Dialog 2

Teddy                   : You know, I think a lot of the problems this country faces come from inflation

Ellen                     : Well, i’m not sure that I agree with u. It seems to me that inflation is only one of our problems. What about unemployment?

Gita                      : You know, I think Ellen may be on to something there. Unemployment is a big problem.

Teddy                   : I’m sorry but I have to disagree. Unemployment is an effect of inflation.
