Hyperinflation: Fed Walks the Tightrope

• Cryptogon.com
Great followup to: Kucinich: The Federal Reserve Is Paying Banks NOT to Make Loans. The sound money set remains concerned that the Federal Reserve’s emergency actions to corral collapse could ignite hyperinflation. In particular, they point to the explosion of excess reserves inside the banking system, which they call dry tinder just waiting for the spark of recovery. Bill Dudley, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, says this isn’t an issue because the Fed now pays interest on excess reserves. It’s a good argument, but only in the short run.

Oversimplified. The author derides us as "the sound money crowd" when they obviously only know one half of how "money" is created. They have fractional reserve lending semi-identified as one cause. To the rest they are ignorant.
