QE got us into this mess.
Pandemic stimulus got us into this mess, but it is better than the alternative. trump is getting us into a worse mess.

There was years of QT before the inflation, so you cannot blame the QE for the inflation.

trump wants a 1% prime rate, which would allow backdoor QE, and shoot up inflation.

of course we can blame qe for inflation.

inflation and cheap money is a cheap trick all politicians use.

it just makes everyone happy, future be damned.
 
no.

that's exactly the opposite of fighting inflation, you fucking idiot.
QE is for fighting deflation, once you have hit zero interest rates. QT is for unwinding the QE positions, and fighting inflation. Higher interest rates is the main way to fight inflation. Unlike lower interest rates, there is no solid upper ceiling that you cannot go above.

yeah.

I saw you typed deflation not inflation.

the only people who fear deflation are shysters.

people who work like their money being more valuable.

Yes, lower interest rates, and then when they hit zero QE, is to fight deflation. And, higher interest rates, and if you have done QE in the past, reversing it with QT, is to fight inflation.

We had deflation, and the danger of deflation in 2008, so fought it with lower interest rates, and then QE. We began unwinding the QE with QT, and raising interest rates. The pandemic hit America hard, but not as hard as the rest of the world, and that caused inflation, more than a decade later. The inflation is close to 2%, but not quite there. The last 1 or 2% is sometimes very hard.

Anyway, trump is pushing up inflation with tariffs. Now he is demanding that interest rates be dropped to 1%. This will all cause massive inflation, in about a year.

Deflation kills banks, businesses, entrepreneurs, and even empires. It is very bad stuff.

people who work like their money being more valuable.
Deflation gives workers a raise for doing nothing. The problem is that causes businesses to have to layoff workers.
