Just do a Venezuela and have government mandated price caps for everything. Then watch all the goods instantly evaporate off the shelves as people buy below cost, the businesses all close and then everyone has nothing but worthless junk money.

Is that capitalism Venezuela or the Venezuela that the CIA did a coup on?

Hang on... I'm getting a message that those are the same Venezuela.

Don’t know why these posts is what made me personally connect the dots.

If inflation is too many employed poor people. And those at the top (who own all the stocks in companies) are systematically prevented from losing any significant amount of wealth. How can enough companies have a large enough losses to lay off significant portions of their workforce?

Wouldn’t that mean that lots of important people lost a lot of money? Isn’t that an inherent contradiction at this point in time?

I get that there will be small waves of layoffs to juice stock prices at various points. But they will be small and uncoordinated. So there will usually be somewhere for those people to land.

Am I missing something, or have I just caught up with the rest of the posters here?

I mean significant layoffs combined with not letting companies fail would be even worse since production would decrease. Everyone gaining in lockstep wouldn't be as bad as that.

im convinced that's a solid view of whats happening under the hood.

Delta-Wye posted:

this is probably true, it's too much money chasing too few goods and services

not a single anti-inflationary measure ive seen describes a path towards increasing production, just towards subsidizing some folks (lol) and selectively increasing economic pain for other folks (lmao) while the problem worsens

if our productive capacity keeps dropping as a result of trade wars, actual war resulting in retooling, layoffs, whatever, the problem deepens. its a death spiral and noone in charge is even hinting they're looking in this direction

edit: i can sleep well at night knowing that the rich wont be impacted. maybe that will even be me someday!

Even better- bailouts for the rest of all time. There's pretty much no way to walk back "all deposits are insured completely" without blowing absolutely everything up in completely disastrous ways
