Description:

Who says economics has to be all about numbers? Take a trip back in time with the Benchmark crew to the early 1980s, when double-digit inflation was such a scourge that it inspired a lyric in the hip-hop classic "The Message."

Then Alice Rivlin, a former Fed vice chair, gives perspective on inflation from her decades in the economic-policy world.
