Serious question: stagflation - WWYD?

Imagine you’re in charge of monetary policy

You’re basically forced to choose between:

a massive outbreak of inflation and potential hyperinflation

Or

Massive unemployment and a potential deflationary spiral that lasts generations


Assume for present purposes you’re in too much debt to engage in fiscal expansion

What do you do and why?

I would choose massive deflation and unemployment...... Then I would unleash an engineered flu and force people to get an experimental vaccination that will weaken their immune system....

And then i would orchestrate WWIII to wipe out 50% of the world's population....

And finally, would replace all currencies with a single worldwide digital currency...

This post is satirical and not to be taken seriously....

3. Pick option two

Sounds like a sweet gig, why would I do anything more than I am getting paid for?

Edit : Crap, I forgot to mention my sweet pension package, all taxpayer funded of course.
That’s a lot of words to say “option 1”
