minus-squarerbhfd@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·edit-21 year agoAre you really saying printing money is the only possible cause for inflation?
minus-squareCanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·1 year agoI mean, it will always tend to cause inflation, and pulling money out of circulation will basically always tend to cause deflation. I hope that’s all that is meant here, since yeah there’s a lot of other factors involved in what’s actually measured.
minus-squaredetectivemittens@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down1·1 year agoHmm, generally the Econ professors I’ve seen/heard interviewed usually say that printing money is not the only cause of inflation. But I see read/hear things from sources not on a large TV network news station, so maybe that’s why.
