Interest rate hikes will fix inflation faster than cutting business costs.

Daily Debate #566: "Interest rate hikes will fix inflation faster than cutting business costs.". You are arguing FOR the motion. Your opponent: Marcus Aurelius.

hi

You're here to argue that rate hikes crush inflation faster than cutting business costs. That's backwards. Hikes destroy demand through pain, while cost-cutting actually solves the supply problem driving prices up. Why should we tank the economy when we could fix the real bottleneck?

what, i just said hi you wrote a whole essay

Fair. You caught me. So let's go: do you actually think hiking rates faster than cutting costs fixes inflation, or are you just showing up?

what

You're dodging. Either defend rate hikes or admit cost-cutting solves inflation better. Which is it?
