[QUOTE="Deleted member 2897, post: 807466"] I had (seems like wrongly) assumed that they would account for that change in their own data. Sheesh. To your point, you can audit that assumption in a couple ways. One piece is the Fed's balance sheet. Because they effectively use printed money to buy back corporate bonds, our own debt, and mortgages. Their balance sheet increased $4 Trillion last year. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/bst_recenttrends.htm[/URL] Another piece is areas like PPP and PUA (pandemic unemployment assistance) where we essentially printed money to hand out to people. I don't have those figures off the top of my head for what we spent, but that's probably another $1 Trillion. And that gets you to that $5 Trillion number. But yea, that's a huge step change in money floating around in the system. The venture capital market, housing market - there's money flush in every corner of the system. Dr. Koop.com could get adequately funded again in today's environment. :) When that trajectory of money in the system changes, the inflation and spending trajectory will change IMHO. [/QUOTE]
