'''Monetarism''' is an economically [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism|right]] ideology, whose general economic theory was created by [[File:Friedman.png]] [[Chicago School|Milton Friedman]] to cure inflation. He believes that the government's primary role in the economy should be monetary policy with the goal of keeping inflation under control. Specifically, he thinks that there should be a very low inflation rate (1%-3%), and he wants this to be as stable as possible, since it being stable eliminates the market distortion both non-stable inflation/deflation brings. In modern times, several Monetary Authorities, notably Former Federal Reserve Chair and Nobel Prize winner Ben Bernanke, have been monetarists. Monetarist policies were used by Bernanke during the 2008 Great Recession with expansion of QE (Quantitative Easing) and the overall expansion of Money Supply. |
