I don't think so... She did a pretty good job, I thought, of explaining that when it comes to the federal government spending that current models seem to ignore that federal deficits have a corresponding benefit on the other side of the balance sheet.

Stimulus for the rich.

Also keep in mind, when you increase inflation, it screws everyone.

Price inflation of goods? @Maw

What doesn't exists? Currency represents value, right? If our economy has continually grown, that value is represented somehow.

There may not be enough stimulus to inflate demand.

Price inflation of goods translates to the dollar meaning less, which anyone that stores money in fiat form gets screwed.

They just keep changing the way that they define inflation...

Not really..?

Clearly understood.

Inflation has several indexes. For example CPI or consumer price index vs PPI or producer price index.

Big Mac Index.

Lot of ways to define it.

Maybe I should say indices but I think either is correct. In finance they usually say indices.

Burgernomics just sounds more tasty.

noticing shrinkflation on a lot of fast food items.. @Maw

Big Mac index is actually a measure of purchasing power parity but same principle. I mean I would give you at least 3/4 points on a test for that answer.

But increased margins!

If you are serious about MMT @TaLoN132 then go read monetarist ideas about money. Have an actual balanced debate in your head.

Just my thoughts.
