Right it’s not normal
Not naturally occurring
To inflate means to like expand or get bigger
In this case we are talking about the money supply
So when they double the amount of dollars out there in existence, that’s why everything cost twice as much
Governments and banks are made up of and run by people
For example
Jerome Powell can create money without having to work for it
Start putting names and faces of those responsible for debasing the currency
Ask why 1000 bucks from 5 years ago will only get you about 500 dollars worth of stuff today
It’s because they are stealing
Intentionally and on purpose
They literally have an inflation target.
100%, people forget sometime
