MMT isn’t helicopter drops
Scott Sumner | Ralph G. Hawtrey Chair of Monetary Policy at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University
This funny Sumner:
ReplyDelete“Thus (AFAIK), under MMT the rate of inflation is determined by fiscal policy. If that were true, then central banks would be wasting their time in targeting inflation. Inflation in the US has averaged 1.9% since 1990. If MMT were true, then it would have been fiscal policymakers that caused inflation to be close to 2%, and not close to 0% or 5% or 20%.Fiscal policymakers?”
So he implies cb is not “wasting their time” But then you have the platonistic CB people going all around all the time scratching their heads they can’t hit their “inflation!” target with rates at zero or below and the highest ranking economist in the US at the time J Yellen saying that they don’t even know how “inflation!” is operating or perhaps what it is...
This is where platonism leads you every time ... right thru the broad gate and into the moron pasture..., it should be ideally banned ...
