"Inflation is not caused by the actions of private citizens,
but by the government: by an artificial expansion of the money supply
required to support deficit spending. No private embezzlers or bank
robbers in history have ever plundered people’s savings on a scale
comparable to the plunder perpetrated by the fiscal policies of
statist governments." | by: | Ayn Rand
