More money does equal inflation depending economic slack and productivity of the spending (aka ROI). That is not controversial in my opinion and does not need debunking. Derping from that to jerbs guarantee is what I am highlighting as poorly substantiated. And given what you have provided as a thread (watch this video) , I have been more substantive than anyone here. Even JVS just called you a dummy and moved on.
So I was discussing MMT, because that is where the discussion went.
Are you familiar with the idea inflation driven by the policy of full employment post WWII, led to a capital strike, because if your real rate of return is 5%, and inflation is 7%, you are better off stashing your cash in the matress, hence stagflation in the 70's followed by the systemic dismantling of labors leverage that created said inflation, through the liberalization of capital, aka the neo-liberal period, until the housing bubble showed the fatal flaw of this new era?
If not, please go to the 6 minute mark, and hear this argument made much better than I just did.
