El FMI sugiere duplicar la inflación

"Tal vez los que deciden las políticas tendrían que tender hacia tasas de inflación más altas en períodos normales para poder incrementar el radio de acción para que la política monetaria reaccione ante los shocks"
Por cierto, la suba que menciona Olivier Blanchard, jefe de investigaciones económia del FMI, es de 2% anual a 4%.

y el economist compra el cuco de los banqueros, mientras sea cuquito:
“To central bankers, inflation is a bogeyman. But to good economists, inflation is merely a variable, an economic indicator over which governments have some control and which they can manipulate to good or ill effect. The right approach to inflation is to carefully weigh the costs and benefits of a higher target and determine if, as seems likely, it would be a good idea. It strikes me as a very good thing that prominent economists are raising these questions, and it would be a better thing still if central bankers would stop running in fear from the idea of higher inflation and start engaging the arguments on the table.”
