Dollar Devaluation: Economists Misunderstand Inflation

Economists have been debating inflation in recent times, but according to John Tamny, they're missing the point. In his latest article, Tamny argues that economists are confusing inflation with a shrinking dollar unit, rather than understanding it as a fundamental aspect of monetary policy.

Tamny cites Treasury as the mouthpiece for this concept, explaining that inflation is not just about rising prices or economic growth, but rather about the value of the dollar decreasing over time. He also mentions Kevin Warsh and Scott Bessent in his critique, highlighting their differing views on inflation.
