Research "Modern Monetary Theory" if you want a real head-scratcher.<br>

Economically speaking, inflation is caused by demand/supply
shocks & printing money.

<li>having restricted supply,</li>

<div>Coming out of COVID we have the trifecta... so
greed doesn't really factor into it because you always
have greed in good economies and bad economies. I
won't get into the politics of why, just a 2-second
economics lesson. <br>

Incidentally my Econ 1 professor was Laura Tyson, who
was President Clinton's Chief Economic Advisor. I got
an A in her class 👍. If you can believe it I also
had Janet Yellen, Secretary of the Treasury in
business school, reference point #3 above 😉</div>
