opinion presented as facts. Basically what you accuse the original poster of. Thats makes you a typical, run of the mill, hypocrite liberal. The dollar is worth less because one arm of the Feds bought up the debt of another arm of the feds. Not being on the gold standard means the dollar is worth what people think it's worth. And with Obummers banana republic financing strategies, it has lost value. In other words your food stamps buy less beer and cigarettes. Doesn't this make you mad???
