Your boss has asked you to obtain marketing feedback on one of the products your company produces. However, people are less likely to respond honestly if they know it is the company requesting the information. Therefore your boss tells you to use a fake marketing research name.

Is it possible to decrease inflation without causing a recession and its concomitant increase in unemployment? the orthodox answer is “no.” whether they support the “inertia” theory of inflation (that today's inflation rate is caused by yesterday's inflation, the state of the economic cycle, and external influences such as import prices) or the “rational expectations” theory (that inflation is caused by workers' and employers' expectations, coupled with a lack of credible monetary and fiscal policies), most economists agree that tight monetary and fiscal policies, which cause recessions, are necessary to decelerate inflation.
