Money supply explanation

Just wanted to point people at this post, cause the video is interesting. I'd also like to plug my response on the post, because I've been meaning to write my own blog entry on it, but for now the response will suffice. I'm not sure how important it is for the average person to understand how the money supply works, and coincidentally inflation/deflation, but I'm pretty sure it's vital that if we want to preserve our monetary system and likely our country as a whole, we get some people who do understand it and care about preserving it making decisions about it, instead of the hopelessly corrupt blithering idiots in Congress currently.
