Inflation is a tax. Public Debt is a tax. These are delayed taxes for the future.<br /><br />Neither Porter nor I proposed raising taxes, inflation or public debt. That was Porter's prediction of what government will do, for which there is ample historical evidence.<br /><br />Thanks for your comment.Craig Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16870998488765776509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2459084158135175319.post-82028345206450339912012-02-27T10:26:58.802-07:002012-02-27T10:26:58.802-07:00I disagree with you on one point: the political s...I disagree with you on one point: the political solution will not be higher taxes. As your mathematics point out, regardless of how much you tax Americans, it could never really solve the issue. The "actual" political solution in my opinion is to run a high rate of inflation over the course of 20 years. If you ran a 20% inflation rate for 20 years, then all of the mathematical problems mentioned above, in your article, would be solved. Of course, it would result in a huge degredation of the average standard of living in our country, but the point is, it would solve the mathematical problems you presented.Djangofanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09632187304396479089noreply@blogger.com
