- Jim Hranicky: No, I was not referring to Keynes at all. This was my
- point, that to say that "inflation was wrong" (or "is" wrong)
- presupposes that someone is responsible for inflation. But I contend
- that inflation can happen naturally. Ignring the government for a moment
- (a wise policy, in any case), we have secxxx several factors conspiring,
- som,e towards an increase in price level, some against. There is
- nothing which says that a priori (for you Latin snobs out there) that
- a "healthy, productive economy" will experience deflation or price
- constancy.
