And yet inflation is not calming down and has actually been going up again over the past few months. I wonder if the Federal Reserve will just give up on getting inflation back down to 2% and say okay our new target is 3%.
They will not. They reasserted that they're getting to 2% at this meeting.
They don't have to do anything but not cut for long enough and they'll get to 2%, it's just a matter of how much damage they do along the way.
Exactly, it's how much damage they'll do in the process. The Fed creates recessions and then booms with their monetary printing. Take the money printer away from them and you solve a lot of the problems. Because you adopt a sound money. Whether it be gold and silver or Monero. They all have limited supplies.
Spoken like someone who has loose understand of what they actually do.
Yeah, they balance inflation and unemployment. The idea of "sound money" is literal fools gold. We had currency backed by gold for thousands of years. There was a major recession every few years.
Every time some monarch coughed, there was a recession. If there was too much wheat, or not enough wheat: recession. The Federal Reserve has managed to save the economy during a literal world stopping pandemic. It's part of the reason why people use the US Dollar as the reserve currency.
What were they supposed to do? At this point all it seems the fed is doing is aggressively demolishing the power of labour and arming the owner class with more financial control.
