But, like so many of the justifications that politicians and bureaucrats offer for their actions, this one is a lie.
A rapid expansion of the money supply is economically destructive, as it impoverishes the poor and middle classes, exacerbates wealth inequality, and permits a dangerous growth in state power.
“Monetary inflation confers no general social benefit; instead, it redistributes the wealth in favor of the first – and at the expense of the laggards to the race. And inflation is, in effect, a race – to see who can get the new money earliest. The latecomers – the ones stuck with the loss – are often called the ‘fixed income groups’.”
Murray Rothbard, What has Government Done to Our Money?
