The current money regime in the United States and abroad has led to a squandered economic miracle, a global financial crisis, a decade of increasingly severe economic sclerosis, and now the Great Pandemic Inflation that has culminated in the present Great Disinflation.
How would these events have been different if the US had come out of the trauma of its greatest peacetime inflation and its aftermath, which occurred between 1975 and 1993, with a good money regime?
The US political system urgently needs to come to grips with this monetary malaise instead of persevering with the failed 2-percent-inflation standard and its current box of tools. The authors of the just-published A Guide to Good Money (Palgrave, 2022) will talk with Hudson Senior Fellow Harold Furchtgott-Roth about the essence of good money, how this regime differs from the present “moderately bad” money regime, and how to get from bad to good.
Join Senior Fellow Dr. Rebeccah Heinrichs and Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) for a fireside discussion on how Congress can guide American strategy, the need to modernize the defense industrial base, and the vital role of allies and partners in an unstable international environment.
Join Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Robert McDowell for a discussion of the book and communications law with the authors, Harold Furchtgott-Roth, Kirk Arner, and Arielle Roth.
Please join Congressman Jimmy Panetta (D-CA) and Senior Fellow Ken Moriyasu for a discussion on Central Asia’s economic and strategic significance and why updating US trade policy is key to unlocking the region’s potential in an era of renewed great power competition.
