That Sumner post is a gold mine. This is from a comment by Bill Woolsey:
Where a 1% growth path for nominal GDP and 2% trend deflation is workable, so is a 3% growth path for nominal GDP and a stable price level. As well as a 5% growth path with 2% trend inflation.
GYAH! The problem is not to pick the level of inflation that we're happy with. The problem is to get real GDP to grow faster.
