Inflation roundtable this week...
This Wednesday, April 11th, AFF will host the roundtable "It's All About the Benjamins, Baby: The Great Inflation Debate." Last November one of the few positives a Republican candidate 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? Joining us to discuss these issues is John Tamny, editor of RealClearMarkets and Stephen Moore of The Wall Street Journal.

The event will take place at the Fund for American Studies, 1706 New Hampshire Avenue, NW, near Dupont Circle. Drinks at 6:30; Roundtable begins at 7:00. Roundtables are free for members, $5 for non-members. So join today! Please RSVP to Kathleen O'Hearn at kathleen@americasfuture.org.

Doublethink new issue launch party...
To celebrate Doublethink's spring issue, join us for a launch party at the Science Club on Tuesday, April 17th at 6 p.m. The editors and writers of the magazine will be there, so come by and raise a glass. The address is 1136 19th Street NW, and the nearest Metro stops are Farragut North on the Red Line and Farragut West on the Orange and Blue. We'll be on the second floor. As always, there is no cover and there are beer, wine, and rail drink specials.
