Bill Bonner Quotes
Printing up extra money - with no backing - used to be the sort of thing only counterfeiters did. Now it is done by the central bankers and Treasury Secretaries themselves.

Instead, they're proud of it... announcing that they 'saved civilization,' or some such claptrap.Bill Bonner
