  If I may take your equation a step further tehranchick;
  
  Inflation=counterfeit=privatization.
  
  We have been told that the private sector can always operate more efficiently than the government. So why don’t we all get our own printing presses and print our own money, bypassing a wasteful government bureaucracy! Think of the billions we could save by closing down the treasury!

    I've wondered that sometimes myself. My $3 bills are really pretty artistic. And they fill a need. All I can say is that the government dislikes competition in that area rather intensely. They get testy, to say the least.

      I've printed my artistic $11 bills on regular, old, cheap paper I picked up at the local WalMart. They're actually very pretty, and quite sturdy. The image depicted on the front is Marty Moose. Sarah Palin has shown an interest in them. I may get the contract to print "Moose Money" for the great state of Alaska! For Every $11 dollar "Moose" bill; she has promised to pay $15. Her math skills are simply astounding. McCain/Palin 08!!!!
