Fooling around with a national currency via central bank tricks is the most easiest way for governmental officials to get rich quick. You are getting something for nothing. The middle class and the poor are paying for that nothing in the form of a lowered standard of living. Since they don't know macro-economics very well they are easily fooled by politicians and central bank attendants. They can tell them anything and the workers will accept it as fact.
Using this quote you couldnt tell if you were talking about the DR or the USA. Same tricks at the Fed.
