Quotations about inflation | |
Inflation is the one form of taxation that can be imposed without legislation. It is impossible that a country should enjoy any tolerable or continuous prosperity if the price of the main article of the laborer's food be subject to sudden and considerable fluctuations. Lowering the value of the currency...has a favorable influence upon effectual demand. But currency cannot always go on sinking in value, otherwise its power as a medium of exchange would altogether cease; and its recoil is attended with calamities which far more than counterbalance the advantages which accompanied its descent. |
