Yes, you do miss something. The issue has been raising rates when job growth exceeds full employment, which is when many minorities start getting jobs, for fear of inflation. Promoting an overshoot allows more of those jobs to persist. This isn’t inflation for inflation’s sake.

@federalreserve : we will fight racism. @CLASP_DC : “inflation reinforces economic disparities” Also @federalreserve in 2020: WE NEED MORE INFLATION. Is there something Im not getting here? How are you going to claim to help people by hurting them? @neelkashkari @RaphaelBostic

Hey @gbenga_ajilore , That was actually in Isabel Wilkerson’s Warmth of Other Sons, a great book btw. @kairyssdal introduced it and I gave a similar analogy a friend gave me about scales falling from people’s eyes in the last few weeks. It is a great line, and so true.

No. We had the Great Recession because risks built up that cascaded into the wider financial mkt and then into the broader economy. Unempl below NAIRU has been associated with elevated levels of risk-taking. Hence the relationship. But I’m pretty sure you know this.
