Question

[edit]

Does this term really exist in genuine economics literature, or was it invented by somebody as a neologism backformed from stagflation for shits and giggles? Bearcat (talk) 23:44, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to be a genuine neologism created and used by journalists and bloggers. Cites: [1] [2] [3]. Could AfD it, but IMO, it is probably notable enough for inclusion (marginally). LK (talk) 05:30, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It appears to be less an accepted and understood economical concept and more a "trendy new word"(some forum users phrasing). Not sure if it's notable enough yet, but it could be in the future. Ink Falls 00:36, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
