spending a trillion dollars might be inflationary in a healthy economy but we have anything but that.

i look around at depressed housing, energy, and food prices, a continuing credit problem and manufacturers unable to give product away along with hundreds of thousands more unemployed every month and i think we need to be worried about a deflation cycle.

you know nobody outside the government is spending now, right? how are we going to have inflation if no one will buy anything?
