You're going to want to do some research before you post to this discussion board.

We have heard some rumors that the current economic situation is a repeat of the STAGFLATION that we experienced in the 1970's and 1980's. The increase in inflationary pressures along with the lackluster growth in the economy has drawn this comparison.

Research this topic. Look at articles that dealt with the 70's and 80's stagflation and the literature on the current economic situation and comment (make this a good length).

Are we looking at a repeat of the past stagflation or is the current scenario different? We sure to support your answer. Also be sure to cite the literature that you used to state your opinion.

This is an individual assignment and copying material from articles and using it as your own work will result in stiff penalties.

You will most likely want to put your thoughts together in Word and past it into the discussion board when you are done.

I lived through the stagflation of the past, so I am well versed in what happened, so think carefully.
