How bad is inflation, and what can we do about it?  Economist and commentator Alan Cole joins the podcast to discuss all things inflation. We discuss whether inflation is 'transitory' or not, how wage growth factors into the picture, when we might see a return to more normal inflation numbers, and whether the government is lying to you about the real inflation rate.   Check out Alan at https://fullstackeconomics.com/ To make sure you hear every episode, join our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/neoliberalproject.
