the consequences of inflation aren't imaginary. It's in the same way if you think God's not real you can make that case but that doesn't mean the people who died for impiety are actually still alive. Because the people who manipulate the economy on top can have their worst debts bailed out and constantly have more investments, inflation doesn't affect them negatively, but actually positively because they can pay off loans easier with increased cash flow compared to when the loan taken. So, because the mechanisms at the top are now increasing their intake of cash without returning more cash to the economy, increased prices only target those at the bottom of the economy. This could be manipulated by raising the minimum wage, forcing money to move down from the top to the bottom, or by fixing prices, mitigating the effects of inflation. However, both of those result in lower profits(not none or negative, but lower) for those at the top, and they finance campaigns, so the state will not act against those interests and will allow inflation to hurt only the bottom.

Okay but I would genuinely like to hear your view on this, so if you decide to keep posting, I will certainly read.
