Thursday, April 27th

Classes continued discussing and being lectured on the relationships between the value of money, jobs, wages, increasing and decreasing GDP, and inflation.

The class learned about inflationary spirals. Periods, 3 and 4 learned about the Housing Bubble (period 2 will learn about it next class).

The class discussed at length how the Federal Reserves target of 2% inflation is aimed at steady economic growth. The class discussed the belief that wages should increase at a rate slightly higher than inflation to also stimulate growth of GDP.
