The only way you can create inflation is by creating moremoney that is backed by the same reserve assets; the Fed is the onlyentity that can create more money. Ben Bernanke’s quantitative easing(QE) programs have pumped billions of unfunded dollars into theeconomy, thereby setting us up for massive inflation in the very nearfuture. If this isn’t a form of financial terrorism, it is incompetence of the highest order.”

“[Hyperinflation is] not going to happen in this country, will never happen... [The Fed putting so much money into the system is] not going to create the risk of hyperinflation in the future. We have a strong independent Federal Reserve with a very strong mandate from the Congress, and they will do what's necessary to keep inflation low and stable over time.”
