The issue at hand - the issue you raised in your
previous post - is the inverse relation****p between
the size of the federal deficit and the value of the
dollar. That *is* your claim, is it not? How does
any of the above substantiate your point (if that
is what your point is) when, in fact, it seems to
indicate exactly the opposite - meaning low de-
ficits under Carter leading to the decline in the
value of the dollar, and Reagan's record deficits
bringing it back up?
