In the 80's we began to export our jobs, unions, and our pollution to the third world. Then, technologic unemployment in the form of personal computers and software killed off not just jobs, but cities and towns, like Detroit MI, Youngstown OH, Buffalo, NY. I argue that what killed inflation was not the Federal Reserve but rather the erasure of the middle class.
