- paloaltokid 6y agoI think you might be misunderstanding the parent's point. The inflation is already here! Indeed, inflation is how the economy is managed. As much as inflation sucks, economists would way rather have that as a problem than deflation.
- centimeter 6y agoThe US has its “exorbitant privilege” - a pretty thick buffer of seignorage profits it can extract without running into hyperinflation. This buffer is substantial, but finite.
