It is generally acknowledged by the public that the purchasing power of the dollar note has diminished over time. Most people recognize the note’s diminished value, and the resulting loss in purchasing power, as inflation. Inflation is a financial enemy to all of humanity, especially those on limited fixed incomes. It is a hidden tax that erodes the value of money over time and eventually decreases everyone’s purchasing power.
Inflation has been found to increase its footprint in America at the average rate of ten times increase every fifty years. A modest house that cost $5,000 in 1940 would cost $50,000 by 1990, and at the present rate of inflation will cost $500,000 by the year 2040. During the same time frame, wages will have fallen behind the increase in cost by about 40%. It has been found that inflation steals from the people with low and fixed incomes the most.
Inflation’s predominantly cause is the excessive printing and distribution of notes. We can’t stop the U.S. Treasury from printing an excess of notes, and we have no power to stop the Federal Reserve System from issuing the notes that cause inflation! They are simply not going to stop. Inflation is simply a money supply problem that has no competition. It really is too much money chasing too few products. Therefore, one solution to inflation is to introduce some type of competition that contains real monetary value in the marketplace.
The question is: what can a person do about inflation? Until now, the average person’s only solution to that question was to either ask their boss for a raise or work a second job to earn more money! That method simply gives the illusion of reducing the effects of inflation.
The real solution to inflation is to provide an alternative method of payment that contains added value. To understand the meaning of value, let me compare price with value. Price is what a person pays: Price is a dollar amount; value is what a person gets: Value is the relative worth or desirability of something to a person. Desirability means a person is willing to exchange their money for the item of value.
