"Money supply inflation + debt = pain. Ask the Roman Empire"
drift wood catch of the day

how much asset inflation
can dance on the head
of the real products economy ????

long run

"CPI deflation is the optimum state for long term growth"

that is all technical progress should immediately movetoward consumer surplus
minimize the rent sumps

but dear soul
the rent sump builders control the economy
if we don't manage effective demand
ie feed the sumps
and thus validate the sumps
the sumpholders
will throw us out of our jobs and ...our homes

despite a visionary aspect
i can admire
you
are after the full ally is in
just a vicious pangloss

basement model train set
open the market throttle
freeze the money stock
type gulliverian engineers
need to be shrunk to h/o/scale
and tied to their own toy railroad tracks

...
"During the entire quarter century from 1927 to 1954, interest rates were frequently "negative" and were in no way correlated with high inflation"

thank you ndd
for serving up
a healthy plate of dignified data

...
"a substantial widening of credit spreads"

and recall
rates are but poor proxy players
to the real deal
the change in value
of the vast network of credit flows
so dolefully doled out
by our hi fi dukes

long run:
"Lower prices means more demand for a greater quantity of useful products"

what dear soul are u holding constant here

" Look at virtually any supply/demand chart. Endless inflation just creates demand for bubbles, not useful products that Americans make "

i spell and type in gibberish
but you seem to think in gibberish
