the reason the fed wants 3-4% inflation is to help drive the economy.

That level of inflation halves your savings every 20 years. Without that, most people would stop working when they had enough.

Relatively High Inflation is a key component on a path to reduce the Debt.

I don’t see it helping much at all, given the Congresses of the last 50 years.

Sad for my GrandKids.
