We’ve written for some time about what a waste of space the Federal government.

How it just sucks the life out of the private sector in order to fill the pockets of interfering and power-crazed bureaucrats.

Yet we’ve been told by all and sundry that a strong government is important, nay, crucial for the stability of both the economy and society. Without it, the argument goes, there would be anarchy in the streets.

Why Central Banks Want to Unleash More Inflation

by Kris Sayce on August 30, 2010

Having read through US Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke’s speech at Jackson Hole, Wyoming over the weekend we can only come to two conclusions.

And not surprisingly it came from the market drones and Federal Reserve cheerleaders at CNBC.

Your editor wasn’t quick enough with the notepad and pen to jot down exactly what ‘Squawk on the Street’ host Erin Burnett said, but it went something like this:
