It's All About the Benjamins, Baby: The Great Inflation Debate

On Wednesday, April 11, AFF hosted the roundtable "It's All About the Benjamins, Baby: The Great Inflation Debate." Last November one of few positives Republican candidates could point to was a strong economy. But how strong is it? Is the U.S. economy booming or ridden with hidden inflation? America's Future Foundation is set to tackle the great macroeconomic debate within the supply-side movement: monetary policy. What is the best indicator of inflation? How can the Fed bet fight off inflation? How does the spot price of gold fit into the equation? Discussing these issues were John Tamny, editor of RealClearMarkets and Dan Mitchell of the Cato Institute. Sean Rushton moderated.
