A government which spends what it hasn't got to spend will cause hyper-inflation to come upon its people in due time. The Weimar Republic of Germany in the 1930's and Argentina in the 1980's are two examples, and maybe a third would be Zimbabwe. We ARE headed toward hyper-inflation which will rob money value from all, but will hurt the poor and middle class more than anyone else.

>Hardly - Obama unlawfully attempted to take monies recouped from the TARP bailout to fund a 2nd stimulus....despite FEDERAL LAW stating that recouped $$$ would go towards paying down the deficit.

>And even beyond that, TARP will have an adverse ripple effect for years. If you don't believe me, talk to any financial advisor.
