Takes time for government fiat money to flow through the system. Pretty soon prices skyrocket. Watch gas, food and real estate. Not your house, though. Only government financed companies. Bought and paid for, of course.
After all no such thing as a free lunch from this gang.

Commodity Bull Market: Inflaton Isn't Here Yet - Here's When You Can Expect It
This time around, should we expect things to move more rapidly or more slowly than average? My bet is on slow, which would push the peak inflation rate out toward the end of 2012. One reason for slow is that the government's rescue packages are delaying the process. Rescuing banks that are choking on bad loans postpones the day of reckoning for both the banks and the loan customers. It retards the pace of foreclosure sales (whether of real estate or other collateral) and puts the deleveraging that has been going on since last fall into slow motion. A wilting of the recent stock market rally would confirm this.
Investment Implications
The big plus about the Mayan calendar is that, right or wrong, it is very definite about things. Human civilization will come to an end, I'm told, on Dec. 21, 2012 – not on the 20th and not on the 22nd. There was no room for monetarists in those step-sided pyramids, but there still are few what-to-do implications from the monetarist findings.
