| Apr 30, 2014 at 5:11 | comment | added | Tatpurusha | This is the wrong SE for this, but basically, supply of money is determined in no small part by interest rates because money supply is mostly created by various elements of fractional-reserve banking. Higher interest rates create "more money" and lower create less. Conversely, without inflation, there's less incentive to charge higher interest rates. I should say that inflation and interest rates are correlated. | |

| Apr 30, 2014 at 3:42 | comment | added | Shmuel | Inflation is caused by the supply of money. I've never seen a model that claimed it was caused by usury or interest-payments in general. Could you provide a source? | |
| Apr 30, 2014 at 3:27 | comment | added | Tatpurusha | According to some economic models, inflation is more or less caused by usury. At any rate, the halakha remains that we don't charge interest and don't concern ourselves with changing values-- I think because it would open the door too wide. | |
