Not enough.

You will soon see reports that the answer to the huge inflation in Asia and now also coming to Europe (not only oil) will be to increase interest rates from where they are now. This will of course end Fionnula's "not like the 90s story" but it will lead to unemployment. Expect a lot of "hard decision" and "long term" blah blah to soften the public to the fact that in the interests of everyone, interest rates will have to go up.
