    I sort of agree with most of what you say however the most important thing to have is stable money. At the moment i don't believe we need interest rates at 15-20% and i say this because if you look around the world or even just NZ for example they only went into to the 5's for interest rates and that has brought inflation down at least temporarily whereas us still having low rates in the 4's isn't pulling inflation down the same.

    Interest rates can do the job quickly though, Treasury's own bullshit you mentioned is simply bullshit to fit their narrative, if we put rates up to 10 or 15% next week you'll find inflation crashes quickly, thus rates are simply not high enough to have a big enough counter effect on government spending and borrowing which is the true driver of inflation, western governments simply spend and borrow too much and to make it worse they waste the mkoney they spend and borrow rather than using it constructively, they are marxists, communists. socialists or whatever else you want to call them.

    The best solution is to vote for a government that has correct fiscal policies for the times we are facing, a good government would look like Thatchers or Reagans at the present time, Governments need to cut spending, cut regulations and cut taxes. I.E :- they need to cut the costs of production on businesses to help eliminate the inflation and if they do this interest rates won't have to rise as much or to the numbers like 15-20% that you mention.

    In the 60's or 70's it took the people about 15yrs to eventually vote correctly, we are only at the 4 or 5 yr mark at the moment this time but things may happen quicker these days however i'm not sure.
