These rates were as low as that under Obama for his whole 2 terms
A recession might happen
But that causes self-reinforcing positive feedback loops like the periodic panics and depressions of the 1800s that caused huge market volatility and made it hard for businesses to expand
due to cheap credit
Of course raising interest rates fast is also a problem
There was no cheap credit in the 1800s
it's what caused the 20-21 recession
There was
I listed it above
however there was cheap credit before the 20-21 recession aswell
It's why the business cycle exists, infact under a capitalist system a recession wouldn't even occur
What
the Business cycle is completely artifical
and so are recessions
That’s just pie-in-the-sky idealism
It’s like saying communism would work perfectly
Or any system would work perfectly
No it wouldn't because you can't surpress markets
You can’t avoid market fluctuations and downturns
You can
What
the whole reason the boom and bust cycle exists is due to cheap credit and interest rates manipulations by central planners
or it wouldn't exist
You’re going against basically all of any economic theory ever in history.
No
There *was* no central bank in America for much of the 1800s.
Austrian economists agree with me
there was a treasury and legislation
and there was central banks
Read what I said above dude
Market fluctuations are an inseparable part of a capitalist economy.
No it is not
Boom and bust cycles do not exist in a capitalist market
the free market does handle allocation of resources perfectly
And remember, America wasn't a free market in the 1800s
there was more intervention than people think
Thats not what the Austrian school thinks
anyways
But i'm pretty sure thats wrong
