#2When money supply expands faster than trade, you're going to have a bad time (in the future). We shall see how many USD it takes to buy goods from overseas.

#3This helps middle class very short term, but would absolutely annihilate us medium to long term.

#4Is anyone (who is paid/lives in the US) concerned about the future value of USD? A lot of my friends are saying I should be investing in cryptocurrencies for future safety, but I don't see those as very stable, so I'm hesitant to put my savings into it.

Isn't that the idea behind QE? The money supply is growing but the number of bonds is not?

#7A link to a claim on reddit with no citation. Not saying it's wrong but it's certainly not a quality post.

#8What is the source? Mainly are we talking about cash or are we talking about money created by banks via credit?

Alternatively, it might turn out to be a pretty good counterbalance to China's tampering with their money supply to keep the yuan artificially much cheaper than it would be in a free market.

#10I'm admittedly new to this but there is mention that the supply should double every 10 years, which it looks like it hasn't (or just right at), are we playing catch up?
Is the 10 year from an inflation target?
2004 - 2014 was an 80% growth.
2001 - 2011 was 60% growth
2011 it was 9600, today it is around 18k, seems like we're on track to 2021 and playing catchup.
What am I not understanding?
