p.s. Regarding inflation, which is a tax, and most brutally applied to lower classes, nothing about the Federal Reserve's  "2% target" should be aceeptable.  Zero is a nice round number and is actually attainable. We did it when currencies were backed by actual gold rather than an 'inflation target'.

An economy without inflation is an economy with a throttled money supply; you probably prefer to live in a modern economy with a bit of inflation as a drop of oil in the workings (similar to a bike chain, dripping in oil is as bad a no oil at all).
For the impact of throttled money supply, just read books about the British economy in the decades after they had to pay for Richard Lionheart's ransom.
