Inflation or Deflation?
Much of these "inflation hawks" rely on some work by economist Milton Friedman who many of the "supply side" economists of the Reagan era studied, and created "trickle down" economics.
On the flip side, what is often considered the opposite of "supply side" is "demand side" economics which says you can't have inflation without sufficient demand. Unemployment is thought to be a major factor in loss of demand, and most inflation has historically been during times of low unemployment. The exception being manipulation of commodities such as oil when we saw $140 oil recently, and oil shortages in the 70s which helped fuel the belief in "supply side" economics.
Here is a quote from the newsletter:
In 2008, when the fed purchased all manner of securities, to the tune of about $1.2 trillion, the fed was not "printing money". Bank deposits at the fed exploded to the upside, the monetary base rose from $800 billion to $2.1 trillion, yet no money was "printed". Deposits did not rise, loans were not made, income was not lifted, and output did not surge. |
