Yeah there's so much wrong here that it's difficult to know where to start. I guess maybe let's start with, inflation isn't determined by how many raw dollars are printed, and population rises aren't being taken into effect, both of which will heavily change his end result.
Mfs still subscribe to inflation theory from 200 years ago smh…
Money is printed in accordance to inflation, among other things, but it’s not the cause. Ffs. The US printed trillions during and after the 2008 crash and there was barely any inflation then.
Glad to see this here. The way some leftists are repeating libertarian talking points about inflation these days is disturbing.
It's intuitive because it follows from personal experiences with money. Having read and seen information on this, perhaps what gave me the clearest intuition was Randall Wray's intro to MMT lectures. Perhaps throwing one of the simplest ones at leftists spouting this stuff would work for them too.
Seriously someone thinks that inflation is equal to increase in money supply? 🤦♂️🤦🤦♀️
I mean it's /r/wallstreetbets lol
