Central Banks Tightening Could Choke Out Middle Class

Bank interest rates are on the rise. The Federal Reserve have poured vast amounts of money to boost the economy during the past two years to stimulate spending.

The risk is that the extra money causes inflation and rises in prices – and it is happening now.

Where will it all end? Recession?

Professor Richard Wolff joins Thom Hartmann to explain that world governments are running scared about inflation.
