Levine and Minkoff, a long-time Mattel Toys veteran, both transferred from the hand-held Mattel game engineering team. Obviously the price of gold can no longer plunge, as the price of the MOA is fixed by definition. The awful situation that took place on the 24th of February, he says, referring to the start of Russias unprovoked war against Ukraine. The HPE in money is really a confused reference to the law of marginal utility in the context of individuals who spend more money, who were previously accepters of more money.

Financial prices up means yields lower means real goods and services prices up (eventually if were not in case 5b and Fed is doing a credible job of targeting a higher inflation rate or NGDPLT).

Im also not sure what to make of your comment on interest rates. You simply do monetary policy by adjusting the demand for MOA to control its value, not the supply. For example, Start here: $800 billion in currency, $200 billion in central bank reserves, and $6.2 trillion in demand deposits with a zero fed funds rate. In lending decisions income is the deciding factor (at least now again). And I believe the same about the Wicksellian equilibrium fed funds rate (in reverse). You are right, incorrect wording from my side. They constantly boost themselves. And in that case, as you point out, open market operations have no effect., any reasonable reader will understand I am saying interest rates will have to be zero forever, not just currently, when money has no role as MOE. Here you are simply stubbornly clinging to an abundantly disproved hypothesis. Your spending has taken no spending power form me. The next day the banks attempt to take back the $800 billion in currency. The merchants now hold the equivalent of 20% more of the economys gold supply. 2) Only a impermanent MOA injection can be used to hit a target. 3) The fed does not refuse currency sent back to it.

Tom, I agree that a NGDPLT policy (which is to provide base money as need) is better than the current QE oriented regime. My NGDP futures plan need not involve any fiscal effects because it can be set up so that the Fed never takes a net long or short positive.. To boil it down even simpler, I presented two cases: A.
