No, I'm talking about the fact that the government does not print American money. If America did, we could have all of the money backed up or fortified with gold instead of gold barely existing behind each dollar. So the amount of money people would need should go down. (hence inflation would come down since the dollar would represent gold more instead of the Federal Reserve over making money to cause inflation which is less gold existing behind the dollar) Money would have more value making less needed to be printed. This is all from my understanding of things though so i could be wrong.
