"Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the capitalist system was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens. By this method they not only confiscate, but they confiscate arbitrarily"
-John Maynard Keynes - The Economic Consequences of the Peace (1919)
Lenin was right, and through the application of Keynesian "voodoo" economics we are seeing just how accurate Lenin was.
