I already posted this today but I hink it deservers another run in this thread. It's from todays DR.

Curiouser still, the U.S. Fed has not merely brought about an explosion in the number of dollars around the world; it has also lit the fuse of other currencies all over the world. The United States sells dollar debt. Foreign central banks buy it by issuing currency of their own. The result?
A world flooded not only with dollars, but also with yen,
kroner, euros, and pounds. The broad money supply in
Australia is rising at a 9.7% annual rate. In Britain, the
pounds pile up at a 9.3% rate. Canada multiplies its
loonies at 9.1% per year. The Danes are expanding their
money supply at a breathtaking 10.7%. Euros are increasing 6% annually. And the dollar - the U.S. broad money supply is only increasing at a fairly modest rate of 4.8%, a rate that is still far above the increase in GDP.

So we are printing money at twice the rate of the US, our foreign debt is worse than theirs and so is our personal debt. Hard to imagine our Gov was re-elected on the basis of sound financial management, among other things.
