Maria: |
So what's all the fuss about? Why do politicians make such a big deal of inflation? |
Ziliak: |
In addition to the problems we've mentioned-hyperinflation, unanticipated inflation, senior citizens and the poor and disabled living on fixed incomes-there's another problem, a moral problem. When the government issues money, it has an obligation to see that the money retains its value. At least that's what most economists believe. By permitting inflation to set in-at some level-the government fails to live up to that obligation. The trick is to figure out the right level for your economy. |
Klamer: |
Inflation is bad enough, but I think unemployment is a much more serious problem. If I had to make a choice I'd choose less unemployment in exchange for a little more inflation. |
McCloskey: |
I prefer lower inflation every time. Unemployment would vanish if we just let the markets work. |
Klamer: |
We disagree! |
