PRINTING MONEY CAUSES HYPERINFL-

The Fed increased the monetary base by 5x during the Great Recession. Where's the hyperinflation?

>inflate the supply of good
>thinks it doesn't effect the price

Even for a slide thread, this is retarded.

How much do things cost now compared to then?

>strawman
>value of 1 american dollar then vs now.jpg

pork price is the same as 20 years ago, oil price is the same as 10 years ago, as for canada well...

>What is quantitative easing

But anyway, the point you're missing is that during the recession a huge amount of value simply disappeared off the books. Evaluations changed, and money that was promised based on those evaluations changed. This is extremely important because the vast majority of money in the system at this point exists on books due to lending.

So, what should have happened is rapid deflation as people scramble for assets that don't lose their value and the money supply retracts. The government adopted rapid expansionary policies to prevent deflation.

>Why did it not cause hyper inflation?
Because the system was deflating simultaneously.

come again?

you're lying and that's what I expected from a cutdick brain damaged retard

It's masked by low commodity prices, dummy. The amount of gold it takes to buy things remains the same.

Petrodollar allows US to export inflation abroad

Every restaurant I have gone too since then has gone up in price noticably

Many even had to lower quality and eventually shut down or just sellout to a corp and start sucking

Foods up like fking 10% seems like unless you buy low quality trash

where's it at?
oh i dunno, dick head, its everywhere, the prices of items, have you seen health care costs? how about house costs? oh right, you wouldn't because you're a basement dwelling faggot
kys

Consumables aren't inflating.
Assets on the otherhand are.
Along with cost of education.

You can eat steak and potatoes at home for very little more than the price of a fucking big-mac meal.

Why the fuck wouldn't you eat at home?

Sent offshore or into assets.

>people getting poorer slowly instead of swiftly

$21 Trillion has been added to the US economic system in the last 20 years. That's a lot of cash and I'm not entirely certain the reasons offered are adequate to answer that. There's a mattress with the US GDP under it, and nobody knows where.

Products and services are priced in dollars for goods produced overseas. This is a result of the petrodollar.

When an american buys a greek woven basket, they pay in dollars, when an american buys oil from kuwait it pays in dollars, when america buys japanese cameras it pays in dollars.

American exports its hyperinflation by other countries holding the dollars, one side affect is foreign investment in stateside real estate, causing a bubble, because those dollars have nowhere to go.

Once countries realize its a scam hyperinflation will hit so quick you will be amazed. Gold will probably hit a hundred thousand dollars an ounce within the space of a month.

Do people not econ ? It's MV = Py not M=P

considering our stated national debt is $22G you get the idea. indebtedness of the federal government in order to continue the service based economy that couldn't even begin to build a manufacturing sector 10% the size of China.

22 gorillion?

The hyperinflation is in the market. Look at fucking stock prices. That’s why we are seeing daily 500 point swings. Dumb fuck.

The fed sells it's bonds.

>print money buy bonds, new money is flowings
> sell bonds take cash back.

Time to feed niggers with bark

The dollar has lost 98% of its value since the fed was installed. The money is kept from being worthless only by the petrodollar

>they gave it all to 1% of the population

It didnt cause hyper inflation it was the most massive wealth transfer the world has ever witnessed.

The average wealth of an american was dilutted by 80% while the average wealth of the rich was increased by 500%

This didnt cause ‘hyper inflation’ because the wealthy cant consume rice and beans. They consume luxery goods and assets.

/thread

OP -> Because the way banks are using this money increases speculative prices, not the prices of the goods.

the banks tightened lending standards around the same time.
banks weren't lending as liberally as before

this

it's balanced approximately by strong deflationary pressures. doesn't mean it's healthy
