dumbmoney, Re: < In that event, deflation is happening, so the solution is to target a positive inflation rate. I wouldn't worry - if there's anything that governments know how to do, it's generating inflation.>

Which is quite likely to get you stag-flation as last seen in the 70s. That's an economy going nowhere combined with inflation. It took Paul Volker and interest rates near 20% to break that cycle last time.

That's something you *REALLY* don't want to see.
