Cutting and pasting someone else’s work is not a discussion. Not to mention what you added didn’t exactly contradict my take so there’s not much else to say.

I mean, I did contradict your take. I contradict that inflation dropped primarily due to Carter picking Volker, or that dropping oil prices were a major factor. How much more contradictory can I be?

There's plenty of other takes that contradict yours as well, like this one: https://www.forbes.com/sites/briandomitrovic/2011/02/07/volc...

The authors claims that the Reagan tax cuts were a key ingredient without which the inflation reduction may not have occurred at all, or it at least would have occurred at a much slower rate.

But, look at me not carrying on a "discussion" because I keep citing other sources. I should just respond with one single sentence stating my belief as fact, right?
